Clarke's POV
------------------
"Okay guys, what's our team name?" someone on our team asked. It was Sunday, 5:56 PM, time for capture the flag. Basically the most important time of the day. My team huddled at the starting line.
"I think we should be called the pink fluffy unicorns. Maybe the power puff girls." I said, trying to lighten the mood. Everyone was so serious. Jase, an Ares kid who was obsessed with capture the flag grinned.
"How about the 'power puff unicorns?" Jase asked
"Perfect." Every member of The Power Puff Unicorns grabbed a weapon, mine being my hands.

Leo Valdez, a kid who was one of the original seven, had this 'power' where he could shoot fire out of his hands. Everyone said it would be another 100 years before someone else with this power showed up, but I guess I was just to special to wait that long. I found out about that not everyone had this 'power' when I was about 6. It was about 7 months after Coach Hedge, Leo, Jason and Piper left for their quest.

I was in bunker nine and I making a motorcycle that runs on ice cream, don't ask. Tario, another Hephaestus kid, was helping me. The power went out and no one could see anything. Tario found a candle, and I expected him to light it with his hands. When he went looking for matches, I lit the candle. Tario was kinda freaked out, but we're cool now.
Anyway... Back to the power puff unicorns.

It was kinda dark out, being almost 6:00, so I grabbed a torch and wrapped my hands around the top, lighting it on fire.
"Okay Power Puff Unicorns! Time. To. Win!" Jase yelled into the night. I stifled a laugh as I vaguely heard the confused sounds of the other team before the gong sounded.
"For Narnia!" I yelled as the whole team charged into the forest.

15 hours later...

"Hey...Clarke? I mean, you're Clarke, right?" A tall blond kid walked by and fist pumped me. "Great job in capture the flag last night, you rocked it!"
I grinned. Ohhh! This was the cocky Apollo kid that got captured the second the gong sounded. And guess who rescued him? This girl! I walked over to the volleyball court and waited for Ari, my friend, to finish up.

"And look at that spike! Boom chick pow wow!" I grinned as Ari punched the ball into the ground, spraying sand all over the other team. Being a child of Aphrodite, Ari was gorgeous. Long tan legs, golden blond hair, green eyes. And I was... me. I had curly brown hair and dark brown eyes. My curls hung around my face, getting in the way all the time, so I usually tied it back with a bandana. I was short, but strong. I mean, don't really care how I look, but everyone else is taken aback when they learn I am friends with Ari.
"Go Eddy, go Eddy!" The rest of the Aphrodite girls where lined up on the bleachers cheering for the blond haired-blue eyed Ares boy everyone loved.
"Go Eddy, Go Eddy." I sarcastically muttered.
Needless to say, Ari's team won 23-2.

"You excited for tonight?" She asked, chugging a water bottle as she came off the court.
"Yup." I had no idea what on Hades she was talking about.
"Me too." Ari said as she wiped the sweat from her forehead.
"What's happening tonight?"
Ari smirked and rolled her eyes.
"You know how the new prophecy of seven was proclaimed last week?" She stopped walking and sat down on a stump.
"Yeah?"
"Well, they're reviling who the seven are. Usually they go on a quest, but the Oracle said she felt it last night and Chiron said he's going to announce it at campfire. I heard some Roman kids also got picked, so camp Jupiter is visiting."
"Oh. Well anyways, come on, I've got something to show you!" I sprung up from the stump and began walking on the gravel path.
"Where are we going?" Ari asked.
"Bunker nine. I'm working on something there, and I was hoping you'd try it out."
"As long as if it breaks I won't die, I'm in." She said, smiling.
"I can't guarantee anything!" I said, then took off sprinting into the forest.

Leo Valdez, another kid of Hephaestus, had found bunker nine a few years back. Bunker nine was an awesome jubilation of a mechanic shop and a forge, with tons of parts and tools. Tario and I built a snow cone machine and an ice cream machine since the Bunker got pretty hot in the summer.

"Wait up, Clarke!" I heard Ari sprinting right behind me. We stopped in a clearing. All my siblings were out side the of bunker, pointing in the sky. I picked up my pace, knowing that if something was exciting enough to make Hephaestus kids abandon on their machines, it has to be good. Either that, or it's extremely bad. Either way I wanted to see it.

An updated Αrgo II was floating above the trees. Leo Vadlez, Calypso, Annabeth Chase, Percy Jackson, Frank Zang, and Hazel Levesque were waving over the railing! All the Hephaestus kids started chopping down trees to make way for the giant ship.

"Percy Jackson is real? I thought he was a myth!" I heard someone say
" You're a myth, Frances!" Her friend replied.
"I know! But I meant.."

"Home sweet home." I heard Percy say as he swung from the ship.
