  Before leaving the arena I picked up a wicked celestial bronze sword with cool engravings.  I kept the archery set I previously picked out.  I may or may not have almost stepped on Fido when I asked Jesse, "So, what weapon do you want?"  "Hold on a sec!"  She plopped down and started asking Leo for random tools.  Fido was tinkered with for more than his own good that day.  About 30 minutes later she jumped up her braid still in tact and not a single drop of grease on her.  "Watch this!"  She pressed a button on Fido's back and he transformed into a sword covered in Greek fire.  Leo looked at her as if he was her Dad after she taught herself to ride a bike.  "That is incredible craftsmanship!"  He walked towards Jesse and I swear they were talking gibberish.  Just then a glowing orange flame with tools crossed in the middle appeared over Jesse's head.  In the middle was a pink dove.  "Jesse McLean, daughter of Hephaestus, legacy of Aphrodite."  Nico led the bow and I was amazed two thirds of us were claimed!  This gave me an idea.  I knew I was related to Athena for some reason.  We had all gotten claimed because of choosing a weapon.  People should make a bigger deal about this.  Anyway, I turned and walked towards Angel, who was at the weapons table.  I asked her what weapon she wanted and she went on a three hour rampage about which was better in battle, a spear or a dagger.  She then said this, "I thought about stealing all of them."  I mentally slapped her and she decided on the spear.  After this a glowing gray owl on an olive branch appeared over her head and inside was a yellow caduceus.  Nico began his shpeel, "Angel Quinn, daughter of Athena, legacy of Hermes."

  It was just me, Angel, and Jesse sitting under a tree when I realized that Angel is now my great aunt, at one point Hephaestus proposed to Athena so Jesse is like my step great aunt, but if thing work out the way they're supposed to with Leo she can become my sister in law...  Holy Hades!  I cupped my mouth not realizing before hand that I said all of this out loud.  Let alone in song format.  Jesse and Angel giggled but they already knew I liked him.  I mean who seriously wouldn't?  After that we headed to the campfire and sat with our respective cabins.  Sure it was weird to be away from my friends but who knew I could sing in ancient Greek?  I went to bed happy.  My life was to perfect.
