Us Against The World

Chapter 5

Cassie

Andi was going to try to explain her nightmares. Or so I thought. She stared off with startlingly blank eyes at a wall for like 10 minutes.

"Well," Andi started, "I am hungry."

"What, Andi, you just stared at the wall for like 10 minutes and all you come up with is I'm hungry?" I say almost yelling.

"Yeah," Andi mumbled back. She ducked as I went to playfully smack her. Sometimes she was really stupid. Percy is on the floor laughing and Nico is trying not to, I can see it.

" Hey, Cassie, do you think they have purple cookies here?" Andi asks me with her huge purple eyes full of curiosity. She is so childish for a 14 year old.

" Can we eat? I can see Andi starving through the mask of I don't give a shit," I say looking at Percy.

"Yeah, let's go to the pavilion," He exclaimed and stared to walk away. I stare after him as does Andi.

"Are you coming?" He asks looking back. Then he probably realised Andi can't walk.

"Are you kidding me, dude? I can't walk I used to much energy," Andi cries exasperated.

"I'll carry her so Annabeth doesn't get mad," Nico says scooping Andi up.

"No I want a piggyback ride" she complained. He swung her around and onto his back skillfully. He takes off dead sprint.

"Let's go," Percy says, throwing me on his back and racing to catch up with Nico. We caught up and began racing. Nico suddenly disappeared and when we got to the pavilion they were standing there in the middle of the dining area.

"Dude, that's cheating!" Percy cries as he runs over. He sets me on the ground gently before rounding on Nico, who is standing there innocently with Andi on his back.

"Enough I'm hungry!" I hear Andi yell and Nico cringes. I don't blame him she yells loudly.

"Okay enough," I say as I sit with the Hermes children at the cabin table. It was crowded but I managed. Halfway through Andi seeking a package of purple cookies from Dionysius, a glowing caudus appears above her head. She's been claimed by Hermes.

"Damnit, I was just about to get the purple cookies, too!" she yells at the sky. A glowing lighting bolt formed above my head. I have been claimed by Zeus. I was told to go to the Zeus cabin table. I walked over and sat next to a blond haired boy and a black haired girl.

"I am Cassiopeia, call me Cassie" I say sitting down.

"I am Jason and that's Thalia " Jason says looking at me. I reach up and run a hand through my hair. I was bored already. That's when Andi threw mashed potatoes at a Aphrodite camper and an all out food war started. Only Andi could cause mass chaos in minutes of being in a place. Then I noticed she wasn't there anymore. There were no purple cookies either. God, now what has she done? The last thing I can remember is thinking that before being pelted with limes.
