Autumn's Pov

Oliver proposed to fly us to Virginia Beach but I'm not very comfortable in the air so when he was controlling the wind towards me I quickly backed away.

"What's wrong Autumn?" Sydney asked.
"Um well I'm not very comfortable flying so can I just meet you guys there?" I asked embarrassed.
"Fine but I'm coming with you!" Percy said signaling Oliver to let him back down.
"How are you going to keep up with her?" Sydney asked.
"I know how now go we'll meet you there" I said shooing them.
"Ok be careful" Tyson yelled at us. We both waived goodbye as we saw they fly away.
"Ok so how am I going to keep up with you?" He asked me.
"It's easy I did this with Karina" I said grabbing his hand and interlocked my fingers with his.
"Ready?" I looked at him and he nodded and we started to run, I was leading him because I was used to this but he would probably hit a tree or trip over a rock. I looked at him and saw that he had a smile on his face and was admiring the view. I laughed and started to run faster for the fun of it and because we had to get there soon.
When we got there we didn't see Oliver, Sydney or Tyson anywere. We decided to go shop for new clothes because they were covered in dirt and were ripped. We headed for target and when we arrived they're Percy went into the men's section and I went into my section. I found a gray sweater that says "make love", a pair of black skinny jeans, black sneakers and a hat. I went to see how Percy was doing and when we were about to go in the changing cabin we saw Sydney,Tyson and Oliver. Behind them was Karina,Valentine and Annabeth.

"How did they get here!?"I asked them when they came up to us.
"They came looking for u" Oliver explained how he found them in the sky ridding a Pegasus.
"We found Lukas yacht but the only way to get in is by going to his teenage ball" Sydney added.
"Well then I guess we go shopping for dresses!!" Sydney exclaimed pulling me and Annabeth over to the dresses.
"Help me!" I mouthed to the guys. They started to laugh and walked away leaving me, Karina and Annabeth in hell. Sydney took a strapless purple that had little flowers that would form the high part of the dress, the low part was simple but elegant, she took black sparkle lying high heels She took out a strapless aquamarine dress for Annabeth. It had a line of gold sparkles in the middle and it curled on the way down, she handed her a pair of sparkly gold high heels. Karina choose a bloody red strapless dress that was simple yet elegant, she took a pair of medium heel golden glitter shoes. When it was my turn it took forever to find a dress that would go with my hair color. We finally found one that was mint color and had sparkles around it and was a bit curled on the way down. When Sydney handed me a pair of high heels I looked at her with a surprised look.

"Noo way!! You got me to choose a dress so do not push ur luck" I said taking out a pair of ballet flats that were silver and covered in sparkles, it had a small bow on the tip. We all went to the see how the guys were doing, there was only Tyson who still had some mist on, it made him look normal to humans, that was searching for a suit.

"Sydney can you help Tyson pick a suit please" Oliver asked her.
"Sure go try your clothes on we'll meet you there" she said searching threw the suits.
Percy came up to me and was holding a black, a white vest and a black bow tie.
"This will probably be the first time I will see you in a dress" he said smiling.
"And last time"I said heading into my stall. When I was done I came out and saw Karina smiling and Valentine's mouth drop open.
"Don't worry I won't be wearing another dress for the rest of my life!" I said rolling my eyes at him. When I looked at myself in the mirror I didn't recognize myself at all, my hair was on my left side and it was placed perfectly, my lips were a soft pink and the some green was forming around the black circle of my eye. When Percy came out he had the same reaction as everyone else, he was stunned that I was actually wearing a dress. I have to admit Percy looked really good in a tux!!
"I put a spell on my clothes so when I wish to change into regular clothes I can" I said smiling at my accomplishment. I snapped my finger and a beam of moonlight appeared and when it faded I was in the clothes I found before. I felt myself again and it felt good, I saw Percy. Valentin and Karina laughing. I snapped my fingers again and was in my dress once again. I saw Krystal come in laughing with the other blondes.
"Great Krystal is here" I said sarcastically. When she saw me she started to laugh at me.
"Wow Autumn you actually look a bit less ugly than usual!" She said crossing her arms and smiled.
I clenched my fist and felt my anger coming up but this time I let it put instead of keeping it in.
"You know what Krystal, do you really think I care?! Because each time you say a mean thing it's just going to hurt you because I'm already picturing you in a lonely apartment, eating ice cream and watching chic flicks with you 29 cats because you don't have anymore friends so go ahead have fun while it last because if I remember you already have a cat right!? See it already started!" I said smiling at my remark. I saw Percy who was smiling at me, he came next to me and took my hand.
"Pfff what ever" she said walking away from us, there was only one who followed her.
"Raven come on" she yelled annoyed.
"No Autumn is right u always call me dum and worthless. U made me put a blond wig on because my hair isn't pretty enough" she yelled. She took off the wig to let her straight long black hair fall freely.
"Fine go join the losers see if I care" she said walking away.
"Your soo lucky I'm not aloud to call the dead" she mumbled. I think I'm the only one who heard her because they just started at Krystal. Raven turned around to face me.
"Autumn I'm so sorry for all the pain she caused you, I always felt bad but I was to afraid to speak up until now" she said looking away, I saw a tear roll down her face.
"Raven I'm glad you stood up for yourself and you look like a awesome person but I just want to ask you something"I said giving her a warm smile. Her light blue eyes looked up at mine.
"Raven are you a demigod?" I asked her and it took her by surprise.
"Daughter of Hades at your service!" She smiled.
"Would you like to join us on a quest Raven?" I smiled.
"I would love to but does this mean I have to wear a dress?" She asked us.
"Yes but I put a spell on all of you so when you snap your fingers you'll be in your everyday clothes!" I said excitedly.
"Ok give me a second" she ran to the dresses and came back with a blue, green and beige dress that had a peacock motif on it. She tried it on and she looked beautiful with out all the pink! She had beige ballet flats and a necklace with a two sided sword pendant on it. After paying for our clothes we headed for the ball. Percy took my hand and lead me in a corner before entering the boat.
"Ok Luke is probably going to ask us to join him if we ever get captured. I want you to say yes and find out what you can about the Golden Fleece and about Grover" he said. I looked in is sea green eyes and nodded. He kissed me on the lips intensely and I kissed him back putting my arms around his neck and he put his around my waist. We both smiled when we parted, when we arrived on the boat we saw everyone being grabbed by a big guy. I felt a pair of arms wrap around me and pulled me away from Percy who was being led to the others. I struggled but I could break away from his grip. I gave up and was led to Luke with the others next to me, they let us go but still keep an arm on ours.
"I knew you would come! Now you must be wondering why I'm after the Golden Fleece as well?" He said grinning to himself. "Well I'll be using it to bring Kronos back to life" he said letting out a evil laugh. "Our parents have been ruling for long enough it's our turn now" he added.
"So who wants to join the winning team?!" He looked at us. I looked at Percy and saw him nod. I raised my free hand, everyone gasped so did Percy but only to play along.
"Autumn you will have to swear your alliance to Kronos"he said. He was about to put hid arm around my shoulder but I walked a bit farther so he wouldn't touch me. When he told what to say I repeated but I crossed my fingers behind my back until the very last word. I snapped my fingers and I was in my normal comfy clothes, everyone else turned into they're normal clothes too. I didn't get a very good look at what it was because they we're taken away by the big buff people.
