Percy's P.O.V

   Soon after Gally ran off Teresa started to stir. "Uggghh," She said, while she rolled over and sat up. "It's alive!" I joked, grinning. All she did was squint at me, obviously not finding my joke very funny. I hadn't really had the chance to talk to her very much, though her and Thomas seemed pretty close, if you know what I mean. They both like each other, and even I can see that, and Annabeth doesn't call me seaweed brain for no reason.

   "Here," Annabeth said while holding out her hand for Teresa to take. Teresa took her hand, but she wasn't looking very happy. Now that I think about it, Thomas and Teresa aren't even looking at each other. Guess they had an argument or something. After what felt like minutes Thomas finally spoke, "Look, Teresa. I'm sorry about earlier, whatever I did to make you mad, I would really like to talk about it." He looked over at me and I got the message.

   "Come on Annabeth, I think that that one kid is going to start serving some kind of dinner soon, might as well be a little early right?" I asked while grabbing her arm. "I think that's a great idea," she said after sneaking a glance at Teresa and Thomas. As we walked off I could see the two of them exchanging some words, and all I have to say is that I'm glad we got out of there in time.

   I really was feeling hungry, so the sooner I could find the food the better. This was our third day here, and it was going pretty well if you ask me, aside from the whole Teresa/Thomas thing. I really didn't understand how there had been fifty new campers at Camo Half-blood this week though. There had already been twenty new campers by the time we left, so that's thirty in just three days!

   That's when I smelled it. Barbeque. I grabbed Annabeth's hand once again and sprinted towards the little area that was set up with tables, seeing that some of the gladers were handing out plates of food to everybody. I walked up to the line, gaining a few stares, then I noticed that they were looking between me and Gally, who was seated by himself. I almost felt bad for him. Almost.

   "Here." I grabbed the plate from the boy who was handing out food and waited for Annabeth before we sat down at a table by ourselves. "I feel bad that we can't burn some food for our parents, but everyone already thinks that we are weird enough, if we start burning the food they are giving us...yeah, let's no do that," Annabeth said, laughing at the grin on my face.

   "Mmmm," I muttered after stuffing my face full of the food on my plate. "I wonder if they give out seconds here," Annabeth said after taking a bite. "Probably not, considering their..situation," I said laughing at her. "Look." I looked where Annabeth was pointing to see Thomas and Teresa, hand in hand, coming to sit with us.

   I was glad that they had made up, and they looked happy together. "Hi guys," Thomas said while sitting down next to me, while Teresa sat next to Annabeth across the table. "Sorry about my mood earlier, I was just...frustrated I guess," Teresa said, as a small smile graced her lips.

   "I'm glad that you two seem much happier," Annabeth said raising her eyebrows. The two of them turned a bright red, then Thomas changed the subject. "So Percy, I was wondering if you wanted to go running with me tomorrow, in the maze I mean," Thomas explained, still blushing a bit from Annabeth's comment. "I think that would be a great Idea." I looked over at Annabeth, confused. "How so?" She looked at me for a second before explaining, "I want to figure out as much information as possible, and if that means running around in the maze, then so be it."

   It Made since. "Okay, so what time do we start?" I asked Thomas, determined to figure out at least something about the labyrinth situation. "We should plan for about seven am. The maze will start to open around that time so we need to be ready to go as soon as possible," He explained to me. "Alright, so what about breakfast?" His serious face morphed into one of amusement.

   "I just don't understand you sometimes Percy, no offence." I laughed with Thomas saying, "I don't understand myself half the time." Annabeth and Teresa were also talking about something, but I wasn't listening to them, though they seemed to be getting along alright. "So, can you spar a little bit with me before I'm too tired to do anything," Thomas asked me looking ready. "Only for a little while though," I said while nodding. "We are going to go practice for a little bit, see you later," I said to the girls while I stood up followed Thomas over to the open field.

   That's how the rest of our night went, me showing Thomas some simple moves with a sword, him learning as much as possible. After about an hour of that we were both exhausted so we finally stopped and headed off to sleep, ready for the next day that was going to be full of running around in the labyrinth. Yay.

Hi guys! So if any of you are at all interested in anime (Attack on Titan in particular) then I would really appreciate if you would check out my Attack on Titan story called "Teleported Into Attack on Titan!?" It follows two girls who randomly get thrown into the Attack on Titan universe, and I would love it if you would give it a chance.

Anyways, I hope that you enjoyed this chapter and thank you all so much for reading this.

Yours In demigodishness, and all that. Peace out!
