Bella's POV

I decided to scare the Cullen's. I knew that they were watching me and Percy. He splashed me with a big wave, and I went under the water. The mermaids and water nymphs are my friends, so I went and played with the little ones. Thy kind of look up to the daughter of the sea god. I can't imagine why (sarcasm). I saw Edward try to come and find me. He looked like he was gonna drag me back up, but I was too happy. I love playing with the baby water beings. He then left and went back to the shore. To make sure he was gone, I waited 10 minutes. Then I made my way back to dry land. I started looking around for my clothes, but I was met with a note instead.
'Perhaps you're looking for something Bella. If you want them back you have to beg for it. You know where to find us.
-T and C S'
The Stoll brothers! I should've known it was them!
"IM GONNA KILL YOU TWO!" I yelled so loud that anybody in the valley could hear us.
I heard two deep laughs from across camp. I didn't care that I was still in my swimsuit. I stomped over to the Hermes cabin. I slammed the door open.
"STOLLS!"
They saw me and actually squeaked in terror like the rest of their cabin did. They should be scared. I smile my best 'do what I want or I'll kill you in your sleep' smile. Travis might have been bigger and older than me, but he pointed to the closet where I found my clothes. I put them on and instantly changed back to being happy. I smiled innocently and left, but before I shut the door, my smile turned evil and I said,
"Tonight, sleep with one eye open" then I left. I braced myself and headed back to my cabin. I was prepared for Percy to tickle me, but I didn't expect all of our friends to tickle me as well.
"No! N-no!... Stop it!" I shouted at them between giggles.
The Cullen's must've thought that I was being murdered or something, because they came running out of their rooms, and crouched in a protective way around me.
"Oh for gods sake! I'm fine, I'm being tickled!"
They looked embarrassed. I got up and went over to Leo.
"Never tickle me. Ok?"
He nodded nervously, and I smiled and kissed him. His nervous face went instantly to a happy one. I looked over at the Cullen's, and I noticed that Edward had a pained expression on his face. After the fiasco had ended, the vamps each went back to their rooms. With my demigod senses, I heard Edward say to Carlisle that they needed to leave because he couldn't control himself. I smiled and went back into my room. My friends all went back to their own cabins, except for Annabeth, who stayed with Percy.

Us four just chilled out until dinner. When the horn sounded, I grabbed Leo's hand and ran to the pavilion.
"Jeez, Iz! You can get there after the horn and still get food!" Leo chuckled
"I know, but I'm starving!"
We reached the Pavilion, he kissed my cheek, and we sat down at the Poseidon table.

Usually, children from different gods sit at the table for their parent, but Chiron knew that me Percy and Annabeth had to be with those who make us happy. My person is Leo, and Percy's is Annabeth. We have to be around them because only they and each other can calm us down.  (Totally made up btw) We get glimpses of our memories in Tartarus, I had to watch my brother and one of my best friends being tortured at the same time as I was. Annabeth fell in, because of a web wrapped around her foot, Percy tried to save her and got dragged in, and I jumped in after them, thinking that 3 is better than 2. Chiron was worried about sending me to Forks because he didn't know if I could handle it, especially if I was away from Leo, Percy and Annabeth. I promised him that I could do it, and I did, except I had quite a few nightmares. I must've scared the Hades out of the Cullen's. Wait ugh, dam ADHD making me go on and on about something.

Annabeth and Percy joined us a few minutes later. They were holding hands, I looked over to the Apollo table and locked eyes with Will. He smiled at me and wrapped his arms around Nico, who blushed furiously. Will is one of my best friends. I smiled back at him. My smile faded when I saw the Cullen's walk in.

Most of the campers had been there when I had almost killed Edward. I saw Nico grumble something about his dad and paperwork and I chuckled. Since I was still looking at the Cullen's, they thought that I was smiling at them. They came and sat down with us. To my delight, Edward sat down next to me (note the sarcasm). He leaned close to me and whispered in my ear that he needed to talk to me. I ignored him, but I would meet him anyway. I went and piled my plate with lots of food, I scraped the best bits into the fire. I smiled and headed back to the table. Percy laughed when he saw my full plate.
"Izzy, you know you're supposed to give some to Dad right?"
"Shut up seaweed brain! I already did!" He chuckled again. My smile disappeared when Alice piped up,
"Why do you call her Izzy? She hates it"
"Actually she doesn't hate it, she hates when we call her little sister or little cousin" Percy piped up.
"Percy! You're younger than me! Why do you get to call me 'little sister'!"
"Iza, you're only older by about 3 minutes!"
I shrugged and Carlisle then said something,
"Wait, this table says Poseidon. You two shouldn't be here!"
I rolled my eyes at him, he was probably trying to make them go away so that Edward could talk to me.
"Well you see Carlisle, Leo is my Happy Person"
"What's a happy person?" Esme spoke softly,
"Well, a happy person is somebody very close to you, who can calm you down and make you forget" Percy explained, happy to talk to the only one out of the family that I actually liked.
"Make you forget what?" Jasper kind of surprised me a bit when he spoke, he hadn't said anything since he got here.
"Leo makes me forget the times when we fell into Tartarus, he soothes me from my nightmares and stops me from going insane!"
"What happened in this Tarteus place that could've been so bad, and who's we?" The blonde bitch spoke again.
"Tartarus is a horrible place. I was tortured by the monsters we've killed. I was tortured, and forced to watch my brother and one of my best friends, his girlfriend, being tortured for 4 months! Our cousin, Nico went through by himself and survived. More or less." By the time I had finished talking, they all looked at me and Percy with astonished looks on their faces, they then glanced at Nico with uneasy expressions.
"So when you would scream in your sleep and yell things like stop or not them, and I couldn't calm you down, you were having nightmares about that place?" Edward asked, worry lacing his words.
"Correct Penny Head!" I taunted,
By now, I had edged closer and closer to Leo. I was coming close to having an attack. He wrapped his arms around me and mumbled something into the back of my head before kissing it. Edward growled lowly when he saw us, it was meant to be to quiet for us to hear, but with our enhanced senses, I did.
"Edward knock it off"
"How did you hear me?"
"Demigods have enhanced senses"
As I was explaining this to him, I heard a quiet whimper come from Percy. Oh gods! He's having another attack!
"No no no! Percy! Stop thinking about it, look I'm fine see!" I had got out of Leo's arms easily and rushed to my brother.
I was shaking him and trying to make him stop. It wasn't working. Annie decided to step in. She moved and sat on Percy's knee. Which was kind of hard, because we were sitting at a picnic table. She wrapped her small arms around him and pulled him close. If the circumstances were any different, I would laugh at how awkward Annabeth looks trying to sit in his knee whilst sat at a picnic table. She knelt up, with either of her knees beside Percy, and kissed him on the lips. She then moved her arms from Percy's middle and wrapped them around his neck.

Chiron saw what was happening, and nodded at me. We had been excused. Nico and Will saw what was happening, and rushed over to help. Me, Annie, Will, Nico, and Leo were all carrying Percy. He was unable to walk by himself or even stand for that matter. We took him down to the beach (which thankfully wasn't that far away from the Pavilion) and sat him by the water. I was hoping that the water would stop him, but it didn't. Annabeth laid him down and straddled him. She gently sat down on his middle and leant over his face. Her usual face of happiness was replaced with one of panic and sadness. She leaned down and kissed Percy full on.

I saw Percy's arms twitch, and I knew that things would be okay. I knew that the Cullen's had been watching us, but I didn't care. The only on my mind had been my brother. Percy suddenly sat up and kissed Annie back. My current pose of a protective crouch crumbled and I fell into a sitting position. Leo came and sat behind me, he wrapped his arms around my waist and whispered soothing words into my ear to stop me from doing the same thing as my brother. I leant into my boyfriend, and relaxed. Percy was now back to normal (or as normal as he could get) and was cradling Beth. She had a relieved smile on her face and buried her head into his chest.

The Cullen's came over to us and had a distant hint of disgust on their faces.
"Isn't she like your niece or something?" Rosalie asked whilst pointing and Annabeth.
"Yeah, so?" I snapped
"If she's your niece then why was your brother making out with her?" Emmet question this time, with a disgusted face.
"Because Emmet in our camp, it doesn't matter who you love, or what gender, as long as you love them for them. Also pretty much as long as they're not from the same cabin as you, then you can date whoever you want"
He looked like a toddler who had just been told off. I chuckled and leaned further into Leo's chest.
"Bella, can I talk to you?" Of course, it was the mind raper who disturbed my peace.
