Percy Jackson Oneshots

Chapter 13: Cooking

Percy pulled out the tray of brownies from the oven and set them down on the counter to cool for a bit. He took of his apron and hung it on the back of his chair.

"Well that was fun. I haven't had the chance to cook anything in the longest time." Percy mused in his head and decided to take a quick nap in order to pass the time. He got out one of those old timers and and set it for 5 minutes,

Percy stretched and made his way out of the camp's kitchen. He placed his head down on one of the tables and was out like a light.

~~~~~

"Ooo... brownies!" Piper called and the rest of the seven entered the kitchen. They wanted to sneak a snack in before the harpies caught them.

"Don't mind if I do~" Leo hummed and bit into the chocolate brownie. He then proceeded to moan as he chewed and tried to reach for another one but Hazel smacked his hand away.

"Why?" he wined and tried to take one again but Annabeth smacked his hand with the book she was holding.

"Let the rest of us have some Leo! We also have to save some for Percy. I saw him taking a nap on one of the tables." Annabeth said.

The rest of the seven took a brownie which left 14 brownies left since there was 20 brownies to begin with. "Amazing! The chocolate chips are still melted! It's almost like someone made these a few minutes ago." Jason said brushing off the crumbs left on his shirt.

They heard and alarm ring and they all look at each other strangely. "Did any of you set an alarm?" Frank asked tilting his head to the side.

They heard footsteps coming closer and closer until the demigods knew that someone was just outside the door.

~~~~~~

Percy awoke to the annoying ring of the alarm he set. He took a few moments to collect himself and actually be sort of awake. He walked slowly to the kitchen and opened the door just to see the rest of the seven looking at him guilty.

"We were going to give you some! We promise." Hazel said immediately and looked disappointed in herself.

"What? I just came to see how my brownies were doing." Percy said more confused then ever when they all froze and looked at each other in shock.

"Wait... you made them?" Annabeth asked and looked shocked.

"Uh, ya." Percy said in a voice that just screamed "duh".

"Oops." Six of them said at the same time.

So the brownies up top are called:
