Helllooooo fellow demigods!
So sorry about being a bit late!
Anyways, I’ve got a question for you guysssss!
Have any of you EVER made this mistake?
Okay, so. You’re in Downtown Disney and the sun is really bright so any words you see are a bit blurry.
You look up, see that high, blue-black tower, (You know, House of Blues) and start FREAKING OUT?
Why, you ask?
WELL, when I looked up at it, I thought that it said House of Hades.
Therefore, I freaked out.
*facepalm* *whispers* I’m so dumb.
WELLL that’s enough of that!
Again, thanks to all who reviewed, your suggestions help me a LOT.
And happy reading!

Reyna
When she woke up, the beach in front of her was drenched with light. It must be really late in the morning; she thought as she got up and went to Coach. He was almost done putting everything up. Meaning he'd probably woken up five minutes before her.
"I'll go and check the perimeters," he said. Why do you need to check the perimeters? She bit back the question and continued to listen. "Don't walk out of this cave."
She felt her eyes narrow a bit. "Since when do I take orders from you?"
He looked at her and scowled. "Since I'm the adult here!" He has a point. But, gods, why does he have to yell all the time?
He started trotting-walking-galloping… what do you call a running satyr?-to the cave mouth. Before he went into the jungle-like area in front of the beach, he turned around. "Don't. Move." Then the foliage swallowed him whole. Please. Like I'm going to walk out of here? I don't have anywhere to go to! She was suddenly aware of a sound behind her.
Breathing.
She whipped around, only to find di Angelo sleeping not far from her. He looked weird. The little curls at the ends of his hair stood up like baby bats wings. She walked over to him and crouched in front of him. Should I wake him up? She glanced outside. The sun was almost overhead, so it was probably around midday. She turned back to him.
"Nico". No answer. She repeated his name a little louder. Still no answer.
"Nico!"
Nothing. Huh. Heavy sleeper. Then an idea popped into her head. It was mean, but she was getting desperate.
"WAKE UP!"
He shot straight up. She felt a bit guilty about screaming in his ear, but it was probably the only way to get him up.
It was either that, or wait until Coach came in again and hit him with his baseball bat. Both were effective, but they hurt. Nico looked at her with clear annoyment.
"Ow".
Reyna shrugged. "You're a very heavy sleeper". He stood up and looked like he was about to say something, but Coach chose that moment to walk in. "Perimeters are checked!" He yelled. Nico looked over to him. "Then I guess we should get going". Reyna walked over to the Athena Parthenos and grabbed her piece of rope. She saw the dense rainforest one more time before the darkness swallowed her whole.
