Jason literally spit out his milk, "They have chocolate milk?"

People around our table looked at him very confused, Katie and the Stolls laughed hard. I face palmed, "Really?"

"Hey! Iv'e never been to a school before, and at camp Jupiter, we don't have chocolate milk," he defended like a whiny baby.

"Seriously," Piper interrupted, "is that camp trying to make you hermits?"

Jason groaned, "I want to try it!" 

Conner stood up and ran to the vending machine, Travis wiped the tears from his eyes. I looked around our empty table, it was only me, Jason, Piper, Stolls and Katie. Clarisse, Nico and Will stayed home with Annabeth and Percy just as an extra precaution. Lady Artemis was there as well, speaking of her. . . .

"Hey," I began, switching to Greek, "why do you think Artemis took Percy and Annabeth aside?"

In a hushed tone Travis replied, "I think it has something to do with whatever Percy has. He seriously is stressed about  it."

Katie nodded, Piper chimed in, "Guys, she's looking at us."

We all turned to miss Shannon, who stared at us with a sour look. Conner returned and saw what was happening.

"If she is a monster, then now she knows what is happening," Piper said.

Jason gasped, "Shict, she's coming over. Run!"

We all stood up, Conner threw Jason a yahoo bottle. Katie got pulled around by Travis as they took off down the hallway. Piper and I trailed after Jason as Conner ran after Travis and Katie. Just then, the lovely jocks Jacob and Marley stepped in font of us. 

"Hey girl," Marley said to Piper, "Want me to pick you up at 7?"

"Gomi Ochi!" she yelled, miss Shannon grabbed my shoulder and I yelped.

Jason turned with a mild look in his eyes, "What?"

"You three are not supposed to run in the halls, you can come to detention with me," she said.

I cussed and followed her, only to look back to see Jacob and Marley smirking at each other.

"Jason," I started in Greek, "I think there are 3." 

Miss Shannon turned around to look at me, "3 of what now?"

"3 of you," I said and banged my knee into her shin, Piper and Jason quickly sprung into a run, now headed in the direction of Conner, Travis and Katie. Katie's head poked out around the corner, I motioned for her to go.

"Just another demigod day!" Jason called cheerfully. 

Katie shook her head and whipped off her bracelet which sprung into a staff. I started to run as well, Jacob and Marley busted into a run after me, imagine that, jocks chasing after a little Latino elf.

"Just go!" I yelled to my friends as I pulled out my tool belt and wrapped it around my waist. I pulled out some screws and began to fiddle with them, if I could make some sort of getaway device or something to call Argus on, then we could just leave the school and not put the other 5 at home in danger.

Jason slowed down, he flipped his coin and it sprung into a long spear, "Should I javelin them?"

"No!" Piper and Katie yelled, "We're in school! If they explode into dust then the freaking police will be called!"

Conner and Travis sopped at a door, they gave each other 'the look.' They slipped outside the doors into the auditorium, Katie turned around and stood in the door way. Piper and Jason caught up and did as so, I joined them just as the 3 monsters rounded the corner. 

"Oh no! We're locked!" I said dramatically. 

"Oh, we don't have our weapons!" Jason said and tried to 'open' the door for fake effect. 

Piper sighed and put her hands in the air, "Woe is I."

Katie turned around and tried not to laugh, which was OK because she looked like she was crying. She dropped her spear and called out, "I surrender! Mercy please!"

Jason cradled his yahoo, I turned around too.

Mrs. Shannon cackled, "Fine. I will let you go, but only if you tell me where that ratchet prince lives!"

'Prince?' I mouthed to Jason.

He mouthed back to me, 'Percy.'

I nodded, "I don't know! Spare me please!"

"Haha! No," she replied and lunged at us.

Marley and Jacob followed, Katie yelled out, "Now!" and stepped out of the way with the rest of us. The doors flung open, the three monsters fell in. Travis and Conner quickly swung around the door and slammed it, Conner stuck a broom in her face. 

"Get her now!" Travis yelled.

Katie and Jason both threw their spears at them, Marley and Mrs. Shannon dispersed. Jason grabbed Jacob and slammed him against the wall.

"Why do you need Percy?" Jason said aggressively, "Pipes, hold my milk!"

She took it from him, a giggle escaped her lips, "Can I take a sip?"

"Yeah," he answered, "Answer my question!"

"Pfft, you really don't know anything, do you?" Jacob said, "I mean like, I know you demigods are stupid, but I didn't think this stupid!"

He laughed, Jason looked at Piper. She shrugged and took another sip, "He crazy."

"Did Triton send you?" Jason asked.

"That's king Triton to you, you pleb," Jacob snarled, "and yes! He wanted his dearest brother."

"Oh, how kind of him," I replied sarcastically.

"I know right?" Jacob replied in a calm voice.

Travis turned to Conner, "And he says we're dumb."

"He knows too much," I said, "Take him out!"

Piper pulled her dagger out of her pocket, she handed me the chocolate milk and stalked over to Jacob. She then stabbed him in the neck causing him to burst into little fairies of golden dust.

Jason took the milk from me and sipped it, "Tastes good."

We heard little clicks of heels, "You all have detention!"

We ran into the theater before whoever that was could catch us. I went back to making something to contact Argus with. Piper ran out backstage, we all followed suit.

"Well, I guess we shouldn't of gone to school," Travis said.

Katie nodded, "Yeah, we should of been lazy. Couldn't it of been easier to just start driving to camp?"

"It's only 10 hours," Piper said.

"Yeah," I interjected, "and only 1 hour if we just fly with lady Artemis. Easier to just wait it out."

Jason sipped his milk as we left the school, I lit the device up. It sent a message in Greek into the sky, it said 'Argus now!' He would probably be here soon. For safety reasons, we started to jog down the street towards our apartments.
