Troubled Olympians

Train falls of its tracks

"Nico!" Thalia called after math class that day. She hadn't talked to him since the kiss, and he stopped sitting near her at lunch. Needless to say, she was getting a bit tired of this game. "Nico!" She tried again. However, it was no use. He pretended not to hear her. Thalia caught up to him, and pulled him into the custodian closet.

"What do you want?" He muttered, refusing to look her in the eyes.

"You're avoiding me." Thalia said boldly.

"Am I?" He muttered.

"Yes! Yes you are, you know that!" Thalia pointed out, folding her arms. "Look, if you don't like me, just tell me!"

"Its not that." Nico sighed.

"Then?"

"Thalia...I really like you...but, you're a hunter." Nico explained. Thalia knew he was going to say that.

"Not anymore..." She mumbled.

"What do you mean?"

"Nico...I...kinda lost my virginity..." She muttered.

"You mean...you had sex?" Nico whispered, looking hurt.

"No, I just ate a full packet of Skittles! Yes I had sex! But...I was forced to."

"You mean...you got raped!?" Nico asked, looking ready to kill.

"Something like that, yes." Thalia muttered.

"Does Artemis know?"

"Yeah. She's alright though."

"Then..." Nico began to blush feriously "You wanna go out?"

"I'd be honoured to."

"I'm really glad you're helping us, Luke." Katie said, watching Hermes do his computer whiz stuff.

"Yeah, I'm getting real tired of getting dumped every other day. Who'd hate our relationship so much?" Travis wondered.

"Well, we're about to find out..." Hermes muttered. Actually, Hermes was just typing and doing random stuff, not making any effort to find out who was hacking Katie's facebook, considering it was him and Demeter. The plan was, to pretend to do stuff, and tell them that he failed, and it was very complicated computer science. It really wasn't, but they didn't need to know that.

"I wonder how Thalia's doing..." Katie mused.

"She's in a good place, Luna's helping her loads." Hermes replied, not taking his eyes off the screen.

"What are we going to do? I mean the bastard could be anywhere." Travis pointed out.

"Well, Thalia bumped into him on her way home in some alley way. His hangout place is probably somewhere around there." Katie said.

"I can't wait to see what Percy and Nico to do him." Travis snickered.

"They'd feed him to gorgons, that's what." Katie grinned.

As the two demigods were talking, Hermes decided it was time to abort the mission.

"Guys..." Hermes said slowly, his best acting in the works.

"Yeah?" Katie asked.

"I can't do it...this is so much harder than I thought."

"Well, that's sucktastic." Travis pouted.

"Well, if you ever get a break-up message over facebook, it's not real." Katie said, giving Travis a kiss on the cheek. "I love you, Travis."

"Yeah...uh, I love you too." Travis blushed.

Hermes leaned back and grinned. That's the last time he'd get involved with Demeter's plans.

-Troubled Olympians-

Poseidon was sitting in Science, listening to the teacher drone on about Helium and Phosphore. He had no idea how this interests Athena, or anyone, but it didn't seem like he had much of a choice, learning about it. Athena, Athena, Athena. The only name that filled Poseidon's brain. She was perfect in everyway. He didn't care about his wife, after all he wouldn't see her for another month. And he had Athena to entertain him...but not in a sexual way, of course. A crumpled up piece of paper appeared on his desk. Yawning, Poseidon unfolded the note.

Poseidon,

You and I both know that this can't last. My father would be furious, and you're married. Please, I think this needs to end before we go back. There's only a month left of the school year. It's time we end this now. Listen to Girl at Home by Taylor Swift if you still don't understand. I'm Sorry.

-Athena

It took Poseidon a few minutes to process the message. He just got dumped. Poseidon wasn't sure if he should be angry, or sad. She wouldn't even try! Gods, she's so uptight! She thinks that everything needs to be logical for the world to work! And gods forbid something illogical happens! This is why they could never work! Not because of his wife, or because of Zeus. It's because she's an uptight, intelligent little brat! She has to ruin everything! She was willing to throw away everything they had! And for what? For Zeus? For her reputation? It didn't even matter, Poseidon was furious. If Athena was done with him, then fine! He was done with her.
