Seventeen-year-old Gavin Hillstone is resigned to being miserable for the rest of his life. Left alone in the world after his parents died in a fire when he was four, he was placed in foster care, which for him meant ending up in an abusive home with an alcoholic adoptive father. Gavin’s only escape is in taking and creating images. His camera is his refuge from the unending torture and isolation of daily life in his “family.” Until he learns by accident that he isn’t alone in the world after all. His father’s parents are still alive and living in Washington DC. When he takes the plunge and travels 3,000 miles to find his grandparents, he learns that they—and he—are part of something much bigger, and more dangerous, than he could ever have imagined. Something that has always put his family at risk and that will now threaten his own life, while forever changing it. He learns that he is one of the last descendants of a small group of Photo Travelers—people who can travel through time and space through images. But his initial excitement turns to fear, when he soon discovers that he and his grandparents are being pursued by the fierce remnants of a radical European Photo Traveler cult, the Peace Hunters. What Gavin has, they want! His adventure will take him to past eras, like The Great Depression and the Salem Witch Trials. Gavin will have to discover who he really is and must make choices that spell the difference between life and death for himself, for the relatives he now knows and loves, and for the girl he will come to love. For Gavin, life will never be the same.

"Remind me again why I thought spending six weeks with a bunch of hyperactive, sweaty and supposedly 'musically gifted' kids was a good idea?" Bailey Cunningham has gone and taken the plunge - she's not only signed up for the job of a camp counselor at Triple Lakes Camp for Musically Gifted Children, but she's roped her best friend, Savannah, into it too. However, the pair really get more than they bargained for when they discover they'll be sharing their summer with not only the kids, but the guy who looks as if he's stepped out of an Abercrombie and Fitch catalog, the quirky brother, and the sugar-coated flautist who's way too sweet for her own good. In the midst of the madness, only one thing's for sure: Bailey knows absolutely nothing about music.

[ON INDEFINITE HIATUS] Percy, Annabeth, Piper, Jason, Hazel, Frank, and Leo are heading to Goode High School, where the girls are being stalked by guys and Jason is being stalked by a girl that's not backing away, Kylie. Yikes... And when Percy, Leo, and Frank are shunned out of the popular crowd, Percy forms a plan. A plan that could expel them all, or make things the way they're supposed to be. A crazy Percabeth + Jasper + Frazel (Poor Leo is all alone) High School story, of course with heaps of Leo-ness and trouble-making by Percy, this story will move you to a point of ROFLYHO (Rolling On the Floor Laughing Your Head Off). (Or maybe it's just me... yep, it's just me.) Prepare for randomness, confusion, and being locked in a room with Nico di Angelo as this story goes on. And who shall Leo end up with? Calypso or Reyna? Or shall he be destined forever to be the seventh wheel (which doesn't exist because nothing ever needs exactly six wheels unless it's a sexicycle or hexicycle or whatever you call a bicycle with six wheels)? This is the Seven's WORST nightmare: HIGH SCHOOL. EDIT (10/31/15) A lot of this stuff is not up-to-date. I started this story in the fall of 2012, right after The Mark of Athena came out. Therefore, a lot of the information is only correct up to arround MoA canon (which is why Leo is still single in a lot of the earlier chapters). Please do not flame because of incorrectly stated info!

Just a 'nice and friendly' game of truth or dare with our favorite Percy Jackson characters! (A/N I was 12 when I wrote this. People with high level brains and a respect for well written works, leave now. Everyone else: Come in for a laugh, cause were grammar and embelishment was lacking, humor is abuntant. )
