A/N: This is my first fanfic so be nice because it might not be very good.

The first couple of chapters are in Travis POV but then it will switch to Katie.

Disclaimer: unfortunately I don't own Percy Jackson, so enjoy!

Chapter 1

"KATIE KATIE KATIE KATIE KATIE KATIE KATIEEEEEE!" Travis yelled, banging repeatedly on the door. The door to the Demeter cabin flew open and Katie Gardner found her least favourite Stoll brother standing on the doorstep, his hand raised to knock again.

"What do you want Stoll?" She asked irritably.

"I'm bored," Travis whined, Katie just stared at him in disbelief for a second and then slammed the door in his face. He stepped back grinning to himself, nothing could cheer him up like annoying the goodie-goodie daughter of Demeter. But he was still soo bored!He glanced over at the sword fighting arena; even from here he could see Clarisse and Percy locked in battle. He sighed; if he was honest fighting wasn't really his strong point, of course he was awesome at everything else and he could still throw a decent punch, he just wasn't great with swords and crap like that. Chicken feathers and glue, that was more his style. Travis looked over at the archery range and saw Will Solace from Apollo shooting his arrows with impossible accuracy. Hmmm... rock climbing wall? No thanks; he didn't feel like being burned alive today. Children of Hermes didn't really have any special talents, well except stealing and pranking, but nothing all cool and heroic. Travis gave up on finding something to do and wondered back to his cabin. He stepped over the threshold and sighed; admittedly the cabin had never been clean exactly, but right now it looked like a bomb had hit it: The floor was obscured by a mountain of dirty clothes, discarded blueprints from abandoned pranks were tossed carelessly in the mess, there was a few forgotten tapes from the surveillance cameras they had installed around camp, oh and half mouldy a ham sandwich. As counsellor Travis decided it was his responsibility to do something about the mess.

"Holy Zeus!" He exclaimed, "you know, someone should really clean this up," Travis told them helpfully. His younger brother Connor was sitting at the desk, which was completely cluttered with crumpled bits of paper and blueprints, monitoring the feed from the camps surveillance cameras. There were two other campers in the cabin, Natasha and Karen, who were sat on the couch watching the Jeremy Kyle show; all the others were out at the activities. Connor spun around in his swivel chair to face his brother.

"Hey, what's up bro?" He asked, grinning his usual lopsided smile.

Travis groaned, "I'm so bored!" Connor thought for a moment then he reached into his pants pocket and pulled out a screwed up ball of paper.

"Here," he said tossing the paper to his brother. Travis frowned and curiously smoothed it out; it was a detailed diagram with notes and instructions scribbled around it.

"What's this?" He asked.

"I knew it! I knew he wasn't the father!" Natasha screamed at the TV. They stared at her for a second and she blushed a little, "sorry," she mumbled, "I was right though..."

"Anyway..." Travis continued.

Connor grinned, "it's just something I've been working on, it's not finished yet but I think it's pretty damn good!" Travis scanned the plan and he felt a slow smile appear on his face. It was better than good. It was downright ingenious. He had finally found something to do!

He looked up at his brother, "this is... this is...," the praise stuck in his throat, was Connor becoming a better prankster than him?

Connor smiled, "Thanks, I learned from the best bro!" he said; "now we just need to find the perfect victim but honestly I don't know if anybody deserves this."

Travis could feel his mind working rapidly as he started to form a plan. "Oh, I think I know just the girl..."

The younger Stoll frowned, "I hope you're not thinking about a certain daughter of Demeter? Because you know she would kill us, especially after last time. You know you can only prank a person so many times before they snap?" He warned.

Travis laughed, "That's what I'm counting on bro, makes it all more satisfying."

In the background they heard Karen shout, "You tell her Jeremy!" This time the brother's barely noticed they were so absorbed in the plan.

Connor sighed, "What is it with you two anyway? Why do you hate her so much?"

He shrugged, "Well Connor, it's a funny story actually; the lovely Katie-Kat was completely in love with me but sadly, I had to knock her back because I didn't want to risk our um... friendship. Anyway she didn't take it very well." Connor had listened to the story impressively keeping a straight face but he just couldn't keep it in anymore, he was laughing so hard he doubled over holding his sides.

"Katie Gardner... in love with... you," he choked out between fits of laughter, "yeah right. In your dreams bro, in your dreams."

Travis closed his eyes and sighed contentedly, "I sure hope so," he murmured, which just made Connor laugh even more. Travis hurled a pillow at his brother's face.

The two brothers stayed up all night excitedly plotting the ultimate prank to play on Katie. Connor kept suggesting that they use explosives but Travis had to patiently explain to his brother that they were trying to annoy and humiliate her, not kill her. It took a lot of arguing, 12 slices of pepperoni pizza, 3 bottles of , oh and the half a ham sandwich was eaten as well, but by the time the sun rose over half blood hill they were ready. As they walked down to the dining pavilion Travis was practically bouncing in anticipation, this was going to be big. Even by their standards. And the best part? Katie was going to be soo pissed; he couldn't wait to see the look on her face.

A/N: Remember, I love reviews more than Aphrodite loves love.
