P.S can we pls forget the nico part in the house of hades ever happened because I can't nopenoepnnope

Nico sat in a corner of the Hades cabin, traumatized and curled in ball, muttering nonsense.

Percy honestly felt sorry for the guy. "Don't get your panties in a twist Nico. Being a girl isn't that bad." He-I mean, she, paused, looking at his now slender figure. She grumbled, "trust me."

Nico glared up at her, growling, "That sentence wasn't even funny." She clutched her jet black hair that now reached her shoulders, "I'd rather be a dandelion!"

"wow Nico you really are fit for a girl-"

"Shut up."

Annabeth's brain could not grasp the situation, and that was saying something considering she was a daughter of Athena.

She sighed, "You guys could at least cope with it. You're emotionally scarring the campers."

Nico glared at her too. Percy was surprised Nico's eyes hadn't disappeared from all the glaring he'd done since he was genderbent.

"We're emotionally scarred too! I have-things on my chest!" Nico complained, looking down at his...well, um, chest and groaning.

Annabeth rolled her eyes, "We have to deal with that too Nico. I'm a girl, remember?"

"Actually, it's not that bad. Other guys can't punch me anymore and I can pick seashells without being gay-" Percy started, but was unceremoniously cut off by Nico.

Nico made an annoyed grunt and remained in her curled up position in the corner.

And Nico glared...again.

Percy snorted, and narrowed her eyes as she said, "Nico are you secretly asian-"

"Go to hell, Percy."

"Too late. You lose."

Piper sat in her cabin bed, contemplating what was happening. Would she become a boy too? Obviously, that's what her mom's note said. And as far as she was concerned, she was included in the word 'all'.

Groaning, she rubbed her temples. What else could worsen this day?

"Hello Beauty Queen!"

Oh.

Sighing, Piper looked up at Leo, who had graced his presence into their cabin, smiling a million watt smile.

"What do you want?" She said. Leo simply sat down beside her and said, "Well, firstly, if you have a cure already prepared for this mishap, that would fine and dandy so-"

Piper gave him a look.

"Well that answered my question." He continued, "Second, how do we know who's going to be turned next?"

Piper shook her head, "I don't know, but mom seems to have something up her sleeve." Piper sighed again, "I don't know why she's doing this."

Leo shrugged, "She is a love goddess. Maybe it's her twisted plan of romance or something."

Piper looked down at the pink carpet-ah, ew no my eyes burn, she instead looked at the white ceiling, and said, "Yeah...but that would prove what?"

Leo made a face saying he was either constipated and going to fart or he was thinking really hard. Piper hoped the latter.

Piper patted his back, "I need some sleep. We'll talk this out with Percy and the rest later."

Leo laughed, "Whatevs, Beauty Queen. I just hope I don't turn into a girl when you wake up."

Piper buried her face in her pillow as Leo left their cabin.

May the Gods help us all.

...

well, maybe not all of the Gods.

Percy walked along the shore, bare feet brushing against the sand, seashells cradled in her arms as she whistled a happy tune. As if becoming a girl was completely normal and happened everyday.

She then hearda faint noise of people talking, and turning around, she saw Annabeth leading a group of campers, with confused looks on their faces.

"Campers..." She thought to herself, then grinned. "They must be new!"

Skipping over to the group, they immediately noticed the pretty girl, and went wide eyed.

"Hey there!" SHe greeted, standing next to Annabeth. She was tempted to give her a kiss on the cheek, but decided against.

Annabeth eyes widened, "Percy? What are you doing here?"

The new campers gasped at her name. "Percy?"

"Percy Jackson?"

"I thought he was a guy-"

Annabeth sighed, "Everyone, this is Perseus Jackson, but due to some...inevitable circumstances he...is now a she." She pursed her lips, "It's only temporary though." She said reassuringly. Maybe not to assure the campers. but to assure herself.

Percy looked at her questioningly, raising a brow as her sea green eyes spiked with curiosity at Annabeth's lie. But fortunately she didn't question it.

A handome looking guy made his way through the crowd, grinning at her. "It's rude now to introduce myself. I'm Caden Evetcher. Apollo kid."

Percy looked at the guy, he had blond hair and sky blue eyes like most Apollo kids. She smiled. "Hey man! I'm Perseus-temporarily-Persephone Jackson, son-I mean, daughter of Poseidon." She said, taking his outstretched hand and shaking it firmly. Not noticing the light blush on Caden's face.

Damn, she was still a guy deep inside.

Annabeth eyed them suspiciously, mostly at Caden. She narrowed her eyes. I know that look.

Her eyes widened in realization after she observed his face. Damn, she cussed. He's smitten.

Percy snapped her fingers in front of Annabeth's face, "Wise girl? You alright?"

Annabeth snapped out of her thoughts and slapped Percy hand away, "I'm fine, Percy." she said, sounding harsher and colder than she intended. She noticed the new campers had now gone away, which was fine since the tour was over.

"What's with you today?" Percy questioned sadly, involuntarily raising her hand to cup her cheek. And Percy noticed her hand was now smaller than when she was a boy.

Annabeth flinched, and stepped back a bit. "What do you mean what's with me? It's supposed to be what's with you!"

"Annabeth...?" Percy trailed off, not knowing what was wrong with her girlfriend.

"You've turned into a girl Percy! It's...wierd." Annabeth admitted, rubbing her arm.

"...but I'm still Percy." Percy whispered, sadly. Now realizing how hard it was being a girl, as her girly feelings were acting up. "Seaweed brain, y'know?" She looked up hopefully.

Annabeth shook her head, "I don't know." She looked down, "I'm going to think this through for a while...okay?"

Percy nodded numbly, "Okay."

And as Annabeth walked away, Percy felt his heart break a bit.

she was still Percy, right?

...right?

Nico wrapped his aviator jacket around him as she made his way to the Aphrodite cabin. He hadn't exactly gotten clothes due to he had shut himself in his room, and even if he didn't want to be a girl, he now needed...girl stuff to look appropriate. And everytime he ran his hands through his hair it gets stuck halfway through and he realized there were so much tangles in there, and it hurt when he pulled.

"This sucks..." She grumbled to herself. as she reached the pink decorated cabin she knocked at the Aphrodite cabin, but no one answered.

She sighed, and noticed a girl heading towards the Dining Pavilion. She then realized it was the Aphrodite kid, Lacy.

"Lacy!" She shouted, and Lacy turned to her and smiled. "Hey Nicole."

I hate my life.

Ignoring the name she asked, "I sort of need help with this...situation." She said, glaring down at her body.

Lacy giggled, "Piper's inside. Just come right in. Me and my siblings are heading for dinner."

Nico nodded, "Thanks." Lacy walked away, as Nico entered the Aphrodite cabin. He was somewhat relieved that she was only going to face Piper and not an army of screaming Aphrodite girls wanting to put lip gloss on him.

"Hey Piper, I-" He froze in his steps.

Piper slowly got out of bed, still half asleep, as she turned to Nico, yawning. "Hey Nico."

Okay, that did not sound like her voice.

Pier's eyes widened as she grasped at her hair, realizing it was too short.

Sleep now completely gone, she raced to the mirror, (which Aphrodite cabin had billions of, thank you very much) and her suspicions were confirmed.

Turning to a surprised female Nico, she sighed, "Well Nico, it looks like we're going to have to teach each other a thing or two." He said, picking up a brush and gesturing Nicole to come over, "C'mere your hair looks horrible."

Nico just wished he had just handled the army of screaming Aphrodite girls rather than a male Piper.

Walking to the Dining Pavilion, Piper and Nicole (Nico hates everything now) were now ready to face whatever the other campers would shout at them.

But surprisingly as Piper hesitantly down at her table and Nicole on hers, no one made a sound.

Piper smirked at her siblings, "You guys are awesome."

Lacy smirked back, "Of course we'd be nice enough to warn everyone of your circumstance."

Lily shoved a piece of chicken in her mouth, "Wher shush tha aweshum." (Translates to: 'we're just that awesome')

They all chuckled in agreement as they continued to eat, not notcing the missing daughter of Poseidon.

Nico, overhearing this, decided he would strangle Lacy later.

Percy trudged his way up Camp-half blood hill, sadness evident on his face as he made it to the top, and just lay down there, staring up at the sky.

"Beautiful, isn't it?" said a voice in Percy's head, a voice Percy knew oh so well.

"...this is all your fault." Percy thought back at Aphrodite, growling.

"Now now, I know you feel like you've lost your beloved Annabeth-"

"I did."

"-But I'm going to bring her back to you. Percabeth won't end just like that!" Aphrodite's voice in his head ignored his words.

"...how? I'm a girl. She's a girl." Percy thought hopelessly.

Aphrodite's melodious voice laughed in his head. "Percy, I know you think of me as a hopeless goddess searching for a life to mess with."

"Aren't you?" Percy shot back.

Sighing, Aphrodite continued, "...but I'm doing this for a reason."

Percy covered her face with her hands, which had now become wet with tears. Damn girl hormones.

"Love works in a hundred different ways Percy, no matter what gender. And if it doesn't work, then it isn't love." Aphrodite's voice changed to the tone of a mothers, comforting and soothing. The feeling of fear shot through Perct at her words, but Aphrodite assured her.

"You and Annabeth have quite a strong one, I assure you. Annabeth's not scared of you being a girl. She's scared to lose Percy. Girl or boy. She's cared to lose you to someone else now that you're a girl. " Aphrodite told him.

"She wouldn't lose me. I'm still Percy no matter what. We'll find a cure." Percy told her firmly. And the realization dawned on him that Aphrodite was really old and had experienced lots of things.

He could almost sense Aphrodite smile. "Why don't you show her that?"

Aphrodite watched from Olympus as Percy ran back to Camp half-blood with fire in her eyes, and she laughed to herself.

"You're getting closer to solving it Percy. A little step...but it's happening." She smiled, eyes glinting.

And done. I wished I could've made it longer, but writers block always attacks at the worst possible moment.
