The party began to annoy Orion with Aria’s response to his dare. He had just smirked in response to her saying he waxes crazy for the dare. Then when she chose to kiss him, she rated the kiss as only a four. “Sorry sweetheart, that’s just how it goes when you kiss someone and they don’t even think about kissing you back.” The part that did bother him most however, was her kissing his brother and just claiming he was better. From there, he soon lost interest in the party and went home.
That next morning, he found out about the events that had occurred the previous day with Perseus, Aries, and Hestia, and also with . Orion definitely did a lot wrong, and he had clearly said and done things around Perseus that he shouldn’t have. I have to be better about that stuff. I’m enough of a screw up as is, and he is supposed to be better than I am or Aries is. I’m a bad influence… Orion walked into Perseus’s room with a concerned look. “Anything interesting happen yesterday Percy?” Perseus looked up from his toys to see Orion leaning against the doorway and immediately shook his head no in response. “I heard about what happened, so don’t even try to deny it.”
“I’m sorrwwy…” Perseus said with the sweetest look possible to keep Orion from being upset.
Orion just sighed. Of all people he had to be the person with the least ground to stand on for telling Perseus he had done something wrong. He slid down against the doorway to sit down at Perseus’s level. “Come here buddy.” Perseus cautiously went over to Orion who still had a clear look of disappointment. “Percy, come on you have to listen and do what you’re told. You can’t back talk or cause trouble. And don’t just use words just because you’ve heard me say it, or Aries say it.”
“But Rye Rye…”
“No. You can’t cause trouble just because mom and dad aren’t here. You’re supposed to be better than us. Which means you have to be a good kid and listen, especially to your nanny.” Orion pulled the squirming four year old into a tight hug. “Ok Percy? Just behave. I don’t want you to be like me.”
“Ok… But you’re awesome Rye Rye!”
“No way kiddo. I’m not awesome. I just cause trouble. You’re awesome Percy, just be a good kid and listen, and stay awesome. I love you buddy, but I gotta go.”
“Love you Rye Rye.”
He gave the kid another hug before standing back up. “Bye buddy. Listen to what you’re told today. Be a good kid for me please.” Orion looked back to Perseus one more time before heading out.
Once Orion left the house he went to get something to eat where he saw someone from the party the night before. “Hey Henry. Needed a bite to eat also?”

The party was interesting to say the least. Calypso still hardly knew most of the others there, but it was enjoyable. As soon as she had gotten home that night she fell right asleep, though a restless sleep was all she had. “Sterling, Sterling please…” she said in her sleep before waking up with tears rolling down her face. At the sound of her crying, Calypso was quickly greeted by her dog, Bandit. Sitting up to wipe her tears she tightly hugged her dog. “I’m fine sweet boy, but I’m happy to have such a loving protector.” She laid there for a while, just cuddling her dog before deciding to get up. “How about we go to the park, would you like that Bandit?” Calypso smiled watching the wagging of her dog’s tail. “Alright buddy, the park it is then.” Calypso got herself ready and grabbed her camera before making her way to the park with her dog. Once she was there, she saw a guy taking pictures, so with Bandit beside her she walked over to him. “This place really makes for some nice pictures, doesn’t it?”
