Chapter 18

Β  Β  Β "What exactly is this, I mean the style is something I would wear but...", Bella said holding up the Maleficent costume.


Β  Β  Β "It's Maleficent", I said.


Β  Β  Β "Yeah, and why do I have to be this prissy miraculous", Bella asked.


Β  Β  Β Cissy, Andy, and I laughed at her face.


Β  Β  Β "Obviously because from what I heard, she's evil", Andy said trying to convince her.


Β  Β  Β "Yeah, plus it suits you", Cissy said loudly.


Β  Β  Β Bella glared at her.


Β  Β  Β "Come on, please for me", I said pleading.


Β  Β  Β "Fine only because you're my f-f-friend", Bella said struggling with the word friend.


Β  Β  Β I smirked, "What was that, I couldn't hear you".


Β  Β  Β "Oh you know what I said, now I'm not saying it again", Bella said crossing her arms.


Β  Β  Β "Well let's change and do our make-up", Cissy said.


Β  Β  Β "Alright but, oh wait I didn't get my Halloween costume", I said facepalming myself.


Β  Β  Β "Here you can have mine", Bella said holding the dress towards me.


Β  Β  Β Andy glared at her, "I have an idea but we have to get you ready first".


Β  Β  Β "What me", I asked.


Β  Β  Β "No get Cissy and Bella ready so I can tell you my idea", Andy hissed.


Β  Β  Β Bella became suspicious, "What are you 2 hiding".


Β  Β  Β "Nothing, she probably bought the dress I was looking at in the store", I said, I know it was a horrible lie.


Β  Β  Β She seemed to believe it.


Β  Β  Β Bella didn't want to go first so I worked on Cissy. Andy is stubborn and managed to force Bella into a seat to do her makeup. I was almost done with Cissy, all she had to do was put on her dress. Cissy came out of the bathroom in the blue Aurora dress because she was definitely not going to wear pink.


Β  Β  Β Bella screeched, "What are you wearing".


Β  Β  Β I burst out laughing at her outburst.


Β  Β  Β Cissy tugged on the dress, "Does it look good".


Β  Β  Β "It ugl-", Bella started but Andy elbowed her in her stomach.


Β  Β  Β "Ow".


Β  Β  Β "Ignore Bella, it looks beautiful on you", Andy said.


Β  Β  Β "She's right", I agreed.


Β  Β  Β Cissy blushed. She truly did look beautiful.



Β  Β  Β "I'm going to go check on Lucy", Cissy said using my nickname for him.


Β  Β  Β "Lucy?" Bella and Andy asked.


Β  Β  Β "Lucius", Cissy and I replied.


Β  Β  Β Once Cissy left, Andy and I turned our bodies towards Bella.


Β  Β  Β Her eyes widened, "Oh no".


Β  Β  Β "Oh honey you won't be able to leave", Andy said.


Β  Β  Β After a while, Bella finally shut up. We should've known that Bella wouldn't be quiet for long being the chatterbox she is.


Β  Β  Β "Ow, will you watch it, you almost got the fluffy thing in my eye", Bella yelled.


Β  Β  Β "What that", I said pointing to the makeup brush in Andy's hand. "It's called a makeup brush, now stop moving so I can finish your hair".


Β  Β  Β "Well tell Andy to quit it", Bella whined.


Β  Β  Β "Nope, I told you to keep your eyes shut", Andy said.


Β  Β  Β After a painful hour of getting yelled at by Bella for doing makeup on her, she was finally ready in the black Maleficent dress.



Β  Β  Β "I hate it bye", Bella said.


Β  Β  Β "You love it, Bella, admit it", Andy and I said.


Β  Β  Β She rolled her eyes.


Β  Β  Β The door opened and Cissy entered. She looked at Bella and gasped. "It suits you, come on or we will be late".


Β  Β  Β "But they aren't ready", Bella said.


Β  Β  Β "We will be down in 10 minutes, wait for us', Andy asked.


Β  Β  Β "Alright only 10 minutes", Cissy said.


Β  Β  Β Once they left I turned to Andy and glared. What plan did she have and how did she figure it out in minutes.


Β  Β  Β "Okay, fine, you know-how in the kitchens you did the weird image thing and you could talk to your friends", Andy asked.


Β  Β  Β "Yeah what about it", I asked confused.


Β  Β  Β "Aphrodite the goddess of love and beauty would technically be your half-sister", Andy said excitedly.


Β  Β  Β "Oh no, I'm not doing that, she's probably not going to answer", I said knowing where she was going with this.


Β  Β  Β "But it's your last hope", Andy whined.


Β  Β  Β "Andy I'm not about to die, it's not my last hope", I said putting quotes around last hope.


Β  Β  Β "Come on please, plus I will meet a real goddess, how cool is that", Andy said.


Β  Β  Β I smirked, "So you're using this for your own benefit".


Β  Β  Β "Just do it", Andy said.


Β  Β  Β "Fine", I sighed going to my backpack and getting a golden drachma


Β  Β  Β "What do you do next", Andy said interested as I was creating the rainbow.


Β  Β  Β "Andy let me finish we only have 6 minutes left", I said stressed. "Oh Iris, goddess of the Rainbow, please accept my offering, show me, Aphrodite, er, um...Olympus, Mt. Olympus".


Β  Β  Β The IM showed Aunt Demeter's garden. I made a disgusted face, there were Aphro and Ares making out.


Β  Β  Β "One minute I think I'm about to throw up", I said holding my mouth.


Β  Β  Β Andy giggled.


Β  Β  Β Aphro and Ares broke about and Ares flashed away. I think this is the best encounter I had with Ares, I wouldn't have to listen to his cocky comments because he is gone.


Β  Β  Β "Asterope", Aphro squealed as nothing had happened.


Β  Β  Β Thalia and I had met all the Olympians, perks of being the daughter of Zeus, what's not so well is that we get invited to half of the parties they have throughout the year.


Β  Β  Β "Aphrodite, ahem, I need so help, you see I hosted a Halloween party but I can't find a good costume to wear", I said getting to the point.


Β  Β  Β "My, my, I thought I told you better, if you are hosting a ball then you should have the most extravagant dress", Aphro said disappointed.


Β  Β  Β I facepalmed, "It's not a ball, it's a Halloween party".


Β  Β  Β She sighed, "Alright when do you 2 need to get ready".


Β  Β  Β Andy was staring dumbfounded at Aphrodite. Does this always happen to something that met a goddess for the first time? I elbowed her hard because she knows the time, I don't bother checking the time at camp either.


Β  Β  Β "Oh right, we have 3 minutes, should I bow", Andy said.


Β  Β  Β Aphrodite flashed from the IM making it disappear and all of a sudden appearing behind us.


Β  Β  Β "Wow that's so cool", Andy said staring in awe.


Β  Β  Β "Alright what's your name", Aphro said to Andy.


Β  Β  Β "Andromeda but you can call me Andy", Andy introduced.


Β  Β  Β "Like from Greek Mythology", Aphro asked.


Β  Β  Β "No my whole family is named after stars and constellations", Andy answered surprisingly confidently.Β 


Β  Β  Β "Oh okay, now you are going to be Snow White", Aphrodite said.


Β  Β  Β Andy looked confused until Aphro snapped her fingers and Andy was dressed, makeup and hair did, she was ready.



Β  Β  Β "Whoa", Andy said.


Β  Β  Β Aphrodite turned to me, "Now you said you have nothing to wear".


Β  Β  Β "Err, yeah but I wanted to be Queen Boadicea", I said.


Β  Β  Β (Her name is spelled in many different ways so I may spell it differently sometimes)


Β  Β  Β "Boadicea, your father's daughter from 2000 years ago", Aphro asked.


Β  Β  Β "Uh yeah", I said.


Β  Β  Β "Well I could just get some of her old dresses", Aphro said.


Β  Β  Β My eyes widened.


Β  Β  Β When Aphro saw my face she laughed, "Aster do you really I would do that, I'm the goddess of love and beauty".


Β  Β  Β She snapped her fingers and I was in a checkered-like dress as the skirt and a fancy blouse from the olden days.


Β  Β  Β (Idk how to explain it)


Β  Β  Β "Now I don't know about weapons but you can use yours, bow and arrow, sword and, spear", Aphro said.


Β  Β  Β "Thank you so much", I said hugging her.


Β  Β  Β I pulled back but she pulled me into a hug, "We're sisters".


Β  Β  Β I smiled and she flashed away.


Β  Β  Β I smirked at Andy and got my weapons out. My ring is a sword, my necklace is a set of bow and arrow, and my bracelet is a spear. I have so much more weapons on me. Out of everyone at camp, I think I carry the most weapons.


Β  Β  Β "Your weapons are so cool", Andy squealed.


Β  Β  Β I put them on. Andy gave a thumbs up.



Β  Β  Β (I am actually making a Judy Chicago Dinner party place setting for her in art class)


Β  Β  Β "Okay let's go, Bella and Cissy will be waiting for us", We went downstairs and saw Cissy and Bella waiting impatiently.Β 


Β  Β  Β "Finally", Bella yelled throwing her hand up in the air.Β
