Some days, the gears turn and everything works just fine
Other days, they spin and whiz, go into overtime
On cold mornings, they freeze and slowly thaw throughout the day
Ever so slowly, creaking forward, wishing for warm times of May
One day, they won't move and the plant will have to shut down
Workers'll go home, a broken machine left in the ground

Lincoln Elementary was name of Sally’s new school. She wasn’t happy that she had to leave her friends. It made no sense, why did she even have to change schools? When she asked her Uncle about it, he just grunted something about districts. It had already hurt when she was told she couldn’t live in her old house anymore, Bill had sold it, but now she had to go to a whole new school with a bunch of strangers.
At seven a.m., a whole week after the funeral Uncle Bill pounded on Sally’s door. “Get up and get dressed! You have to be ready for the bus in thirty minutes,” he yelled. Sally grumbled and a

When he first heard Leo’s story of trading a musical instrument for Apollo’s cooperation, he had to smile. It brought him back to the good old days of stealing cows and wearing diapers.This, though, was uncalled for. He cringed as another note rang out from Apollo’s room,

It was official, Sally decided, that the scent of old cigar smoke, the overwhelming perfume of the secretary, and whatever was stinking up the trash bin next to her, combined to create the most putrid stench the world has ever known. Nowadays, when you look around any waiting room you will see multiple people entertaining themselves with a cellphone, but this is 1978, so Sally was stuck with various people staring at walls in boredom and uncomfortable silence. Bill had dragged her along to an attorney’s office to hear her parent’s will, but, deciding that she would be a nuisance, dumped her in the waiting room. So, for a fe
Close my eyes
And see the skies
For what they truly are
An empty place
Full of space
Lonely planets and bright stars
A heavy wind
Coming in
Extinguishes the flame
Through freezing nights
Without the lights
The moon continues to stay same
A changing world
With heat and cold
Still finds time to freeze
For a moment or two
Nothing at all moves
An enchanting, entrancing,still scene
A silent song
Echoes like a gong
Ringing in all hearts
All living things

Uncle Bill lived in a nice apartment complex on the 8th floor. It had one bedroom, a kitchen, and a tiny living room. He also lived with his fiance Miranda; a sweet brunette with gorgeous green eyes.

Years ago, before Percy was even born, Sally had been sitting in the living room pretending to write in the journal she had been given for her birthday. She did this often; she would pretend to be occupied with something so she could eavesdrop on the grown-ups’ conversations. The phone rang and her father, Jacob, left the room for a moment to go answer it. Her returned with a grim look on his face.
“Margret, I just got off the phone and I have some bad news for you.” Sally furrowed her eyebrows, wondering what was going on.

The Argo II swayed back and forth as it passed over the waves. It was so nice, even Hazel was undisturbed by the ocean. The peacefulness was quite strange compared to the events earlier that day, but it was a much welcomed change in pace.

Grover and Juniper's first date
The sunny afternoon seemed like a good omen to everyone, but one fuzzy satyr wasn’t so sure. Despite the warm sun and bright spring grasses, he was trying not to eat the couch that sat across from him. It was not the easiest thing he’d ever done.
Why? Well, today he was going on his first date ever. He wasn’t even sure how he got a date, nonetheless with a really pretty dryad, but she thought he was cute and funny and asked him out. He thought that one probably one of the happiest, scariest, and most surprising things that had ever happened in his life. Not that nothing scary had ever happened to him. Trust me, he&r
The clock in the corner of her eyes read 3am. Cinder wished she could turn it off, but it stayed there, a blue overlay that didn’t leave her sight even when she closed her eyes. Instead of being helpful as it usually was, it instead accented the fact that, instead of sleeping, she was lying awake on her back, staring up at a ceiling filled with nothing but darkness.
Kai shifted next to her, asleep. Maybe without cyborg wiring in his brain, he didn’t remember the exact date. But she did. Even when she wanted nothing more but to put it behind her, she remembered.
Slipping from bed, she stepped out onto the smooth, wood
The only reason he agreed to come along was because she’d been working on it for over a month, and, well, he didn’t want to think about all the teasing he’d have to endure once she told the others he was too scared.
Not that he didn’t trust her; her mechanic skills far surpassed those of everyone he knew, and she probably knew how to drive. He just didn’t trust cars. They’d been replaced with hovers for a reason, and he preferred to respect that reason. But Cinder said she had a history with cars—that a car was the reason Levana was overthrown at all. Kai didn’t understand that part of the story

Piper wasn't sure what to make of the blank half of the room and the untouched bed opposite hers. She had set up her side- pictures of her father, Jason and the rest of the seven had been tacked on the wall. She wanted to sit back and finally relish her first hour of not having to worry at all about any monster attacks before she went to find Jason, but she wouldn't like being interrupted by her roommate, who could walk in at any moment. At the same time, she could possibly be having the room to herself, and that could perhaps get a little lonely.

Nico jumped at the sound of his door opening all of a sudden, and turned in his chair to see Will Solace striding in as though he owned the place. Will had donned his Surf Barbados t-shirt and wore a pair of Hawaiian-themed shorts. His golden blonde hair was slightly ruffled, and he looked as though he had just rolled out of bed. A red tint stained Nico's cheeks, and he turned his back on the son of Apollo.
Will peered over his shoulder. "Homework?"
Nico bent forwards a little, hoping his form would cover his homework, which he was pretty sure was completely filled with incorrect answers. "How does one

Drew muttered to herself as she marched from cabin to cabin. She blamed Piper for this. Well, she blamed Piper for everything, but this especially. Chiron had announced that an Aphrodite camper had to do inspection that week and dear Miss McLean had decided to take a vote as to who would be saddled with inspection duty. Drew was elected.
So she scowled at campers who failed to get their cabins in order in time, scribbled on her clipboard, gave the Athena cabin two out of five purely because Annabeth was dating Percy, and steered clear of Nico’s cabin altogether. He was at Camp Jupiter anyway.

The walk through Tartarus seemed endless. It seemed endless, and with Annabeth’s condition deteriorating, Percy couldn’t help but be worried out of his mind.
She’d been fine for a while; at least she’d been fine enough to function. Her ankle had been broken more severely once they’d landed in Tartarus, but otherwise she and Percy had been lucky enough not to suffer any other extensive injuries besides some cuts, bumps and bruises. Percy had helped her splint her ankle as best he could, but there wasn’t much they could do for it besides that. They’d managed to locate her minimal stash of ambrosia alon

Percy looked at the calendar beside his bed. A huge grin appeared on his face when he saw the date. 3 years. He jumped out of bed, hastily got dressed, and raced into the kitchen where a stack of blue pancakes awaited him.
"A perfect way to start out the day," he silently thought to himself. He grabbed a fork and started to inhale his pancakes.
"So today is the day?" Sally asked
