I don't own PJO.
The fact that teenagers were getting chased by monsters should have warranted some strange glances from the people in camp. However it happened often enough that not too many people turned their heads. All except for one camper who was sitting on the lowest branch of Thalia's Pine who was watching them carefully.
There were eleven of them, and she knew exactly who they were. A good bit of them looked winded and one or two were virtually being carried by this point. She hopped down to go speak to them. "Nice shooting Uncle A, you too Aunty A!"
Two of the teens, the archers, blinked. "What?"
"I know a god when I see them."
Everyone looked relieved. "No one's recognized us!" one complained.
"Uncle Ares, no one wants to recognize you," the young demigod said with a roll of her eyes. She then focused on the most winded of the people. She was propped up by two guys and though she didn't look happy about it; she let them help without complaint.
The demigod blinked several times before asking, "Mom?"
The girl who looked no older than fifteen gave her a weary smile. "How are you child? I wasn't aware of your presence at camp."
"Well with milady being a teenager I had no purpose on Olympus did I? I figured you might need help when you arrived at camp." She sighed. "It's a good thing I did too. Chiron's out with his relatives, in Alaska if you would believe it, and we can't reach him. Mr. D has disappeared; I think he might have done this."
The boy on Athena's left grumbled. "Stupid son of mine can't handle responsibility."
"Who's in charge?" the brunette girl in the back asked.
The demigod smiled. "Well, Step-Grandmother you'd be proud. I called in reinforcements. We are now under the control of my dad."
Her mother looked faint. "You're lying."
"Nope, he found out he was a demigod last week. Now he's in charge of the entire camp!"
"He'll blow it up!" her mother said with a scowl. "He can't even remember to pay the bills!"
The boy on her right snickered. "Really? You had a kid with someone that dumb?"
"Let's put it this way," the demigod laughed. "I'm a half-blood daughter of Athena with three parents. Any more questions, Poseidon?"
He tried to count on his fingers. The girl shushed him. "Her parents couldn't have children, I took pity on them. Any more dumb questions?"
He rolled his eyes and turned to the demigod. "So who are you?"
She tried to act offended, but failed. "Assistant to Aphrodite, Daughter of Athena, and second in command of Cabin Six; the name's Elle, that's what my friends call me. If you call me by anything else you're a threat to my life, its solid planning."
Elle didn't look an Athena child. Her eyes were dark brown, as was her hair. Her skin was barely a shade darker than Hades's and her clothing style screamed Aphrodite. She wasn't even wearing the camp uniform that is unless the uniform was now a pink and red knee length dress.
However the moment she spoke, she commanded a sense of wisdom beyond her years. "So," she said, "I think we need a plan."
Soon the Olympians, plus Hades and minus a few others, were lined up in front of her.
"All right, let's get the easy one's out of the way." She looked at one of the blondes. "Hermes, you go to your own cabin. Your new name is..."
"New name?" he asked.
She rolled her eyes. "Do you think demigods are idiots? If there are a bunch of new kids named Hermes, Ares, wouldn't that be suspicious?" He nodded. "You're Ryder Daniels."
"Punk, just tell me my name so I can get on with it," Ares grumbled unpleasantly.
"Wyatt Gideon, hope that's not too long for you," Elle sneered. The war god huffed and walked away. She beckoned Apollo and Artemis forward. "You two look like twins, so you're going to the same cabin."
Artemis groaned a bit. "You'll be in the Apollo cabin as Rafael and Gwendolyn Kyler."
Hermes snorted until the twins glared at him.
"Aphrodite, milady," Elle said with a slight curtsy to the blonde who had finally decided to stand, much to Hades relief as he had once again drawn the short straw and had to carry her. "You are going to take Hera to your cabin."
She gave the other goddess an once-over. "I can work with that."
"You're name is Lorelei Hadyn." Elle looked at Hera a bit before deciding. "And you are Candace Abra."
Hera smiled; her first name meant 'queen mother' this could work.
Now she was left with the big three, Demeter, and Athena and she knew what she'd have to do. "You three can't go to your own cabins anymore than Artemis or Hera can, so absolutely no using your powers."
Zeus nearly dropped out from under his daughter. "What?"
His granddaughter completely ignored him. "Okay Hades, Hectate volunteered to claim you. You're name is Jasper Garnet, got it?"
He smiled happily, anyone but Demeter please.
"Poseidon, you are going to go to Demeter's cabin with her. You're name is Dylan Merrick." He nodded. "Demeter you're named Willow Harvest, because you do love those ironic names for your children."
She finally looked at her mother and grandfather. "You two are the newest members of my cabin. Welcome Gale and Olivia Claremont."
Athena smiled a bit at her child and tried to stand up on her own. When she stumbled Poseidon caught her. "Don't make me carry you," he laughed.
"Never," she said tiredly with a small smile. She looked at her daughter kindly. "You are a special child, you know that?"
"Special ed," Elle laughed. "That's what Mommy says at least."
Athena shook her head with a smile. "I don't think there is anyone more capable of raising you right than your mortal mother."
"She was blessed by Hera."
Poseidon muttered, "Now if only Hera could give herself that blessing."
Athena responded with a light laugh as she tried to stand up again. It actually worked this time and she sighed in relief. Maybe she wasn't as tired as she had originally thought. Why had that even happened, she was tougher than Demeter yet she was still standing. She decided then and there she hated being a teenager.
Zeus cleared his throat. "Um Poseidon, you can let go of my daughter now."
Suddenly the pair became very aware to the fact that his arm was still wrapped around her waist. Their faces reddened before they let go.
Elle kindly cleared her throat and smiled at the eleven new campers in front of her. "I think we should get you guys some clothes and equipment from around camp."
"Uniforms?"
"Yep," she said.
Aphrodite groaned.
"Weapons?"
"Definitely."
Ares cheered.
"Lunch?" Apollo asked hopefully.
"Missed it by about an hour."
He groaned and Elle laughed a little. "All right then, everyone welcome to Camp Half-Blood!"
A/N:
I love turning the gods into mortals. I don't think there's going to be any demigods from the series here, but Elle and her dad are the only OCs you're going to meet.
Also I'm not giving up on my Tay Swift PJO fanfic, but this one is much more fun to write.
Ps. So you don't get confused with names I'm planning to write like this: She looked for Hera and when she spotted her yelled, "Hey Candace, come over here for a sec."
