[Chiron POV]

Things had certainly changed since a certain demigod got to this camp, the prank ratio increased to a one thousand percent, but he was a master on his craft… and we never had any proof to ground him.

But, taking out the bad part, he was a nice kid. Helping others out, giving the demigods on the camp a semblance of what is to have a normal life… and yes I know he makes money of that, but everyone here seems happier than before.

His cabin was a shopping mall for demigods… one that I myself had used more than once, what can I say he sells the best horseshoes in the market.

"The camp is… quieter without the brat," Lord Dionysus commented with a frown, but I really knew what he was trying to say… I miss the brat and his pastries, the ones he gets from Hestia herself to sell.

"He will be back Lord Dionysus," I smiled, "He has to, you are his best client,"

Lord Dionysus snorted, "I still can't understand how he convinced Hestia to work with him, but yeah, you are right… he has to, he owes me three cakes, and if I have to go to the underworld to get them I will," he laughed.

"We both know that kid is hard to kill," I allowed myself to laugh, "He is a crafty one," a bit reckless but he was probably the strongest demigod of this generation.

"That he is," Lord Dionysus agreed, "I…. can you hear that?"

I focused on the sounds around us, and nothing seemed out of the ordinary, that was until a song caught my ears, I couldn't quite describe what the song was saying or if it was a song to begin with, but…. it was getting closer, "I do… it's coming this way,"

"That brat…. hahahaha," Lord Dionysus snorted, "I will hand it to him, he has a lot of creativity," he smiled, "Not like the brain dead fish we got recently,"

Before I could reply, the song that my ears had faintly caught stopped, for now the lyrics were clear, "Da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da," with that a car broke into the camp with Percy, Annabeth and Adam inside, "Adam!"

"Oh for the love of god… kill me!" Annabeth begged.

"I welcome the abyss," Percy muttered.

"Oh come on, the song isn't that bad," Adam said, jumping out of the car, "Besides, the Adam mobile needed a song,"

"Five hours… we listened to the same… da da da da god fucking da da, verse for five hours!" Annabeth growled,.

"Mr. D…. is the offer to liquify my molecules still up?" Percy muttered looking at Lord Dionysus with pleading eyes.

Lord Dionysus looked at Percy and then at Adam and smiled, "You did good brat, you did good,"

"A pleasure to be of assistance," Adam bowed.

"I… I don't think I get paid enough for this, so I will go to… the training camps," And so I galloped out of that weird situation, ignoring Annabeth and Percy calling for me, I was conflicted, but I knew… they had to face this battle alone.

[Adam POV]

I think by this point psychologically trolling Annabeth was a hobby, one that I was stupidly good at, the Adam mobile was just the first phase of my trolling master plan. The real part was my theme song, which I put on a loop for hours.

But Adam… isn't that going to hurt you too? Well, if I was an idiot, it would. But alas, I was not… not this time at least, you see I muted my ears to avoid hearing the song altogether, genius isn't it?

And with my ears protected I let Annabeth and Percy suffer the worst thing you can do to the human mind… putting a catchy song on a loop, it will take them months to control their humming of my song, "haha.. hahah, MUAHAHA!" I laughed, for victory was mine again!

"MUAHAHAHAHAHA!" I stopped my evil laugh when I heard someone else had joined in on my evil laugh, and that someone was Hestia, who had flames around her to accentuate her laugh, "Sorry… it just seemed fun," she apologized seeing I had stopped.

"Do you know why I'm laughing," I couldn't help but wonder if she would laugh if she knew the answer.

"Hmm, you pranked Percy and Annabeth, practically inserting a song they will never be able to get out of their heads, right?" Hestia smiled.

"Huh… I did not expect you to… be okay with that," I admitted.

"I knew you were a prankster before I even talked to you," Hestia snorted, "I have nothing against it, is all in good fun, no one is dying so thumbs up,"

"I see," I chuckled, "May we restart our evil laugh?"

"I don't see why not," Hestia nodded.

"MUAHAHAHAHAHA!" And so we laughed, flames burning around us with the passion of our pranking hearts.

[Annabeth POV]

Da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da…. GOD FUCKING DAMN IT!

"I will find a way to have my revenge… I can't keep on losing," I muttered, da da da da da da da da, NO!

"I can't stop humming the song…. I think he broke us," Percy muttered, "All I think about is the song… da da da, every freaking second,"

"We will have our revenge Percy," I promised, even if it was the last thing I did, da da.

"We can't beat him…. he is unstoppable when it comes to pranks… da da da," Percy sighed.

"Then we will find a way, da da," No one was unstoppable da da da.

"I have but one question…" Lee who had come to sit with us said, "Why are you saying da da da… every other sentence?"

"I hate Adam," Percy and I said in one voice, da da.
