Mount Olympus

Tahira

"Well, Tahira," He whisper, "I don't suppose you won't recognize me. Cameron Grahn. Probably the biggest a**h*le in this school."

Cameron had stolen everything from Jace and me, including my heart. In a single swoop he had done it all, a true man after my own heart, I kiss Cameron again as they announce the prom queen and king. Rayah had made prom queen but was no where to be seen, and Alex who had got punch all over him as he took the stage. I didn't care if I didn't make it this year, but I will have to fight and defeat Rayah eventually. It would have to happen eventually.

Jace

I smile at Rayah, not believing how things are turning out. Without a moment's hesitation, I cross the room and kiss her once more, just needing to make sure this is real.

"I wish I knew that then," I whisper.

``````````````````````````
Cameron

Tahira kisses me again as they announce Prom King and Queen. Smirking, I nod at my groupies and hold my personal Queen close.

"Ready for a show?" I whisper, turning her towards the stage.

The lights all of a sudden go out before flickering back on. Ten gallons of liquid cheese pours over everyone near the front, topped by slices of lunchmeat. The doors to the back open and a couple of the meat eating monsters kept in the stables bombard in, charging the committee.

"Shame the kid wasn't up there," I sigh, "Seeing him mauled might have improved your mood, eh?"

Rayah

He crosses the room and kisses me again just as I hear screaming from...the school? I kiss him back anyway but soon curiousity takes the best of me. I pull back and hesitate before making my way towards the window. I see people running from the school. Covered in cheese?

I take a step back and shake my head out, closing the widow while turning back to Jace. "I now think I am crazy.." I muttered.

Tahira

Cheese pours down on everyone and pieces of lunchmeat rain down as meat eating monster are released into the gym, all I could do is grin and nod as the crowd goes ballistic trying to fight off the monsters. I nod my head towards the door not wanting to get caught in the mess, we soon find ourselves outside as Cameron and his groupies introduce themselves with the women of there choice who didn't seem to be happy here. Cameron finally introduces me as I step forward cracking my knuckles. I didn't look very menacing in my prom dress but when I was back in my normal clothes I would look very, very, menacing.

Jace

People covered in cheese exit the school, screaming as they run. I suppress a chuckle or two, watching Rayah.

"No, those people are drenched in cheese," I tell her, "You aren't crazy yet...more than usual anyway."

``````````````````````
Cameron

She nods her approval, grinning, and I lead her outside. I introduce everyone of my groupies to her and then save the best for last.

"This is Tahira," I say, smiling, "She's off limits in every way. But there's something we'll need to help her take care of soon... A certain freshie needs to learn his place."

She cracks her knuckles and I smirk, wrapping my arms around her from behind.

"And we're going to teach him just who's boss. Aren't we, boys?"

My groupies nod, smiling sickly.

"The torture starts Monday. Just the boy. We'll spare everyone else and make him our main focus," I say, "Now, if you'll excuse me, it's time to walk my Tahira home."

Rayah

I sigh, nodding, and rub my eyes, supressing a yawn. "Yeah. I'm crazy," I chuckled, plopping down on my bed, closing my eyes just for a second.

Tahira

The walk home was one in silence, I didn't know if it was my seething rage for Jace or Cameron's smug look that he has a queen at his side. But the walk home was silent for the most part as we reached the palace gates, I gave Cameron a long passionate kiss goodnight. And soon turned to my door and pushed it open as my mom and dad were sitting at there thrones with the other ten Olympian gods, they weren't happy I could tell my a thunderstorm weather watch on the screen not to far from me.

"Whats happened to Jace?" My mother asks.

"He traded me up for some green eyed witch." I said.

"Does that explain why students at the school became covered in cheese and lunchmeat and monster released on them?" She asked.

"Yes it does, I'm hoping Jace was in the mix and he had gotten eaten." I said.

Jace

She lays down and closes her eyes and I sit in the desk chair, not sure what to do.

"You going to sleep?" I ask.

````````````````````````
Cameron

Tahira kisses me, long and passionately, before walking into her home. I hesitate a moment, doubting if she liked me for me or as a rebound. Shaking my head, I ignore the doubt and head back to my groupies, planning Monday. It's been said that the kid's a pacifist. Time to break the anti-violence then.

Rayah

I shrug, "Probrably, see you Monday? Come pick me up in the morning?" I ask, flashing a smile.

Tahira

My eyes shine open to a monday mourning as the birds called out and the palace already buzzing with activaty. I get up and into the shower and then soon I head out to school, I cracked my knuckles as I was ready for my first day with Cameron as my boyfriend and the first day Jace gets toruchered. I soon meet up with Cameron and his groupies as we head to school, the smug energy about him only made him more desireable I could tell it in the air as he knew what I had planned and soon it would all come to fruition, and Jace would regret dumping me dearly.

Jace

I wake, a sick feeling in my stomach, and get ready for school as usual. Today...Wait, would Rayah let us act like more than friends? I shrug all my doubts and feelings off and head to her house. Gus had mysteriously disappeared over the weekend, so I'm alone this time.

I knock on the door and wait, butterflies fluttering in my stomach and spiders crawling under my skin.

`````````````````````
Cameron

"Today is the day, boys," I smile, waiting for Tahira in the center of the battleground.

She soon arrives and my mood improves, liking the way she looks normally better than in frilly dresses and masks. I sling an arm around her waist and greet her with a kiss.

"It's all set, sparkles," I whisper in her ear, "I hope you approve of what's planned."

With that, we head to school as my groupies look out for the kid.

Rayah

I wake, take a shower, put my hair up, and dress in all black, and my leather jacket. I keep a dagger hidden in my boot just in case that Tahira girl had any ideas. I walk to the door just as Jace gets here and I flash a smile, opening the door. He smiles back and I kiss him quickly before grabbing my books.
"C'mon," I twine my hand with his as we start walking towards the school.

Tahira

I grin vicously as he whispers into my ear a deadly poison, one that'll drink in every step of the way. His groupies gathered around as a lot of them looked ready to fight, first I had to sneak up on Rayah and disable her so she can't protect her boyfriend. My electric hands will make short work of her. We soon set up into posistions as the two came along passing into the parking lot, I was far off to hide myself for when I can sneak up on her.

Jace

I smile at Rayah, our hands twined. As happy as she makes me, the feeling in my gut only grows the closer we get to the school. I don't realize until too late that something is up. Rayah is taken from my side and I'm surrounded.

"Hey, Fruitcake, nice seeing you again," the voice from the guy at Prom says, smiling widely.

Oh sh*t..

`````````````````````````
Cameron

Tahira goes off to take care of the girl while I walk with my groupies to surround the kid. He realizes what's happening once I speak up, but doesn't know how bad it's about to get. I nod and the boys get started, charging him from every side and sending punch after punch. He doesn't cry out or whimper like I would have wanted, but we don't stop. I stay on the outside, making sure Tahira is alright holding her own.

Rayah

That girl takes me away from Jace and I punch, kick, do whatever I can to get out of her grasp. "Let me go a**h*le!" I scream, turning my arms to fire. She jerks back and I breath hevaily, running to Jace before I get grabbed again..

"DAD!" I yell, struggling.
