16Hi! It's AutumnLeaves03! I'm back with the last chapter on Demigods on chopped! *tears stream down face*
I'm so happy that this story was liked! A shout out to:
BlackShaftedArrow, Luisa, SandStorm12 (now StandStorm03) and xXPhoenixluverXx. Thank you so much! You make me smile every time you review!
Now on with the show!
Piper and I face each other.
The studio lights dim and then John speaks.
"Chef Leo, and Chef Piper, Are you ready for the final round?" He asks.
"I'M ready!" I scream.
"I'm ready to kick your butt," Piper growls.
"Okay! For the dessert round there will be… Gram Cracker Cereal!" John says.
We open our baskets and pull out the Gram Cracker Cereal.
"Cream cheese." John smiles.
We pull out the cream cheese.
"Coconut flakes!" John yells.
He's got a yelling problem.
We pull out the coconut flakes.
"And red wine!" John screeches.
We pull that out too.
"You have got thirty minutes. Your time starts now!" John whispers.
I look at Piper, she is getting flour and some other weird-looking things from the pantry.
I decide to simply copy her.
I get the same stuff from the pantry and start to chop up the cereal.
As I watch Piper, I see that she grabs the red wine and pour's some of it into a bowl with her cream cheese.
I do the same, starting mixing as I watch Piper stir hers out of the corner of my eye.
Piper takes her mixture out of the bowl and puts it into a mixing machine. She puts stuff for a cake into the mixing machine, I do the same.
I snicker. Piper has no idea that I'm copying her.
Piper turns on the mixing machine. She then starts to spread her coconut flakes onto a baking sheet and put them into her oven to bake.
I do the same, but I sprinkle sugar into mine.
"25 minutes left!" John yells.
Piper grabs her cake mixture and puts it onto a small pan to bake. I do the same, things are turning out great.
Piper's P.O.V.
Surprise, surprise! It's me! PIPER THE AWESOME CHEF!
Don't think that I don't know that Leo is copying me, I'm not a dumb monster!
I have a plan. I'm going to use my cake as a part of my dish, but I put my wine in my cake, Leo didn't see that, I don't plan on using the cream cheese and wine stuff, if Leo had tasted it he would find it tastes really bad!
I plan on putting my cream cheese in ice cream, it's going to be great!
I take my smashed up Gram Cracker Cereal and crunch it up into dust. I will put it into my ice cream.
"20 minutes left" John says.
I grit my teeth, I can win this!
Leo's P.O.V.
Piper doesn't suspect a thing! I watch her take out her cake and put it in the… Blender?
I laugh. I definitely won't do that!
"15 minutes left!" John yells.
I clench my jaw and think about Calypso, I will win this for her!
Piper's P.O.V.
I blend up my cake, it isn't done yet, it still needs some time in the oven, I watch, laughing in my head as Leo takes his out, not bothering to check if it is done cooking.
I stuff my cake chunks into a little oven proof bowls, I then make my ice cream and put it into the ice cream maker while Leo isn't looking, he is sooo clueless.
Over to the side of the room that the people who watch the show never see it the cameras and benches, all the chefs who were chopped are sitting over there whispering, giggling and eating cookies.
Percy and Nico are over there, along with Annabeth, Will, and Hazel, claiming that she had to see this. And Calypso. I smile, my Aphrodite genes showing.
I come back and look at my coconut flakes, I took them out a few minutes ago, I sprinkled them with sugar and other good stuff on it.
"Under 10 minutes!" John calls.
Leo's P.O.V.
I let my cake cool, I take out the coconut flakes and sprinkle them on my plates.
I put a blob of cream cheese wine on my plates. I watch Piper do the same with hers. She put a smaller blob though. Weird…
As i watch Piper take out her cake… Wait. I thought that she already pulled her cake from the oven! Well, too bad for her! My cake is baked perfectly. Obviously.
"5 minutes!" John says.
I swear in Ancient Greek and slide my cake onto the plate.
Then the worst happens.
It falls apart. It literally turns to mush.
I panic and try to shape it back into a cake shape.
Piper's P.O.V.
"2 minutes!" John yells.
I fetch my ice cream and put it onto the dish alongside the cake. It actually looks great. Leo hasn't got a chance.
The coconut flakes that I cooked are sprinkled on the plate.
I take the gram cracker cereal and cut a few pieces up, garnishing the plates with a cut strawberry and a small sugary fruit salad. I'm done with 30 seconds left.
Leo's P.O.V.
I start to freak out, Piper is done with her dish, with my last energy I throw the food into the plates. It doesn't look too bad from this angle… wait. It actually does.
As we walk to line up in front of the judges I start to sweat.
I hold my breath as my plate goes first; it's going to look like Piper copied me!
I smirk. I want this money. I need this money, I HAVE TO HAVE THE MONEY! Well, I guess I don't NEED it but still! I want money.
I gulp and slowly present my dish.
"I-i made a-a cake, a deconstructed cake, umm, it had cake stuff, I made uhh, a cream cheese wine mix, and uhhh, coconut crisps, and, um, uh, yah." I smile and try to hold still.
"The cake, *cough* it's basically mush, the cream cheese and wine mix is horrible, the coconut crisps are coated in sugar and are great, but where is your gram cracker cereal?" the lady judge asks.
"BEEEEEEEP!" I swear. (Cover your ears young ones!)
The judges raise their eyes, I'm screwed.
"Okay, next we have Chef Piper!" John says.
"I made for you today, a cake, with my own version of cream cheese and wine mix, the coconut crisps, some ice cream, and, uh, yeah!" Piper grins.
All the judges taste and complement Piper's dish.
I. AM. DONE. FOR!
"Okay, chefs, you may leave the judges to talk about your dishes!" John smiles with his teeth, gesturing for us to leave.
Me and Piper turn and march out, as soon as we get into the waiting room I burst into (manly) tears.
"Piper! Why! I wish you made a bad dish!" I sob.
"Speak in Greek you stupid demigod!" Piper hisses.
I grunt and put my head on the table, I wish this was over.
Piper's P.O.V.
Leo grunts and puts his head on the table. I smile and start to re-braid my hair, it got messed up.
Soon we are called back in, we line back up and smile.
John starts talking and then the judges talk a little bit.
"So whose dish is on the chopping block?" John says.
I close my eyes.
I hear the cover being lifted up.
"Chef Leo, you have been chopped!" John says.
I look at Leo, Tears are building up in his eyes, his lips are trembling.
I start to feel bad, Leo invited me into the show with him, and I beat him in every round.
"Wait!" I say as Leo starts to step forwards to shake hands with the judges and John.
Leo looks up at me, tears streaming down his cheeks.
I instantly feel horrible.
"Don't chop Leo, chop me" I say.
Leo's face brightens up.
Then the lights flare back on, the director screams 'Cut! Cut!' and Calypso walks up to Leo and wipes the tears away.
"I'm afraid, that you can't do that Miss McLean" the Director of the show says.
I frown.
"We will re-do the scene, everyone! Back to your places!" The dude says.
Everyone goes back to their spot, the light dim again and John covers the dish with the lid again. I sigh, as John lifts the lid and Leo is chopped, I feel a few tears fill my eyes as Leo walks out, but a smile lights up my face as I am given the 10,000 dollars.
As the lights flare on again and chatter is heard, me, Leo, Nico and Percy are pulled into a different room to do ourselves talking in the show, this is going to be rough.
After that, we are said goodbye to and are headed out the door, after we drive back to camp half blood, Percy drives this time, we only got 4 tickets for speeding.
After we get back the campers greet us and ask who won, I say I did, and then the crowd leaves,
I pull Leo over.
"Hey, Leo" I say to him nervously.
"Hi Pipes" Leo says and tries to smile.
"I wanted to give you this," I say, and hand him half of the prize money. Annabeth will get the rest to fund her building projects.
"Thanks, Piper!" Leo practically screams.
I grin and walk away feeling proud.
Two weeks later
Piper's P.O.V.
After Leo got a hold of the money he spent it all on Fonzies. The camp literally had to build a whole new building for all of the Frozies! Annabeth used the money to get herself into an awesome college.
Leo soon got really fat after eating all of the Fonzies so we had to put him on a diet, but I'm not going to tell you that because it would take too long and the person who is writing this story is getting bored.
The end! Thank you so much for reading and reviewing, the ending might have seemed rushed but I really wanted to finish the story. This is the last chapter of Demigods on chopped.
I wish you a good day or night
