The Noodle Chronicles

Premise
This is a collaboration based off of something called a Noodle Incident. If you don't know what a Noodle Incident is, it is an event of some kind that is mentioned by a character, but never fully explained. Kind of like hearing the punch-line of a joke, but never hearing the joke itself. Well because of that, I am going through my books and finding these Noodle Incidents and getting the user's of this site to write their own stories about what they think happened.

Requirements
Because these are random stories mentioned in the book, you dont have to worry about holding someone else up. but submitting your story in a timely manner would be appropriated. Each story must be at least 750 words to be a complete story, however smaller NI could be less if specified.

Also, I am going through the books one at a time so I will update the stories available as I read through them. You can also add your own if you remember one. Each story will have a line or something from the book that you will base you story on, with each NI having a possible list of plots that you must include in your story. Also, two people can pick the same story, but you must add your name to the story to let everyone know who is writing it.

The 5th Field Trip
"Like at my fifth-grade school, when we went to the Saratoga battlefield, I had this accident with a Revolutionary War cannon. I wasn't aiming for the school bus, but of course I got expelled anyway. "
 * In this story, you must include how Percy got the cannon to fire at his school bus. That's it.

The Forth Grade Trip
"And before that, at my fourth-grade school, when we took a behind-the-scenes tour of the Marine World shark pool, I sort of hit the wrong lever on the catwalk and our class took an unplanned swim."
 * In this story, You must include how the animals at the aquarium react to Percy. Does anything strange happen leading up to everyone getting dunked.

The Cyclopes
"During third grade, a man in a black trench coat had stalked me on the playground. When the teachers threatened to call the police, he went away growling, but no one believed me when I told them that under his broad-brimmed hat, the man only had one eye, right in the middle of his head."
 * You must have this story take place from the Cyclop's point-of-view. Who sent him/her? Did he/she work for Poseidon or was he/she just looking for an easy meal?

Orientation Film
"I'm afraid our usual orientation film won't be sufficient."
 * For this, you must explain what an orientation film for a demigod would be like. *It can be like a script or you can write it as if you were a new demigod watching the film.
 * 500 words

Luke's Quests for the Golden Apple
I don't have a quote for this one, but it is pretty self explanatory. You are to write about Luke trying to get a golden apple. Did he have 2 other people come along? Did he have a prophecy? How did he get that scar?
 * It doesn't have to be the entire quest, You could start with Luke about to try and get an apple.
 * Luke has to get a scar.
 * Luke getting back to camp.

The Prom Dress
"Every August, the counselors pick the most important event of the summer, and they paint it on that year's beads. I've got Thalia's pine tree, a Greek trireme on fire, a centaur in a prom dress—now that was a weird summer...."
 * This one must include how a centaur ended up in a prom dress.

The Winter Solstice Field Trip
Once again, no quote for this one. This will be about Camp Half-Blood visiting Olympus during the Winter Solstice. The same trip that Luke stole the Helm of Darkness and the Master Bolt.
 * Luke must be shown stealing the helm and bolt.
 * Ares catching Luke.
 * Anything else is fine. I mean you can include the demigods meeting their parents or whatever. This is suggested, but isn't required.

Thalia's Stand
While this event is mentioned a lot, it is never fully explained. This story will revolve around Thalia, Luke, Annabeth, and Grover making the final sprint for Camp Half-Blood. All we know is that she told Grover to take Annabeth and Luke to camp while she held off the monsters
 * Thalia must be turned into a pine tree.
 * Grover must lead Annabeth and Luke to camp.

The Sea of Monsters
I'll start reading this story tomorrow (today is 2/14/2012), so I'll add them as I find them.
