LEO

' I am the man ' Leo shouted excited . They had just landed into the Roman Camp . He looked at the ground where stood a lot of people . Damn , Camp Half-Blood had merely half of the people around there . People… go figure . Some of them were dead , there was also an elephant and Percy Jackson . No , this guy wasn't considered a human being . He was invulnerable , famous , and well was recently being given the chance to become a god . Annabeth wouldn't shut up about his stories . The Minotaur , the Golden Fleece , the rescue of Artemis or Diana , the Labyrinth and last but surely not least Kronos . Yep , this teenager had , along with forty demigods , prevented Kronos invasion last summer and hold Manhattan . And then Gaea got pissed . Pretty pissed , actually .

And now they had to unite with their foes , who were the Romans , to defend the original Mountain Olympus , save the mankind and themselves . And hell yeah they were actually there . At last .

' Your turn ,Tia Callida , play your tricks . We are here , at your behalf , once more . In the hug of the Romans or more probably of their elephant . '

' Leo ? ' someone asked after hesitating . ' Could you like lower the staircase so that we can get off your ship ? ' . That was Annabeth , anxious , scared . It shouldn't be the easiest thing ever , preparing to meet your missing boyfriend who probably doesn't even remember . Right ?

' On it ' he replied . Leo got a controller out of his belt and pressed a button . The engine of the ship roared and some Romans backed off while drawing their swords .

' Sorry ' he shouted . Always picking the wrong one . Shit ! He pressed anxiously the green button on the left and the engine stopped . Then the yellow one and the stairs fell slowly and touched smoothly the ground .

' This is ridiculous ' someone yelled . Leo turned and saw a pale boy looking angrily at them . ' They are the enemies . Kill them . '

' Here we go ' Leo thought . He turned over Jason and gave him a look DON'T GO DOWN THERE . Before none of them could react , someone else shouted fiercely

' Stand down ' . Percy Jackson was giving orders ? Cool , this guy had always gained power in merely some days . The job would get easier done if they already have someone in their side .

Leo approached the others and together descended the stairs . Jason was the first one ground . They were grasps of anxiety or maybe excitement . Jason turned over the crowd and smiled . At least , tried to . The Romans seemed uncertain . Then a girl in heavy armor advanced . She was a cutie .

' Welcome back ' she said .

' Hello Reyna ' Jason said . ' Hi guys ' he added while looking at the campers.

Dead silence . Jason dropped his smile and got out of his gladius . He shouted

' I am back ' and lighting stroke the ground . Well after that there was a lot of cheering , hugs , talk , suspicion . reunions . Jason smiled or remained totally serious according to who he was talking too . After a few moments a Chinese babyface guy approached with a really beautiful girl . The girl glanced over him , then lowered her head in disbelief or anger or excitement or … all of these . She greeted Jason and hugged him . Leo was sure that Piper would drew her dagger so he told her silently that her and the China boy were holding hands . Then the girl turned over him and greeted him or at least tried too .

' And you are ? ' she asked like she didn't really cared for the answer .

' Leo Valdez , engineer man , nice meeting you ? ' .

' Alright , whatever ' .

' Gosh ' Leo muttered . ' Come on Pipes , tell me am I really that ugly ? '

If it wasn't for the China boy , Hazel would have fell on the ground . What ? How did he know her name ? He glanced over Jason who seemed confused and over them where Percy Jackson had a private conversation with Annabeth . Almost nose to nose .

' I hope their noses are clean ' Leo grumbled . He turned over that girl , Hazel and smiled apologizing ' Sorry beauty queen , I 'll visit a plastic sergeant . You paying? '

' Get lost , Sammy '

' Sorry ' Leo taunted . ' I didn't get you wished to change my name except for my face '

Tears made their appearance at the edges of her eyes .

' What's wrong with you ? ' China boy asked .

' Leo , you okay man ? Jason asked .

Leo felt his mind empty . He fell down and closed his eyes . There was a lot of gasps .

' What's going on ? Percy demanded .

' Is he alright ? ' Annabeth asked . Probably worried . But Leo didn't hear any of that . He was on the ground .

New Orleans 1940

Leo imagined a place where he would be pure white or pure black . Nothing in the middle . In other words , Leo imagined a place where he wouldn't get beaten up . Ha , prosperous . Deril looked at him with sympathy .

' Man , I really enjoy kicking your butt . Should you want that to stop , get away from here ' . He spoke English with difficulty , since it wasn't his native language .

' How big is your cock , you dick ? ' Leo asked pissed of .

' Daddy sized . Why ? '

' I was wondering whether or note you could turn it and stick it up your ass . That's why . ' Leo answered . Deril kicked him twice more , one in the face and the other one exactly at his liver .

' Leave him alone ' a girl shouted . Deril turned and fear spread around his face .

' Stay away witch ' . He sounded more like pleading .

' Get out of hear ' . Deril didn't need to hear that twice . The girl smiled at Leo .

' Come on ' she mused . ' Let's follow my advice ' .

They walked silently for a long time . When they arrived at the park , she finally turned and looked at him .

' So ' Leo started . ' Why did he call you witch ? '

Sadness filled her beautiful face . ' Long story . Why did he hit you ? '

A smile of joy formed upon his face .

' Oh gosh . Long story . '

The girl laughed . ' Come on we got all that wrong . I am Hazel Levasque . You ?'

Leo looked at her happily . ' Sammy . Sammy Valdez . '

She never did answer his question .

When he opened his eyes , Hazel was leaning over him . Leo looked at her scared . He whispered to her

' Who am I ? '

Hazel's eyes were now full of tears . ' I 'll tell you '.

' You should show him ' Percy offered .

' I … I m not sure . '

' It's the best ' China boy said .

He offered his hand at Leo who caught it after hesitating . He helped him up .
' Take care of my girl ' he said half-serious , half-amusing . Leo wasn't sure whether to consider that a warning or not .

' Sure ' he muttered uneasily .

' Come on ,… Leo , let's go at the temples ' . Hazel said . Even if he didn't understand a word he nodded . Hazel started walking and Leo followed her uncertain .

He didn't look back .
