Annabeth

I was pacing back and forth thinking over the plan that Jason had I had come up with on what we should do, when we reach Camp Jupiter. We had shared our plan with the cabin heads that had accompanied us from Camp half-blood. All of them had agreed that they should let Jason and I go talk to Roman's before they let the rest of the campers out, we had brought 2 campers from each cabin so we had roughly 50 campers aboard, of the Argo 2. Clarissa, the head of the Ares cabin had a different idea of an approach which mostly consisted of beating the Roman's and 'showing them who's the boss'.

Out of the many problems we have to face, which is a lot, considering if the Roman's attack us or not, the Argo 2 may malfunction because according to Leo the Argo 2 has been experiencing a few problems, or Clarissa may go ahead with her attack plan. Out of all of these problems and many more, the one problem that seemed to bother me the most was if Percy had regained his memory or not. I had been worried sick ever since I had found Percy's cabin empty 8 months ago.

Suddenly a hand was placed on my shoulder. Usually I would have attacked the offender, but then I heard the voice of my good friend Thalia.

"What are you doing out here Annabeth" asked Thalia, concern coating her words. I sighed knowing Thalia, I would have to answer or she won't stop bugging me.

"I'm worried that they Roman's may attack us" I answer her. She looked at me with a unimpressed expression and knowing look in her electric blue eyes. She looked young for her age with her choppy black hair, pale creamy skin, and a young face. She did not look her age of 20 something.

"Annabeth I know your worried about if Percy has gotten his memory back or not, well if not we can always beat the memories back into his kelp filled head" Thalia said with a smile gracing her face at the thought. I smiled with her even if it didn't bring me much comfort. I looked up to see Jason, Thalia's younger blood brother in the crows nest looking calm for a guy who was making himself a target. He had ruffled blond hair, ice blue eyes, he looked ruggedly handsome and in control—just like a son of Jupiter should.

Then I see Piper walking towards us with a hello kitty riddled tank top, dark blue skinny jeans, and hiking boots. Her chocolate brown hair that was cut choppy and uneven and blew in the breeze, with thin strands braided down the sides. She wore no makeup like she was trying not to draw attention to herself, but didn't work. She was beautiful, in a natural way. Her eyes seemed to chance color like a kaleidoscope-brown, blue, and green. She was so far the only child of Aphrodite that I could get along with since the rest of her sisters hit on Percy. That thought just brought up more insecurities in me What if Percy already has a new girl friend...It has been eight months already and he is hot, powerful, not to mention too sweet and kind for his own good, he was also very brave, but a small voice in the back of my head kept on reassuring me of his love and loyalty towards me."Ya, don't worry Annabeth were all here for you. Percy probably already has his memory back since Jason got his back not a while ago, plus I can feel the love you guys have for each other and its strong too, I can feel it." Her soothing comment soothed my fears more than Thalia's had. I mean she is a child of Aphrodite, she is supposed to feel these kids of things. Right?

I nod my head to her in gratitude.

As for the plan we were hoping that seeing Jason first the Roman's won't try to attack us, but hopefully Percy received the message we sent out earlier. We could now clearly see New Rome now and I'm blown away. This can really help me with the plans for Olympus I think. 'Hello Camp Half-blood and Sparky, this is your supreme captain speaking. We are close to Camp Jupiter we have, like, 'bout...25 minutes or so left so hang on tight'.Leo's voice sounds around the magnificent flying ship. Jason drifted down towards us, using his power over the winds.

"Um...Hey Annabeth, Thalia, Piper" greeted Jason wrapping his arm around Piper, and Piper leaned into him. He was wearing a purple toga over his purple Camp Jupiter tee, faded blue jeans, and sneakers. Jason looked at me then looked away quickly as if he was trying to shield himself from me. Not that I could blame him or anything, I know that I've been acting mad and have been snapping at everyone and anything that talked to me.

"What do you want to ask me Jason" I ask him. He looks at me surprised, so does Piper and Thalia.

"What is Percy like" He asks hesitantly. I suck in a breath and let it out. I looked at Jason like I was reading him. He acted like my seaweed brain, but had more brains, though my seaweed brain been through more Jason, they both hated being leaders, there practically brothers.

"Percy's like you." I smile at him. He looked like he didn't believe me, but he'll find out when he meets Percy.

"whats it this time. Our same aura of power, our incredible fighting skills, or our natural leadership instincts" Jason asks me paranoid. I look at Thalia and Piper shocked. I knew Jason was worried about Percy and him sharing the role of leader together, and him worrying over Percy being more powerful then him, but I didn't know to what extinct.

"No" Thalia answers. "you guys are more similar in terms of personality. Both of you are generous, brave, humble, and loyal to your friends. Plus Percy hate being a leader either, but he's good at it. Did you know that when he held the defence against Kornos' army, he had only 40 camper, 30 hunters, and a dozen nature spirits? And he was up against hundreds of thousands of monsters?"

"Really?" asks Jason still suspicious. "Do you really think that Percy will help me lead the quest" he asks with a raised eyebrow.

"Of course he will!" I tell him fiercely shocked that he could doubt MY seaweed brain. He backs away slightly.

"Sorry" he mumbles quietly "um...can you tell me about his quests too" I shake my head no.

"That's for all of us to discuss together" he looked peeved, but didn't say anything. Then Leo's voice sound through the speakers again announcing that we are about to land. So me and Jason head towards the gate that will open us to the Roman's. Percy I hope your okay and you remember me, and everything you've been through before this! I silently pray to the gods for extra luck and faced the lowering gate. Here I come Percy.
