I
Annabeth
Annabeth leaned over the starboard side of the Argo II, ignoring the wind that whipped around her face, blowing her hair every which way. She only had thoughts for one person.
Percy. Oh gods, how she had missed him. His windblown black hair, his beautiful eyes like the ocean, the annoying side smile, where the left side of his mouth rose just a little higher than the right. His laugh, the one that seemed to light up the world when he was with her. When he was with her…the small smile that had accumulated on her face dropped immediately. Where was he now? Was he even with the Romans? Sally had mentioned something about Percy calling her from Alaska. What if he was still there? What if he didn't remember her? Or worse, what if he was dead? She closed her eyes in pain. He can't be. He just can't.
She was shook out of her reverie by a tap on the shoulder. She spun around, dagger out in front of her, but it was just Leo. He held up his hands, in a surrender of peace. "Whoa, Annabeth, I come in peace!" She lowered her dagger with an apologetic look. "Sorry Leo, demigod reflex." He just grinned at her. "C'mon, Jason's called a meeting."

The conference room was one of Annabeth's favorite spots on the ship. It was just like Camp Half-Bloods', ping-pong table and all. Everyone else was already seated. There was Jason, Piper, and Thalia, who Artemis had sent so she could recruit more campers, and so she could see Percy again. Grover had wanted to come as well, but he was called to Upstate New York. Apparently there were problems with revolts from evil nature spirits, and a Lord of the Wild was badly needed.
She frowned in annoyance, noticing that Jason had taken the spot at the head of the table. That was Percy's spot. Before she could say anything, he spoke, "Okay guys, so according to Leo, we'll be arriving at Camp Jupiter in fifteen minutes." He had his brow furrowed, as if he was trying to remember something. "The legion won't fire on us unless they are ordered by Reyna." "Is Reyna the leader?" Annabeth asked. She noticed how Jason uncomfortably glanced at Piper as he spoke about her. She would ask him later. Jason nodded. "Yes, she is one of the Praetors. I am the other one, unless I was replaced by someone else. But anyways, let's go over the game plan."
Annabeth took over from there, "Jason goes out first and speaks to the Praetor or Praetors. Make sure you tell them exactly how many demigods are in the ship so that they don't get suspicious. Give the signal when it's safe and the rest of us will come out." She turned to Piper, "Don't use charmspeak unless you need to. The Romans may suspect sorcery. And if you do, keep it to a low. And I'm assuming everyone remembers the backup plan?" They all nodded.
Leo's watch beeped. "Looks like we're about to land." Annabeth's heart raced. After so long, she was finally going to see him again. Please be there Seaweed Brain.

So, yeah. The book has been out for quite some time but I really want to write a fanfic for it. This is also my very first fanfic, so please be easy on me!
I am a huge Percy fan, btw, so don't be surprised if I favor him a lot. ;)
This was more of an intro, so the following chapters should be MUCH longer, especially as the plot thickens.
