this is my first story so only constructive critisism.
ANNABETH
As we neared the camp I scanned the group of demigods until finally I saw was standing there looking as handsome as ever, even if he was wearing the most ridiculous looking toga ever. I alwas imagined us having a romantic reunion like they do in all the movies, but no we had to meet right after they had a war against polybotes and while I am riding a magical flying dragon-headed boat and have to spend every freaking moment worrying about him!
"You got your memory back yet?" I asked Jason.
"No, and you asked me that like thirty seconds ago." Jason said with an annoyed look.
"We are landing in three minutes." Leo shouted before I could even make a witty remark to Jason.
"Annabeth, since I can charmspeak should I get out with you to keep them calm?" Piper asked
"Sure, I geuss." Just then about a hundred or so Romans cheered then rushed to the boat's masthead.
"Oh my gods! Leave us alone!" I heard Piper scream when a climbing roman fell against her and wouldn't get off.
Suddenly Percy shot up the side of the ship on a tower of water and bellowed for the romans to stop. Then he turned and hugged me so tight I could barely breathe but strangely I didn't need the oxegyn to be happy right now. He pulled away a second later and kissed me like he never has before. In those ten seconds I was in bliss and when he pulled away I was totally let down because I hoped it would go on longer.
"Hey" Percy said.
"Hey! I haven't seen you in eight months and all you do is briefly kiss me and say hey!" he started backing away like he was scared (which was a good choice considering I didn't finish yet.) "come here you dope."
I hugged and kissed him like we were alone, which we weren't. We realized everyone was staring after some tiny, annoying blond kid who was probably 18 or so but looked like a 10 year old whacked me on the back of the head and laughed. Percy immediately told him told him to go to Reyna and cleared his throat then he turned to the roman demigods.
"People of New Rome, I Percy Jackson, your praetor, accept the greeks into our home. Reyna what do you think?"
"We will take them in as long as they dont hurt any of us romans."
At this there was a collective murmur through the crowds. Percy turned towards me and grinned from ear to ear. All I did was raise an eyebrow and he said:
"I'm praetor remember."
"You never told me that."
"ummm... Well yeah you just got here."
"Whatever seaweed-brain." I said with a smirk.
He just rolled his eyes and we fell into a fit of giggles.
As I looked around I knew that even if he wasn't here now I would know that he was here recently. Everything, everywhere was ripped up and strewn across the camp. The only place not destroyed was way behind us and something about it was important to these romans.
I turned back to Percy because he asked me how Jason was and then we heard an explosion. Percy immediately turned to four buildings that I had not noticed before crumpled. We ran towards the wreckage and I saw...
