I was thinking about what might've gone down when Reyna talked to Venus like Jason mentioned in the MoA and BOOM! This popped up. I apologize for any of them seeming ooc. It starts with Reyna appearing at Venus's tea table, for lack of better description.

Do I really have to? Alright, alright. I don't own, it all belongs to Rick Riordan.

Enjoy!

She was suddenly sitting at a small outdoor café table set with what looked like afternoon tea. A voice snapped her to attention.

"Reyna! Darling, I've been expecting you!"

"Lady Venus?"

The goddess was wearing a pink Southern Belle outfit, though it looked more like a costume. It was complete with a delicate fan and white as snow gloves. Her face was an ever-changing mirage. Like a slideshow of the worlds most beautiful supermodels.

"Yes dear. Oh my! You do look like you mother!"

Reyna couldn't tell if that was a compliment or not so she just nodded.

"Well, have some tea and scones! They're not here for decor, you know."

After some one sided conversing on Venus's part and quite a bit of nodding on Reyna's, Venus's face turned serious.

"Alright, enough pleasantries. We have business to discuss. I see you have been getting quite close with a certain son of Jupiter."

"What? No, I-"

"Save it dear. I am the goddess of love after all and one can obviously see the chemistry. What a shame, you make such a cute couple, but Juno's orders no less."

Her face took on a pondering look and she seemed to be lost in thought.

"Um, Lady Venus?"

"Hmm?"

"What exactly are you talking about?"

Suddenly she didn't look so silly with her pink frills and ruffles. Her beauty had taken a darker look. She was beautiful in the way an explosion was.

"Stay away from him. Don't get too close. I have other plans for him. You will have dodged a potentially deadly bullet."

"What?"

"You heard me. And if you get in the way, I can't promise you'll be spared."

Reyna could tell that she wasn't talking about physical injuries.

"Juno also mention something about glue and uniting two forces." She waved her hand dismissively.

"But the point is that you shouldn't get too close. I'm interfering more than I should just by telling you this."

She cast a nervous glance at the sky. "Of course you can't tell anyone. Otherwise we would be in some serious trouble."

"Lady Venus, I don't-"

"Oh you're a smart one Reyna. You'll figure it out. Now go back to your quest! He's getting worried now. And remember what I said!"

She snapped her fingers and teleported Reyna back to her and Jason's make-shift camp.

"Reyna! You're back! What happened? Are you oka-," started Jason, but he was cut off by Reyna.
"Yeah, I'm fine," she said, turning away from him without another word. 'Don't get to close'. Venus's warning rang through her mind. After that, Reyna was never the same.

So? Did you like it? Hate it? Make my day and review? Even a simple good, bad, or okay would be great! But constructive criticism would be most appreciated! Thank you!
