Percy POV
'Come on, let me introduce you to my other family.' I look up at the warship, an excited feeling overwhelming me. Annabeth is on that ship, and I am only moments away from seeing her! Suddenly, I hear a crash, the warship hits the corner of a building as it is landing, and goes down a little faster than is obviously planned. As soon as it is safely on the ground and the ramp is lowered, a Latino boy races off to check the damage of the boat, pulling tools out of his tool belt as he goes. 'Child of Hephaestus', I think absently, although he doesn't look like attention brought back to the gangplank, i see a blonde boy that I don't recognize, appear with a familiar hunter.
"Thalia!" I am thankfully near the front, so she hears me over the cries of "Jason!" She grabs Jason's wrist and pulls him with her as she gives me a hug.
"Kelp-head, Annabeth is gonna kill you!"
"Missed you too, Pinecone-face. This is Hazel, daughter of Pluto, Nico's half-sister," Hazel looks confused as to how Thalia would know Nico, "and Frank, son of Mars." Jason looks at Thalia, "Wow, Thal, I might need to use that one now!" Thalia put him in a headlock and says,
"And may I introduce my baby brother?"
Jason makes a sound of protest and manages to get out of her grasp. "I'm not your baby brother! I'm sixteen!"
"Too bad!" I was still processing,
"Thalia, you have a brother?" at the same time, "Jason, you have a sister?" from Hazel.
"More on that later, Jason has some people to see, and you, Kelp-head, are going to want to see someone!" They leave, and I see a very pretty girl catch up with them and take Jason's hand. I suddenly realize that we were the only ones mingling between the camps. I turn back to the boat, just in time to hear, "PERRRRCCYYYYY!" and get tackled by Grover. Many Romans are shocked to see a satyr-faun, whatever, on board the ship.
"Hey, G-Man!"
"Perrcy!" he bleats, " I missed you!"
"Missed you too, Grover!" He moves away, and I hear a, "Hey, Prissy! Nice toga!"
"Great to see you too, Clarisse!" Most of the Romans look shocked that the Greek demigods are so unorganized, but I feel right at home. I see the Stolls trying to trip various people coming out of the boat, but they back off when a blonde girl comes out, scanning the crowd frantically. All of the Greeks are still near the boat and they quiet down, while the Romans are confused why the others have gotten so quiet. Unconsciously, I take a step forward and she sees me. Her eyes widen, and she moves slowly, until she is within arms reach.
Annabeth slaps me across the face, and the Romans' hands shift towards their weapons, just in case. I wave my hand to relax them and turn back to Annabeth, ready to take whatever she has. She has a lot.
"PERCY JACKSON! HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO ME? YOU DISSAPEAR FOR MONTHS AND WORRY ME TO DEATH!" wow, her voice can get shrill. I rub my ears. "YOU ARE SUCH A-SUCH A-such a Seaweed Brain" she murmurs that last part and, I reach over and kiss her. She responds automatically, and cheers break out from the entire Camp Half-Blood that was on the ship, maybe twenty people, and a few of my friends, from the Roman camp, (i.e. Hazel and Frank) burst into applause.
"Finally! She was driving us all insane with her worrying!" Thalia says. Everyone laughs a bit, and I take Annabeth's hand, and motion for Hazel and Frank to come over. They do, and Hazel says, "So this is Annabeth! I'm Hazel, and this is Frank." They smile and exchange greetings, when,
"Annabeth!" Tyson is running towards us, Ella fluttering behind him. "Annabeth! You are here! This is Ella! Ella is nice! And pretty!" Annabeth chuckles.
"It's nice to meet you, Ella,"
"Tyson nice. Strong. Page 34 of How to Train Your Dog, Use a strong and commanding voice when instructing your dog. Dog-Mans best friend. Friends, ten seasons, 1994-2004. Ella likes her friends." Annabeth looks at me questioningly.
"I'll explain later," I murmur. "Come on, let's catch up somewhere."
I lead the way into New Rome, ready to give her the Grand Tour.
Fin.
Kinda sucky ending, but thanks for reading! Thanks for bearing with me! Please review!
