The adventures of Leo and Calypso

Chapter 1: Life is a wonderful thing

Disclaimer: I do not own PJO or HoO. Rick Riordan, the one that created the awesomeness that is Leo Valdez, does.

(A/N) This is my first fic, so if you have any criticism for me it really helps. Also, I expect to update roughly once every 2 weeks, maybe.

Leo woke up with a splitting headache. Getting blown up can definitely do that to you. Everything hurt, even (somehow) his hair. He was flying on the back of his robot dragon while on fire. Yup, a regular day for a demigod child of Hephaestus. "Mom, just five more minutes."

Leo said. Festus made a loud creaking noise. Leo sat up, looked at Festus and said, "You are definitely not my mom." Leo felt glad to be alive. Actually, he felt ecstatic. He hadn't realised it until now, but life was precious. When he was with his friends and was in danger of losing his life he would be scared at some points, though he did his best to hide it by making jokes. But on the inside, he was still scared. As he looked up to get his bearings, he saw that he was in the middle of nowhere, but somehow, he recognized the ocean below him, he had woken up flying in this exact same spot before. He had just been blasted off his ship by Khione. "Hey Festus, I think I know where we are!" Festus made a series of creaking noises. Crreeeak, Craaackk. "Oh right! You weren't with me when it happened. Well, we're going to Calypso's island"

When they were right over the island Leo reached into his toolbelt and grabbed some breath mints, (Just in case) and he attempted, (and failed) to make his hair look better. He was so excited. He just hoped Calypso didn't hate him now. After all, he had promised to come back and it had been a while. As they flew over Calypso's island, he saw that it looked the same as it had the last time he had appeared over the island. "Okay Festus, lets land."

When they landed, Leo smelled the familiar scent of Calypso immediately. He ran around looking for her yelling, "Calypso, Calypso, Calypso!" until he saw something that stopped him in his tracks. She was beautiful. The girl he had missed for such a long time. They looked at each other for a while until Calypso said, "You're an idiot." and punched him in the face.

(A/N) Hope you all enjoyed the first chapter. It took less time than I expected to write it. Anyways, If you have any suggestions, review or comment.
