It was a normal summer's day at camp half blood. Apollo's kids where shooting arrows, Athena's cabin was, looking over some game plays for the upcoming game of capture the flag, Aphrodite's kids where sitting and tanning and Aries kids where posted up and acting like block heads. Grover, a smaller than average satyr, in his mid twenties by look, with curly brown hair and horns that had grown to be two strong arches on his head, smiled at the scene. After 7 years, not much had changed, sure campers came and went, but nothing had really changed. Suddenly the serene scene gets disrupted when a set of twins swoop from the sky and collide into him.

"ouff" he grunts as the force knocks him to the ground.

"Sorry, Mr Grover!" A young girl no more than 12 says looking wide eyed when she realized whom she'd just mulled over. Her brother jumps up beside her.

"Yeah, really sorry Mr. Grover!" He echoes. Grover stands and dusts himself off. He looks at the pair and smiles. These are children of Aeolus, God of the wind, a minor god. The must have been practicing, their wind manipulation.

"It's fine" he ruffles the blonde hair of the boy and with that they run off. Grover smiles as his eyes fallow them to the new Acers of land and houses, and the strawberry field that has doubled in size and now also acts as an Orange orchard. He beams when His eyes rest on the Hermes cabin which is no longer at an over flow, for the simple fact that most, if not all, of the kids here have been claimed. Well okay, maybe things had changed a little. Grover makes his way through the camp to the big house. Earlier that morning, his fiancé Juniper had told him that Chiron wanted to speak with him around noon.

Grover comee to the top of the hill and looks over at the porch on the big cabin, Sure enough there stands Chiron, waiting for him. Chiron, a white Centaur and director of the camp, waves at him as he comes into view. The years had been very kind to Grover's friend and mentor. He still has the wisdom and patience to deal with every half blood that comes though the entrance of the camp, and the heart to see them all for who they are and what they can be.

"Grover." Chiron's warm voice greets him when he makes it to the porch steps. "How is the wedding planing coming along?" He asks. Grover groans but smiles.

"Juniper is driving me up the wall about Venues and due veys, and all these other words I'm ashamed to say I know." Chiron just smiles, and places a hand on his shoulder.

"When you see her in that wedding dress it will be well worth it young friend. " He beams as he recalls years of watching not one Grover Grow and mature, but also the relationship he had with Juniper blossom into a beautiful love.. "Have you heard from Percy?" He asked.

"Uh, yeah…I last I heard he was on a marine biology field study of the Atlantic." Chiron nodded as if he was considering something.

"And Annabeth?"

"Um…she's studying abroad in Tokyo …why?" Chiron was silent for a while.

"Grover, I need your help." He starts of looking the satyr in the eyes. "I have been informed that there are some demigods that have been recently discovered." Grover was confussed. New demigods where being discovered ever other week, and once discovered they where escorted to the camp, that's how it usually worked.

"So what's the problem?" Grover asks. A raspy, grumbling voice answers his question.

"Because these aren't just normal Demigod's." Dionysus, the black haired, stocky and never in a good mood god of wince came forth from the big white door behind them. "Hello Gilbert" He says gesturing an almost wave with the hand that held his diet coke. After years and years of being at camp Half blood Dionysus had yet to call him by his, or any camper current or former, by the correct name. "There are 5 of them; We've made arrangements for you to pick them up at Central Park , they should get there about 2 tomorrow."

"Wait….who…what?" Grover said still a little confused about exactly what they where asking him to do.

"Really boy, I know you've never been the sharpest knife in the armory but at least try to keep up." He grumbles at him.

"These demigods are very special cases. Due to certain circumstances of birth there very existence is… problematic." Chiron interrupts, Grover furrows a brow.

"Problematic?" He repeats.

"They where never suppose to be born, boy. For one reason or another, they're parents where not meant to conceive but did. And so because of this they are a disgrace to the very gods that begot them." Grover wrapped his horned head around the Centaurs words. He sighed. His friend Percy's birth had been of the same nature, and Thalia's and Nico's but he thought Percy put an end to all this years ago. The gods had promised Percy that every demigod would be claimed. and even thought it took years to find them and more and more where pouring in, Grover thought that things where getting better. Maybe he was wrong. Chiron sees the debate in Grover's eyes.

"Grover, the god's are trying, but the can sometimes make mistakes." He starts out but Dionysus's sharp glance caches him. "Grover, we called you because we need your help. We need you to escort these demigods safely to camp. Now I do realize it's been a while since you've acted as anyone's guardian but to be quite honest I needed some one I could trust." Chiron turns and looks out into the distance. "These demigods have been hidden for a very long time, and very well. I can only assume that the motivations there parents had for hiding them where exceptionally good ones."

"Meaning…?" Grover baits when Chiron's monologue ends.

Dionysus's voice interrupts.

"Meaning that whatever reasons there where for these brats not to exist, are still out there, which makes bringing them here exceptionally dangerous and a very bad idea." He tosses Chiron a look that testifies to his clear objection "If not for Chiron I would have just let um find there way on their own." Grover is unsurprised by the god's far from concerned attitude towards the young hero's. He looks out at the near by camp. A retrieval mission, he hadn't had one those for a long time. His most memorable was Percy Jackson's, his best friends. He begins to think, looking out at the children playing with the nymphs and other satyrs. Grover had to admit, if he hadn't of brought Percy here his friend might not have lived passed his thirteenth summer.

"Alright," Grover finally answers as he turns back to Chiron with a slight smiled curling his lips. Chiron nods his appreciation and clasp Grover's shoulders with two thick hands.

"Wonderful, You'll have to leave early in the morning if you're going to drive all the way to Central Park by 8." He said walking the satyr of the porch. "I'll let you in on the details tomorrow; get a good night rest for tonight."

"Rest? Ha! I have to figure out how I'm going to explain this to Juniper!" He says running his hands threw his curly locks and walking off. Chiron watches him trudge of with a slight smile.

"You didn't tell him the prophecy Chiron." Dionysus shake his head and takes a seat at the card table next to the porch banister. Chiron sighs.

"I didn't feel the need to."

"Well" the god chuckles. "If I where going to die I think I'd want to be told."

"They'er not all going to die." Chiron insistes.

"Have you forgotten the word Rebecca spoke?"

Five conceived in shame

Disgracing the place form which they came

And when all is said and done

Unto you there shall only be one

The words replay them selves to him.

"No I have not forgotten Rachel's words but that still means there is one who will make it. If that one makes it, it will all be worth while." He insist turning to his company.

"I suppose" Dionysus says kicking back in his chair.

"I know"
