If it wasn't for all of the Romans, Annabeth would've run towards Percy and thrown herself in his arms the moment she was on the land of New Rome.
She couldn't get her eyes off Percy. He was standing right next to his new buddies. The girl with the helmet was looking at Leo like he wasn't supposed to be there, which Annabeth thought was weird.
The girl with the helmet murmured something to Percy and pointed at Leo. It looked like she was saying something like, "Sammy."
Annabeth didn't get to think about that before all the Romans pointed at her, Jason, Leo and Piper with their weapons, and they didn't seem ready to listen. Percy looked at Annabeth like he couldn't believe she was there.
"At least they haven't attacked us, yet." Jason murmured quietly. Annabeth wasn't sure if it was supposed to be funny, but she really didn't think it was funny.
Then Jason coughed and said loudly, "Hi, everyone. Will you please lower your weapons? We just want to talk to you. It seems like it's time for Greeks and Romans to work together."
Nothing happened.
"Would you please lower your weapon?" Leo asked. "It's not like we've armed or anything."
Nothing happened.
"Lower your weapons," Piper said to the Romans, "We come in peace as Jason said."
"Don't you try to charmspeak us, daughter of Aphrodite!" Terminus commanded.
"Look," Jason said. "What Piper said istrue. We don't want to fight."
"Why should we believe you?" a boy with blond hair demanded.
"They're outnumbered, Octavian." a girl with brown, long hair said. She wore a purple praetor-cape and stood between Percy and the girl with the helmet. She looked at Jason, the way Annabeth were looking at Percy; desperate to be in his arms. "It'll be very stupid of them. Plus, it's Jason. He wouldn't attack us."
"What about the ship?" Octavian demanded. "It could be filled with Greeks."
"It's not." Jason promised. "You can trust us in that."
"But you're…"
"Greeks?" Percy said. "So am I. I'd know if they were going to attack us."
"How?" Octavian asked.
Percy didn't answer the question. He just looked at Annabeth. "Hi, Annabeth,"
"Percy," Annabeth said. She started to run.
"Annabeth!" Jason called. "I wouldn't do that!"
Annabeth didn't care. She ran over to Percy and gave him a fierce hug. "I've missed you."
"Percy?" the other praetor said and looked at Annabeth. "Who is she?"
"This," Percy announced, "is Annabeth Chase, daughter of Athena. My girlfriend from Camp Half-blood. This is why I know, that the Greeks will not attack."
"I don't understand." the other praetor said.
"Annabeth and Percy are sort of leaders in Camp Half-blood. Not officially, but everybody listens to them. As Percy said, Annabeth's the daughter of Athena, Greek goddess of Battle Strategy. She knows better than to attack you."
The other praetor walked over to Jason and hugged him, then she let go of him.
"Jason," she said. "Who are the two others?"
Piper looked at Jason and then at the praetor with pain in her eyes. "I'm Piper McLean and this…"
"I'm Leo Valdez." Leo interrupted. "Son of Hephaestus and Supreme Commander of Argo II."
The girl with the helmet looked confused.
"Who are you?" Piper asked the praetor.
"I am Reyna, daughter of Bellona and praetor of the twelfth legion." the praetor said. Then she nodded towards Percy's Roman friends. "That is Hazel, daughter of Pluto and Frank, son of Mars."
The girl, Hazel took one step towards Leo. She looked like she was going to say something but Percy shook his head. "Wait." he mimed.
Reyna looked asking at Hazel and Percy. So did Annabeth, Leo and everybody else. Percy just shrugged.
I hope you like my version of the Percabeth Reunion, but I really have no idea what is going to happen. We just got to wait and see.
