Hello hello hello! This is the sequel to Betrayed by Home, another story by yours truly. Enjoy!

Annabeth

December, January, February, March, April, and May fly by. June comes, along with summer. Juli, Justin, and now Lily love to play outside on the new swing set Leo made. Most of us have stayed here in our giant house, but Nico and Rachel have left, back to camp to help out. My baby bump is pretty big, since I only have three months left.

Days go by peacefully. Most of us volunteer in town or stay around here and watch the kids.

It was like that until the first Friday of April.

Piper and I were out in the backyard, watching the kids play an unfair game of tag and handing Emily toys to chew on. Percy was at the pool in town, Jason in the house, and the others scattered around.

"Juli! Come back!" Justin yells, giving chase on short legs. Lily giggles and tries to keep up with them, although she never can.

"Have you talked about names yet?" Piper asks me.

I shrug. "Not really. We think we're going to wait until they're born."
She nods. "I get what you mean. See what kind of person they look like. There's so many good girl names to go along with Justin."
I snort. "And when someone else has a boy, your girl will go with them."
"Oh, please," She groans. "Not another Justin and Juli situation."
Justin and Juli have matching rings that they wear from their 'weddin' four months ago. They have yet to give up with it.

The kids keep playing, occasionally coming over to sit on our laps for a drink or for a kiss.

"When is Percy getting back?" The air is getting noticeably cooler and darker.

I frown. "He should be back by now-"
"Foolish girls," A voice echoes around the yard. We scramble to our feet and grab our weapons. We recognize that voice. "I have waited too long for my revenge."
"Jason!" Piper yells, since two pregnant women and four kids aren't much match for a goddess.

"Oh, he's already been taken care of. As have the others."
"What did you do?" She screams.

Only laughs reply. Suddenly I sway on my feet, my eyelids lowering.

"Piper..." I mumble. And then my knees buckle, making me fall as darkness takes over.

It's still dark when I wake up. I sit up slowly, rubbing my stomach. There's a slumped form in a bed next to mine and a little blonde head poking up beside it. Both figures are moving with breaths, so I stumble out of bed and to the door.

I peer out of the peephole, and then throw it open. We're in a motel sitting on a rainy parking lot. A few cars are parked near, and I stare at them to make sure we're still in New Jersey.

Washington. They all say Washington.

I draw back, suddenly dizzy.

"Percy," I call as I make my way back to the beds. "Percy, she transported us across the country-" I freeze.

Percy doesn't have a golden sword. My gaze slowly flicks back to the bed, where the figure there is just opening his eyes.

Percy doesn't have blue eyes.

"Jason?" I gasp.

"Annabeth?" He rubs his eyes.
I slap my hips, searching for my phone.

"No, no, no!" I say desperately as I come up empty. There aren't any bags anywhere, nothing that looks familiar.

"Dammit," I swear. But then Jason leans over, pulling the blanket back from the other form there.

Juli isn't that little.

"Emily?"

I sink to the floor, kneading my eyes.

"Annabeth, what happened?" Jason asks.

"Hera," I spit. "Piper and I were in the backyard, and then we heard her, and she was talking about revenge. And then...and then I woke up here."
He slides off the bed. "Maybe they're in the next rooms...maybe..."

I shake my head. "I don't think so. Feel your pockets. She took everything, right? I've only got twenty bucks."
He does as I say, and finds the same amount.

"I'm still going to go check," He says. And then he's gone.

Emily fusses a little bit.

"Hey, baby," I mumble, sitting on the floor in front of her. She frowns at me. "I know I'm not your mom. We're trying to find her."
It takes Jason a few minutes, but then he comes back, his hair soaked.

"They're gone," He says.
