Chapter 1: Annabeth
I stood at the bow of the Argo II and the wind ripped through my hair. A loud beep came through the sound system.
"This is the Supreme Commander of the Argo II speaking. We will be arriving at the Roman Camp in 10 minutes. Prepare for landing. Leo out! Peace!" Leo said over the speakers.
I chuckle at his love for his 'title'. I hear footsteps behind me so I turn around. Piper is walking towards me.
"Hey." I say.
"You ready?" she asks me.
"Yea, but I'm nervous. What if he doesn't remember me? What if he has a new girlfriend?"
"I wouldn't worry if I were you, you told me that Percy's fatal flaw was loyalty. I'm sure he'll be loyal to you. But, I do know how you feel."
I had totally forgotten. Piper was worried that Jason would have a girlfriend back in New Rome, one he hadn't even remembered. I had been going on and on about how nervous I was, and I hadn't even thought that she felt the same way, maybe even worse.
"Oh my gods, Piper. I'm so sorry, I forgot. You're worried about Jason's other life back in New Rome. I really am sorry.
"It's no problem. We'll find out soon enough won't we?"
We walked up to the cockpit where Leo and Jason were talking.
"How many more minutes until we land, Repair Boy?" Piper teased.
"Not very long, Beauty Queen. I can see the camp now." He responded with a smirk.
I hadn't even noticed that we could see it, but when I looked out the window sure enough, it was there. It was beautiful. There were so many architectural details in each building, it made me stop in awe. I shook my head and returned to reality. Percy. Percy. Only a few more minutes until I get to see Percy! I thought to myself. Eight months! That's how long it had been since I last saw him. I was gonna get Hera for that. I missed him so much. His warm embrace, the way he smelled just like a calm sea breeze, his stunning green eyes, and his crooked smile. Oh, sometimes it hurt to think about him. A loud voice jerked me back from my thoughts.
"Where should I land, Jason?" Leo asked.
"Umm, I think right in that open field. Yes, there I just remembered, that's the Field of Mars." Jason replied.
"Alrighty then, here goes nothing!"
He pressed a lot of buttons and slowly pushed the wheel (it looked more like a plane steering wheel) down.
"Come on baby, it's your time to shine" Leo said to the ship.
"See, this is why we call you Repair Boy, you talk to your creations... Who else does that?" Piper jokingly said with her perfect smile.
"Shut up, Beauty Queen! I'm trying to focus here!"
We landed with a loud thud. Well, I thought, here I go as I stepped off the ship.
Well? Did you like it? Hate it? Love it? This is my first Fan Fiction, and I hate waiting for other people to update so I promise I will update at least 3 times a week.
