First PJO fanfic so don't be too hard. Please Review and reply to my questions! Enjoy!
Prologue:
He swirled, sidestepped, slashed at the spear. The shaft gave away, to the might of Riptide and Percy Jackson. He pulled the bronze blade upwards and rested it on the shoulder of his opponent. "Ha!" Percy smirked. "Two times in a row!" he taunted Frank, who had broken his second pilum of the day. Annabeth cheered for him, and Percy ran towards her and they met in a tight embrace. "Once more! I'll beat you up this time." "Okay, but you're the one who is going to be beat up!"
Frank took up his defensive stance. He had a trick up his sleeve this time. Percy started first, lunging towards him, glowing sword in hand. Time seemed to slow down, as Frank's 'son of Mars' instincts kicked up, and he began imagining him as the eagle he was capable of being. Fluid energy with adrenaline flowed though his bloodstream. He became smaller, his large legs turning into sharp talons and his clumsy arms turning into the sharp silent wings. His hair grew from everywhere, changing color and morphing into feathers. The change was a fluid transaction, and he began to see things with supernatural eyesight. He was Frank the Bald Eagle.
Frank flapped his wings once, just to remain at Percy's height and slashed and snapped with his claws, winging his way towards the diving-and –ducking Percy. "Hey! No fair! I can't—" was the only thing he could say before his head was whacked by Frank's already-changing grizzly bear arm. It left Percy unconscious.
"No! Why did you do that?" shouted Annabeth, running towards Frank's almost human form and her boyfriend, who was lying on the wooden floor. Frank didn't have a chance to react before he felt the steely chill of Annabeth's dagger resting under his chin. Frank sighed. Back to square one with the greacus roman thing. "Look, I didn't want to hurt him, I was just trying to – '' "kill him!"
"Hey guys, not going to listen to me, huh? I'm alright." Came Percy, who had just stood up and was rubbing his bruised cheek. "Come on, wise girl, he did it by mistake. Leave it."
Jason, Piper, Leo and Annabeth had been chosen to go to Rome, and then to Greece. They had reached camp Jupiter in about 3 hours, pretty fast for a 25 ton warship clad in shields flamethrowers, weapons, and other things, all made of Celestial Bronze. All in all, the ARGO II rocked. They had reached Jupiter, had an exchange of leaders, Jason being welcomed to his family and Percy to his. A long and boring 'senate meeting' was held to decide that Frank, Hazel, and Percy would accompany the four from Camp Half-Blood. They would go to their first destination, Rome, by using the Little Tiber, which would flow to Rome, since it was the place where the mighty river originated. This idea of the wise girl was confirmed by seaweed brain.
And now, they were on course the Little Tiber heading for: Destination Rome!
