Hey peeps! New story for meeeeeee! Yay!
Disclaimer: I don't own pjo or rotg.
Jack
Jack was overworked. It was winter, and nearing Christmas. He was flying 'round the world, causing blizzards in Siberia, hail in Japan, and snow days in the Americas… plus he was tired. REALY TIRED. He had been up at a meeting of the guardians yesterday night, and THEN he had gone, as promised, to see Jamie. A guardian always kept his promises, right? He looked down at the Atlantic Ocean, his vision starting to swim. He lost concentration, and tumbled down into the sea. The last thing he saw before he blacked out was a boy with jet-black hair and startling green eyes.
Percy
Percy had gone for a swim. Yeah, it was the middle of winter, but… as the son of Poseidon, water temperature didn't bother him. School was getting to him, Annabeth was in San Francisco, and… he was just fed up. He needed to get away for a while. Swimming had soothed his nerves, and he was in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean in a matter of minutes. He surfaced, relishing the peace and quiet… until he saw the boy fall out of the sky.
Bunny
Bunny growled in annoyance and checked his watch again. Jack was 20 minutes late. It was bunny's least favorite season, and he really SHOULD be on his island with his eggs. But NO, he had to be at this meeting, waiting for Jack Frost to show up. "He must not have seen the northern lights."Said Santa, looking a bit worried. "He must have." Said Tooth, soothingly. "He's just a little late." But the guardians were still worried… Jack was late sometimes, but never THIS late.
Percy
Percy dove after the boy, who was sinking like a rock. He was grasping a stick in his hand… a staff? Percy caught the boy, and swam to the nearest sea-cave he saw. He cleared the water out of the cave and replaced it with oxygen, so the boy could breathe. He put down the boy, and put a hand to his head, checking for fever like Chiron had taught him. Definitely feverish. Percy sat down next to the boy, tensing every time the boy said something or whimpered in his sleep. At least Percy knew he was still alive.
Santa
Santa was getting worried. Jack was an hour and a half late. He looked around. "well, guess we're just going to have to go get him." Said Bunny, clearly annoyed. Santa nodded. "To the sleigh!"
Isn't Percy awesome? I don't know whether Jack can get sick or not, but it makes a good storyline.
