A/N: Thanks for the comments! They are always great to get : ) As requested, an update. I hope it goes well. I'm going to try something that I have never done before. Write in Piper's POV! I was never fond of her group or Hazel or Frank, so I may not have all my facts straight, but deal with it!

It will be …an adventure… Enjoy!

Piper's POV:

I had just watched my best friend, other than Jason and Leo, and the boy of her life fall into the depths of Tartarus. I didn't know what to do except try and make sure everybody else was doing alright. I couldn't help but ask myself if I were the one it the hole, would Jason fall for me?

My shoulder still hurt pretty badly but I ate some ambrosia squares and that was starting to dull the pain. Jason was already sleeping in his bunk. I went to his room and opened the door a crack, just to see that he was still peacefully sleeping. I smiled to myself and shut the door to his snores.

Walking down the hallway a bit more, I ran into Frank. He was leaning up against the doorframe to Hazel's room. I walked up to Frank and looked in the room. Frank knew I was there before I said anything.

"How are you Piper?" He grumbled. It sounded like a bit of anger. I couldn't blame him. He just lost his other best friend in a hole to Tartarus. And Hazel and Nico had to watch it. His arms were crossed and his baby face looked quite stern.

I looked in the door. Nico and Hazel were talking while he was drinking Nectar. Nico was so pale that I had to wonder if he was like that his whole life.

"I'm alright. How about you?" I asked. Frank shrugged his shoulders and didn't let his eyes leave Hazel.

"Everything's going to be alright." I wondered if the charm speak I had just used in my voice was meant for Frank or me. He nodded sadly and watched as Hazel helped patch up Nico.

I continued to the upper deck. Coach Hedge was in his room. The door was open a tiny crack and I could hear goat murmurs and the high volume of a boxing match on the television.

On the top, the wind was softly whipping through my hair. It gave me the chills and so I wrapped my arms around myself and went to go see Leo.

He was sitting at the main control station barely keeping his eyes open. The wii remotes were almost falling out of his hands. His curly hair was blowing in the wind.

"Hey, Leo," I said, approaching his side. He jumped with a start, one hand going to his tool belt and the other to the wii remote.

"Oh, Piper. Hey." He said sluggishly.

"Repair boy, were you sleeping on the job?" I smiled at him.

"Oh no, no, no, I was not. Would supreme commander-" He tried to conceal a yawn. "-Be sleeping on duty? Nope."

"Leo, you should get some sleep. Does this thing have an automatic pilot?" I asked.

"I can't."

"Can't what?"

"Can't go to sleep. Piper it was all my fault what happened to Annabeth and Percy. If I hadn't opened that fortune cookie…" He trailed off with tiredness as his eyelids started to slip.

"Leo, don't blame yourself. If we need someone to blame, it's Gaea. She is responsible for all these bad things coming to light." I said with a hint of charm speak, even though I knew all of us had done a little part to get them to wind up down in Tartarus.

"You need some sleep Leo." I said and offered him a hand. "I can watch the ship if you want me to." I told him. He raised an eyebrow and I knew he was thinking that I wouldn't be able to handle directing a ship but his desire for sleep got the better of him.

Leo reached over to push a green button. It started flashing the words AUTO-PILOT and he stepped down from the chair and I helped him in his room. The whole way down the hallway, he kept telling me things that could go wrong and how to fix them. He was in overload.

We passed by Hazel's room and she was hugging Frank and I heard the sound of a few sniffles. It must have been her and maybe a bit of Frank wondering if they were ever going to get home alive. Nico was sacked out on her bed.

As we passed, Leo hesitated walking past the door and Hazel looked up. Frank shot Leo a look of anger and sadness but I pushed him along, wondering what that exchange was about.

"And don't forget to pull it to the left a bit. It tends to drag right. Stay on course, the map is-"

"Leo!" I stopped him, already forgetting all of his instructions. "Just get some rest. You will be the first to know if something goes wrong."

"Don't let me sleep in to much." He said. Leo hugged me, the first time I had experienced a passionate act from him. Probably just lack of sleep and a long day. I flinched a bit when he touched my shoulder but warmed up to his touch. "How's your shoulder? Do you need some more nectar?" He asked and went through a few drawers under his bed. He tossed me a bottle of nectar before settling into bed. I thanked him and went back upstairs.

I sat at the control station trying to stay awake. The green button kept flashing in my eyes.

I spun around in the chair a few times and looked out to the empty air and the empty deck. I wondered how Annabeth and Percy must be feeling. Probably a lot of pain, but the fact that they were surrounded by endless darkness or whatever was down there.

The ship was as empty as Tartarus and I sent good thoughts toward the trapped two before focusing on the Argo II

A/N: Thanks for reviewing! I'm glad you liked it : )

It's a little short because I am not used to writing for these people but next is going to be in Annabeth or Percy's POV yay!

Have a great GREAT day!
