Percy woke up in the morning and remembered what he had to do that day. Reform School for Octavian. He was basically the only demigod at camp who knew Octavian was alive. He wasn't supposed to tell many people, but he knew he would need Annabeth's help, as well as some of the others. Maybe Leo. Piper definitely. But right now he just needed to talk to Annabeth. Unfortunately he woke her up. Annabeth wasn't exactly as civil as she could be in the morning, she'd clearly been up late at night reading.

"Yes?" She asked, not angry but a little annoyed.

"Is there anyone else in your cabin?"

"No."

"Good I need to tell you something." He didn't care that they weren't supposed to be alone in a cabin. This was important.

"What is it?" She asked as she waved him inside.

"Octavian is alive." I said,taking a deep breath and waiting for her reaction.

"Wait what how?" She asked, looking shocked.

"I don't know. He's in the big house3. His memory has been wiped and Chiron asked me to teach him how to be a good person."

"How many people know?"

"Just you and me right now. If it gets hard I'll probably tell Piper. I don't think many other people should know until he's proven to not be a maniac."

"Good luck." She gave him a quick kiss and then a look that said, "i'm going back to bed." So much for help... Percy grabbed a poptart from Travis Stoll's secret stash which literally everyone knew about and went to go see if his "student" was awake.

He was.


"Okay. Lesson number one. I'm Percy Jackson. You don't hate me."

"Why would I hate you? Where am I?"

"Well, this is Camp Half Blood. Its a camp for Greek Demigods."

"Am I a Greek Demigod?"

"No. You're a Roman Legacy."

"What am I doing here?"

"I don't know." Octavian frowned.

"Why would I hate you?"

"You were different, once upon a time."

"What was I like?"

"I'm not going to tell you right now, its for the best I promise. Do you remember anything?"

"No, everything's fuzzy before yesterday." His lip trembled. He was scared, Percy could tell.

"Everythings going to be alright Octavian." He'd never thought he'd find himself comforting Octavian of all people.

"Why can't I remember?" He asked, sounding like a petrified little kid.

"I've been in your shoes before. It gets better. I'll tell you everything you need to know. Just trust me. Don't be afraid." Percy remembered that when he'd had amnesia Octavian hadn't exactly been nice to him. But Chiron had asked him to be. This was new Octavian. Percy had to make sure that this Octavian was better than the first. So he had to push aside the bitterness of their past conflicts. If Octavian got any idea that they hadn't been best of friends he might turn into how he had been before, ant that was the last thing Percy Jackson wanted.

"What do I do?"

"Trust me."

"O-okay. What are demigods?" Percy sighed and began to explain things to Octavian. After explaining about Octavian being a legacy of Apollo Octavian had several questions.

"Who are my parents?"

"I have no clue. I've never met them." Octavian frowned for a second.

"I have a strange feeling they didn't like me."

"You don't know that."

"No, no... I think I remember them... They gave me away... That's all I remember..." Octavian's face had turned pale white and he looked so sad.

"Why would they do that?" He asked Percy. Percy sighed, thinking about Gabe.

"Some people aren't good people. You don't have to be like them. You can be a good person." Octavian seemed to think about that, and then he smiled.

"Okay."

"That's Lesson number one."
