Here's ch 2 hope you all enjoy it :D

Ch 2 Percy POV

We ran like crazy out of the Big House getting some strange looks from the campers who were headed for shelter. I grabbed Nico's arm and teleported back to Sally's.

"Whats going on? Why's Chiron so worried about me?" Nico asked as I plumped down on the plush blue couch.

"Olympus wants you dead. Have you been claimed yet?" I asked Nico.

"Why do they want me dead? I haven't been claimed yet. Does this have something to do with my parent?" Nico nervously asked, his eyes showed how scared he actually was. I looked over at Aldora who was perched on the edge of the couch next to Nico who had sat down beside me.

"We don't know why they have those intentions, all I know is that Percy and I will do anything to keep you safe," Aldora told Nico.

"But do you know who my parent is?" Nico asked hopeful.

Aldora looked at me before telling him, "Percy and I think your father is Hades but we could be wrong, we won't know for sure until you get claimed."

"How about we go get you settled in the guest room Nico," Sally piped in. Nico reluctantly got off the couch and followed Sally down the dimly lit stairs towards the guest room. It was well past 11pm and the only light in the room came from an old light in the corner of the room.

"We have to go back to camp tomorrow don't we?" Aldora asked sliding down the side of the armrest and laying half on the couch with her legs hanging off the end.

"We're gonna have to at some point, we can't hide here forever," I replied even though I wished we could.

"It's not hiding, I'm just not ready to be camp director," Aldora stated with a playful smile.

"I know exactly how you feel," I told her before I fell asleep on the couch next to her.

I woke up to sunlight streaming in through the living room window. At some point during the night I had fallen off the couch and onto the floor. I looked up towards the couch to see Aldora uncomfortably laying there. Her feet hanging off the end, one arm awkwardly tucked under her and the other dangling off the edge in my face. Her hair was a tangled mess covering most of her face yet she somehow looked peaceful. Nico silently came up the stairs wearing fresh clothing and wet hair.

"Morning Nico," I whispered as he sat down in the recliner across from us, I sat up but stayed on the floor.

There was a sharp intake of breath and Aldora flipped to lie on her stomach. "5 more minutes," she groggily mumbled. Nico and I stifled laughter.

I turned my finger into a feather and softly tickled her nose. "Uuurrg," Nico and I laughed some more as she tried batting my finger away. "Percy go away," she grumbled. I ignored her and tickled her nose with my finger/feather again. She shocked me before I managed to tickle her.

"Oww gees Aldora stop short circuiting," I pulled my finger away and turned it back into a finger.

"Then don't tickle me," she mumbled brushing her thick black hair out of her face and revealing a small smile.

"Then get up sleepy head," I replied.

"No," Aldora grumbled and flipped over so that she was facing the couch. Being the jerk of a boyfriend that I am, I didn't leave her sleep, instead I took water vapour from the air above her, turned it into liquid and kindly let gravity do its work. The water drenched her and she was definitely not asleep anymore.

"Percy! What the hell!?" Aldora yelled and jumped up flinging her dark wet hair around. "What was that for!?"

"It was umm time for you to get up," I dumbly replied, silently laughing at her reaction. Nico looked slightly scared.

"Breakfast is ready!" Sally called from the kitchen.

"And breakfast is ready anyway," I added. Aldora gave me her, I'll get you back later glare. By the time we were all seated at the table Aldora was already dry, ok, well umm, odd I didn't notice her glowing. There was a feast of pancakes, fruit salad, sausage and bacon laid out on the table. Nico and I dug in while Aldora and Sally were a bit more reserved.

"What's the plan guys?" Nico asked, digging into his pancakes.

"Ummm we don't really have a plan," I hesitated before telling him.

"But you guys always have a plan. You must of thought of something," Nico said looking concerned and confused.

"Right now the plan is for you to stay here with Sally, Percy and I have to go back to camp otherwise Zeus will notice that we have you hidden a lot faster then we want him too. One of us will come to check on you every day to make sure you're ok and if there's trouble we'll move you but we are going to look for somewhere safer for you," Aldora informed him.

"But I want to help," Nico replied it seemed like he'd forgotten about his breakfast cause he'd stopped devouring his pancakes.

"The best help you can do at the moment is staying off the radar. The best place for that right now is here," Sally kindly informed him.

"But there has to be something I can do," Nico stopped eating pancakes while trying to plead with us.

"There is, learn how to use your powers and practice sword fighting, there's a dummy out in the yard you can use," I said, reaching across the table and taking Aldora's hand. Next thing I knew we were back at Half Blood Hill.

"You could have at least let me finish my breakfast," Aldora complained.

"You could have eaten faster," I retorted as I put my arm around her shoulder and lead her down the hill toward the Big House. If we got odd looks yesterday today was definitely no better. It felt like there was tension building and we were the centre of it. Everyone stopped what they were doing to look over at us.

"What are they starring at? It's not like I'm wearing an absurd amount of black," Aldora asked. Lately she had dropped a lot of the black and opted for more colourful colours, blues and gray's where starting to become more dominate. Still somewhat gloomy depending on the shade but more colour then I've ever seen her in before.

"Do they know about us yet?" I asked leaning over to whisper in her ear even though I wasn't sure why I was whispering.

"Well if they didn't they've just found out," Aldora replied. Chiron was walking toward us in horse form.

"Percy, Aldora I need to talk to you, come," he turned to head for the Big House.

Do you think it's something bad?

Why else would Chiron want to talk to us alone?

We are the camp directors.

Still suspicious

We walked up onto the porch which overlooked Long Island Sound and Chiron motioned for us to sit down. "How's the boy? He's safe isn't he?" Chiron asked.

"Safe for now, we need to find somewhere safer. Sally won't be able to protect him forever," I answered.

"I know some people in the city that may be able to help. I'll get in touch with them and hopefully arrange something safer. Now when do you want to tell camp that you are the new leaders, they've been wondering where Dionysus is," Chiron said. I wondered who in New York would be able to help, we couldn't trust any other immortal so that would only leave mortals.

"He left as fast as possible, he wasn't going to say bye to anyone," Aldora laughed as she said it.

"How about at supper. That way everyone's there and we can answer questions easier," I suggested, Chiron agreed and we left.

"I'm gonna go catch up with Annabeth," Aldora informed me, heading for the Athena cabin. I headed towards the pavilion, hopping to find someone to spare with. I was welcomed with the smell of sweat and sounds of clashing swords, and the all to familiar grunts and cries. There were a couple pairs of people fighting, some standing by the water cooler trying to down as much water as possible and others just there for the thrill of watching. Nobody seemed to notice my arrival which did not bother me one bit, I wanted to keep a low profile until tonight. I quietly joined the semi circle of spectators watching Travis and Connor fight. Connor was going to be the obvious winner, he knew Travis' weakness and where to best get him by surprise, I could tell just by glancing at them.

"Aarg," erupted from Travis as he feel backwards, tripping on his own feet while Connor took advantage and pinned his arm back in a way that made it nearly impossible for a breakaway.

"Who wants to challenge me next?" Connor triumphantly asked standing up and waving his sword in a big arch toward the crowd he looked around at everyone's face, people glanced at one another unsure whether or not they should be his next opponent, Connors gaze stopped when he saw me, "Percy, care for a little match?"

"Only if you can handle losing," I replied, uncapped Ripetide and stepped towards him, people where whispering around us I heard a mismatch of comments and words but the gist of what most people where saying was how in Hades did Connor expected to beat a god. "I will remind you I've been fighting since I could walk."

"Makes no difference to me, prepare for a swift defeat," Connor replied with a little too much confidence and his trademark Hermes grin. I twirled Ripetide in a circle beside me as Connor lunged at me.

I could tell what he was going to do next before he even knew himself, he was so predictable and only seem to worry about offence, he would leave himself completely open to an attack, I easily could have taken him down in one move but I refrained myself even though I question why I did that.

"Don't you know any defence?" I calmly asked.

"And... Why... Would I... Need that?" He asked in between multiple lunges.

"So that you can avoid awkward losses like this one," I replied as I grabbed his sword and pinned him down. Applauds and cheers rang through the arena as Connor slowly realized what had happened, twit maybe he shouldn't pick a fight with the god of swordsmanship . He slowly stood up and took his sword from me before heading towards the bench for some much needed water.

"Good fight Percy," Connor grumbled after gulping down two glasses of water and pouring a third

Aldora and Annabeth where standing in with the crowd, she looked at me and I knew exactly what her plan was, "How bout we show them some real fighting Aldora."

"Don't even have to ask me twice," she eagerly replied, we hadn't had a good spar since before we'd come to camp. Breaking away from the crowd she zapping one of her bracelets, if I'd thought the crowd went nuts when I fought Connor well now everyone was going insane over this match. I stood ready, the crowd's anticipation rising, I waited for Aldora to make the first move which she did. We were immediately in our own sort of dance, going from offence to defence every couple seconds, twisting and turning trying to get each other where we were least expecting it. The crowd was completely silent except for the sounds of our weapons clashing and the occasional grunt. Maybe I'd just completely tuned them out which could be completely legitimate. The dinner conch sounded and I let my guard down, is she gonna call it quits or want to finish the fight? That second was all Aldora needed to knock me down and pin me from behind.

"Really food is the only reason you let your guard down?" Aldora teased.

"Well I'm hungry and I want food," I replied.

"Your always hungry seaweed brain," she retorted and we both started laughing because it was completely true. I looked up to see everyone staring at us in awe, "What did we do?"

"Where did you learn all those moves? We've never seen anyone fight like that before," A camper I didn't know stammered.

"Some moves we made up some our parents taught us but we've practiced practically every day since we were 5," Aldora answered. Everyone turned to someone else and started going on about our fight and how amazing it was I doubted that there would be anyone who hadn't heard about it by campfire. I headed to where food was calling my name. The walk wasn't that long but when I got to my drearily lonely table I was one of the last to sit. Aldora sat right across from me at Zeus' table she looked somewhat nervous which was extremely odd for her, sure she doesn't beam with confidence but she doesn't hide from a fight either and she doesn't tend to show when she's nervous.

"Campers," Chiron exclaimed raising his hands in the air, showing that he wanted everyone's attention. "Before we begin this wonderful feast I have a few announcements. As I'm sure all of you have realized Mr. D has left."

"Whose the new director, is it you Chiron?" A camper yelled out.

"I am still only Director of activities. There are two new godly leaders," groans erupted from just about everyone. It only made my stomach drop, I looked over to Aldora and saw her cringe, if they didn't want us would we only end up like Dionysus to them? "Hold your horses, I never said who they are," Chiron waited for the crowd to quiet down again, "Percy and Aldora are your Camp Leaders." Nobody mad a sound, it would have been so much easier if they would have immediately shown how they feel instead of nothing at all. Aldora's electric blue eyes looked a little clouded and I knew she hated this as much as I did.
