Over two years later and I finally finish the second chapter! I am so sorry it took me so long to update. I completely lost interest in the story and I am attempting on continuing it. I have edited the first chapter to fix all errors and to get rid of the part of Lorin and Riza going to the camp as well. I hope every one of you reading this chapter enjoys it better than the first one. I am keeping to my promise of 3,000 words, which is why I didn't add this chapter sooner.

Next chapter I will put some time this week or next.


Percy had failed to mention to Mr. D that his mother was pregnant. So walking around camp was very difficult for her to do and she ended up needing a wheelchair within ten minutes. After that little incident, Percy began his tour with Paul pushing Sally in the chair.

The first place Percy showed the married couple was the cabins. Usually a mortal can't enter a cabin, but Percy was at least able to show them what the inside of his cabin looked like by having them stand outside the door and peek inside. Everything looked pretty normal besides the random fountain in the corner of the room made out of gray sea rock with water spouting out of a fish. The back wall was entirely made out of glass, including the back door, which all led to a back porch that faced the ocean. On the back porch was a hammock big enough for two tied to a post on each side with a small pile of books next to it. The hammock was Annabeth's favorite place to read and Percy would join her, but within a few minutes they would both be asleep.

The married couple was surprised by the two bunk-beds and the queen size bed closer to the front of the cabin while the bed that was twice as big as a king size was pushed to the side of one wall.

"It gets lonely only having one other person in the cabin so we decided to room together." Percy tried explaining. "One bunk-bed is for Hazel and Nico, while the other is for Jason and Thalia."

"And the other two beds are for you and Tyson?" Paul assumed.

"Well Annabeth stays in here so we share the queen bed." Percy went on. "But since we do, the six of us have an earlier curfew than the other campers."

"Where is Annabeth?" Sally wondered curiously.

"At the training grounds." Percy answered as he closed the cabin door and locked it for good measure. "It's her cabin's turn so she couldn't wait for you. She should be fighting against the Hunters or the Amazons if you want to watch."

Turns out Annabeth wasn't fighting against a Huntress or an Amazon. Instead she was fighting against Reyna. Even though the trio arrived after they started fighting, it looked like they just started by the strength and stamina of their attacks. Everyone else, including the children of the Big Three, was surrounding the 'rink', not saying a word for the fight was too intense.

"How long have they been at it?" Percy asked the general group.

"Almost thirty minutes." Hylla, the leader of the Amazons and Reyna's older sister, said with a shrug of her shoulders. "It will end shortly."

"Why do you say that?" Thalia questioned almost harshly. "You think Annabeth is going to lose?"

"I know." Hylla insisted, "because Reyna is starting to zone out and letting her body fight for her. When that happens, the battle is good as done."

Hylla happened to be correct. Annabeth watched during the fighting as Reyna's eyes started to glaze over. Reyna seemed to be getting more nimble with her fighting for when Annabeth attacked, she stopped blocking it. Instead she dodged the attacks in a way that made it look like she dancing. Within seconds Reyna knocked Annabeth's weapon out of her hands, knocked the Greek down with her on top, and held the knife a couple inches from her throat. Reyna's eyes returned to normal along with her famous smirk she gets every time she defeats someone.

"I win." She chided playfully.

After Reyna helped Annabeth off the ground, Annabeth had showed concern on her face. "How long has that happened to you?" Annabeth interrogated as the two made their way to the Big Three children and the married couple.

"Let's talk later." Reyna insisted quietly as the arrived in front of the group.

The group talked for a little while before the married couple was forced to leave and honestly none of campers wanted her to go. Dionysus had to promise the campers she could come back after the gods returned to Olympus before anyone would let them go.

With an hour before the other immortals would appear, Dionysus ordered all of the campers to clean up the camp and make themselves look presentable. However, Annabeth had pulled Reyna aside and demanded answers for her previous question.

"The first time that happened was during the fight against the pirates on Circe's island." Reyna explained as they walked along the border of the camp. "It was the reason why we had won, I went into that state and defeated all of them. But, I don't remember any of it though. Hylla was the one that told me that happened, so when we were alone that night we fought against each other and thirty minutes later I blacked out again. I almost killed Hylla."

"There's something else," Annabeth insisted. "I can tell by the way you avoided looking at me."

Reyna shook her head to get rid of a thought. "It's just an old Roman tale." Reyna insisted. "Nobody knows about it but Hazel, Jason, and me."

"Then tell me." Annabeth pursued. "If it's anything bad I can help."

Reyna sighed, but she complied. "Have you ever heard of the Flame of Olympus?" When Annabeth said no, Reyna went on to tell the story.

"There's more." Annabeth continued to interrogate as they made it inside the camp.

"The supposed Flame is coming to the camp with the gods along with two mortals, her father and friend." Reyna answered with an annoyed tone in her voice. "Since she is coming, Jason and I have to make sure Hazel isn't within ten meters of her."

"Why?"

"There is another legend that is even less known." Reyna went on. "Only six know of this story, which are the Big Three, me, Jason, and Hazel. No other gods or demigods know about, except for you now.

"At the beginning of the titan war, Pluto was on the titan's side." Reyna said as the two entered the empty Big House and sat on the ugly sofa. "He was essentially a spy for the gods. Gaea found out when the Big Three defeated her. She put a curse on Pluto to where one of his children would end up destroying the Flame. Then Vesta put the Flame inside a random little girl that will change to someone else when they die, which is the real reason why the Big Three made their pact. The Olympians finally located the Flame when a certain someone went to the Underworld and came back with their sister."

"Nico." Annabeth assumed. "He went to the Underworld to find Bianca, but came back with Hazel. That means-"

"Yes," Reyna agreed. "Hazel is trying to find a way to tell Nico, but she doesn't know how to. So, tonight after the bonfire the children of the Big Three, Will, you, and me are going to discuss it in Plu-Hades's cabin. It's safer in there than Zeus's or Poseidon's."

"Why have Will there?"

"To keep Nico calm." Reyna stated like it was the most common thing in the world. "Hazel and I are going to be telling him the news and Will is the only other person that can calm him down when he is upset."

Before Annabeth could ask anymore questions, Frank walked in the room. His whole attitude and appearance seemed depressed as he announced, "The immortals will be at the border any minute. We are to go there now." He left without saying another word.

Annabeth turned to Reyna with curiosity. "What's wrong with him?"

"Hazel dumped him." She informed with a shrug as she stood from the couch with Annabeth following her. "She claims he has been acting like a jerk to her lately. She let it go the first couple times, but during one of their argument he raised his hand like he was going to hurt her. He can't deny it because I watched it happen. Hazel got mad and used her magic to bind him against a tree until someone came to set him free."

Reyna sighed in annoyance. "Let's get this thing over with."


Only a handful of demigods were allowed to meet the immortals at the border while the others would have to eat lunch instead. The only campers were the head of the cabins, the praetors, and all of the children of the Big Three. It was safe to say that there was over twenty children to greet them. For some odd reason, some of the gods were their Roman side instead of Greek.

No one knew what to say because they didn't want to say the wrong thing with Jupiter being there. There's also the fact that there were three people that no one knew who they were. However, one god was brave enough to speak to his child for he didn't fear his brother's wrath.

"It's been a while Percy." Poseidon acknowledged as he moved to the front of immortals.

Percy shrugged his shoulders like it was no big deal. "Not really. I've been too busy trying to qualify for the college in New Rome to notice."

"How is your mother coaping with you leaving in less than a year?" The sea-god wondered. "I know she experienced what it's like with an empty nest when you were gone when Hera switched you and Jason for over six months."

"It won't be empty for long." Percy denied as he managed to avoid an immortal argument. "She and Paul are having a baby. She's due in three months."

"Do you know if it's a boy or a girl?"

Before Percy could answer, Annabeth shook her head in amusement. "The doctor told the three the baby was a boy when Sally went for the ultra-sound." She began the explanation. "However, Percy argued for a good hour that the ultra-sound was wrong and Sally would have a girl."

"You want a little sister?" Poseidon questioned. "Why not a brother? I'm sure you would be a good mentor if the gender is a boy."

"But I already have three brothers." Percy argued insistently. "I only have two sisters and I have a gut feeling the baby is a girl."

Some of the gods gave him a strange look when he stated how many siblings he has. Poseidon curiously asked, "Where did you get that number?"

"Tyson, Nico, and Jason are my brothers and Hazel and Thalia are my sisters." Percy answered like it was the most simplest thing in the word.

Poseidon let out a laugh which shook through the whole clearing. "I should have known you would say something like that. Anyways, maybe your mother and Paul can visit camp this week."

The demigods turned their heads to Dionysus. They either had expressions of pleading or begging on their face. Dionysus sighed. "Fine, they can visit some time this week if the rest of the campers can behave themselves."

The mood of the demigods lifted as Poseidon gave his son a wink. However, Jupiter thought something was off with Dionysus. "You seem especially kind to them, Dionysus." Jupiter commented. "Why the change of heart?"

"Because I don't favorite that Flame or her friend." Dionysus argued as he gestured to the black-haired girl standing next to the goddess Diana. "If they were to disappear, I guarantee I wouldn't notice, Father."

Jupiter's anger began to grow, but he tried his best to not show it in front of the girl. "So who are the two you favor?" He interrogated. "I know it is not any of the campers because you do not remember the names of any of them."

"You're right." Dionysus agreed. "One of them is not a camper because she is a Huntress. My other favorite is a camper that has been here since she was seven years old!"

Everyone was silent as the mood suddenly changed back to tense, but a handful were surprised by Dionysus's statement. Jupiter's rage only grew and it showed to frighten the black-haired girl when she hid behind Diana in fear. "How can that possibly be true?" Jupiter interrogated. "You have not once showed any concern for either one of them. All you do is-"

"Every year, I place flowers around Thalia's tree and, when she was still in it, around her figure." Dionysus countered. "What did you do for her besides turning her into a landmark?"

"That is not proof for An-"

"When Annabeth disappeared that winter I was going to look for her myself!" Dionysus yelled, which quite possibly could be heard throughout the entire camp. "Chiron couldn't get me to change my mind and I made him swear on the River to not reveal my plan. I was going to leave camp the night of the capture-the-flag game against the Huntress, but the Oracle decided to make an appearance with an awaiting prophecy.

"Let me ask you this Father," Dionysus challenged as he bitterly spat out the last word. "How can those two, my beloved sister and my niece, not be my favorite when they have been at this camp longer than anyone else?"

Jupiter fumed, but he decided, "We shall finish this conversation at another time."

"Gladly." Dionysus turned to address the demigods. "All of you will take your parent to their individual cabins. They can decide from there if they wish to sleep in the cabins or the rooms in the Big House. Thalia, you will lead Lady Diana and Lady Vesta to their cabins instead of your father, and you have my permission to stay in the cabin you are in now. Reyna, it pains me to say this now, but you will do as Jupiter requested; guide the Flame and her companions around camp until you hear the horn blow for lunch. If you haven't finish the tour at that time then you will continue afterwards. Everyone is dismissed."

The dark-haired girl was about to protest but everyone had already started leaving, including a man that looked like her father. Reyna waited until it was only the four of them left. "Hello," she began as she held out her hand for the girl-stranger to shake. "I'm Reyna, the praetor of New Rome, which basically means I'm the leader of Camp Jupiter, the camp that is located in California and is for Roman demigods."

The girl warily shook Reyna's hand. She was a tall girl, about the height of Diana, with raven-black hair and deep blue eyes that had hints of tiny white flecks in them. "I'm Emily Jacobs, the Flame of Olympus." Emily greeted as she 'casually' threw in her title. "These are my friends Joel DeSilva and Paelen."

Joel DeSilva looked to be six foot tall and about a head taller than Paelen. He was a well-built boy with wide shoulders, wavy black hair and chocolate-brown eyes. Although Paelen is actually centuries old, he looks no older than a teenager aged sixteen to seventeen years. He can be described as having warm, smiling brown eyes, unkempt brown hair and a mischievous, crooked grin.

"I've heard your story." Though Reyna made it sound like it was a bad thing. "Where is Lord Pegasus?"

"Diana said he was heading to the stables to find his kids." Emily answered nonchalantly, but Reyna could tell it bothered her. "Something about making sure was okay after a war last summer? Specially one that is all black-"

"Blackjack." Reyna provided with content in her voice. "He belongs to Perseus Jackson, Nep-Poseidon's son. I saved him from being killed and Pegasus came to help in the war for a brief minute with his children taking over after he left."

"That's impossible." Emily argued as a slight light covered her hand. "Pegs didn't leave Olympus at all last summer because he was with me."

Reyna raised an eyebrow in amusement on how easy it was to make the girl lose the temper. "We can debate that topic all you want, but I have to do what I am told by Lord Bacchus."

"Bacchus?" Joel repeated. "That's Dionysus's Roman name, you are Roman?"

Reyna mentally rolled her eyes. "My mother is Bellona, the Roman goddess of war, and I told you I am the leader of a Roman camp. Why would you think I wasn't Roman?"

Joel blushed from embarrassment, but Reyna was kind enough to not acknowledge it. "I will show you the cabins first," she decided. "From there I will take you to the Arena, the Forge, Arts and Crafts, and the Big House. Those should be the only places you need to know and I'll lead you to the mess hall when it is time for lunch.

"Before we start I have one more to address," Reyna went on. "Do you have an idea who the Big Three's children are?"

"I'm guessing it's that Percy Jackson kid and the five names he said earlier." Joel stated for the other two.

"Good." Reyna complimented. "Now here's some advice; never challenge a demigod child of the Big Three."

Emily stepped forward with her hand on her hip, a very sassy pose, and asked with the same challenging tone as Jupiter's, "And if I do?"

"Challenge one child, you challenge them all."
