I'm back! Not much to say. Someone asked me who Reyna was going to remember in order to help her along. Well, Jason remembered Thalia, Percy remembered Annabeth, Reyna's going to remember Jason which will eventually lead to her to Thalia, therefore establishing a connection with the Greeks. I think that's pretty much all of the Greeks she has any connection to…except Annabeth and Percy but I doubt that remembering the people who destroyed your home would help you unite two natural enemies.

EDIT: To followers who are confused as to why you got this alert again when you've already read this chapter. It's because I'm changing the main characters. Leo's one. Reyna's another. But Piper will be replaced by someone that you've met before but you'll be really, really surprised about. I'm hoping, anyways. To people who are not my followers and have no idea what I'm talking about – ignore this.

Reyna II

The storm turned into a mini hurricane. Funnel clouds wound around the sidewalks.

Kids were screaming. They ran towards building while the wind whipped away their supplies and clothing. Reyna nearly fell off the railing but she managed to steady herself. She grabbed Leo's jacket to stop him from toppling off.

"Thanks, Rey," he said, looking shaken up.

Reyna simply nodded.

"Come on!" Coach Hedge was shouting. "Let's go, go, go!"

Piper and Dylan were holding the door open and helping kids in. Their clothes were flapping wildly in the wind. Piper smiled at the kids and comforted them while ushering them inside the building.

Reyna tried to run towards them with Leo and Coach Hedge following her but the wind was extremely difficult to fight against.

Dylan shoved the last kid inside the building before the door slammed shut. The kids inside banged on the door but it didn't move.

"Help me!" Piper shouted, turning to Dylan.

Dylan just stood there and grinned maniacally. The wind didn't seem to be affecting him that much.

"Nope, sorry, Pipes. Helping is overrated."

He flicked his wrist and Piper slammed backwards against the railing. She groaned in pain.

"Piper!" Leo shouted, trying to reach her.

Reyna started to follow him but Coach Hedge grabbed onto both of them. For a guy that brought a whole new meaning to the word "short," he was pretty strong.

"Let me go!" Leo yelled, trying to fight back.

"You two," Coach Hedge said. "Stay behind me. I'll take him down. This is the monster that I've been smelling."

"What the heck are you talking about?" Leo demanded.

Coach Hedge took off his baseball cap. On his head were two bumps. He swung his club – wait a minute, his club? The cap had magically turned into a club.

Dylan turned to him and continued smiling maniacally. "You're going to fight me?" He laughed. "You're getting too old for this. You couldn't even smell me and I've been on your team all season."

Hedge growled. "Doesn't mean I can't take you." He started to charge when Dylan flicked his wrist and the satyr flew back three feet.

Dylan then turned his attention to Leo.

The curly-haired boy started to back up nervously but Dylan simply raised his arm and the winds around Leo got even stronger. The boy was whirled around and the funnel clouds surrounded him. The winds suddenly changed direction as Dylan pushed forward with his hand, as if making the "stop" gesture. Leo was flung over the railing and he nearly fell to his death. Luckily, he managed to grab onto a thin ledge.

"Help, anyone!" he shouted. "Handsome boy about to fall to his death here!"

Coach Hedge cursed in some other language. He handed his club to Reyna and said, "Keep the thing busy while I go rescue the kid. Hope you're good!" He started to turn away.

"Wait!" Reyna yelled. "What are you going to do, fly?"

"Nope," the coach said. "I'm going to climb." He kicked off his shoes. Instead of feet, there were…hooves?

Reyna stared at them for a minute before looking back up at Coach Hedge. "You're a faun," she realized.

Coach Hedge scowled. "I'm a satyr, not a faun. But we'll discuss this later. Got a half-blood to save."

Without a second thought, he leaped over the railing and hit the canyon hooves first. With incredible agility he bounded down the canyon, dodging the winds, and tried to reach Leo.

"How sweet is that?" Dylan said with false innocence in his voice. He turned to Reyna. "You're up next."

Reyna threw the club. Unfortunately, with the winds so strong, it missed Dylan completely and landed next to Piper.

Her "friend" wasn't as dazed as she appeared. When the club rolled next to her, Piper grabbed it and stood up. She tried to sneak up behind Dylan but before she could, the skywalk shuddered. Cracks appeared in the glass.

Dylan's body turned into smoke. He hovered over the skywalk and grew ominous black wings. He was still smiling but he looked more like an evil angel than a male model. His eyes had dangerous sparks in them.

"You are a ventus," Reyna said, narrowing her eyes at him. "A storm spirit."

Dylan's laugh sounded like a terrifying storm. "I'm glad I waited, demigod. Leo and Piper I've known about for weeks. Could've killed them at any time. But my mistress said a third was coming—someone special. She'll reward me greatly for your death!"

Two more venti appeared beside him.

Reyna noticed Coach Hedge lifting Leo up onto his back. She caught Piper looking at her with a determined expression on her face. It didn't take a genius to understand what she meant.

You hold him off, I'll hit him from behind.

Reyna shook her head. For some reason, she knew that it wouldn't work. Maybe she was wrong, but that was unlikely. When it came to weapons, Reyna knew that she was the expert.

Piper gave her a questioning glance but Reyna gave her an expression that said, I'll handle this.

Of course, she had no idea how to handle it so she let her instincts take over. She reached into her jeans pocket and pulled out the Swiss army knife.

Dylan glanced at it and burst out laughing. "Go ahead, take your best shot!"

"My pleasure," Reyna said, flicking one of the two blades on the Swiss army knife.

She charged the ventus on Dylan's right, who had suddenly stopped laughing. When she ran her spear through it, she understood why. She was holding a spear. The blade had somehow morphed into an Imperial Gold spear.

The storm spirit disintegrated immediately and Reyna turned to the second one. She ran her spear through it but it simply dodged. She gritted her teeth and flicked her spear upwards, hitting the storm spirit straight through where its heart would've been. It turned into gold dust immediately.

Dylan stared at what remained of his comrades and then made a noise that sounded like a dying cat. "You couldn't have done that!"

Piper dropped her club and looked at Reyna, stunned. "Reyna, how did you…?"

And then Coach Hedge appeared on the skywalk with Leo on his back. He dumped the terrified boy onto the ground. "Spirits, fear the wrath of –" He stopped and looked around. He glared at Reyna. "Why didn't you leave any for me? I like a challenge!"

Leo looked up at the coach with outrage on his face. "Coach, I just nearly fell off the Grand Canyon. Stop asking for challenges!"

A flicker of fear ran through Dylan's eyes. "You have no idea what you've done, half-bloods. My mistress will destroy you all."

Wind swirled around him and more cracks appeared in the skywalk. Rain poured down from the sky and Reyna nearly fell over.

A swirling vortex appeared in the clouds and Dylan laughed. "My mistress wants me back! And you will go with me!" He lunged towards Reyna but she dodged.

Piper tackled Dylan and they both went rolling towards the railing.

Leo, Reyna, and the coach tried to help but the spirit screeched. He waved his hands a huge wind knocked them backwards. Reyna, Leo, and Coach Hedge ended up on the skywalk, groaning. Piper, on the other hand, ended up falling over the side.

"Noooo!" Leo moaned, staring at the place where she had been.

Coach Hedge groaned and cursed.

Reyna just looked at the place where Piper had been and held up her spear. She tried to charge Dylan but he simply pushed her back and grabbed Leo's arm. He rose higher and higher, pulling Leo with him.

Without a second thought, Hedge jumped up and grabbed onto Dylan's arm.

Reyna didn't get to see the rest of the fight because she ran to where Piper had been. "Piper?"

"I'm still here!" Piper shouted. One of her hands became visible. It was shaking.

Reyna grabbed her hand and pulled her up. Piper's face appeared and she climbed over the railing and fell on the floor, breathing heavily.

"Oh my god," Piper said, shuddering. "That was…that was terrible."

"Piper," Reyna said, looking at her urgently. "We have to get to Leo."

Piper nodded and stood up. They both ran to Leo who was on the skywalk, groaning. He was completely wet.

"Goat…" he muttered. He opened his eyes weakly and said, "The goat never came down. He disappeared with Dylan and the storm." He groaned. "Please tell me he didn't save my life."

"He saved your life twice," Reyna corrected.

"What happened?" Leo asked. "What is this? A dream?"

Reyna looked at Leo with pity. "I'm afraid that when you ask if it's a dream, it's never a dream." She stood up and walked to spear. As if sensing she didn't need it anymore, it turned back into the Swiss Army knife.

Piper shivered and said, "Reyna, tell me, what happened back there? I mean, you seemed as if…you saw those storm spirits or whatever before."

Leo nodded. "That was either really hot or really scary."

Piper didn't even chide him. That was a sure sign that she was scared.

Reyna wanted to come clean. She really did. But something prevented her. Something about Piper and Leo just said, Warning! Do not enter. Plus, it was obvious they were shaken up. They wanted some sort of stability from Reyna. She didn't have the heart to tell them she had lost her memory. At least, not now.

"I don't know any more than you," Reyna said. "Now, this is what we do know about us. According to Coach Hedge and the storm spirit, we are demigods. And Dylan has some sort of mistress that sent him to capture us. Judging from the –"

"Reyna, how did you remember all that?" Piper asked.

Reyna frowned. "I don't know. When I fought, I seemed to think clearly. It made me feel –" She stopped herself. There was no reason to give them personal information about her.

Leo suddenly said, "Are those flying horses?" He pointed somewhere in the sky.

Reyna looked up and for a moment, she couldn't see anything. And then she saw two winged…horses? They were pulling a bright box with two wheels: a chariot.

"It's the extraction squad Hedge told me about," Reyna informed Piper and Leo.

"That sounds painful," Leo commented as he got to his feet.

"Where are they taking us?" Piper asked.

The chariot landed on the far end of the skywalk. The flying horses tucked in their wings and glanced nervously at the cracks in the glass. Two teenagers were standing in the chariot – a blonde girl and a black-haired boy with sea green eyes.

Both of them were wearing jeans and orange T-shirts. They had shields on their backs. They waited until the chariot landed before jumping off. The boy was the first to reach them. The girl followed closely behind.

When the two teens were close enough for Reyna to make out their faces, the piercing pain came back. There was something that Reyna was supposed to remember about these two, especially the girl.

"Hey," the guy said with a warm smile. "My name's Percy." He pointed to the girl. "And this is Annabeth." He looked around. "Where's your protector? Gleeson Hedge?"

Gleeson? That was the coach's name? It sounded so…unfitting.

Reyna didn't want to answer the boy's question. She didn't trust the two at all. It was more than the natural suspicion she felt when she met a stranger. There was something about Piper, Leo, Percy, and Annabeth that was just different. But while she felt a mild suspicion towards Piper and Leo, with Percy and Annabeth, she felt a strong type of dislike. Reyna had no idea why but every bone in her body was screaming, Don't trust them!

"I've seen you before," Annabeth said, narrowing her eyes.

Reyna wasn't sure how to respond to that. So she decided to go with the truth. "I don't know you."

Reyna put her hand in her pocket and gripped her Swiss Army knife, just in case she needed to fight.

"The coach got taken by venti, Reyna said. "Storm spirits."

Annabeth arched an eyebrow. "You mean anemoi thuellai? That's the Greek term. Who are you, and what happened?"

Reyna didn't trust her. Nor did she trust Percy. So she lied and told her that she had been sent to the Wilderness School and that she had met Piper and Leo. She told her about Dylan but left off the part about her losing her memory.

When Reyna finished the story, the girl stared at her for one last moment and then looked at Percy. "I told you we shouldn't have followed her instructions. She's probably laughing at me right now from Olympus."

Percy frowned. "Come on, Annabeth. Just because you don't like Hera doesn't mean that we should stop trying to find her." He took a step forward and Reyna drew her Swiss Army knife in alarm.

"Percy," Annabeth said, staring at Reyna's weapon. "Look." He pointed at Reyna's hand. "The kid with the Swiss Army knife. She's the answer."

"I don't get it," Percy said, frowning. "I thought it would be her."

"Let's go," Annabeth said. "We'll take these three to camp and then decide what to do then."

Percy nodded. He turned to Reyna, Piper, and Leo. "Let's get out of here."

"Wait, what's happening?" Piper asked.

"And what the heck were you talking about?" Leo added.

"Later," Percy said. "First, we get out of here."

Reyna stood there stubbornly. "I'm not going anywhere. First, you tell me what's going on and why the girl looked like she was psycho. Then, I decide what I'm going to do." She glared at Percy , daring him to challenge her.

Percy stared at her and nearly flinched. "Okay, fine. We came here because someone told us that the answer to our problem would be here."

"What problem?" Leo asked.

Annabeth turned around and her stormy gray eyes became a shade darker. "There's this camper who's been missing for three days and we were hoping she'd be here."

Reyna narrowed her eyes. "And who is that?"

Percy frowned. "A girl named Drew Tanaka."

Whadya think? Any grammar mistakes? Reviews, anyone? Pretty please?

CRUCIO!
