So, I've been getting a lot of good reviews lately, and they're awesome! I've also started reading a similar story to this one, it's called Reunion by . It's more in the fluff side if that's what you're looking for and more sense of humor. The cool thing was that instead of saying Annabeth and Percy for the characters, it's Reyna and Jason*hint*hint*. And for those who guessed, yes the lines ARE from Burdge-Bug. Gods, I love her drawings and her comics. Unfortunately, I can't draw very well, and if I do want to make a comic, I want to make the best of it, so that means SAI. So, if anyone wants to make a comic or manga story out of this go ahead, I'd love to see it too ^_^. Now, you see, this is in Reyna's POV, now you're going to have to excuse me on this one because she might be OOC since I don't know her character very well, she seems like a tsundere if you ask me, that's my opinion . But I tried my best not to make her OOC. Oh, who do you think the third POV will be on? It has to be a male.
I don't own Percy Jackson.
I don't Heroes of Olympus.
Who do you think Jason is going to pick? (I am loving this triangle)
III
Reyna
I should have known that Jason would end up being romantically linked with one of the Greeks. While I can't just presume right away that they're together, the chemistry is there. I slipped away not wanting to create a scene as Percy and his girlfriend had. At least one of the leaders should know that in the Roman way, you have to set an example. Walking around the City, I noticed that the Greeks were still somewhat doubting us, except for this rough looking group, I presume they must be Mars kids. They seemed to be enjoying themselves mingling with the others.
Up ahead, I can see Jason and his two friends, one that looks like one of Santa's little helpers, and the girl with an uneven hair cut. They were laughing about something, but I can see that he and the girl were close. I must have been standing and staring for a long time because Jason locked eyes with mine and then he turned back to his friends saying something. They both nodded their heads, and he started walking towards me. If anything, I felt like I should start running, but that's not in my nature to do so. Instead, I stood tall and put up the best front I could.
"Jason." I said, hoping that I didn't sound too stiff. His lips curled up to a smile, it would look somewhat crude with the small scar on his lips, but I thought it looked cute.
"Hey, Reyna. Long time, no see."
"Yes, it's been too long. I can see that you've completed your job."
"Oh come on Reyna, you can drop it. Aren't we best buddies? You don't need to act so formal in front of me." I mentally cringed at the words 'best buddies'. Surely, he must have remembered what happened between us. Nothing happened, idiot, if we just spent more time together, then maybe.
"You seem to have forgotten the Roman ways, maybe the Greeks got to your head." I was getting colder with each word, and Jason was starting to agitated. You see, before he became Praetor, he would annoy me to no ends and we would always end up being at each other's throats, since there was still some affect on me from Circe's island.
"The Greeks, Reyna, are our allies and our friends." He stated coldly, eyes narrowing.
"I'm fully aware of that, but it seemed that you became something more than just friends with one of them." I shot back, just as cold. For a second there, he seemed to have a pained expression but it was immediately replaced with a stone hard look on his face again.
"Look Reyna, I just got back. And it isn't fair the way you're treating me, I was gone for 8 months and my memories were wiped. So, I'm going to pretend our discussion never happened and keep on moving. But please, I really do miss everyone here, especially you." His voice became very sincere in the end and his gaze softened. I was nearly lost in that look until I turned away.
"Fine, but remember, we have a lot to discuss tonight. Be there, even if your powers as Praetor has been passed on, you're still as much of a leader to everyone else here." I said tonelessly.
I didn't turn around to see his reaction or what his next words would be, I couldn't take it any longer. I walked past by his two friends, the girl was staring intently at me as I walked, I tried to ignore her as best as possible. I had nothing against the girl, but still, I couldn't help but feel betrayed by Jason. After our last conversation, I thought things would have gone good from there. The little helper whistled, and I heard the girl reprimand him.
"Leo!"
"What? The girl's pretty hot."
The further away I got, the more their voices blended in with the others. It was getting disorienting walking around the crowd of people, some nodded their heads in respect to me. Deciding to take a nap, I began walking towards my house, as a Praetor, I was given one. Percy for some reason decided not to take it, he was much too noble and too humble to be a Roman, but as a warrior, he is just as fierce.
Speaking of Percy, I couldn't help but feel annoyed that he was faithful to his girlfriend, why couldn't Jason? Because you're not his girlfriend. My subconscious mind is starting to become really annoying. And right there, just on the spot, I saw two people making out behind the second Praetor's house next to mine. I couldn't really tell who it was, but the black and blonde hair pretty much gave it away. I had to restrain myself from punching the wall.
As much as I hate to admit it, I'm really jealous of that girl and how she's close to Jason. Spending much of my life in Circe's island, the feeling of jealousy was the last thing I expected, especially for love. Being taught that men were useless, I was led to believe that. Until of course, by coincidence, Percy and Annabeth were there to destroy the island. In a very strange way, I have them to thank for freeing me, although my sister disagrees.
I changed into something more comfortable to wear and laid down in my bed. I was staring up at the ceiling, thinking of what's going to happen. For sure, I'm going to go on that ship with them, they're going to need all the help they can get. I have to carefully select our warriors who'll be joining us. Then I have to choose someone who'll look over Camp Jupiter and the City while Percy and I are gone. It is most likely that my sister and the Amazons will be joining, so Hylla is out, not that I'd trust her anyways. I have to brace myself for what's to happen when we arrive in Rome and then in Greece.
The aspect that Octavian was right about there being Greek Demigods and the Gods still uses their old forms are a bit overwhelming. Octavian is becoming a real problem, at first, no one took him seriously, but now, he's doing anything possible to get it. That brings me to the conclusion that I cannot leave the Camp without a leader, I'm thinking a wise Veteran would do, but I must consult with Jason about this. No, it's Percy now, he's the Praetor, not Jason.
This is getting way into my head, I'm just going to close my eyes and take my nap already. Of course, I should have known by now that Demigods never sleep easily.
