Remember you can also find me on twitter :) Destin_C (It's a double underscore [ _ ] but the corrector won't let me put it)

After the end of the whole prophecy of the 7 thing, the first weeks were chilling time. Just going to the regular activities, guard patrol, forest scout, waiting for the new prophecy to come, you know typical demigod life. The bad news, Percy was gone; he went with Annabeth to New Rome. Good news, I had a new roommate, Jason. He came here with Piper and Leo. My first nights with Jason were… awkward, it was weird having a roommate after a year of sleeping alone, more bad news. He also knew about the whole Zeus-can-look-into-your-soul-except-in-a-tiny-space-of-the-cabin thing. So we fought every night for THE spot. The way to decide it changed each night, rock-paper-scissors, poker, highest card, who was blonder (Unfair [He chose that one]), who had bluer eyes (I won because I picked the judge "randomly", choosing Alex, a girl from the Apollo cabin which I think there's a mutual crush between us), and stuff like that. But overall it´s been great having him around, he's been teaching me how to summon and control the winds and lightning. And it´s cool to have someone to talk about the whole people-expect-to-much-from-me stuff.

One day, Jason was giving me lessons on how to "fly" using the wind. Piper was sitting near Jason reading a book.

He started going up, so I tried, at first, I started feeling a heavy air current, then I started thinking up and up we went.

"Way to go!" Jason cheerfully "Don't go to high or you'll lose control"

Note to self N° 2: Listen to Jason

I kept going up. And… I lost control. I started moving sideways and backwards, then I fell, clashed on a tree and fell with my shoulder on the ground.

"Oh my gods, Gary!" Piper said "You okay?"

"Been better" I answered getting up.

"And, my young Icarus, that's why you don't go too high." Jason said mocking me

"Oh shut up, Grace" I told him "And you're perfect"

He just smiled and helped me get up

"Now that we know you're OK" Piper said "That was hilarious"

"I beg to differ" I told them "I'm going with Leo, were I won't be as humiliated"

So I went to Leo, in Bunker 9. And as soon as I told him what happened, his sense of humor stepped in and I was mucked as twice as I was with Jason and Piper, together.

"Man, I imagine you falling like that helicopter fail I tried to do once" He told me

"Thanks for the support, pal" I said "I see you doin' some joe job"

"What-job?" He asked

"It's a Canadian slang"

"Are we in Canada?" He asked me

"No"

"Thanks" he said doing a bow "So please stop using Canadian words or get ut"

"Man, your Canadian "accent" is worse than my Spanish"

"Yeah? I dare you to make a phrase"

"Leo es un idiota" I said in a terrible Spanish "There"

"Nice try, carnal"

We laughed

"So" I said "When are you leaving?"

"As soon as I get this compass fixed" He said a little sad

"I really think you're gonna make it" I said patting his shoulder

"Thanks" He said smiling "I appreciate it. BTW, I have something for you, some chit-chat with Tyson, and some Leo magic. And it's done"

He handed me a silver ring with the roman numbers from I to XII in scripted on it

"Put it on" he told me "And when in danger, clench your fist"

I did and I found myself holding a spear, my spear

"Wow!" I said full of joy "Leo, this. Is. Amazing!"

"Yeah." He said

"Thanks" I said "I'm gonna get some sleep"

"No problem" He said "Hasta mañana"

"Hum… Yes" I said not sure if I had given the correct answer

He laughed, and I left.

Again, Jason and I fought for the spot, this time was "Who's taller". We measured and he was like half an inch taller than me.

"I win" I told him "I'm like a year younger"

"I never said anything about age" He said "Now go to the giant bed"

I still find it weird the big bed being the punishment

But we slept

In the middle of the night Rachel burst out the door and spat:

This is a quest for half-bloods of the greatest god

The number of demigods shall be odd

But not the same throughout the quest

They will pay for the actions of the rest

By uniting powers their reign will be clear

And they will throughout overcome fear.

"Not again" Jason said.

And we stood up.
