Chapter 4: Annabeth

My eyes searched the crowd looking for him. I ultimately found him- wearing a toga with a purple cape? But I don't care as I start running towards him I notice a girl standing next to him watching me approach. Is she his girlfriend? Once I get within ten feet of him I hear a growl and suddenly there are two things blocking my way to Percy. He looks at the girl standing next to him and then to the animal automatons in front of me. Just then five soldiers surrounded me with their weapons at the ready.

"Do not go near the praetors, Graeceus," one of them hissed.

"Praetor?" I asked in confusion. Then my intellect kicked in a praetor was one of two leaders for Ancient Rome's legionnaire army. Percy was one of the Roman camp's leaders!

"Aurum et Argentum non requiri fidem. Praetor receptui MMXVI usque dicuntur in ministerium," Percy told the automatons in Latin. They immediately vanished and he looked accusingly at the girl next to him, "Did you call them Reyna? We are all friends here, this is Annabeth." The girl looked upset at what he said, and Percy turned to me and smiled apologetically at me, "Sorry about Aurum and Argentum, they are a little overprotective," he said with a glance at the girl I assumed to be Reyna. I caught the double meaning in what he said but pushed it away.

"Seaweed Brain!" I said as I tackled him in a hug, "I've been so worried about you! Have you been here the whole time? What's with this praetor thing? Since when do you speak Latin? What were those things? What about-"Percy silenced me with a kiss, and as I looked in his eyes I didn't even mind being cut off, he was back where he belonged-with me. When he finally broke away I could tell he didn't want to but everyone was staring- had been staring since the automatons appeared, but he held tightly to my hand as though afraid that I might disappear.

"I don't speak Latin it's just a command sequence for Aurum and Argentum. They are programed to protect the praetors. And as for the whole praetor thing I'll explain later," he said it with his most charming smile, the one I haven't seen in months and have missed desperately, that I couldn't argue.

"I believe another Senate meeting is in order with our new…friends," Reyna shouted over all of the noise. "Centurions, seniors of your cohort, and Greek visitors convene at the Senate House immediately," then speaking only to Percy she said, "Don't worry about Jason- you are a praetor and are expected to join me in leading the meeting." Just then Jason came up to them and gave Reyna a smile which she didn't return.

"Hello, Reyna. Am I in trouble for being abducted by a goddess against my will, even after I told her that you would kill me for being kidnapped and told her that she would suffer your wrath?" he asked jokingly.

"Yes, you are being held accountable for being missing," Reyna said frostily. And when she turned to Percy her voice was still cold but not glacial, "Meet me at the Senate House."

Percy nodded," Can you take Annabeth? I have to talk to Jason."

"Fine, you are into architecture correct?" Reyna asked me.

"Yes I am, I suppose Percy told you," I say cautiously.

"He never stopped," Reyna said with a smile, "Come on the Senate House is this way."
