Chapter 6:
The dining pavilion looks really amazing. It looks a little familiar though.
When we entered, we passed by Bobby, who, has Reyna informed me, was sitting on the Mars table.
"Nice shirt, dolphin!" Bobby smirked, with that thoughtful remark, everyone's heads turned and laughed at me. I faced Reyna and rolled my eyes, I cursed in Ancient Greek out loud and Reyna quickly placed my mouth gag. I glared at Bobby who seemed shocked about my outburst, like the other campers. Reyna pulled me outside.
"What was that?" she asked me and removed my gag.
"I don't know." I shrugged.
"You spoke in Ancient Greek, didn't you?"
"I guess, but how'd you know it was Greek?"
Dakota had this book. It was a Greek to English dictionary, hand written, she doesn't know who wrote it, but she just found it by the creek.
"And what's wrong if I speak Greek?"
"Percy, we're at Legion Camp, we speak Latin, not Greek."
"Lupa likes Latin? Why so hard on me? You're the one who sent me to those Aphrodite girls."
"Aphrodite? Percy, we have to tell Lupa about this!"
"As if I have a choice, do you mind untying the rope?"
"No, come on let's go tell Lupa about- Wait, no, we won't tell her yet, don't tell anybody about this okay?"
"Okay."
When we went back to the Dining pavilion, everyone had already left. I saw the food on a vacant table and my mouth watered. I began devouring every single bit on my plate, but then again I had a mouth gag. It was hard, but I begged Reyna to remove it. But I was still tied up (well only my upper body), so I just used my mouth. When I finished, Reyna raised an eyebrow.
"Well, I was really hungry." I said with my mouth full.
"Ain't that the truth." she said and rolled her eyes.
I started getting thirsty, so Reyna helped me get a drink."
"So, please don't send me back to the Aphrodite cabin-"
"Venus!"
"Well, Venus cabin, don't send me back there for asking, who's Jason?"
She froze. She dropped her eating utensils and handed them to a satyr. I was surprised I remembered the term.
"Percy, I'm sorry I've treated you badly every time you asked something like that. You actually have the right to know." she said.
I faced her and listened for more.
"Jason, is a good friend of mine, yes, I can say we're close. He's a son of Jupiter. He just suddenly disappeared, and then that day, I went outside and found you lying on those rocks. Everyone went to search for him. Right now different groups of satyrs and demigods are searching for him."
I wondered if anyone would even search for me, and if the girl, Annabeth, would even care to look for me if we were even close.
