Hey guys, new characters.

Don't worry. The story will still mainly be focused around Jet, Brooke and Clint.

I just thought it would be cool to have some Roman perspectives as well. Anyways, I hope you enjoy.

Freddie & Vern

Freddie

I hear a knock on the door. What in pluto is it now?

I open the door to a familiar face. It was Hazel, Centurion of the fifth cohort. My cohort.

"Hey, Freddie." She says, "Sorry to disturb you but… it's about your brother."

"Oh great. What is he up to now." I reply.

She hesitates, then finally speaks. "He's… he's gone out."

I sigh, "to?"

"To… fight monsters."

"What?" I yell in disbelief, "What'd he go and do that for?"

"I... I... don't know but he said something about proving himse — ."

I grab my quarterstaff and storm out the building. I reach the entrance of the Caldecott but before I go in Hazel stops me. She brought a couple of other legionnaires from my cohort with her. I recognize most of them but only as acquaintances. I never really made friends because most didn't trust me, being a child of Laverna and all. Hazel was the only one I did call 'friend' besides my brother. Hazel and Frank were the only ones who gave us a chance, even Percy when he stopped by. Reyna...she was getting there. Percy was actually a really good guy, I'm surprised none of the fame got to his head. Most of the Greeks were like that. Just nice people, who didn't care (or know) about my family's history. Honestly, I wished we met up with Greeks more.

"I thought you could use some help, it's pretty dangerous out there." Hazel says.

I smile, "Aren't you coming?."

She shakes her head, "I can't. I have some business with Percy that he wants to speak about."

I nod and she walks back to the barracks. I look at the rest of the group and gesture them to follow me.

Vern

Okay… oh monsters, oh monsters. Where art thou monsters?

I've been looking for the past hour but so far I've had no luck. I decided not to bring my brother because he would've been all like:

"I'm Freddie. I'm too responsible and too cool to be doing that. Eh… My hair is so cool." Or something along those lines.

I walk through the streets, trying to spot anything out of the — oh… that purse looks nice. No, stop it Vern. You're here to fight monsters, not live up to your stereotype. But it's a Valentino bag… NO. Uh... I can't pick.

Monsters or Valentino bag.

Monsters or Valentino bag.

Monsters or Valentino bag…Ah screw it. Valentino bag.

I sneak through groups of people, diving behind benches, ducking under lamp posts, being non-chalant as possible. I see the woman sitting on a bench with the bag to her side, completely exposed. I creep up behind her and reach into her bag. Well, shouldn't be a problem. It'll be just like any other grab. I just find anything valuable like a — snake!?

I leap backwards a good 5 feet, screaming like a little girl… I mean boy. The woman stands up and looks straight at me.

"The hell lady!?" I say, "Who keeps snakes in their purse?"

That's weird, the lady's hair looks like it's moving, as if it was its own living organism.

The woman speaks, "Oh my child. Didn't your parents tell you it was very bad to steal?"

"Ha! Jokes on you… I never met my parents!" That just sounds really sad now.

The woman then slowly unwraps the rag around her hair, revealing hundreds of snakes on her head. It's a Gorgon, though I don't know which one. Probably not Medusa because I haven't become a museum exhibit so far.

Freddie

A scream came from the park, that's probably Vern. We follow the sound of the scream which is later followed by more screams. We finally reach the park but I don't see any sign of —

"FreddieFreddieFreddieFreddie!" Oh, there he is.

"Hey... little bro!"

"Oh thank god, Freddie you're here." He says, "Oh… Freddie. I've missed you so much…."

"Are — are you crying?" I ask, "nevermind, what happened?"

He takes in a deep breath, "Well… I was looking for monsters and I couldn't find any so I was like 'oh no' I can't find anything, so I was like bad luck but I keep looking, then I see this Valentino bag and I was like 'no Vern, don't live up to the stereotype', but I did and then I try and pickpocket the bag and I find a snake, making me scream and then the woman who owns the bag looks at me and — "

"There you are," a voice hisses, "oh… and you brought friends, how pleasant."

I look at Vern, "a Gorgon? A freaking Gorgon!?"

"I'm so… sorry Freddie."

"Whatever bro, it's fine." I say, "Let's just deal with her first."

His eyes light up, "Alright! Vern and Freddie on the Case!"

I ready my quarterstaff, the rest of us do the same. Uh… but without quarterstaves.

Vern

Oh yeah! Vern and Freddie 'bout to kick some Gorgon butt.

Freddie charges at the Gorgon. Spinning his stick — sorry… quarterstaff he calls it, deflecting a flurry of bows. The rest of the guys he brought with him charges in and starts to attack as well. Her razor sharp fingers scracthing the surfaces of their shields I notch an arrow into my bow and aim straight for the Gorgon's head but she moves just in time. I only manage to shoot of one of her snakes. She screams in agony and starts making a b-line for me. Not good.

Her brass hands swipes at me but I roll out of the way shooting another arrow directly after. It wizzed straight passed her head. That one was a complete miss. She goes for me again but she was stopped when Freddie smacked her on the side of the face. You can call it whatever, but when Freddie wields that staff, he's like a kung-fu master. He does everything, flashy tricks and all. The others start poking their spears at her but she just breaks them in half.

"How the hell do we kill this thing?" I ask.

"I dunno, shoot it in the face?" he replies.

"I can't get a close enough shot, and she moves too much."

Freddie falls silent.

"Hey!" I snap my fingers at him, "Now's not the time for your 'cool brooding' moments."

"We could do the spinning arrow."

"Are you serious? That was only for a show so we could get people to like us… and they still don't like us." I say, "Also, I did not agree on calling it the spinning arrow."

"Just hear me out," he replies, "I'll draw her attention and when she gets close enough, you shoot her."

"That's if I can make the shot."

He puts his hand on my shoulder, "I believe in you bro." Like that's supposed to make me feel better

Freddie

I start spinning my quarterstaff in front of me. Kind of like a human-windmill. Vern's directly behind me, bow at the ready. I shout at the Gorgon:

"Hey! Snake eyes!"

She turns her head to our direction and moves straight towards us. Still spinning the staff.

"Fun little trick demigod," she hisses, "but it won't stop me."

She starts getting close and I panic a little bit.

"Bro… now or never." I say.

"Not yet."

"She's getting closer!"

"Shut up!"

"Vern!"

"And... gotcha." He releases his arrow, zooming straight threw my spinning staff. The Gorgon's face was filled with surprise for she didn't see the arrow incoming (because of my brilliant spinning skills) and she explodes into dust.

I start whooping in celebration, the other legionnaires rolling their eyes.

"Yeah! Spinning Arrow!" I yell. "I knew you could do it bro!."

"Still gotta work on the name." he replies.

We start returning back to camp until somebody appears in front of us, stopping us in our tracks. He didn't look like a monster, instead he just stared at us with a grin. He wore a three piece suit but without the jacket, so he just had the vest and pants. His sleeves rolled up to his elbows. His circular shades full of darkness. He smiles and speaks:

"Ah... a perfect example." He pulls out a stop watch and starts swinging it side to side. I start to feel dizzy, everyone else starts falling around me. Everything goes black.

That's the end of the chapter for my newly introduced Roman OC's.

Their perspective will not recur as much as the others but they'll have some moments.

The reason I didn't have the brothers as separate chapters in this one was because I think it would get too messy. Plus, they're a package deal.

I hope you guys enjoyed reading and please send me a review.
