No I know the beginning is going to be boring but I'm trying to make a scenario of how strict the camp is

Reyna

Lupa went down the line of all the patrol units that had been stationed, checking to see if there was anything unusual. There seemed to be a lot more monsters attacking the camp since… no don't think about him! Jason is gone; thinking otherwise will only depress you! Assume he'll never come back, that way you'll never be more disappointed than you are now, and if he does… NO! Get a hold of yourself Reyna! Is talking to yourself a sign of madness? I'll have to talk to the Bacchus kids, see if they can help. Though they rarely do help anyone.

Reyna! Snapped a voice in my head. Uh-oh… I had drifted into thought and not realized it until she came to me…

"Sorry, Ma'am!" I said straightening, trying to keep my dignity as a high-ranking officer.

Report, Praetor! She growled softly.

"Yes, Ma'am! Sighting: Three Canes Inferi." (A/N if you don't remember, roman name for a hellhound)

Status!

"Disposed of, Ma'am!"

Continue!

"Yes, Ma'am! Sighting: One extremely large Draconis."

Status!

"Wounded, camp is on high alert, Ma'am!"

Continue!

"Yes, Ma'am! Sighting: Two Mulieres Anguibus." (A/N if you don't remember, these are gorgons and the Draconis is a dragon, they're just the Latin names)

Status!

"Disposed of, Ma'am!"

Continue!

"Yes, Ma'am! Sighting: Demigod; 6'1. Black hair, green eyes, strong build, tan. 16/17 years old, doesn't appear to be armed. Might or might not have been trained."

Status!

"Brought to camp, Ma'am! We request that you meet him for the Anean!" (A/N Latin for test. Yes I am going to continue to bring Latin words in)

Reyna, please stay after. I would like to discuss a matter with you…

We all knew better than to refuse Lupa.

"Yes, Ma'am!"

Praetor of the Second Legion, Report!—I zoned out after that again, thinking about the boy… He couldn't have survived to this age without training, or without companions and a weapon. He was a puzzle that I couldn't quite figure out. Some people say that I have the aim of an Apollo camper with the mind of a Minerva, so that if something confuses me I will not stop until I figure it out. It's more of a flaw than anything, really. Sometimes I just want to think of the arrow piercing its target, but nooooo, the other part of my mind has to think about the inertia and angle of projection.

Reyna… Lupa's voice was once again echoing through my head, softer than before now that we were alone.

"Yes, Lupa?" I had to call her ma'am in the presence of others to show respect but having been one of her pups longer than everyone except… Jason… she was less severe when it was just us.

We haven't had a demigod come to us older than twelve in a long time. Tell me about this half-blood…

"The truth… I'm really confused, Lupa. Confused and nervous. How could it be that for his whole life he either hasn't been attacked by monsters, or has fought them off well enough that he could survive knowing what he is? He didn't even have a weapon that I could see. I don't think he's a minor demigod either; he's strong, and by the looks of it, I think he's trained. He's confident; you can tell by the way he stands. He has amnesia, for the love of Jupiter! He has no idea who he is, yet he comes marching up to camp, takes the news like he's known all along, and doesn't protest! He's laid back, like he hasn't a worry in the world! That is no way to fight! You need discipline! And strike in an ordely manner!" I feel like I'm about to burst. Maybe I just don't know him. I haven't seen him since I left him with Alexis, after all.

Reyna! You are overreacting… you do not show weakness!

"Yes Lupa…" I mumble

I have spoken with Alexis, and I'm sure I have a good theory for who he is…

"Who?"

Go, pup. I will speak with you tomorrow. Something was wrong; she never held back information from me.

"But Lup—" she cut me off with a growl.

What was that, Pup?

"Nothing, Lupa. Sorry, Lupa." I said.

Good. You are dismissed! She snarled with a conviction that no one would ever question.

"Yes, Lupa…" I said and I backed out the door, only to freeze outside by what I heard next.

I see you have played your most desperate card, Lady Juno. I never thought this day would come so soon. You know that we had a huge war not just a few months ago. What was Juno doing here? She almost never showed up except to give Jason some task, but Jason wasn't here…

"Oh, you know it was necessary. The time has come for you to come together. I am in grave danger from this new challenge as we speak." Juno was in danger? Was that why Jason was gone?

If you are in need of assistance, we will gladly issue a quest, Lady. Lupa sneered, as if saving Juno wasn't high on her 'To-Do' list.

"Oh, really, there is no need." Juno waved it off. "Your counterparts are already working towards that goal…" Counterparts? I've never heard of any counterparts to the Roman camp. "What I need from your camp, is to convince my bone-headed, ignorant husband to re-open Olympus. The gods must be present in the world if we wish to stand a chance." No one in the Roman camp has ever gone to Olympus… How are we supposed to get up there? The gods have gone silent? And we were told never to go to New York; it's where the monsters are the strongest. And now we are supposed to travel across the country into the most monster infested place in America to travel to Olympus, which no one has ever gone to, to convince the gods to be part of a war that Jupiter gave the verdict they would not participate in, and if we fail the demigods won't stand a chance against this new, unknown enemy? No problem… If only we still had Jason. He had experience doing the impossible….

Why not send our 'counterparts' she said it with contempt to Olympus? They have more practice with that, and they are closer.

"Lupa, you of all people should know that if the fates picked your camp for this quest, there must be a reason… It would not be good to challenge the fates. It didn't work out too well last time, did it?" I had no idea what she was talking about, but I didn't have much time before there was a bright glow from inside and I had to turn away. I ran back to the Apollo cabin before I could even tempt myself to run in and demand answers.

Slumping down onto my bed, I ran all my new information. It didn't make sense! Who are our counterparts and why doesn't Lupa approve of them? Why, if Juno was in danger, did we not do anything? Why did life get so complicated, just when I thought we might get a break?

Before I knew it, I was asleep….

MUST READ! First of all, I want to apologize for the bad chapter but it will add some mystery (I hope). Alright. I've gotten about 1 or 2 reviews a chapter (By the way, a thanks to The IronRAVEN xvx! I enjoy reading your review and you have given me the most comments. I really appreciate it!) and if you are reading I would really like to know what you think I could do better, what you like that I'm doing, what you want to happen, the couples you think there should be (though I won't do too much fluff), and other things. I'm here to let you know that I will not post another chapter unless I get either 5 reviews, or for five days. Each review I get, I will take off a day until I post another chapter. If I get a lot of reviews, I might do something like 2 or 3 chapters in one day. Thanks to everyone who has reviewed or is following this story!
