Reason and Past Sin

Annabeth

As I walked into camp again I looked to my right and saw Noah speaking with Deuce. I was so happy he was alright, I had been so worried when he had disappeared without a trace, but now he's back.

Watching the two of them talking and laughing warm my heart.

I just met Deuce but It feels like I have known her my whole life perhaps it's because she my mental-clone, or perhaps she was saved and raised by my seaweed brain.

I mean.. sure at first I was stunned. And I would be lying I don't say that I was a bit mad at him because he's out there rescuing a cute little girl and raising her as his own daughter without me while he did promise me that after he had become a Master he would return to earth to make me his wife, therefore binding us for life, and we would raise our own children on Arcadia. That was his plan.

Now thirteen years later, six teenagers come to Earth and claim that Percy is their adopted father and that one of the kids is my clone. But perhaps that's not a bad thing, at least he didn't cheat on me or even try to find a replacement. Unlike me.

My eyes slowly worked their way down to my hand, where there was a tan line where a heavy diamond ring used to sit.

A gift from my ex-fiance, Jake Matthew a man that I once meet four years ago.

Jake was a mortal who can see through the mist. I meet him when I was doing some work on a museum that he was working in and I can tell that he fell for me hard.

I never meant to be in a relationship with him, but after ten years without Percy, and then with Piper, Rachel, my mom and even Sally pushing me to move on. I caved.

I dated him for a while, for 4 years to be exact.

He loved me nearly as much as Percy did and he was fine when I told him about my relationship with Percy, what he meant to me and Noah. He was so understanding and he loved me so deeply.

But alas, I could not reciprocate such a love.

My heart battled as to whether I should love him back or not during the course of our dating and I almost gave up on Percy when Jake knelt upon the ground and asked me to marry him in front of his mother and everyone during my thirty-second birthday.

I say yes to him thinking that perhaps Percy had forgotten about me and about how I had been so alone for so long. After a month of staring at the ring I was ready to marry him, leave Percy behind and we were planning a grand wedding like his mother wanted.

I was so busy planning my wedding until I received that video.

A video that show me the truth about Jake.

On the video Jake was sleeping with his boss, Martha. I was heartbroken and confront Jake. He denied it at first but after I show him the video he confess that he sleep with Martha to punish me. He used his boss to punish me for loving Percy so much more than I had him while he give everything just to make me happy.

I admit I was touched by it but the love that I almost had for him disappeared because unlike Percy, he hurt me intentionally because he loved me so much and can't accept that I was never his.

That was something that I could never accept.

So after a big fight I left him and sent back the ring to his mother along with my apologies. Some of my friends, mostly mortal, say that it was my fault for thinking about Percy.

I would have gone back to Jake if Noah hadn't told me that Jake had been hitting him for looking too much like his father.

That was the final straw, I cut all my connection with the mortal world and decide to stay in New Athens.

Noah turned to look at me and smiled and I smiled back as a pang of guilt when through me, he looks so much like Percy, how could I ever think to replace him.

Suddenly out of the corner of my eye I see someone and I looked over to see Ace standing by the rock climbing wall.

As I watch I feel something stir inside me. A feeling that I just want to go near him and hug him. The same feeling that I had with Noah and Deuce.

"He's pretty cool huh?" Thalia came beside and I looked over at her in confusion.

"Who?" I asked and she rolled her eyes.

"Oh don't act clueless, I see you staring at him." She disregarded my answered and I sighed in defeat.

"Is it that obvious?" I asked sadly and she smiled at me.

"As obvious as a sunburned person in a blizzard." She stated and I blushed, "Nah, I'm just kidding, it's not but since I've known you practically your whole live I notice things about you more than others. "You like him don't you?" She asked and I looked down at the ground sadly.

"I-it's…complicated." I said.

"How?" She asked and I sighed.

"There's just something about him, something…familiar. He has a certain aura to him, one I know a lot and miss and his voice is so familiar and send shivers down my spine and I do…like him, but not as strong in the way that I felt for Percy and definitely not the way I felt for Jake" I whispered so only she could hear me.

She make a face when she heard Jake's name,

Thalia never did like him, and she was the one who kept saying that Jake was cheating on me.

At first I though she was angry because I was moving on and was making an excuse for me to leave him, but now I feel guilty for not listening to her.

"So how do you feel for him?" Sensing my guilt she quickly asked.

"It's like how I felt for Noah and Deuce, I want to protect him and listen to his story and be the shoulder for him to cry and that got me thinking" I turned around facing her.

"If Deuce is my clone and Nine is Jason, do you think that he's"

"Kelp head clone?" she said.

"Could be, I mean not including his hair color and his personality he has the most perfect sculpture of Percy face and physical body" I point out.

"So what if he's Seaweed clone, what are you gonna do about it? I mean Annie that boy is kinda, you know" Thalia carefully asked.

I shared her concern. Unlike Deuce or the others, Ace was a loner. He didn't interact with the campers, he didn't eat with the campers and he seem to busying himself with training.

Hades he didn't seem to care about Refia when clearly the girl has a massive crush on him.

"I don't know yet but I have a feeling that I will love him just as I love Noah and Deuce" she nodded in understanding.

"Well let's get to the big house, Ace said that he wanted to tell us something" she said as Noah and Deuce came to us.

I followed them and wondering where Percy is and what his motive were for sending Class Zero here.

We reached the big house and took our places.

Time has passed and many things have changed but the atmosphere of camp half-blood is still the same. Looking around I see Clarisse arguing with Will Solace, Travis flirting with his girlfriend Katie, Jake Mason and Pollux are debating the merits of their favored beverages, Piper is arguing with her new son Nine about his hair style while Jason defending it, Hazel who has taken over her brother's role as a senior counselor watches the others as Frank holds her, while Aria has an in depth conversation with Reyna.

A flash of light blinds us for a moment and the gods along with the Masters appear and take their place alongside their children.

"So Ace what is it that you wanted to tell us?" Poseidon began.

Ace pushed a button on his bracer and a sack materials appeared on the ping pong table.

He opened the sack and pull out an Ark head.

"I found a small Ark camp three kilometer to the south east of the camp, probably for recon."

Throughout the room silence reigned. How did the Ark manage to create a camp so close to us without any of us noticing.

"However that's not the problem." he said grimly "This is our problem." He summoned a dagger, oddly looking the same as the dagger that I had lost while in Tartarus, and easily cut part of the Ark.

"The armor is weak" Jack pointed out.

Ace nodded and the dagger vanished." And their firepower is not as great as it was during the battle of Myrkr, "they can't even penetrate my first layer of defence, they're too weak."

"Too weak?! Those things nearly destroy the first cohort." Reyna exclaimed.

Last week twenty Ark warriors attacked Camp Jupiter and nearly leveled it. Camp Jupiter would not be standing had Lord Mars not intervened on our behalf.

"They're weak in comparison to when we fought against them during the Great War." Ace simply said.

"What does this mean?" Cinque ask, for someone that acted childish much of the time, her voice seemed mature.

"No idea, I already sent some to father and he-"

"Hold on a minute, how did you send something to Arcadia that fast?" the masked Master, Zachariah I believe interrupt.

"I didn't need to send it to Arcadia, father is here aboard the Minerva." I was stunned. The Minerva, according to Deuce is the flagship of the Navy of Chaos, which is orbiting earth.

"If Percy inside the Minerva that mean's..."

"Papa is here?!" Cinque yelled in excitement.

"Yes he is" Ace said almost as if he knew it since the beginning.

"Hang on if Percy is here then why he didn't come down to earth."Thalia asked.

In sync we looked at Master Ventus for explanation.

"Don't look at me beside that is not my place to say." he stared pointedly (B/N: I hope that's a word) at Ace.

Realizing that we all watching him, he sighed "Father wanted to come down but he has something to do first"

"What's so important that he ignored all of us?" Katie asked. Her voice clearly showing that she was sad.

"Yes Ace what so important that father refused to come?" Deuce also asked which tells me that Percy is hiding something, even from his children.

"Father does not have anything important to do right now," Ace said honestly. "The real reason why he doesn't want to come is because he's ashamed, and fears what you will all of think of him. He is afraid you will hate him."

Silence filled the room once more.

"What did he do and why does he think that we will think differently of him?" A gentle voice asked. I turn around and see Sally appear and walking closer to Ace.

Her gaze on Ace was so pure, something that can melt even the hardest heart. Slowly Ace looked up and in a voice that reminded me of Percy when ever he reflected on those who had died in Manhattan.

Slowly he said "How do you forgive a man that led billions to War? How can you forgive someone who has more blood on his hand than anyone else? How can you forgive a man that burn 2.47 billion innocent children even if it were in the name of peace and sanity? How can you forgive someone that has commit a crime that silence the universe"

In that moment I realize that Percy has suffer greatly. He feel responsible for the death of a hundred billion souls. No society would accept him though none would turn him down, he is guilty of crimes against the innocent. And yet he still fighting for the peace of the universe.
