Hi. I have returned despite a severe case of writers block. I shall hate this thing forever! T_T

Anyways, because of that, this chapter might suck a little. it truly might.

I just wanted to give some extra thanks to Thalia Bolt for helping me with some mistakes I made in the last chapter. My Beta kinda disappeared, so I need all the help I can get! THANK YOU!

Anonymous: New Years day is so much better. Agreed? lol. But here it is!

Disclaimer: No create thought. Writers block instead. No own Percy Jackson and all those other amazing people that Rick Riordan created. That I have crushes on *blushes and covers face with hand.*

Frank

The Roman Demigods took charge of Octavian, getting their weapons back, and leading him off.

But Reyna stayed behind for a few minutes with some of the other Legionaries.

"Thank you Centurion Zhang. I may be a good soldier, but there are few people who are good enough to beat that many Roman Legionaries when taken by surprise. I'm a little surprised you helped, when tomorrow I could officially be your enemy." She said calmly.

Frank looked at her eyes and read the deeper message. She wouldn't be his enemy. But she really did want to thank him.

"You're welcome. And Reyna . . ." She turned to look at him. "You aren't my enemy. I am a member of the Legion. Not matter what anyone thinks, Hazel, Jason, Percy and I did not betray the Legion. And I don't think we ever will. At least not on purpose."

Reyna nodded. And then she and the other Romans left.

Frank sighed. He was really tired now. He had thought all he'd have to do was hand over the Athena Parthenos to Reyna and then he could go and sleep. It wasn't really his turn to guard the borders.

Especially seeing as he was still recovering from his wounds.

"Dude. You make an awesome elephant!" Leo crowed, jumping out from the bushes and waiting for a high five.

Frank sighed and gave it to him. At least Leo was trying to be nice.

"Thanks. Can I go back to Camp. I'm a little worn out." He said, yawning. This was exhausting.

Jason nodded. "Yes Frank, go and get some sleep. And good job seeing them attacking her. And you might want to make sure Hazel isn't freaking out. I'm pretty sure all of both Camps heard you when you were an elephant." The son of Jupiter laughed lightly.

Frank laughed too. He hadn't thought of that. "Yeah. See you two later. Good luck!" He turned into a hawk and flew away.

He was really glad that Camp wasn't very far away. The woods were only about ten miles in a half circle around Camp, while the other side was the beach.

Which meant that no matter where he was in the woods, it wouldn't take him that long to get back.

He could see Piper, Hazel and Nico standing next to Malcolm in the dining pavilion looking nervously towards the woods.

He swooped down and landed next to them, turning back into his normal self.

Hazel shrieked, and within seconds her arms were around him and she was squeezing all the air out of him.

"Hey . . ." Frank protested weakly. "Hazel, I have to breath!" She let him go and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek.

"You scared me! What happened?" She demanded. Her eyes were wide, and she was trembling slightly.

Frank sighed and ran his hand through his short military style hair. "Octavian followed Reyna into the woods. She was still about a hundred yards away when he attacked. Apparently he told some of the Legionaries that she was a traitor, and they believed him. I went to help. I needed to get Jason and Leo's attention so I turned into an elephant." He said calmly.

"Is everyone ok?" Piper asked just as Malcolm's eyes widened and he interrupted.

"Did this ruin the plan?" He asked. He looked worried. The other two Demigods fell silent and looked at Frank.

He shook his head. "No, I think it made it more likely for it to work. Octavian's soldiers were from the Fourth Cohort and under, and those were the ones that Reyna was having trouble with. I said we were on border patrol, and such. They believed me, thanked us for helping Reyna, because I knew some of those Legionaries, and they just let us go."

Malcolm's jaw dropped. Hazel looked blown away, especially since she was actually a Roman. And Piper smiled. "I'm glad it worked out." She said calmly. "Is Jason ok?"

Frank nodded. "He and Leo stayed behind in case Reyna comes back for the statue."

Malcolm nodded. He no longer looked so completely surprised.

Hazel gave Frank another hug. "You scared me." She whispered again. Frank hugged her back. He really hadn't thought of that when fighting his old friends.

"Sorry. Melody was there. And Jonathan and Ryan." He said quietly.

Hazel's eyes widened. Both of them were new enough to have trained with the same people. So she knew exactly who he was talking about.

"I thought they hated Octavian?" She said in surprise.

Frank nodded. "Oh they still do. He blackmailed them. So the instant we told them we weren't there to plot their destruction with Reyna, they turned on Octavian."

Hazel took a step back. Frank looked at her pretty golden brown eyes. They were thinking hard.

"With them on our side, we might just win this war." She said quietly.

The other Demigods all stared at Hazel in shock. Frank swallowed. It was true. Without the Romans, they were doomed. There was no way they would be able to win without help.

And the Romans were certainly based more on their Military than the Greeks. So they could help improve the fighting skills.

Frank highly doubted the Romans could improve much else.

Camp Half-blood was amazing. The people were nice, the Cabins were cool. Frank kind of liked it better than Camp Jupiter. It was a guilty thought admittedly, but it was true.

Even the Fauns- er Satyrs were better. They actually knew how to do things.

Although Frank was pretty sure Coach Hedge wasn't the best example. At least he was already better than the Fauns.

Plus, The Greeks showed emotion a lot easier than any of the Romans.

Even Frank, Hazel and Jason knew how to act like nothing was happening. They could have absolutely no emotion on their faces or in their eyes.

Frank doubted that any of the Greeks could truly do that. And if they could, it would be Annabeth and Percy.

Percy maybe for about ten seconds in a battle to the death.

Annabeth . . . well Frank had seen her death glare. She could probably do it.

Frank was glad there was a limited amount who could do it though. He couldn't even imagine what would happen if the Greeks were as ruthless as the Romans could be.

If the Greeks had been that ruthless, Frank was pretty sure that the Romans never would have existed.

Meh. Just a thought I had.
Review please!
