Annabeth woke up in a bed that was not hers, looking around noticed that she was not in her cabin, she did not even think she was in the camp.

Everything in that big room was white, the soft and wide bed, the sheets, the small armchair, and the coffee table in the center of everything. There was a desk with an immaculately white chair, boy, even the clothes she was wearing were white.

She wore a Greek-style dress, the fabric was light and fell to her feet, the only thing that stood out in her strange outfit were two gold clasps on her shoulders that held the straps of the dress. Upon examining them she noticed that they had an engraved owl.

She ran to the mirror hanging on the wall opposite the desk and to her horror saw that she looked the same as she had been dressed back on Circe's island. Her hair was braided with silver ribbons, her lips were red, and her eyes stood out more than ever due to the white and gold eye shadow that surrounded them.

She sighed with relief to see that she still had her two pairs of owl earrings. As she put a hand to her ear and touched the smaller earrings, something clicked in her head.

Percy.

"Percy! I had to speak to Percy!"

She ran around the room looking for a door but there was none, not even a window

"PERCY!"

...

Leo ran as fast as he could (and he stumbled more than twice). When he heard the news, he was on the deck of the Argo II eating chocolate with Piper, he had finally been able to calm her down, and suddenly the Stolls came running as if they had seen a ghost.

"Leo!"

"You have to come!"

"Now!" They did not understand very well what they were saying because they lack the air from so much running.

"Are you fine?"

"Some water?"

"No!"

"You do not understand!"

"Explain yourselves."

"On the dock...

"What happened?"

"Calypso"

It was all it took to jump off the ship. He got down as fast as he could and ran to the dock with Piper and the Stolls behind him. If they had paid a little attention they would have seen that Hazel's glass box was empty.

When they reached the pier Leo pushed his way through until he was next to Frank and Chris.

"Where ...?" He didn't finish speaking, a flash of brown hair on a small boat took his breath away. On one side of the ship was Percy (standing on the water) talking to the girl who had changed the life of Hephaestus' son forever.

"Calypso"

"Is she really?" Everyone around him asked.

"Sure". Piper who was next to him noticed that his friend's attitude changed as soon as he heard the girl's name pronounced. He stood up straighter, his expression was more serious and since he got off the Argo II he kept running his hand over his hair in a vain attempt to comb his hair.

"Calm yourself". She said in his ear and holding his hand preventing him from further ruining his hair.

As the ship began to approach them escorted by Percy, Leo couldn't help but shiver. During the time he had been separated from her he had not stopped thinking about the moments they spent together, their love-hate relationship made the boy miss her even more.

he had spent sleepless nights devising some way of finding her island to go after her and free her from her solitary prison, he had even spoken to his father but it was useless for him to reveal that information to him.

All he had managed to do was get Hermes to bring her a gift from him. A bracelet that he himself had made had their names engraved and a hologram image of the mongrel camp that appeared when she pressed a small button.

"Calm yourself". Piper said again.

The ship finally came to stand next to them and Percy helped the girl through descended the boat. Leo called himself a fool more than once in his mind for not having repaired the pier when Annabeth told him to do so.

"I ... uh," he managed to mumble but was interrupted by Calypso's arms around his neck.

"Leo!" She said, kissing him on the cheek. She continued to hug him as the boy awkwardly placed his arms around her waist, returning the hug.

When they separated they stood holding hands looking at each other. Leo could feel the gaze of the entire camp on them and did not know if he was flushed by the presence of Calypso or by them.

Percy seemed to notice his friend's discomfort and scattered the onlookers.

"Get back to your activities! Give them a little space!"

Leo thanked him with a look as the embarrassment passed a little.

"I missed you so much". he said in a whisper.

"Me too. But I was confident that you would achieve victory with your mission".

"Thanks to you"

"To me? I did nothing"

"You helped me to return, otherwise I would not have been able to help my friends."

...

They were on the beach talking throughout the day, they played in the water and even had a small picnic thanks to Piper who brought them a basket with everything they needed.

"Did you get my ... Hermes you ... liked ...

"I love it! Look!". The boy gave her his biggest smile when he saw the bracelet on her wrist.

"Thank you"

"It was so you wouldn't forget me."

"How could I ever forget you?"

Leo did not fit in himself of the happiness that he felt and of all the new feelings and emotions that Calypso made him feel.

It made the boy blush again. But he took the courage to approach her, fully intending to kiss her. They were inches apart when a voice startled them.

"LEO! "

It was Hazel.

And she was furious.

...

"Percy!" I felt a blow to the head but it was as if it didn't matter. Someone had said my name.

"What!"

"I've asked you more than ten times until what time do you plan to keep looking for her." Frank huffed as he followed me through the woods.

"did you call me before?"

"Yes, my friend, I've already told you more than TEN times." He sounded a bit annoyed, as well as exhausted.

"I mean before."

"What?"

"Did you say my name? You yelled at me?"

"No. I am next to you, it is not necessary to shout"

"Someone said my name."

"It was me, geez, what's wrong with you? Are you like this for Annabeth? "

"It's just that... a girl called out my name."

"And you think it was me? I did not know I had a girl's voice, I will try to make my voice deeper" he said as he cleared his throat and grabbed my shoulder to stop me.

"I think it was Annabeth."

"Percy, nobody but me said your name. I did not hear anything."

"It was her, I'm sure!" I snapped causing my friend to look at me with a bit of pity.

"So? Where is she?"

"I do not know. I only heard my name."

"you have to rest. You've been searching for her relentlessly since last night" Frank was trying to reason with me like someone trying to explain something to a little boy.

"That is not true. I took a nap in the infirmary".

"Being unconscious from a blow to the face does not count as rest."

"Well then, I'll keep looking for her until I can't take it anymore."

"You need sleep, Percy."

"I have to find her Frank!"

"You have to sleep. It's almost dusk you will never find her if it is already dark"

"I agree, but you're not going to stop me from looking for her as soon as dawn comes."

"I will accompany you myself, me. Now we have to return because without us Leo already will blow up the camp" We started walking back, Frank almost had to drag me as I was reluctant to stop searching for my Annabeth.

"Maybe she can make him mature a little."

"I think she already did."

...

Suddenly we heard a noise behind us and went to investigate when we heard a groan.

"That's not a monster," I whispered as I pulled Riptide out.

"Let's go"

Surrounding some bushes we found Jason. He was covered in scratches and mud. He looked broken. For a moment I forgot everything and walked towards him to help him. But he raised his face and said the only thing that made me remember what had happened.

"Annabeth"

An impulse of anger ran through me and when I realized it I was on top of him hitting him.
