LEO POV

Leo was pretty sure the nap was supposed to help Percy, not make him worse. But, whenever he and the others went to wake him up the next morning, he was freezing cold and shaking.

"That's not...normal, is it?" Thalia asked, hesitantly

Annabeth frowned, "No, I don't think so,"

After a moment she sighed, "I guess I'll go get Will, see what we can do,"

Piper nodded, "I'll come with,"


There wasn't anything wrong.

Okay, no, obviously that wasn't right, but according to Will, there wasn't anything visibly wrong. Other than the fact that he was shivering cold and sweating at the same time, his heart rate was completely normal, his temperature, his vitals, and his breathing was all normal.

Everything was normal.

"I'm not sure if that's worse or better," Will murmured now, brows furrowing.

"Will he be okay?" Jason asked

At this point it was no longer aww, Percy's so cute, and he's never going to live this down. Instead, it was, do something, anything, because they weren't sure if this was going to last.

"I think so, I think...I'm not one hundred percent certain, but I think that his body to trying to get rid of whatever spell Medea put on him,"

"So...he'll get over it?"

"I'm like ninety percent positive,"

That was better than nothing.

"So, what do we do now?" Leo asked, looking down at Percy.

He looked back up at him and waved. Leo blinked at him a moment before waving back.

"Percy, buddy, are you hungry?"

Percy nodded slightly, rolling over and flipping so that his legs went over the side of the bed.

"I want pancakes,"

"Geez, for somebody not feeling well, you really do want the worst breakfast you could have," Will mutters, but grabs Percy's hand and leads him out the door.

"He'll be okay right?" Piper asks, after they're gone, "I mean...ninety percent sure is good, right?"

"I hope so," Leo says, following them.


Chiron had another cure. Hopefully, this time, it would work. It wouldn't make him sick, and it would undo his tiny 6-year-old self, and change him back into his normal 17-year-old-self.

As annoying as Percy was and as much as Leo would never admit, he missed him.

After breakfast, Chiron made him drink it (even though he really didn't want to), and told him to go play for a bit. How good playing would be, Leo wasn't sure, since the tiny child almost didn't even get out of bed this morning.

They opted for walking around, instead.

They were no longer taking turns, instead just following him around. After the incident of him almost going into the woods, despite everybody going after him, Chiron suggested that at least two people stay with him.

And then he got sick and nobody wanted to leave. So they just followed him around like a bunch of baby ducklings.

Frank tried turning into different animals to see if that would help, but Percy barely smiled. The only thing he seemed to have the energy to do is sleep.
