Piper:
Piper didn't know who Grover was but he seemed important to Percy and Annabeth. As she watched Percy and Annabeth speed of with Jason, Hazel, and Leo. She turned to Frank and was about to suggest a trip to the kitchen when a screeching sound invaded her ears.
"Harpies!" Frank shouted.
Piper grabbed Katoptris and ran towards the flick of birds ladies. Frank whipped out his bow and arrow and took down one of the harpies in two seconds flat. One down, three to go. Piper ran towards one and narrowly avoided a swiped of their claw. She stabbed the harpie and watched as it turned to golden dust. Frank had taken down another one, but he had run out of arrows. Piper surged forward and swiped at the last monster. The harpie managed to dodge her knife and knock Piper down with one of her wings. Piper kicked up and the harpie fell back. Frank was standing close and sent an arrow flying. He picked another one up of the deck and shot it towards the harpie. It was fatal and the harpie burst into golden powder as the arrow pierced her skin.
Panting Piper and Frank lay on the deck and stared up at the sky. It was a bright cerulean blue and had not a cloud in the sky. The sun beat down and it felt like they were in the desert.
Piper thought about Jason and his plea. He wanted her to forgive him. She knew she was being stupid and selfish but Piper was under alot of stress. She had made her decision to try and make her relationship with Jason work. He just had to come back from Acresia all in one piece first.
They lay there staring at the sky for what felt like 10 mins when Piper suggested they get some lunch. Frank sat at the table as Piper made them some sandwiches. She sat down next to the son of Mars and they ate in silence. She was putting her plate away when she heard her name being called.
Piper and Frank burst out onto the deck and saw The rest of the seven and who she assumed was the mysterious Grover that Percy had made auch a big deal about. Piper hugged Jason and Frank hugged Hazel. At first Jason was too surprised to move but then he leant into the hug. Percy cleared his throat and we all turned to Percy, Annabeth, and Grover. The trio were all smiling and they looked so happy. Piper missed seeing Percy and Annabeth like this. She looked at the couple and noticed that both of them had pieces of their hair turning grey.
"Um Percy, Annabeth your hair is turning grey," Piper decided to mention to the team of two.
Annabeth and Percy turned to look at each other and when they saw what Piper was talking about they started laughing. Grover soon joined in and the rest of the seven were just staring at the trio.
"It came back!" Grover said after wiping tears from his eyes.
"I know, I was thinking about it a couple days ago and my wish came true," Percy replied with a smile on his face.
"You're glad that you have grey hair," Leo said with a look of confusion on his face.
"It's a long story but anyways. Meet Grover, my best friend and favourite satyr," Percy clapped his hand on Grover's back as he looked at Piper and Frank.
"Hi, I'm Piper," she smiled and he smiled back.
"Frank," Frank said still holding Hazel's hand.
Grover nodded and Jason clapped his hands together.
"So, now that we have saved the famous Grover. Let's continue our journey to Athens," Jason said as he eyed the satyr, Percy and Annabeth.
Percy shot him a dangerous look and Jason cowered slightly. He composed himself. "Let's go to the kitchen guys," he said to Grover and Annabeth.
They disappeared into the depths of the Argo II and Piper was left with Jason, Hazel, Frank and Leo. Hazel and Frank smiled sympathetically at Piper then followed Percy and Annabeth to the kitchen. Leo was staring out at the horizon like he always has since he disappeared. Piper was concerned for her friend.
Leo seemed to notice the situation and scurried off. Probably to go work in the engine room. Piper turned towards Jason. He was looking up at the sky.
"Jason," She said gently. "What's up with you." He turned towards her.
"When Percy and Annabeth were gone I took care of the crew and I lead them when they were out if motivation. Then suddenly when Percy and Annabeth get back they become the leaders. I mean they wont even talk about themselves and we barely know them but everyone looks to them when we are in trouble. No one even thinks of me as the leader anymore. Then, Percy comes out and says we need to go save a goat and everyone doesn't even second guess that it is a good idea. Saving the world from Gaia is more important then saving a goat who isn't going to help us in anyway." He finished his monologue and Piper didn't know what to say.
"Look, Jason," She paused. "Everyone still looks up to you but Percy and Annabeth have been leaders longer and are older, dont take it the wrong way Jason everyone still thinks you're a hero." Piper finished and Jason sighed.
"What did I do to deserve a girl like you," Piper smiled.
"Good question," she replied playfully berfore planting a kiss on his lips.
"Let's go eat," Jason said. As they walked towards the kitchen, Piper couldn't help but say.
"You're the best boyfriend," that brought a smile to his lips.
"And you're the best girlfriend, Pipes" She smile and he wrapped an arm around her shoulder. Gods, she loved him.
:D
