Spirit: Hello readers and welcome to my new chapter. On this one, we get a few talks and some development from Jason. I'm not gonna have him be a jealous brat for the whole series.
Phoenix: Which I have to agree is a good Idea for that.
Spirit: Also, got a few things to say. For those who read the Maelstrom of Cocoon, expect a chapter coming today or tomorrow. Nearly finish with it, then I will start the chapter on Naruto: SFCW 2 and Harry Potter: the Force Wizard. And do it as a person, with the occasional chapters from Naruto in Sainin High, Riley's Friend (and Crush) is a Wizard, and/or Reading Harry Potter and the Gift of Memories.
Also, I'm going to be making a poll the Walking Dead story I'm planning to make. Two actually, one of the game version and one of the tv version, before merging them into another story. I want to know if you guys would want Rick/OC or Rick/Beth. And don't ask for any other couple, like Richonne or Rick/Andrea, cause I'm going to stick with the two I mentioned. While I think Rick and Michonne would make a good couple, there are a lot of Richonne fanfics out there already. There aren't really that many Rick/Beth fanfictions or Rick/Oc fanfictions. At least, not ones that are at least halfway finished. I'm going to be making the poll soon, so watch out.
And lastly, I'm going to try to find ways to have special moments for Percy/Rachel or Percy/Reyna, but it might be hard. If any of you have ideas for that, I'll gladly accept them. Now, enjoy.

Lunch Break
"There, I'm done reading." Perseus said, pushing the book away from him. "Now somebody get this book before I decide to burn it."
"Hang on." Naruto said, grabbing the book. "We'll eat lunch now and then read the book." Everyone nodded to the book, especially some of the readers' stomachs started growling. With that, everyone went to the hall to get something to eat.
(Lunch Hall)
As usual, everyone is enjoying the meal that was made by Hestia and Rhea. The demigods sometimes couldn't help but wonder that when they get back to camp, will the food taste like cafeteria school food compared to Hestia's and Rhea's cooking.
While everyone is eating, a couple of people left the room. Percy took Annabeth out of the room, ignoring the narrow eyes of Athena. He silently signal Rachel and Reyna to come follow them when it won't look suspicious before the two left. Hazel ask Jason to come with her to talk before those two left, the girl wanting to talk about his behavior. And Thalia wanted to talk to Naruto, about Jason's jealousy problem.
Aphrodite could sense drama coming from all these group, and she was about to go follow any of them before she was stopped by Hephaestus. "Don't Aphrodite." Hephaestus stated calmly. "Let them deal with there problems without any interference from you." Aphrodite was about to protest, but one stern glance from her husband made her reluctantly sit down. Hmmph, party pooper.
(With Percy, Annabeth, Reyna, and Rachel)
Annabeth wonder what Percy is going to tell them, or what he's planning. He's has that mischievous smile on his face that made her shiver in fear and something else that she will not speak of. After a few minutes, they stopped at the Olympian garden, waiting for Rachel and Reyna.
"So Percy, what do you want to tell us?" Annabeth asked, a bit curious. Percy just smiles again before making a zip and lock motion on his lip.
"Let's wait for Rachel and Reyna to get here." Percy said, but he should've known wasn't about to give up. So Annabeth spent the next few minutes trying to coax at least a hint out of him, with no success. A few more minutes later, Reyna and Rachel was met with Annabeth threatening Percy with her knife.
Rachel raise her eyebrow at that. It has been a while since Annabeth threaten Percy like that. "Did we miss something?" Annabeth turn to them with a bit of surprise before putting up her knife while Percy smile again.
"Just Annabeth trying to get me to talk before you guys showed up." Percy responded, causing Annabeth to glower at him.
"Are you going to tell us now, Seaweed Brain?"
Percy merely gives off his smile, causing Annabeth to nearly get her knife out while Rachel and Reyna shivered at the smile. Before anyone could say anything or Annabeth get her knife out, everyone heard whispers behind Rachel and Reyna.
"I think it would be better-"
"-if we were to show you."
"Aaah!" Rachel and Reyna screamed, the two of jumping back and Reyna taking out her sword. What they saw cause their eyes to widen in shock, along with Annabeth.
There are two Percy's, both of them looking exactly identical to the original.
"P-P-Percy, and…." Annabeth stuttered, pointing at one and the other. "P-P-Percy. I-wha-ho-"
Percy laugh at how speechless Annabeth seems while Reyna was still frozen and Rachel kept muttering 'This is a dream, this is a dream'. "Say hello to my water clones. Something I learned back when I was training."
Annabeth was a mixture of awe and jealousy. Awe because her boyfriend could make clones out of water. And jealousy because she wanted to have an ability like that. Rachel is thinking several rated M stuff that is not fit for this story. And Reyna is thinking about the advantage of having such an ability, both in the battlefield and in life.
"So why did you show us this ability?" Reyna asked him. The two Percy got to the original's side before he spoke.
"Since I'm dating all three of you now-"
"-I thought it would be good-"
"-to use something like this-"
"-to take all three of you-"
"-at the same time." All three Percy's said, using twin (or triplet, in their case) speak. Annabeth eyes lit up at the smart idea. This could save them from making a schedule.
"That's a good idea Percy." Annabeth said while Rachel is still daydreaming. Then she got her usual curious look when she wants to know something. "So, how did you get this ability?"
"The same way I got my sword." Percy answered, patting the back of his sword. "Naruto may have given me the sword, but the man who made it was Zabuza, the Primordial of Swords and Monsters. He also taught me the water clone jutsu, one of his specialties. It work some work, but I manage to do it. So far, I can only make five of them at once."
Rachel, after getting out of her daydream, asked her question. "Do you they could last long in anything?" Percy cross his arms and thought for a bit.
"If it any fatal wounds or serious injuries, then no." Percy answered. "But otherwise, they could handle most things." Rachel had to keep herself from drooling, her dirty thoughts coming back.
Something told all of them that they are going to like that ability.
(With Jason and Hazel)
"So, you wanted to talk to me Hazel?" Jason said, crossing his arms and leaning on the wall. He have a feeling though of what she want to talk about. The two of them are at the hallway, a few feet away from the dining hall.
Hazel cross her arm and gave him a firm glare. "Yes Jason, I want to talk. I want to know why you have been acting a jerk ever since the beginning."
Jason frowned, but didn't say anything yet. If it was during the Lightning Thief book she confronted him about this, he probably would yelled at her or accuse her of siding with Percy. But ever since this few weeks without Percy hear, he mellowed down. He was merely silent through the whole thing, watching as most of the others were happily talking.
After a minute of silence, Hazel frowned and try speaking again. "Jason, just tell me." Hazel said to him, almost pleadingly. "I want my old friend back."
"You sure it isn't because you want me to stop being a jerk to your new friend?" Jason asked scathingly. Hazel eyes widen at the tone of his voice before narrowing her eyes.
"Is this because you're jealous of Percy? Jealous because of what he did?" Hazel asked. The silence answered her question. "Jason, there is no need to be jealous. Your a strong person on your own, one of the strongest in our camp."
Jason glare at the floor bitterly. "I betting Percy stole that title when he was there." Before Hazel could say anything, Jason continued. "You saw how powerful he is Hazel, in the both and with your own eyes. He wounded a god when he was twelve, an Olympian at that, and that was just the first book out of five. It was only a week he was at Camp Jupiter and he manage to take my praetorship at that time. And do you know the worst part? I can't really hate him anymore, not after reading his thoughts."
Jason smile, but it was bitter. "The guy has nearly no flaws. He is braver than anyone at camp, both greek and roman; he showed more skilled at just age twelve with barely any training while I honed my skills for years; he is too damn selfless as well as loyal; he is laid back compared to others at Camp Jupiter; and he also modest, not even a bit of arrogance in his bones after he defeated Ares."
He was almost finished with his rant. "I am so damn jealous that there is no flaws in him, except his anger, but that is when he friends are insulted or in danger. Jealous that he is got so many people following him without question while everyone else avoids me. Jealous of his power. Just, fucking, jealous!" He nearly yelled the last part, but manage to control himself. Ah the while, Hazel merely listen to what he said.
She sighed. "Jason, it's your fault everyone avoiding you. And you are strong, just in your own way." Jason merely snorted at that, making Hazel glare at him. "And you're a good person, at least use to be. You had most of the qualities Percy has, but your jealousy and pride is blinding you to see that. You need to stop this jealousy, otherwise, everyone is just going to hate you." She didn't give him the chance to say anything, just walk back to the dining hall with her arms cross. Leaving Jason to think about what she said.
(Thalia and Naruto)
Edited
Naruto and Thalia walk to another part of Olympus, where the two could talk. After they are in a distance where no one could eavesdrop, Thalia started speaking. "Okay, do you know why my brother is acting like this? Why is he acting the one thing the hunters hates? I don't remember Jason acting like that when we met." It's been bugging her ever since the Lightning Thief book. She doesn't hate Jason, she couldn't hate him, but she cannot stand the way he is acting.
Naruto put his chin in thought. "I have a theory, but I'm not sure if you're going to like it."
"I think I can handle it." Thalia said, crossing her arm. "Something is wrong and I want to what." Naruto sighed. Here we go.
"Well, I found out two of Jason's fatal flaws." Naruto said. "One of them is hubris. It's not surprising, since he's from the one of the most prideful gods. Er, no offense to you." Thalia snorted at that.
"I'm not really that mad that you insulted him. I wasn't raised by him and he didn't visit once, so I don't have that close of a relationship." Thalia said. She then got back to the topic at hand. "Anyways, continue."
Naruto nodded in thanks. "And the next one, the one I think is causing his personality change, is jealousy. He's jealous of Percy and his accomplishment, probably of Percy's personality as well. A mixture of pride and jealousy could change anyone."
Thalia look down and clench her fist. Her brother is acting a jerk, like an arrogant pig, all because of….jealousy?! "Grr, why are boys so stupid?" Thalia muttered to herself. She then realize that she just said that to a god and was about to apologize when Naruto laugh.
"Don't worry Thalia, I'm not going to smite for making a true comment about my gender." Naruto assured, getting the girl to sigh in relief. He then look at her seriously. "You should find a time to talk to Jason, preferably at the next break. He needs to get out of this jealousy act before it consumes him. And so far, Hazel did a good job in doing that." Thalia eyes widen at that.
"How did you-"
"I have shadow clones that gives me memories back when they poof out." Naruto responded before she could finish. "I have them everywhere to keep an eye on everyone." Thalia made an 'oh' sound and expression.
"So, let's go back to the dining hall shall we? I have ramen that is calling out for me."
(Olympian Hall)
Soon, everyone was finished with their lunch and a few of them in their own thoughts. Thalia is thinking about what Naruto told her while Jason is thinking about what Hazel told him. But they didn't dwell on it as they got back in the throne room with Naruto raising the book up.
"So, who is going to read next?"
"I will." Greek Jason said, catching the book that was thrown. He open to the fourth chapter and started reading. "Chapter 4: Tysons Play with Fire…."
And that's the end. I hope you guys like this chapter. Again, be sure to look out for my Walking Dead poll. And also, for those who read Naruto: SFCW 2 and looked at the poll, well, the voting is finished. I'll give you the votes in the next chapter. Review, favorite, and follow and we will see you guys later.
