Once both me and Damian calmed down, Percy and Annabeth asked what happened. We all sat at the kitchen table and started to explain.

"After Hera left," I said, "Aphrodite showed up, she told me that she also liked Jamie better, then she lifted her chin like the snotty Immortal she is. So I took that chance to grab a flower pot and throw it at her."

"Did you hit her?" Percy asked, maybe a little too excitedly.

"Unfortunately no, she disappeared before it hit her."

"Aw."

"Anyway," Damian continued, "afterwards she yells up at the sky at Zeus and it starts to pour. She asked if that was all he got and it was a torrential downpour out there."

"I'm pretty sure you're not using 'torrential downpour' in context right," I said.

"I don't care."

"So yeah, then we just walked around in the rain."

"Well, fun adventure you had, but you should probably change out of your wet clothes," Annabeth suggested.

"Good idea," I laughed, "I'm starting to get cold."

Once out of my wet clothes and into fresh ones, I walked into the kitchen to see Calypso and Annabeth making lunch.

"It's lunch time already?" I asked as I sat down on a stool.

"Yeah, you guys were out in the rain for at least four hours," Annabeth said as she put a pizza in the oven.

"Homemade pizza is always the best," I noted.

"Yeah!" Percy yelled from the living room.

"What's Percy yelling about?" Damian asked as he sat down next to me.

"Oh just that homemade pizza is really good," I said, "As long as you cook it right. My father once made homemade pizza then decided to try and grill it on the grill outside. He ended up burning the entire thing until it was black, still made us eat it too."

"That's horrible," Calypso said.

I just shrugged. "Not the worst meal I've had."

"Well after this meal, we're going to go out to the city and tell everyone you're alive," Hazel said as she walked into the kitchen.

"Oh hey, I didn't even know you were here," I said.

"Yeah, I decided to come check on things, Frank couldn't come but he says hi," she explained.

"Do you want to stay for some pizza?" Annabeth asked Hazel.

"I can't, I have to get back to help Frank. Seriously, it's been what? Almost ten years I've been a praetor and I still don't see how Reyna did it."

"Reyna was her own type of breed," Percy said as he walked over to Annabeth and put his arm around her.

"You got that right," Hazel said, "Well, I'll see you later." Hazel waved us goodbye then walked out towards the front door.

"Wait, so when did she and Frank get married?" I asked.

"Ok they haven't gotten married yet, they got engaged last year but with being the praetors and everything that has been going on, they don't have time," Annabeth explained.

Suddenly the kitchen timer went off with a ding. "Who wants pizza!" Calypso yelled.
