satvidesai: I thought of it more as a dream connection, they were speaking through a dream, Percy, unknowingly, contacted Piper through a dream. Like you know how in The Son of Neptune, When Percy contacted Tyson through a dream but Tyson was awake? Kinda like that except this time Percy was awake and Polybotes saw that they were talking. I don't really know how to explain it. Lets just say they made a connection K? Also I'm not really a Perciper fan.
Annabeth
I woke up to a loud knocking on my door. "Annabeth get out here!"
"Ugh Piper its like-" "Oh wake up ya big baby, its only six am!"
"Ugh" I covered my head with my pillow.
"Annabeth get up!" "Fine!"
Satisfied, she left to wake up everyone else.
What is up with her today? She's been acting so, weird.
Slowly I got up to get dressed. In the background I heard Piper waking up the others. Like me everyone started groaning and complaining, then Piper would yell at them.
We all met up in the dining hall. I grabbed a bagel and sat down at the head of the table. Eventually the room filled up.
I couldn't help but notice that the chair to the left of me was empty. My eyes started to water but I refused to cry again.
"Piper! It's so early!"
"Quit your whining Leo! Or I'll wake you up at one am every day!"
Hehe, that shut him up.
"So, what's up?"
"It's Percy"
I nearly choked on my bagel. The rest were as shocked as me.
"Well don't just sit there spit it out!"
"I-I had a dream last night and somehow we made a connection, I was able to see him."
"What happened? Is he hurt? Don't tell me he got hurt! Piper Mclean you tell me what happened right now." I yelled out.
"Annabeth calm yourself!"
"Oh go repair something Leo!"
"Ok." He got up
"Leo sit back down!" Piper ordered
"Ok"
"Piper do we need him?" I asked
She sighed, "Sadly yes, he needs to hear this too, and I only want to say this once."
"Yay I'm wanted!"
"Shut up Leo" The crew yelled out in unison
"Ok"
"I swear if you say 'ok' one more time you're gonna get it!" Frank growled
"Ok"
"That's it he's dead!" Frank rose out of his seat to pummel Leo
"Frank sit down!" Piper yelled
"Fine" He grumbled, "But if he does it again-" "Then we won't stop you. Leo come out from behind Jason."
"Oo-" Leo glanced at Frank who was glaring knifes at Leo, "I mean alright."
I nodded at Piper, "Go ahead"
She took a breath, "Last night I somehow made a connection with Percy, I'm not exactly sure how but Percy seemed fully aware that I was there, almost like he could see me, which he might have. I'm not sure who made the connection, I think it was Percy because it interrupted one of my nightmares." She glanced up to look at everyone, "He seemed like he was in extreme pain"
I made a small whimpering sound when she said that, but not loud enough to draw Piper's attention.
"He wasn't able to talk, only make small gestures." She continued
"Do you think he lost the ability to talk?" Frank asked
"No, it was more like he couldn't talk, like he should be able to but it was to hard and exhausting for him." Piper answered
"Since when is talking exhausting?" Was Leo's snarky reply.
"Since going through immense pain Leo!" Piper exclaimed
Ha, take that repair boy! Now shut it
Leo didn't talk after that, well at least he didn't talk for the next five minutes... ok that's an exaggeration, the next three minutes. OK FINE! He didn't even last thirty seconds
"But we don't know that Percy is in pain?" Leo asked stupidly
"Leo" He turned to look at me
"Yes, Princess?"
Oh he did NOT just do that, tell me he did not just do that. Did he do that? I think he did. He's so dead
I looked at Piper, who was currently gaping at Leo at the moment, which confirmed my question.
He DID do that
I casually picked up my knife and twirled it in my hand, making sure I had the fire-user's attention, "Leo, we are quite sure Percy is in pain right now, and the more you stall the longer he will be in that pain. Meaning that you are the cause of that pain, so if Percy dies I will blame it on you. And then I will KILL you. I hope we understand each other?" I spoke in a deadly calm voice.
"Oh yeah I understand, I understand completely!" He said as soon as I finished, and looked away.
"Oh and Leo?" He turned to face me, panic in his eyes, "Yeah?"
"Don't you EVER call me princess, or the consequences will be-" I looked at him straight in the eye, "SEVERE. Are we clear?"
Leo's head was bobbing up and down so fast I thought it would fall off, "Good, now Piper please continue."
Piper had stopped talking to let me threat Leo. In fact, I looked around, everyone was currently staring at me, except Leo whose eyes were anywhere near me.
"HA! IN YOUR FACE VALDEZ!" Frank yelled out
Ah come on Zhang, we might've had a little peace and quiet! Now Leo's gonna start again and it will be your fault, im gonna kill you too.
I glared at Zhang and waited for Leo to say something. Strangely there was no sound. No one made a peep. I looked around and I realized that everyone was waiting for Leo to say something, but he was to busy making something out of pipe cleaners. Eventually he noticed how quiet it was and looked up. He stared at everyone and we stared right back.
"Sorry did I miss something?" As soon as he said it I knew that I couldn't let anyone respond in a way that would make Leo start again. So I was the first to speak, "Um well we were about to let Piper talk until you stopped paying attention!" Leo gulped, He opened his mouth to say something but I cut him short, "Save it Valdez! Just pay attention!" Leo nodded at looked at Piper.
I turned to Piper and gestured for her to go on.
"Ok, well when I had seen Percy, the first thing I said was that we were coming to save him, immediately he shook his head. I kept telling him that we would come and rescue him and I got the same response. I was about to ask him why when Polybotes came in. Then the connection broke. I don't know how but Polybotes saw us talking. And just before the connection was cut, I heard screaming."
I sucked in my breath
"But there's more, this is why Leo needed to hear this, I think we've been tricked, because well the location of Percy, changed" Everyone gasped
"He's further away now and it will take longer to get to him"
"Piper where is he?"
Polybotes (yes I know but this will be short and its kinda important to the story)
HAHA those foolish demigods, did they really think we didn't plan this out? Of course we weren't in Athens! That's way to close to where Mother Gaea is rising. What are we stupid?!
Ha, we even fooled that Percy Jackson, he thinks that we will use his power, but that of course isn't true! We don't even know if its possible.
The plan was all thought out before we were out of Tartarus. Just another layer of Mother's plans.
They won't realize until too late. But not the location just changed, the plans for Percy had also changed.
Actually they never changed, it was the plan all along.
Did Percy really think that we didn't know he was watching us? Of course we knew, it was all an act! Just part of the plan. And the plan has yet to be fulfilled. Phase One has been completed! Now for Phase Two!
Just part of the plan.
