Jason Grace couldn't believe that Leo would do that. After all they had been through how could Leo turn on them?

Once again the cannons from the Argo II shot at Camp Jupiter, tearing through buildings and destroying the streets.

Fire raced through the only home Jason had ever known. He suddenly felt as if he had to protect his camp and his fellow Romans at all costs. He didn't like that he couldn't see Reyna anywhere, but he had to hope that she was okay.

Piper stood behind him and clutched his arm. Jason's head pounded. Romans were beginning to turn towards him as if he'd had something to do with Leo's outburst.

"What are we going to do?" Piper whispered. She sounded genuinely scared.

Jason wasn't sure how to act around Piper. The poor girl had had her memories tampered with, she'd been made to think that she was Jason's girlfriend and that they were madly in love. And before Jason's memory had returned, he'd almost believed it himself. Piper was beautiful, she was sweet and unnervingly good with a weapon.

But she wasn't Reyna. Jason had grown up with Reyna. He knew how to read her almost expressionless face, he was one of the few people that could see through her mask and knew what she really meant when she said "I'm fine." Jason didn't want to hurt Piper but he definitely didn't want to hurt Reyna.

Jason's thoughts were interrupted by Piper shoving him out of the way of a chair that otherwise would have hit him in the head.

Jason saw Percy Jackson not too far away, keeping the Romans at bay with the water from a fountain. He also saw the angry Romans coming at him and Piper, dangerous projectiles in their hands.

Piper was attempting to charm speak them. "Please put down the bricks and the chairs, this is all a misunderstanding." But her voice was so shaky that it barely did anything.

Then from out of the corner of Jason's eye he saw two girls. Annabeth and Reyna were running towards them. Reyna's eyes were so stormy even Jason was taken aback.

"Romans, stop! I'm on your side!" Jason called to the angry mob surrounding him. They didn't listen.

A memory flickered through Jason's mind in the midst of all the turmoil. Something Reyna had once told him during a game of capture the flag. "We Romans never hide, even if it means putting ourselves in danger we face trouble and fight it, we don't run."

So Jason raised his hands and mustered up all the power he could. He shot lightning into the sky, diverting the Roman's attention from himself to the storm above.

The storm raged fiercely, lightning crackling when anyone went near Jason and Piper.

Jason saw Percy and Annabeth climb the ladder to the Argo II. He saw Hazel ride off on a crazily fast horse. All the while his head spun faster and the lightning grew weaker, allowing the Romans to get too close. A brick narrowly missed Jason's head.

Just as Jason was about to pass out from all the energy he'd used to make the storm, a dragon flew right at him. Piper cried out as the dragon grabbed both of them in it's claws and flew off towards the Argo II.

Jason glanced behind him to see Reyna, growing smaller as they flew higher. She looked hurt, angry, shocked and sad all at once. Jason longed to get away from the dragon,fly down to her, and take her in his arms. Only the dragon was strong and he was weak from the storm he'd made.

He didn't want it to end like this. He'd planned it all. The Romans were going to work with the Greeks, Jason and Reyna would lead them. He would be with Reyna and they would never have to be separated again.

But Jason Grace knew that was too much to hope for. He was a demigod, they weren't supposed to get happy endings.
