{ Piper P.O.V }
Ok, let me get things perfectly and a hundred percent straight. Festus died again ( yes, Khione killed it before ), and Leo's crying all over it? Ok, I know repair boy is annoying, but something feels, empty. I can't believe I'm saying this, but we all know that Leo has to be happy or camps gonna fall apart. Especially poor Harley and Nyssa, his siblings from Hephaestus cabin.
{ During Lunch }
Leo wasn't at the mess hall, and Chiron probably noticed me looking, but he gave me a stare that said Don't worry, He needs his space I noticed Jason talking with Percy and Annabeth. Percy looked serious and Annabeth gasped so many times, I even started to roll my eyes.
Then, when Jason was done, I pulled him by the shirt and started lecturing him.
"Jason" I didn't use charmspeak, because, that would make things worse, and Leo probably didn't need the word "worse" in his head right now. "I don't want to make you feel bad, but why are you spending your free time telling people, the tale of Leo's heartbreak, instead of actually finding out if your best friend killed himself" Jason looked surprised.
"Pipes, I didn't know you could make me want to do something like that even if you don't use charmspeak" Jason said with his eyes bulged open.
"How can you tell?" I asked. "Isn't the point for you not to tell when your getting charmspeaked?"
"Yes, but, when you charmspeak someone, you can see yourself doing things" Jason leaned closer to me. "I don't see myself doing anything. yet"
"Well, Leo's not in the mess hall, so I suggest you find him, and not in bunker nine, he strictly protects the circuit, and the password is not 12345" Jason raised an eyebrow.
Annabeth and Percy walked over to the Aphrodite table after lunch.
"Ladies and Gentlemen" Percy tried to put an accent in his voice. "We just found the answer to all of your problems". Instantly after Percy said that, Nico rushed in.
"We've got a problem" He said gasping for air. "Leo, he's so pale- he" Ok, I may have done something pretty bad but it was for Leo.
"NICO, WHERE IS HE AND WHAT DID HE SAY!" I put full power charmspeak and shook Nico as hard as I could. He took a deep breath
"Leo is by the canoeing lake but when I saw him he was sitting there and his face was so white and he started playing with the water and drawing pictures in the sand but I realized what he was drawing was a blueprint of a robot and I asked him if he needed help but then he started pacing and said I need to fix Festus then he face planted into the sand" Nico panted hard after his speech.
"Robot? wait what?" Percy asked cluelessly. I rolled my eyes.
"Annabeth, aren't you an architect?" I asked her. "Doesn't that gave you some basic knowledge on building, and blueprints, stuff like that?" Annabeth thought for a moment, but she grimaced.
"I can design things blueprints and such" Annabeth started. "But-" Theres the but, theres always a catch to things. Can't the fates offer something for free? "I don't know how to build the design, like for olympus, the Gods build it, not me".
"Does anyone know how to access bunker 9 without Leo" I asked them. Everyone gave me the what are you thinking look. I knew for sure that Leo had blueprint paper, and the circuit of Festus. If I knew anything about electronics ( which I don't know, because demigods don't usually phones or stuff like that ) it's that you need a circuit to operate a robot. I learn to much from Leo.
"Guys I know how to fix Leo" I said. "Nico, can you shadow travel five people?" I asked him. "Bunker 9 please"
"I've shadow traveled the Athena parthenos people before, so this shouldn't be that hard". The son of Hades held closed his eyes as we all held hands. Then the shadows swallowed us.
