Aphrodite batted her eyelashes at Chiron.
"Please move Chiron" She said sweetly. Charm speaking.
He started to move but then I shouted.
"No! Chiron, stay right there" I put all my power into it and he stopped. He looked at me; looking slightly alarmed and probably wondering why I can charm speak.
"Move Chiron"
"Stay Chiron"
"Move Chiron"
"Stay Chiron"
"Move Chiron"
"Stay-" I looked over his huge horse body and a large heel came flying at me.
I didn't know what to do so I used an old demigod move.
I commando jumped out the way and caught the heel.
"Perseus if you do not give me my heels right now I swear" She growled.
"What?" I grinned and waved it tauntingly.
She opened her mouth to answer but Ares interrupted her.
"She`ll set me on you" He said boldly.
I pointed the heel at him, smirked and said.
"Sorry to break it to you mate but I beat you when I was twelve"
He growled and stepped forward angrily.
"You`ll regret the day you was born, punk"
I raised an eyebrow at him, close to laughter.
"That all you got?" I asked.
"OK, ARES, APHRODITE YOU HAVE PLENTY OF TIME TO BEAT PERCY UP LATER. NOW WE HAVE OUR DEMI-GOD HEROS TO ATTEND TO"
Zeus voice boomed.
We all paused and nodded sadly.
Damn, I was really looking forward to that fight…
I made a `I've got my eyes on you` signal to Ares and then turned back to the campers with a sheepish smile. They were so silent I swear none of them were breathing. Ok then…
I lifted a hand in a small wave.
I heard a few whispers like; "His eyes… what happened?" and "Well, he's still an idiot"
"Uh… hi"I said then awkwardly joined my father at his side, throwing Aphrodite the heel as I went.
He gave me a little pat on the back then stood up straight and tall. I crossed my arms and let my eyes skim around the large crowd of half-bloods.
Standing next to Chiron was Annabeth, Grover and Nico. Annabeth had her hands over her mouth, unshed tears in her eyes. Her eyes never left my face. Grover has staring, mouth agape. Juniper was by his side smiling softly at me and holding his hand. With her free hand she waved slightly as if we were seeing each other at the campfire Nico was smirking at me and had pride and sadness in his eyes. I waved at them and grinned. I was so glad to be back.
Then I saw Rachel standing next to Annabeth and my eyes widened a bit.
Apollo came up behind me along with Hermes and pulled me over to stand by their spot with Artmis and Athena. The campers watched the whole time. Artimis nodded at me approvingly for bugging Ares and Aphrodite, sending me a message mentally that Thalia wanted to see me. I grinned and thanked her silently. She watched me with calculating silver eyes then turned away to face the campers. The campers stared at us like we just shouted out we loved each other… Which, may I add we didn't and never will… Uh, hello? Maiden goddess. Duh.
Apollo whispered to me.
"Hey Percy, I see you have seen my lovely new oracle"
I frowned at him like a little kid being told Santa's not real.
"Who's that?" I asked. He grinned and pointed at Rachel. My eyes widened and I swear I would've fainted if I could.
"No way!" I exclaimed earning me a despising look from Zeus. I smiled sheepishly. Whoops.
Note to self: Don't annoy Zeus… good luck with that one Percy.
I think I've already blown it, damn I cant go a minute without getting into trouble. That really sucks.
