This is the last chapter of Memory Lane: Percy Jackson Style *SOB*! I'd like to thank all of the people that reviewed, put as favorite story/author, or put as a story alert!

Chapter 5: Pictures
Piper POV
After lunch I meet up with Annabeth, with a box in her hand, Thalia, and Rachel. We walked onto the sky deck finding the boys waiting, that's was surprising.
"Finally", Leo grumbled, I think Nico was starting to rub off on him.
"Whatever Valdez, just be glad we came", Thalia said.
"OK, moving on, did you bring the pictures?" Grover asked Annabeth. Thalia, Rachel, and Annabeth rolled their eyes as Annabeth held up her box of pictures. Everyone sat down around Annabeth while she trifled through the box to find the picture she was looking for.
"AHH…here it is!" Annabeth exclaimed. She held out a picture with a boy with black hair, much like Thalia and Nico's, and sea green eyes in the middle of Annabeth and Grover with his arms draped across their shoulders grinning widely.
"I'm guessing you guys can tell which one is Percy?" Annabeth asked. Jason, Leo, and I nodded, before she continued, "That was after our first quest to get Zeus's master bolt". She looked through the box again until she found what she was looking for. She showed us a picture of Percy, Annabeth, and a big guy with one eye that was brown.
"That's Percy brother, Tyson, he's a Cyclops", Annabeth said pointing at the guy with the one eye.
"Hey Annabeth, I didn't know you still had this picture", Thalia said holding up a picture with Thalia and Percy in the middle with Grover and Annabeth on either side of them they were standing in front of Thalia's Pine Tree with the Golden Fleece hung across it
"Well, yeah I kept it, that was right after our 2nd quest and you had just got untreeified", Annabeth stated. When Annabeth said that, Grover looked at the picture and laughed.
"I remember that day, Percy didn't want to stand next to Thalia he was afraid that she would punch him again", Grover said. We all looked at Thalia, but she just shrugged and laughed to herself.
"Hey Annabeth who are they?" Jason asked as he came over with a picture of Percy and Grover standing next to Thalia who was standing next to two girls, one of them had the silver tiara that Thalia wore so I assumed that, that was Zoë Nightshade, the other girl looked exactly like Nico, and I guessed that, that was Bianca di Angelo.
"Well the one that looks like Nico is his sister and the other girl is Zoë Nightshade, I think that was before their quest to save Artemis." Annabeth said. At hearing his sister's name Nico came over to look at the picture, he smiled slightly at it.
"Hey guys, look at this one!" Grover yelled. We all walked over to him to look at the picture he was holding. It was a group picture of Percy, Annabeth, Tyson, Nico, and Rachel; they were all laughing at something and smiling at the camera.
"I remember that one, that was right after the Battle of the Labyrinth and after our 4th quest!" Annabeth exclaimed. When I looked at Annabeth I saw an emotion on her face that shocked me, it was happiness, I would have thought she would have been in the mood she was when in when we were on the beach and I asked her to tell me about Percy, sad and distant, but I think that her talking about Percy has helped her. All of a sudden we heard Nico trying not to laugh and not succeeding. We all went over to Nico to see what he was laughing at and when we did we fell over laughing, all of us, it was a picture of Clarisse soaking wet and toilet water being shot at her and you could see Percy sitting on the bathroom floor in a circle of dryness while everything else was soaking wet.
"I remember that, I was showing Percy around when Clarisse came up and took Percy to the bathroom, she always liked to dunk newbies head's in the toilet, and she tried to do that to Percy, his head was a foot away from the toilet when the toilet water shot out and flooded the bathroom and I was in there." Annabeth told us that just made me laugh even harder. I was suddenly glad that everyone else was on the left wing of the ship for training, so they didn't see us rolling on the floor laughing looking like idiots.
After we all calmed down Annabeth said," Hey Grover, do you remember this?" , she held up a picture with Grover passed out and Percy trying to pull him up the hill looking tired while holding a horn in his hand, when Grover saw the picture he blushed.
"What happened to them?" Leo asked.
"Ohhh…that was after Percy's fight with the Minotaur and his mom was taken captive, me and Chiron were sitting on the porch when we saw him come up, I didn't know that there was a picture of that, the Stolls probably took that picture that night", Annabeth said.
"Hey Annabeth, when was this one taken?" Thalia asked, holding up a picture of Percy walking up on the beach at Camp Half-Blood looking sad. Before Annabeth could reply to her questions the lunch bell rung.
After lunch we meet up on the sky deck again.
"To answer your question Thalia that picture was after Benkendorf died and he came back to Camp Half-Blood", Annabeth stated. We spent the rest of the day looking at pictures. Some were happy, sad, cute, funny, and others were embarrassing. It was getting very late and by that time the rest of us were just about to go to bed but that was until Rachel found a batch of pictures that we didn't see. On the top was a picture of Percy, Tyson, Nico, a man with salt-pepper hair, and a woman with brown hair and she looked welcoming. Then, Nico exclaimed, "I remember that picture that was for Percy's 15th birthday right before the Titan War. That's Percy's mom, Sally Jackson Blofis," pointing to the woman," and that is his step-father Paul Blofis", pointing to the guy. Rachel, who was holding the pictures, moved to the next one to find Percy running out of a building called 'Goode High school' with Rachel following close behind.
"That's when I met him for the second time, there was Empousa in the building and Percy couldn't see them and I could since I could see through the mist. He also told me about the mythological world." Rachel said, looking at the picture with amused eyes. The next picture she shifted to was quite amusing, it showed a soaking wet Thalia with a lightning bolt behind her and Percy standing in front of the creek, in the woods of Camp Half-Blood, with a wave behind him, his clothes shredded like he got hit with one of Thalia's lightning bolt (which he probably did), looking like it was getting to be hurled at Thalia. Everyone looked at Thalia for and explanation; she had an amused expression on her face when she saw the picture.
"That was taken when we were playing Capture the Flag after our quest and Percy made us lose. Let's just say that I got a little mad", she said.
"Gosh, did you guys need a restraining order?" Leo asked playfully, but that only got him a punch in the gut from Thalia while everybody else laughed. The next picture was Annabeth, Percy, Festus, a girl with long black hair and brown eyes, and an African American guy; you could tell that he was a Hephaestus child because he had biceps like he worked in the forges all the time they were all crowded around Festus not even noticing that someone was taking a picture of them.
"That is Silena Beauregard she was the Counselor for the Aphrodite cabin before she died," Annabeth pointed to the girl," and that is her boyfriend Charles Benkendorf , he was the Counselor for the Hephaestus cabin before he died.", Annabeth said while she pointed to the guy.
"Guys, you have got to see this picture!", Nico yelled while laughing, he had taken the pictures out of Rachel's hands and was looking at a picture with a blushing Percy and a blushing Annabeth holding hands on the campers shoulders. When the rest of us saw the picture we all looked at Annabeth, who was a bright red, and started laughing.
"I'm curious why were you guys on their shoulders?" Jason asked gesturing to the picture.
"It was Percy's birthday and I bought him a cupcake and we started talking, I knew he was trying to tell me how he felt, so after him struggling to say the right words and me laughing at him I put my arms around his neck and kissed him, but we were interrupted by Clarisse and some of the other campers and they dunked us in the lake", Annabeth said, when she finished the story she blushed even more. The next picture mirrored her story; it was Percy and Annabeth coming up from the water kissing. When Annabeth saw the picture she blushed even darker and said," I think were done with the pictures!"
After we put the pictures up, we were about to go our separate ways, but the Stolls came up and Travis (I think) said," There you guys are we were looking all over for you guys, Chiron wants all of us in the command center, now!", With some confused looks thrown at one another we followed the Stoll brothers to the command center.
When we got there the rest of the Consolers where there, except for Chiron, so we took our seats to wait for him. While we waited I wondered if Percy would remember Annabeth or what Annabeth would do when she saw Percy. Finally, after 5 minutes of waiting Chiron, he sat down and said," Sorry for keeping you waiting, but I was in the Navigation room checking to see where we were". He didn't look happy about where we were so I asked,
"Where are we?"
"The Roman Camp, my dear child, we have arrived at the Roman Camp…"
