FRANK POV:

We were all stunned with regret when realising Sophia hadn't survived the FIRST battle. We sat in a cramped circle with a tiny campfire in the middle. Even though it had been a day ago now, I was still pumped with adrenaline as I wasn't called a hero that often! It had gotten them to respect my ability and not use me as their GPS. I looked around at the state of my fellow campers who were all asleep. Dakota had a scratch on his forehead and a bruised nose but other wise okay. Reyna looked decent enough except for the cut on her ear, Adam was the worst with a serious of deep slashes around his nose and top lip, Clarisse had no injury but being a daughter of Ares she can recover from battle injuries speedily. Percy was sitting up awake, reading my expression he walked up, checked on Annie, kissed her cheek; fist bumped me and sat next to me all in one immortal motion. He's so cool! Looking at Annabeth's curly hair I felt immense sadness as I thought of Hazel. I really missed my fiancé and I know Percy did too because us three were very close friends, I remembered the Thanatos quest. Glancing sheepishly at Percy I see him fall asleep. His formerly raven-like hair was now cut extremely short and reminded me of Leo. Surprisingly, I find myself missing him too! I didn't miss the constant flirting with Hazel but his personality was the only thing that stopped the Argo II crew members from killing each other at times. Whether Percy and Jason had a power struggle or I said something clumsy, or Annabeth said something she shouldn't have, Team Leo was always there to save the day! I undoubtedly understand why Valdez went on his trip to find Calypso as I would do the same as Hazel. So, I fell asleep feeling happy thoughts even though the daunting setting…

DAKOTA POV:

I was the first to wake. Well, we didn't know whether it was morning or night but I was the first to stop sleeping. Slinging my trusty spear over my back, I walked around the circle waking everyone up one at a time. Adam got up, then Reyna, then the MAGNIFICENT Percy Jackson, Annabeth, Frank was weirdly up anyway and they I peered down at my girlfriend Clarisse she looked cute when she slept, not intimidating at all. I felt a pain at the back of my leg which I presumed was from Ares and I performed an obscene gesture to the skies making the campers laugh and also waking Clarisse up and I smiled at her. Just then, a sudden roar snapped me out of my daze.

ANNABETH POV:

Whirling around, I caught my breath. Colbane Jaguars! I read about them in a mythology book. (AN: No you didn't I made them up! MWAHAHA!) Unsheathing my dagger I glanced at Percy who was uncapping Riptide. We locked eyes. He looks cute when he's worried. The nearest Jaguar slashed its claws at me with eyes pure black like Nyx and I counter-attacked with a vicious forearm to the jaw that dazed it and pierced its belly with my knife banishing it to the monstrous Underworld. The dust settled the monsters had been defeated…

ANNABETH POV:

It was sleeping time again but I came up with an idea. "Listen. We're attracting too much attention for the monsters to enjoy. We must seem like a goddamn Tudor feast y'know?" Everyone nodded slowly. "So, I have a solution. We need to separate, not indefinitely, but for sleeping arrangements."

"Well I'm with you then Annie." Percy said.

"It's for sleeping arrangements Seaweed Brain!"

"Not like that! Just to guard you, please!" He gave me the seal eyes.

"Fine but Clarisse is with us too!" I retort.

"NO WAY! I am NOT bunking with Jackson!" Clarisse yells.

"Okay! Quiet down! Me with Perce, Dakota with Frank, Clarisse with Reyna."

"I do exist you know?" Adam chirped behind me.

"Oh yeah, sorry. I would put you with Dakota but you two needs to SWEAR not to slit each others throats! On the River Styx!"

"Sorry can't do that." Both replied.

"Fine then, Adam with Reyna and Clarisse!" I decide. Reyna, did I see her blush, and Adam smirks.

ADAM POV:

Now, to cause a distraction for Clarisse and to get alone time with Reyna!

AN: Okay! Probably my best chapter! Percabeth alone time and also Reynadam progression in the next chapter. POV switching between sleeping 'buddies'.

Goodbye,

Son of Zeus' Fury
