Sorry for the wait

I own Nothing

I woke up with Annabeth's hair in my face; it smelled like freshly picked strawberries. Her face while she was asleep looked so peaceful and calm, like she was in Elysium. Which I was right now having her with me again, I started thinking about our future and what it would lead to. I imagined us living in the city once I did my time with the legion, and what we would do.

I was in mid thought when I felt turn over and face me. She snuggled her head into my chest and sighed.

"What are you thinking about Seaweed Brian?" she half mumbled to me

"Oh, I was just in thought about our future" I told her

"Then it's a good thing I got you back to reality, who knows how much empty space in your head there is, you might get lost again" she said looking up at me with a grin on her face.

"Shut up, WiseGirl" I told her.

With that we both got out of my bed and started getting dressed for what was going to be a very stressful day of mending two camps that didn't want to be together. Seriously, at breakfast there was no communications with one another not even a hello besides for me and Annabeth. Everyone was giving death glares.

"To hades with this you yellow-bellied bastard I won't sit here and let you Greeks into this camp to destroy it TO ARMS" Octavian shouted

A few people actually got up but before they could do anything I doused everyone with water.

"Octavian, stay in line roman and follow orders. Now since we were having war-games any way and no one seems to be able to wait, once we get through with breakfast gather weapons and prepare for battle. There will be no fortification only cohorts versus cabins, now Reyna, Jason, Annabeth, and I will referee. No killing but other than that free game" I said to hear the entire pavilion shake.

When I went out of the building I headed straight for blackjacks stable.

What up boss I heard him think

"Just a few dumbasses being pains in the rear" I replied

Want me to stampede em'

"Na that's okay tempting though" I said

So we refs for the big event, I don't even get to show out to this Roman camp on how to fight fair

"Hey I don't either and fight darn good, there are a lot of good people at this camp who will help us a lot" I told him

We'll see boss I don't like for now though fair enough

"Yea just don't stampede any of them" I told him

We made our way to the First Praetor's cabin I needed to talk with Reyna before the war game began. When I got there I heard her dressing in her armor and waited a few minutes before I knocked.

"It's Percy, can I come in?" I asked her

"Yea the doors unlocked" she told me

When I walked in she had her back turned to me and was bent over a chest in the center of her room. She was rummaging through it for something that I couldn't see.

"I wanted to talk with you about the war game today" I told her

"Yea, by the way thanks for the heads up on that" she sounded a little annoyed

"I didn't have much choice, if I hadn't we would have had a fight in the middle of breakfast" I told her

"Yea I know, were going to have to figure out a way to fuse these two camps together otherwise we'll be fighting at each other at the Doors of Death" she said with a frown on her face.

"I have Annabeth working on that, she's the smartest strategist I've ever met" I said with pride in my voice

"You love her a lot don't you" she stated

"More than anyone I've ever met in my life" I said

"Are you planning on marrying her?" she asked

"Yes sometime when this is all over with I'm going to pop the question" I said

"Well when you do I'll marry you two in accordance to Roman traditions" she said

"Really?" I asked

"Of course, you're as big a member of this camp as you are that one might as well make both of you" she said

"Thanks, anyway, there a few things I want you to look at when they fight today, I need you to notice the differences and start working on a way to mold them in to each other's styles" I told her

"Okay, you do the same I know that you know a little about our style but you need to learn it fully I have a feeling that we both need to rain our commanders in order for them to pass it down through our people" she told me starting to strategies

Before I could respond Blackjack spoke to me

Boss, while I'm thinking about it Scipio, passed it on to me that she's really sore and if we wouldn't mind if she road Porkpie

'Yea, no problem' I told him in my head

One more thing she said that you need to give Reyna tips in riding she's killin her back

'No problem' I told him

Thanks boss

"Hey, Reyna Scipio asked me to tell you that she's sore today and for you to ride Porkpie, also she said you need to work on your riding skills your killing her back" I said with a laugh, her face was priceless

"Son of Poseidon perk I can talk to horses" I said

"Okay, well we better get going the troops should be about ready for battle, and you're going to show me Porkpie, I'm still not used to having more than one Pegasus at camp" she told me

End of chap
