Chapter 16: Reyna
A girlfriend. Jason had a girlfriend. Just her luck. As Reyna walked away from the meeting, she remembered how Jason had acted around Piper, the Venus child. Well of course someone like her could get him, Venus children were good at that. Jason and Reyna had been pretty close friends, and on their way to starting a real relationship. But then Juno just had to intervene and wipe Jason's memory and make him moony-eyed for some girl he didn't even now. How convenient.
"Reyna, wait up!" someone shouted. Reyna wiped away the tears that she could feel coming and turned. Bobby was coming towards her.
"What do you think Lupa is gonna do about Annabeth and Leo and Piper?" he asked. Piper. Just hearing the name made Reyna's mouth taste bitter. But she cleared her mind and turned
to Bobby.
"I don't know. They'll probably want to get out of here as fast as possible." Reyna replied. She planned to make their stay here, especially Piper's, very uncomfortable.
"Yeah." Bobby replied. "I'm just nervous about the quest. And I just found out that I have a Greek demigod for a brother. And probably a bunch more. Its not exactly the best news." Bobby made a face.
Reyna nodded in agreement. "Yep, the Greeks are definitely not the first people to choose to be your ally, are they?" The Greeks, like Reyna had said earlier, were weak and pathetic. And Jason had thought that Reyna couldn't take Annabeth down in a fight. She would prove him wrong eventually, one way or another. Reyna could tell this journey was going to be rough.
Leo
Lupa asked the four who had come on the Argo II, along with Percy, to stay and talk to her for a moment. They decided that the Vulcan cabin would help Leo fix the boat, and while that was happening, some tents would be set up for them. One for Annabeth and Piper, and another for Leo. Jason, obviously, would be moving back into his old cabin.
Once they left, Annabeth turned to the group and said, "We have to contact Chiron." Leo nodded in agreement.
Percy looked confused for a moment. Then a spark went off. "Oh, Chiron! I- I've remembered him, but I haven't really given him much thought." Percy withered under Annabeth's accusing stare.
Then she relaxed. "There's my Seaweed Brain." she said, smiling. "Percy, do you know where there's a river? So we can make a rainbow?" she asked.
"Yeah, there's one a little ways in the woods." he answered.
When they got there, they found that Percy didn't need to do any freaky water power stuff, because the setting sun and the mist from the river was already making a pretty stable rainbow.
"Oh, Iris, goddess of the rainbow, accept my offering." Annabeth said, throwing in a golden drachma. It dissolved in the rainbow. "Chiron at Camp Half-Blood." Annabeth continued.
The image shimmered, and they turned to see Chiron at the Big House in full centaur form, standing on the porch and looking out at the camp.
"Chiron!" Annabeth shouted. He turned, and he smiled with relief.
"Annabeth! I see you are safe! And Percy! How are you, my boy? What do you remember?" Chiron asked, still smiling.
"A lot of things, actually." Percy smiled back. But there's only one person in this camp I've trusted enough to tell about what I've been remembering."
"What about Lupa?" Chiron asked. "Does she know anything?"
Jason nodded. "When we arrived, we went to tell Lupa about what Ju- Hera had done. She said that that was what she suspected ever since Percy arrived here." Jason paused. "She said it was because of what he was wearing." Jason turned to Percy. "What were you wearing when you got here?" he asked with a frown.
Percy thought for a moment, then said. "Those orange t-shirts you guys are wearing, but with the words scratched out. And this necklace." Percy paused and said, "I know that this Camp Legion shirt and this necklace shouldn't go together. Its wrong. I can feel it. Now I know why." He looked at the ground sadly.
Chiron said, "Well, I'm glad you've been remembering things, Percy. But I must ask you this. Do you remember the prophecy about seven demigods?" Chiron searched Percy's face for recognition.
Slowly, he nodded. "Yes, I do. When they told me that they had heard the same prophecy here, I remembered it." Annabeth studied Percy's face, but Leo didn't know what she was looking for. Then he remembered that the oracle at Camp Half-Blood was a girl about Annabeth's and Percy's age. Was that what she was worried about?
Annabeth said, "Chiron, we've found the other two demigods who are going with us, but no one here has gone on a quest for a while, so we have no way of knowing if they're the right people." she seemed worried.
"Who are their godly parents?" Chiron asked. Leo and Annabeth exchanged looks, and Leo knew that she was thinking the same thing as he was. Neither of them wanted a half-sibling, especially Roman, with them.
Piper noticed their uncomfortableness and answered, "a girl named Reyna is a daughter of Athena, and a guy named Bobby is a son of Hephaestus." Leo and Annabeth slowly looked back up at Chiron.
"I'm not sure that's the best plan, though." Annabeth said. "We need as much help with the ship as possible, Leo and Bobby, and we also need strategists. But if we're going to be in the sky, we could use an archer." she finished.
Chiron considered for a moment. "I think that you have a good group. Yes, an archer would be good when you're in the sky, even in the sea, but I think that you are all perfectly capable of fighting with weapons other than bows and arrows. You can't count on one person to always do all the work." he said. "Besides, most monsters would want to get in close to kill you."
Annabeth nodded, but everybody could tell she was disappointed. She obviously did not want Reyna on this trip with her. Leo thought it would be cool to get a chance to know his half-brother, but if he tried starting to take charge of how the ship was run, Leo would have something to say about that.
"I must go." Chiron continued. "I have an archery class to teach. I will tell the camp that you have reached the Roman camp and will be back soon and on your way to Greece."
"Um, about that..." Leo started. "We kind of crashed the ship, so it might take a week or two to fix."
Chiron sighed. "All right, but be quick. The longer we wait, the stronger Gaea gets. You must sail to Greece soon!" And with that, he wiped his hand through the message, their connection to Camp Half-Blood was cut off, and they were left in the hands of people who were supposed to be the enemy.
