XXII Piper

"Avenge me..." the lady with the fierce eyes said.

Piper woke up panting. She was drenched in sweat.

"What?" She rubbed the sleep out of her eyes. "Avenge...?" She whispered.

Annabeth! The lady had eyes like her.

Could it be Athena? What does she want? What does she mean?

All piper could remember from her dream was seeing a dark dark place.

She was able to smell the place even in her dream, musky and foggy.

She saw her friend Annabeth dangling over something. Only one thing was keeping from falling but piper couldn't see what it was.

Piper also saw some weird merman with blue skin.

He definitely did not look friendly.

He was scaly and had sharp claws that was in need to a manicure pronto.

uh-oh.

Piper cannot believe she just thought that.

She was becoming more like her siblings and mother day by day.

Piper shook her head to clear herself of her thoughts.

Piper decided to check on her friends.

She got up and checked Leo, Frank, Hazel and Jason. She got over to the blue room and noticed an empty bed.

Panic welled up inside of her.

Where's Percy?

Annabeth is going to freak! He's missing again?

Piper swears if Hera/Juno tried to mess with again she is going to...

She ran to Annabeth's room opening the door frantically and stopping by the door frame when she processed what was in front of her.

The adrenaline she felt earlier left her system.

Piper smiled.

They look so cute.

Annabeth was lying on Percy's chest, his arms wrapped protectively around her.

Annabeth looked so peaceful, not like what piper saw in her dream.

Piper then felt a tinged of pain.

She doesn't know if Jason and her could ever be like what Percy and Annabeth is.

She signed and closed the door.

"Piper..."

"meep!" Piper jumped up in surprise.

"Sorry. I didn't mean to creep up on you like that."

Piper blushed.

"Jason? What are you doing up?"

Piper noticed the dark circles under his eyes.

Jason rubbed his eyes. He looked so tired.

"Couldn't sleep." Jason said with a yawn.

"I decided to go turn off autopilot and fly this thing to keep my mind busy."

Piper pursed her lips.

"Jason, you should rest. You'll need the energy" Piper said putting a little charm speak.

Jason looked as though he was in a dream-like state for a second

"I should..."Jason nodded

"I'll go-Hey!" Jason snapped out of it, playfully glared at piper.

"Don't charm speak me." He scolded. Piper gave him a bashful smile and a shrug of her shoulders.

"Seriously sparky. I have a feeling we won't be able to settle down and take a breath in the upcoming weeks."

Piper thought of her dreams.

"Piper...Is there something you wanna share?" Jason raised an eyebrow.

Piper definitely did not want to share. It would only make him more stressed.

But she knew she batter tell someone. Who better than to help her figure it out than Jason? Even if she grudgingly admit she's still upset with him over the lady praetor.

Piper took a deep breath and told Jason everything.
