It had been 6 months since Gaea was defeated and so many things had changed in this time. We have had more than a hundred recruits. No child of the big 3, mind you, but a lot of powerful half-bloods. There are 16 cabins now, thanks to the hard work of Jason Grace, who spent a lot of time to give the minor gods respect and position. That guy had been blessed by more than 10 deities in less than 4 months.
Camp Half-Blood had recovered well after the war. Our army was strong as ever, with new strategies and drills, taken from the Romans and integrated into ours. We were a little more organized, but the chaos within each one of the demigods would scare even the strongest army. Our relations with the Romans was very very good. We met up once in a month and that was the day for first some integrated war games and then party later in the was the most fun all of us would have all month. The happiest thing was …a month ago, Leo Valdez, thought to be dead by all, had returned with his girlfriend, Calypso, the daughter of Atlas, full of life. We had welcomed him and that day, everyone was tearing up. Leo had helped both the camps by building up a portal between the camps, making it easier to transport in need of emergency or at times of party or meeting.
The Romans had expanded in a similar sought of fashion. Percy and I had spent a month in Rome training the cohorts on Greek style fighting, while Hazel and Jason had trained the campers at the Greek end. Our objective was to defeat the next threat sent towards us without any difficulty, or loss of life.
Currently, only Percy and I of the last prophecy, were at Camp-Half blood, along with Nico as well. The rest were at Camp Jupiter. We had had an interesting last night at the mall yesterday with the monster and the big guy helping us. Just as Percy was about to meet me ,an earth shattering roar ,well several earth shattering roars to be precise. And they seemed to be coming from the West end border of the Camp, right where Thalia`s tree as well as the guardian dragon Peleus stood.
At that moment, Percy arrived next to sword unsheathed, a determined look on his face.
"Lets check out what that was. Come on!"
I did not answer him back, but proceeded to follow him towards Thalia`s tree. Several other campers were also heading there. Just as I reached, I was met with a sight I did not think I was ever going to forget.
