While building Argo 2, Leo decides to buy a new video - camera, and film everything that's going on. Including interviews with campers, Jasper, Percabeth and more (: I suck at summaries. Placed between TLO and SoN. T because I want.

Disclaimer: I if were Rick Riordan, I wouldn't be writing this. I'd be working on "The Mark of Athena". So apparently, I'm NOT Rick Riordan, who owns all the characters.

Chapter nine, part one: the Twist

It was while in lunch. Leo sat by his table with the rest of the cabin, and they ate their food hungrily. "I'm so hungry I could eat a horse," Leo said. He was eating his chicken, and was joking around.

"Poor Chiron," Jake said, "if I was him, I wouldn't get around you now."

"Very funny," Leo made a face. He swallowed the piece of chicken he chewed, and then stretched. "We should finish with the Argo 2 until next week. We have only a month until the summer solstice."

"Don't act like Annabeth," Harley said. His red hair was messy from the wind of the fire in the forges. "I had enough of her this morning. She was yelling at us for not cleaning Bunker Nine (A\N: remember that bunker? I forgot about it 'till now…)."

"Don't be hard on her," Piper appeared behind Leo. Her hair was braided and laid on her shoulder, and her clothes were not as clean as usual. She was helping cleaning the warship, Leo thought to himself. "She wants everything to be perfect. You know Annabeth. And she misses Percy, too. I'm sure she wants to meet him as soon as possible."

"Wow, Piper," Leo said, "you sound like a real daughter of Aphrodite."

Piper rolled her eyes. "And you sound like a complete idiot," she said. "Anyway, Annabeth told me Chiron calls a counselors meeting. You should come."

"I guess," Leo sighed. He looked at his plate. "Will you wait for me?" he asked it. Thankfully, the plate didn't answer. "I feel like you will," Leo decided. Then he turned to Piper, who tried her best not to laugh. "Are we going?" he asked.

"Yup. And you just proved my point of you being an idiot," Piper said. "Let's go."

When they entered the TV room in the Big House, almost everyone were there: Connor and Travis Stoll were talking to each other, probably discussing a new prank. Katie Gardner was watering the flowers on the ping-pong table. Butch was glaring at his tattoo, and Jason was waiting for Piper and Leo. He raised his eyes from the book he was reading and smiled at them. "Wassup?" he said.

"Great," Piper sat on the chair next to him.

"What happened?" Jason asked.

"She got her manicure done," Leo laughed.

Piper rolled her eyes. "Yeah, right. I, Piper McLean, was getting a manicure."

"You've got a point there," Leo smiled.

Jason smiled, too, "seriously, guys. What happened?"

Before Piper could answer, Annabeth and Rachel and Chiron (in a horse form) entered the room. Annabeth was dressed in her usual outfit; an orange camp T-shirt and jeans. Rachel wore her school uniform, which looked kinda weird. Leo wasn't used to Rachel in a dress.

"Is everybody here?" Chiron asked.

"Yes," Will said.

"Great," Chiron said. "I was willing to talk to you about our next quest. We all know where we're going to, am I right?"

"Yes," everyone said.

"My question is who's going to go?" Chiron said.

"We all agree that Jason, Piper and Leo have to go on that quest," Rachel took a step forward. "Hera herself said that. They are the first three of the seven of the Second Great Prophecy."

"Lucky us," Leo muttered. "We're getting the chance to get killed. Yay."

"Shut up, Leo," Piper said. She stood up and looked at everyone in the room. "What about you, Rachel?" she asked. "I think we might need you. You're the oracle. You should come."

"I can't come," Rachel said. "I feel it inside. I can't really explain why."

"What about you, Chiron?" Leo asked. "Will you come with us?"

The old Centaur nodded. "I'm sorry, Leo. Without Mr. D. around, I can't leave the camp. Some has to be in charge and make sure everybody will behave."

"Hey!" the Stolls protested when Chiron looked at them.

"Don't be naïve," Katie said. "You know what he's talking about. So Chiron stays here." She stopped for a second, as to consider something she was about to say. "I think Annabeth should go."

"She's going," Jason said. "We agreed about that one back in December. We'll need your help in Greece."

"You will," Rachel said.

"You feel that?" Piper asked.

"I know that," Rachel smiled, but her smile wasn't happy, and Leo had a feeling she was hiding something from them.

"So Jason, Piper, Leo and Annabeth are going?" Butch asked. "I don't have a problem, but I think more people should go. We don't know for sure if the Romans will attack us."

"That's why I think a warship is not a good idea," Clarisse said. Leo was surprised to hear her talking. He didn't notice her before, which was almost unbelievable.

"It's too late to regret now," Jason said. "I promise they won't attack. I know them. Some of them think the Greeks excited, and they will be happy to attack, but I hope Percy will be able to change their mind."

"Right," Leo smacked his forehead. "I almost forgot Percy's there."

"We don't know it for sure," Annabeth tune was sad. "Tyson told me he tried to contact him, but not successfully."

"What about Nico?" Will asked. "We haven't heard from him for the last three weeks."

"Nico? Why does it sound familiar?" Jason asked.

"Nico Di-Angelo, son of Hades," Annabeth said. "He visited on April. He stayed for two days."

"I know him," Jason said. "I met him before."

"Before April? It's impossible," Annabeth said.

"The memory comes back," Jason said. His eyes shone, like they did each time he gained a memory back. "I met him. He has a sister."

"Yes, Bianca. But she's dead," Rachel said.

"No," Jason sounded confused. "Hazel."

"Hazel?" Connor asked. "There's no Hazel at camp."

"She's not from here," Jason said. "She's from Camp Jupiter. I met Nico at Camp Jupiter."
