Common Ground

a tale of a Satyr and the Ghost Kings awkward friendship

Grover's Pov!

Juniper and I were walking along side a creek in the forest. It was a lovely day for a stroll, perfect for us to be alone together. We had stoped to get some lunch when I asked her something. "So, Juniper. I was thinking that we could go to the Camps Movie night together. It's girls choice so you'd get to pick out a great movie." I was sheepish and not cause my great aunt's part sheep. "I would love to go, Grover! It could be out second date." She leaned closer to me, resting her head on my shoulder. All was great, till I heard branches breaking from the trees above. "Watch out!" I said as we ran towards the creek, away from the broken branchs. I saw I black blurr hit the forest floor, was that..."Nico? That you?" I heard a graugy "Yea, call an Apollo.." as Juniper ran towards him. "No broken bones, only really bad bruises. Nector would help him." Juniper always wanted us to be at our best, even Nico who's barely around. I went to the Picnic Basket and brought out a bottle of liquid gold, Nector with ambrosia chunks mixed in.
I handed it to Juniper so se could pour it in his mouth, poor Nico. I looked up to see only some of the branches were broken, did he shadow travel in? "Some of these look like teeth marks. Where were you Nico?" He felt better after Juniper gave him a little Nector,"I was in the Underworld trying to map the place for Chiron. He wanted it so that if a child of Hades even wanted to go there they would have a map. I got a little to close to where my Dad keeps the Hellhounds." He started to laugh,"I guess they wanted to play with me." We laughed a little as his wounds disappeared, thank the Gods for Nector! Without it Nico might have needed a doctor, who would have found Ichor in his blood! I could just see the tests they would put a camper through if the government ever got a hold of a Halfblood. "Hey, Grover. Thanks for saving me." Nico smiled, creepy but welcoming. "Hey! I'm the one that healed you up! Don't I get a thanks?" Juniper said putting her hands on her hips. I came over and gave her a kiss. Nico aww'ed like an Aphrodite, I blushed and said "Do you mind?" Nico told me "Not at all go ahead." As he covered his eyes with his hand, his left eye showing. He smiled a demonic smiled, the one that teachers label as troublesome."Well, I'd love to stay and watch but I have to go spy on Rach-I mean see if Rachel needs any help." He smiled again, as he shadow traveled away. I grabbed his arm and said "If you ever need any help were here to heal you back up, ok?" but it was to late,I grabbed as he shadow traveled away so I ended up in Rachel Elizabeth Dare's Apartment in New York. Juniper isn't gonna be happy, "Nico get me back to my Girlfriend!" I shouted as Rachel looked pleased to see Nico. They embraced as I shouted again"Get me home!" "Nico, why did you bring Grover? Is something up." Rachel said, she was the Oracle of Delphi which ment that she could see the future in a weird rhyming verse. "Um, can't I go back to Camp?" I asked. "I need you for a quest. Rachel, its time." Nico seem pulled a small golden pouch out of a near by paint jar, empty I hope. Nico thanked her then opened it. "Here is the last feather of Arke, Titaness of the Double Rainbow and Messenger of the Titans." It was a faded out old feather that was see through but was also rainbow colored."It will give us a few seconds of faded out looking ness to get what Rachel needs." Nico put the feather back in."Then I go back to Juniper?" "Sure, just help us out, Ok?" Rachel looked at me with puppy dog eyes."Don't look, don't look. Ahh, Fine but only cause I want to get home." She smiled and ran to her kitchen, grabbing a near by paintbrush."So, what do we have to do again?" I asked. "You know, just get back my sword from my evil brother. Nothing major just if he gets to Apollo before us there will be enternal night." He said that as if it was normal. "Ok buddy. Lets go save the world, again!"
