Jason POV
Jason remembered that giant. Piper, Leo, and him (and sort of Hera) had to fight him last year. But that damn thing teleported before we can finish it off. Jason looked over at the giant. Something was eerily wrong. Don't monsters turn to dust when they are destroyed? Then out of nowhere the monster is gone. Jason's eyes widened.
"Percy! Come here!" Jason yelled. Percy ran over, pushing through the crowd of demigods. When he reached Jason he gave him an interested look. "That monster just disappeared. Don't they turn to dust." Percy's eyes grew.
"I'm so stupid." Percy said. His sea green eyes were filled with annoyance.
"It was all of us. We all should've noticed it, but we didn't." Jason admitted. Percy slightly nodded.
"Percy, Jason!" Chiron called. "Meeting in the Big House now." Percy and Jason walked over to Chiron. They exchanged a nervous look.
"Uhhh…Chiron." Percy said. "That giant that we supposedly killed is still alive." Chiron gave him a deathly stare.
"This is not the place to talk. Big House now!" Chiron galloped over and Percy and Jason ran after them. When they reached the Big House there was two empty seats in the middle of the circle. Jason and Percy quickly slid into the chairs. "So you all are the destined seven?" They all nodded. "When are you planning to leave to Rome?" Chiron asked.
"Tomorrow morning." Annabeth replied. Chiron gave a distracted nod. "Oh, and you haven't been properly introduced to Hazel and Frank, they are Roman demigods from Camp Jupiter." They both gave a small wave.
"Who are your godly parents?" Chiron asked.
"Mars, uh…I mean Ares." Frank said. Chiron gave a nod.
"And you?" He looked at Hazel.
"Pluto, well for you Hades." Hazel said. Chiron's glare became more intrigued by the name Hades. She noticed his stare and was a little scared. "Did I do something wrong?" She asked innocently.
"No, no my dear. It's just that Hades hasn't had children since Nico-" He stopped himself. Hazel gave Percy and look and he nodded. She told Chiron everything. About her mother, and her curse to raise jewels, how Nico saved her from the underworld, and how now Nico is missing and is trapped at the Doors of Death in the underworld. "Interesting…" Chiron replied. "That is not a common story." Hazel let out a nervous laugh. "Was the ride here smooth?" Chiron asked. A nervous laugh went through the demigods.
"If you call almost getting killed by a power hungry ice princess smooth, than yeah. For sure!" Leo sarcastically remarked. Chiron looked at Leo confused.
"Khione." Annabeth explained. Chiron nodded. "She invaded the boat with a dozen furies."
"She always did have a cold heart." Chiron noted.
"Tell me about it." Leo commented. Piper let out a giggle. Her hair was still even, but Piper put it in one braid and tossed it to the side. Jason had his arm around.
"Now tell me, are you all going to sail or fly to Rome?" Chiron asked. They all exchanged looks and finally Annabeth spoke.
"We are going to follow the prophecy and sail to Rome." Chiron nodded.
"A wise choice." He complemented. "Okay that is all we need to talk about for now. There will be a camp fire tonight. Meeting abjured. Jason and Percy exchanged a look and stayed seated.
"Are you guys coming?" Piper asked. Her eyes were a beautiful shade of blue. Jason smiled.
"I'll meet you outside in a minute." Jason replied. She smiled and walked proudly out of the room. Jason and Percy gave each other one more look. Chiron stared at them seriously. "We need to discuss Porphyrion. He is still out there." Jason said. His voice was full of determination.
"We don't want to scare the campers more." Chiron said calmly.
"But they deserve to know!" Percy yelled.
"Enough!" Chiron yelled. "I will not hear any more of this!" He trotted out of the room leaving Percy and Jason alone. They exchanged a nervous and confused glance. Jason's electric blue eyes were filled with purpose.
"We have to warn them!" Jason said. He was about to storm out, but Percy grabbed his shoulder.
"Wait. Maybe Chiron's right…" Percy said. "Maybe it would scare them more."
"Percy, do you hear yourself?" Jason asked. His eyes were filled with discrimination. "You agreed with me just a few minutes ago. They have a right to know."
"It's just…I wish that I didn't know. We have enough enemies to deal with , adding a man eating giant to our list isn't my idea of fun." Percy admitted. Jason looked down than back at Percy.
"Fine." Jason grunted.
"You're doing the right thing, you know." Percy comforted. Jason didn't answer. He looked at the tile mosaic floor. His eyes seemed dimer, and not as bright as usual. Maybe that was a thing with ADHD; it's hard to forget your beliefs. Jason stormed out of the Big House and went to find Piper. He saw her talking to some Athena girl. She made eye contact and smiled.
"I got to go." Piper said. "Talk to you guys later." She waved and ran toward Jason. She hugged him tight. He smiled. His white teeth glowed in the sun. He kissed her. His blonde hair hung naturally in his face. When they pulled away Piper's eyes were filled with love.
"I love you." They said simultaneously. They both laughed and kissed again.
