Jacob POV
"Alright. Chiron will be waiting for you guys at the entrance to camp." Persy said, standing outside with the group. Jacob grinned at her.
"Don't worry, Seph. We'll be fine." He said, and Persy nodded, and turned to Nico, who was watching his cousin with amusement.
"Make sure they're safe. Jacob, guys, no one is to attack Anthony or Rachel. Not yet." Persy said, and Paul groaned.
"Darn!" he complained, and Persy hugged each of them, and Jacob picked her up, kissing her gently.
"Stay safe, Seph. I'll see you soon." He said, and Persy smiled, and nodded.
"Be careful." She said, and stepped away. Nico reached out his hand.
"Jacob, take my hand. Everyone else, link hands." He told them, and Jacob took the pale hand, and gripped Leah's hand with his other. He closed his eyes, and took a deep breath as he was engulfed with cold, and darkness.
"We're here." Nico said after a moment. Jacob opened his eyes, and gaped at the large camp in front of him.
"Damn." Embry said in awe. Nico grinned, and stepped forward.
"I, Nico DiAngelo, son of Hades, allow the werewolf pack of La Push to enter Camp Half-Blood." He said in a loud voice, then turned to the pack, "Come on. Chiron's waiting." Jacob followed them, and Leah kept her hand in his.
"You alright?" he asked in a quiet voice. Leah nodded.
"Yeah. I'm just… not comfortable here." She whispered back, and Jacob nodded. Leah had gotten very close with the other boys of the pack, but the bond that she and Jacob shared was special, and had only strengthened when she and Persy met. Nico led them to a large house, and into another room. Inside, someone was talking.
"It seems that he has taken something close to an empousa." A centaur said, and Jacob stepped forward, with the rest of his pack behind him. He looked at the creature, knowing that this was Chiron.
"That's close, but no cigar." He said, leaning against the doorpost. A tough-looking girl stood, pulling a spear out of nowhere.
"Who the Hades are you?" she demanded.
"Jacob Black. Resident expert on all things vampire. We would have gotten Edward here, but he's a bit busy at the moment." Jacob said, smirking. Seth snorted quietly behind him, but was elbowed into silence by his sister. Chiron smiled at him.
"You're the ones Persephone sent?" he asked, and the pack nodded.
"Your friend, Kronos. His host isn't an empousa. It's an actual, real-life vampire. You're gonna need our help to defeat them." Quill said, and Tony snorted.
"Why would we need your help? Especially if Persy sent you." he said, and Jacob growled, and stepped forward. He began to shake slightly, but Leah put a hand on his arm.
"Jake. Calm down." She whispered, and Jacob took a deep breath, and glared at Tony.
"Persy sent us because she didn't want to see her family die. Although, I was reluctant because I believed that you deserve everything that you have coming." he said, directing the last part at Tony. Tension built in the room as the two boys glared at each other. The room was silent, with the pack glaring at anyone who looked like they wanted to say something.
"Hi everybody! Sorry I'm late. The girls had trouble getting settled in." Thalia Grace came into the room, grinning. She faltered when she saw what was going on.
"Hey Thalia!" Seth chirped, grinning at the Huntress. Thalia smiled back at him.
"Hey, Seth. Jacob, down boy." She said, patting his head. Jacob raised an eyebrow at her as his friends held in laughs.
"Seriously? Thals, I'm not a dog." He said, and Thalia rolled her eyes.
"Sure about that?" she asked, and Jacob laughed, and Thalia smirked, and hugged him.
"Who are these guys? How are you letting them touch you?" Tony asked, standing up. Thalia glared at him, and the others in the room backed off slightly.
"Anthony Chase, these guys were there from the beginning when Persy left camp. They love her for her, and they wouldn't ever betray her." She said, and looked at the pack, "You wouldn't betray her, right?"
"Of course not! How could we betray our little sister?" Paul asked with a grin. Thalia nodded, satisfied. A girl with red hair huffed, and tossed her hair over her shoulder.
"Who would want that weakling as a little sister?" she asked, and Tony snorted. Jacob growled, realizing that this was Rachel Dare. He felt Leah beginning to shake violently next to him.
"Leah, calm down." He said, placing a hand on the girl's shoulder. She ignored him, and kept glaring at Rachel.
"It's all your fault." Leah growled, and Jacob turned to Seth.
"Take Leah out of here. Bring her back when she calms down." He said, and Seth nodded. He grabbed Leah's arm, and pulled her out of the room. Jacob could hear the young boy calming his sister down.
"What's wrong with her?" Rachel asked.
"You. Seph told us everything, and it's basically yours and Anthony's fault that Seph was so broken when she came to La Push. Seph's like a sister to Leah, and to all of us. Especially since Jacob-" Paul said, but stopped when Embry clamped a hand over his friend's mouth. Leah came back into the room, and glared at Rachel before taking a deep breath.
"Anyway, Kronos had taken the body of an actual vampire. The only way to defeat a vampire like that is actually with fire, so where's Leo Valdez?" Leah said, stepping forward. Jacob looked around, and saw an elfish-looking boy stand up, with a mischievous grin on his face.
"That's me, sweetheart. What do you need help with, baby? I got whatever you need." he asked flirtatiously, twirling what looked like a screwdriver between his fingers. Leah put her hand on her hips, and raised an eyebrow. Jacob glanced at the pack behind him, and they all took a step backwards. They all knew about Leah's temper when it came to boys attempting to flirt with her.
"First of all, don't you dare call me sweetheart, or baby. Second, don't think for a second that I'll go out with you. Thirdly, you're probably one of the most important people in this fight." Leah said, and Jacob snorted at Leah for shooting Leo down so quickly.
"Why me?" Leo asked, his face immediately going serious.
"Because, Persy told us that you can control fire. We're going to need you." Seth said, grinning. Jacob immediately groaned. He grabbed Seth, and pushed him behind him.
"No. You will not be hanging out with Leo. I think Persy likes her camp the way it is." He said, and the others knew exactly what he was talking about, and stepped in front of Seth.
"You guys are no fun." Seth complained. Jacob rolled his eyes, and looked at Chiron.
"Seph will be here sometime in the next couple of days. She, Sam, and Em are just finishing some things up with the coven living in Forks. They'll know some ways to slow him down." He told the centaur, who nodded.
"Thank you, Jacob. You and your pack will be welcomed here." Chiron said, and Jacob smiled, "Malcolm, please show our guests to their rooms." Malcolm stood, and grinned at them.
"Follow me, people." He said, and walked out of the room. The other boys and Leah turned to follow him, but Seth remained in his spot, frozen.
"Seth? You alright, man?" Jacob asked, placing a hand on his friend's shoulder. Seth remained staring ahead, and Jacob turned, following his line of sight to a blonde, green-eyed girl sitting at the table, speaking with Thalia. Her hair was pulled into pigtails, and she was smiling, showing braces on her teeth. She was strangely pretty, though.
"Jake. Did I just…" Seth began, looking at the older boy. Jacob grinned, and clapped his friend on the back.
"Come on, buddy. Let's go catch up with the others." He said, and they walked out, following the rest of their pack. They were standing on the porch, talking with Malcolm.
"Alright! Follow me, and I'll show you all to where you'll be staying. Chiron's letting you guys stay in the Poseidon cabin, seeing as he likes you, and Jacob and Persy are dating." The blonde said, and he led them to a cabin decorated with shells, and built from white stone. Jacob stepped into the cabin, and was immediately greeted with the smell of the beach.
"I'll send Thalia to get you guys tomorrow morning for breakfast. Sleep well, guys." Malcolm said with a grin, and left. Jacob looked around, and noticed that the entire cabin seemed to have been cleaned out.
"She must have taken all her stuff with her when she left." Leah said, running a hand over the empty desk. Jacob nodded, and noticed a bed that still had mussed sheets. He walked over, and immediately recognized Persy's scent. The juniper and ocean washed over him, and he smiled.
"Get some rest, everyone. And remember. Persy said the hunters are all girls, so if we see them tomorrow, show them the most respect out of anyone here. Even though Thalia trusts us, we need to show those girls that not all guys are selfish bastards." Jacob said, before his pack nodded, and all drifted off the different bunks, and went to sleep.
Please review!
