Neutral POV
"Morning, Jake. Morning guys." Nico said as the pack walked out of the Poseidon cabin. Jacob grinned at the young fourteen year old.
"Hey Nico. Hey Thals." he replied.
"Come on! I want to show you guys the beach. It's Seph's favorite place." Thalia said with a smile. The pack followed the two demigods, before running into a group of silver-clad girls.
"Hey Thalia. Hello, Nico." one girl said. Thalia nodded to her.
"Phoebe. Where are you taking the girls?" she asked.
"We're going to the archery range. Will you be joining us?" Phoebe asked, sending a disdainful look at the boys of the pack. Thalia caught her look, and grabbed her arm, and whispered in her ear. Phoebe's eyes widened with every word.
"They're the kindest I've ever met. She was so destroyed, and they built her up. They can't break anyone's hearts." Thalia finished, and Phoebe slowly grinned, and looked at the boys.
"If you want to hang out with us once you're done at the beach, you guys are welcome to. See you later!" she said, and walked away, talking to the other girls.
"What was that about?" Embry asked, confused. Thalia laughed.
"I told Phoebe that you boys are werewolves, and that you imprint on girls, and it is physically impossible for you to break a girl's heart, because the one girl you end up with is your soulmate. They're my huntresses." Thalia explained. Jacob grinned.
"Awesome. So they're good with us?" he asked.
"Yeah. Surprisingly, you all are the first males that my girls trust, besides Nico. I knew they would like you, though." Thalia said happily. The group walked through the camp, receiving stares.
"Thals, Nico, I have a quick question." Seth asked as they reached the beach.
"Sure, Seth." Nico said, plopping down on the sand, joined by his cousin.
"You two know everyone in camp, right?" Seth said, looking down shyly.
"I would think so. Why?" Thalia asked.
"There's this girl. She's got blonde hair in pigtails, and she had big green eyes. She has braces. Who is she?" Seth asked, a blush forming on his face.
"Oh! That's Lacy. She's a daughter of Aphrodite. Why?" Nico said, and Seth's blush grew darker. Jacob began to laugh at his friend's embarrassment. The pack seemed to slowly understand.
"OH MY GOSH! My baby brother finally imprinted!" Leah said, squealing. She reached forward, and hugged Seth tightly.
"Congrats, little bro!" Paul said with a laugh, clapping Seth on the back. Thalia looked at Nico, a mischievous look in her eyes.
"I'll be right back." Nico said with a smirk. He stood, and ran back up to camp.
"Where's he going?" Jacob asked, amused. Thalia grinned, but stayed silent. Nico came back a few minutes later, followed by the girl, Lacy.
"What's this about, Nico?" Lacy was asking as Nico led her to the beach.
"My friend, Seth, wants to see all of Camp. He came with Persy's friends, and I was wondering if you wanted to show him around." Nico told her, and Lacy sighed, but nodded. They reached the pack, and Lacy noticed the youngest boy, who was very good-looking, looking at the sand, and blushing furiously.
"Hi! I'm Lacy, a daughter of Aphrodite." Lacy said with a smile ,and Jacob grinned back.
"I'm Jacob. This is Seth." he said, pushing his little brother up, and towards the demigoddess. Seth smiled slightly at her, and Lacy felt her cheeks heat up.
"I'll show you around camp, if you'd like." she said shyly. Seth's smile grew bigger.
"That would be awesome!" he said happily, and Lacy took his hand, and pulled him towards the center of camp, talking and laughing together. Jacob held his hand out, and Nico high-fived it.
"Well done, Nico." Paul said, clapping slowly. Nico laughed, and stood, bowing.
"Shall we go join the huntresses?" Thalia said with a smile. They all nodded, and Walked back up the beach, and Thalia led them to the archery range, where demigods were surrounding the huntresses, and watching them.
"Hey Phoebe!" Thalia called, waving to her second-in-command. Phoebe grinned at them.
"Hello Lieutenant. Have you all come to join us?" she asked, and Thalia nodded. The campers looked shocked as the huntresses welcomed the boys.
"I think we'll just watch. You're all obviously the better archers, and we wouldn't want to get in your way." Jacob said with a smile, holding his hands up. Thalia looked at him proudly, and Phoebe looked him up and down before smiling.
"I like you, Jacob Black. No wonder Persephone loves you." she said, and turned back to the huntresses. The campers gathered around the range gaped at Jacob.
"Jacob!" Chiron trotted over to the pack.
"Yes, sir?" Jacob asked, turning away from the archers.
"Persy just sent me an IM. She, Sam, and Emily will be here in a week once they're all prepared." Chiron said, and Jacob grinned, happy that he would be able to see his girlfriend in a week. It didn't feel right, not having her with him.
Persy POV
"Alright. I sent the IM to Chiron. It gives us time to prepare our things, and to come up with a strategy. I don't trust Tony anymore. For all we know, he could force the wolves to be in the front. I don't want that." Persy said, sitting at the counter with Sam and Emily on the other side, a map of camp spread out in front of them.
"I recommend having you and Jake with Leo, along with Leah. Kronos most likely knows about the leech's weakness, so he'll try and take Leo out. He'll need the most protection." Sam said, and Persy nodded.
"Seph, I can have Thalia and the Huntresses stay in the forest, and watch over Zeus' Fist, and make sure nothing's getting in through there. I'll have some of the Ares kids go with them, too." Emily offered.
"That sounds good. I think we've gotten the big parts covered, but that's not enough. Kronos knows where we're weakest, since he looked through Luke's memories. We need to also concentrate there.' Persy said, and the three spent most of the day, and night thinking of battle plans, and places to station the demigods and werewolves.
"What if we had the other wolves positioned with the Hunters? They can move through the forest well, seeing as how they live in the middle of one." Sam said.
"That's a good idea. The Hunters may even be tolerant of the pack, seeing as how they can never break someone's heart, and they're always searching for their mate. Plus, they happen to be Artemis' sacred animal!" Persy said happily. Sam laughed, and ruffled her black hair.
"You seem very excited." He commented. Persy rolled her eyes, and shoved his hand away.
"Oh hush. I'm just ready to go. We can get this done in two weeks, right?" she asked. Emily joined her fiancé in laughing at the daughter of Poseidon, and put a hand on her shoulder.
"Don't worry, we will." She comforted.
"So, we'll go see the Cullens tomorrow. They've given us permission to cross over the border." Sam said, and Persy nodded.
"They'll have an idea for what we should expect. We have to find out also if Kronos is using newborns in his army. If he is, we'll need more fire." She said in a slightly afraid voice.
"We'll get rid of him, Seph." Sam said with a smile, "He won't hurt any of them. Trust me." Persy looked up at her cousin, and gave him a smile.
"Thanks, Sammy." She said happily, and the three went back to poring over their maps, and writing down strategies.
Please review!
You are all amazing people, and you should always be yourself.
See you soon, demigods and werewolves!
Love,
Enchantress
