Leo 3rd Person POV

"Dang what the heck did I put myself into now!?"

As Leo groaned and kicked a rock on the ground, watching it skid away, he put his hands inside his pockets and said "I told them I would get a ride but I don't know what to do! Jake was nearly mangled by that thing and that Fecilia chick isn't even here to help me if I do get in trouble."

Under the bright moonlit sky of the night, Leo trekked the forest area of Camp Half Blood, searching for the bronze dragon located around the vicinity. He knew it was a stupid idea, heck most of his ideas were stupid, but he had the urge to volunteer for a quest of all things and he even promised to get them a ride.

Thinking about the dragon, Leo imagined how it looked like, would it be cool, big and awesome like his imagination or freaking scary and most likely rip his face off. None of that mattered to him right now since he was already here and his ADHD wouldn't make him go back without accomplishing his said task.

It was like when he made something with machines, he wouldn't stop till it was complete and it feels the same with his promise to his friends Jason and Piper.

You would think a loud guy like him would get a lot of friends but nope, he made friends here and there but he eventually ran away but here, he felt as if he belonged yet he didn't at the same time.

The Latino did not know how to feel about it but it was as if completing his promise would help him accept himself more. Besides, seeing a cool mechanical dragon was a plus too.

Cowering a bit after hearing some crows squawk, Leo grumbled and said "I know this place was big but how hard could it be to find a freaking twenty foot tall dragon?"

As he walked on, Leo suddenly came across a giant wreck. The ground was torn and dented; the trees were burned and snapped, large Celestial Bronze debris was scattered and its old form was smashed open as if something burned it from within and it broke out violently.

"Dang…" said Leo as he walked up to the area,

Touching the burned grass, he smelled it and took in the familiar scent of fire. Cringing, Leo wiped his ashy hand on his pants and then inspected the once cage and said "Whatever it was, it was really angry."

The Latino walked around the vicinity a bit more until he came across a giant foot print. It was about more than half his size and it was in pretty deep too. The boy stepped inside the print and thought "I can feel it, the dragon was here…"

Suddenly, a growling sound was heard and Leo turned to see a massive black dog like a Labrador, about eight feet tall lunge from the trees. The creature's blazing red eyes peered into Leo as the boy nervously backed off and said "Good dog, good dog, Leo doesn't wanna be a chew toy."

The Hellhound growled and bared its two inch fangs as Leo gulped and took a few steps back as he said "Stay…stay…"

The mutt barked as it ran towards Leo with a growl in its throat. Scrambling out of the footprint, Leo ran as fast as he could away from the Hellhound hot on his tail. Tripping over a rock, Leo fell down near the broken Celestial Bronze debris and he was on his back as he crawled back and said "No! No!"

The Hellhound leapt at him as Leo desperately grabbed for a sharp broken piece of Celestial Bronze and held it forward with his eyes closed and the monster found a iron rod impaled in its maw as it burst into golden powder, coating Leo.

Opening his eyes as he held the sharp pipe and as his chest rose as he heavily breathed and he said "What the hell was that…I could have died!"

Slowly getting up, Leo dusted the powder off him until a howl was heard and two more Hellhounds came into view. These two were bigger than their friend and they were obviously mad and they knew what was on Leo's clothes.

"I'm so dead…" said Leo,

Leo held the pike ready with his legs quaking in fear as one of the two hounds ran at him with its maw open. He rolled to the left and dodged but he was caught off guard when the second one got the drop on him and held his arms and legs down and slobber fell on his shirt.

He was face to face with the hound's open maw but then, a long black line wrapped around the hound's snout closing his mouth and pulling him back hard skidding on the ground.

Leo got back up to see from the trees came out Allen who had two whips by the ends of his arms coming out of the two bracelets he had. The two pitch black lines swished around as he said "Stay calm kid,"

The Latino watched as Allen eyed the two hounds as the one that fell got up and growled at him. He swished his whips as the two slowly circled him under the night sky. With a flick of his wrists, red energy surged from the bracelets and the lines ignited in red energy.

The two hounds pounced as Allen fixed his only eye on the bigger one and flicked his arm forward as he rolled capturing the beast's leg and with a tug as soon as he recovered, he flipped in the air and used the kinetic force and threw the hound a few feet in the air.

Leo watched in awe as Allen landed gracefully on the ground and grasped one line with his hand and in one motion; the red line whipped up and severed the hound cleanly in the middle making turn into golden powder.

The second hound growled as Allen stretched his neck and growled at the monster. The monster lunged as Allen merely side stepped and whipped horizontally as his glowing lines whipped across the beast's legs, wounding them and it fell hard on the ground unable to use its legs.

Approaching the fallen hound, Leo watched the whips shrink back into his bracelets and Allen had a red blade, glowing like his whips, come from the bracelet. It was about a feet long and it hummed with energy as Allen stabbed down and the creature was no more.

The blade retracted back in while Allen brushed his shoulders as he glared at Leo's surprised face and said "What the hell are you doing here at this hour?"

Leo was speechless after what he had seen; now he really believes this guy was one of the Camp's elites like what Nyssa said. He radiated confidence and he took down the dogs like nothing. If he had not been here, Leo would have died or worse, have to use his talent.

The Cyclops narrowed his one eye and said "Did I stutter huh kid?"

Leo gulped and said "I was looking for the dragon Nyssa told me about, I'm going with Jason on the quest tomorrow and I promised we'd have a ride. I think there's just something wrong with the dragon and I think I can fix it."

"Hmm, the Son of Zeus huh…" Allen said slowly, "You really think you can fix the dragon? I'd personally prefer it if Talon was here but if you say you can do it I guess I'll help you. You can fix it right?"

The Latino slowly nodded and said "Y-Yeah"

Slowly walking towards Leo, thinking he was going to scare him, Allen walked past him and put his hand on the giant print and said "Its fresh, ground is still pressed. Follow me."

Without a word, Leo followed Allen and a few minutes later, the Latino then said "Forgot to say my name was Leo Valdez, call me Leo though."

"Names Allen," said the Cyclops without giving a glance,

"What if I call you Captain Hook?" asked Leo suddenly,

Allen tensed as Leo cursed silently and thought "Me and my big mouth…"

Allen then turned and faced him with his one eye bored as he said "Don't bother, you know, I had this close friend of mine who was like you, he was loud, jumpy, energetic and really talkative."

The Cyclops remembered Jack and then Leo said "Who is he?"

"My brother," said Allen, "Jack Rider, he's dead."

Leo bit his tongue and said "Sorry man…"

"No," said the older teen, "its fine, it's just that you sort of remind me of him. He was a Son of Zeus like your friend except he was way different, louder, more talkative, more spirited but I bet Jack could fight better too."

Leo glanced at his bracelets and he said "How did you do that? You fight so good, who's kid are you?"

"No ones," said Allen, "I'm mortal; I got to where I am through years of training. Not like you,"

He turned, jabbed Leo's arm with a finger and said "Skinny,"

Allen then shoved his chest with one hand "Weak,"

Finally he flipped his arm causing him to fall on his back and Allen spoke "And slow too."

The mortal pulled him up as Leo groaned and thought "What is with this guy?"

"Your weapons," said Leo, "they look cool."

"Better than a pipe huh?' said Allen with a scoff,

Leo rolled his eyes while Allen's smile died and he said "I'd appreciate it if no one else knew about my weapons."

"Why?" asked Leo,

"Let's just say that it's a secret weapon," said the mortal,

Suddenly, the two came to a stop where metallic sounds of clanking were heard from beyond a patch of trees. Leo gulped as Allen raised his hand and said "You wanted a chance now here you go, come on. Its morning in a few hours."

Jason 3rd Person POV

Standing in front of the pictures in front of the Zeus Cabin walls, Jason couldn't seem to sleep as thunder rumbled often above the cabin. Stealing glances on the giant statue of his dad, Jason held the gold coin in his hands for comfort.

All this time, he had met new people, made new friends but a voice in the back of his head screamed danger. Even now he felt this territory was unsafe, dangerous and he was not welcome here.

Brushing a hand through his blonde hair, he looked at the pictures and slowly gazed over them. Most of the pictures were about a blonde like him, Jack; he remembered the name from Zoe and a familiar looking girl with raven black hair and blue eyes.

His thoughts were snapped back as a knock was heard on the door and Annabeth came in and said "Hey,"

"Hey back," said Jason looking at her,

The girl nodded and said "I'm just here to give a hand; you know how you have to look for Hera within four days? Well best begin by hunting for those escaped Venti and search from there."

"How will we do that?" asked Jason,

"I may know somewhere you could ask for help," said Annabeth,

"Where would that be?" asked the boy,

"Quebec," said Annabeth, "Find the North Wind God Boreas. He's friendly and his daughter Khione is Fecilia's, one of our best's, Patron God. She'll be glad to help you."

Remembering Zoe's crash course on the Forethought Five, he nodded and said "Hopefully Leo finds a way for transportation."

He looked at the pictures again and Annabeth noticed him look at the pictures and said "That's Thalia and Luke."

She pointed at the sandy blonde and black haired girl and Jason said "Hmm…"

"WhRemembering Zoe's crash course on the Forethought Five, he nodded and said "Hopefully Leo finds a way for transportation."

He looked at the pictures again and Annabeth noticed him look at the pictures and said "That's Thalia Grace and Luke Castellan."

She pointed at the sandy blonde and black haired girl and Jason said "Hmm…"

"Why?" asked Annabeth,

Jason looked her in the eye and said "Can you keep a secret?"

Annabeth nodded and said "I swear on the Styx."

Thunder rumbled louder as Jason said "When you said the girl's name, a thing clicked in my head. I remember something…I think she's my sister."

"What?" asked Annabeth, "Thalia had no brother."

Jason was about to reply when suddenly a massive roar was heard from outside.

Piper's 3rd Person POV

Waking up in the Aphrodite Cabin wasn't a good thing to do especially if your Cabin mates are shallow people who think of no one but themselves. Remembering last night on how she tried to lose Aphrodite's blessing and failed.

She had tried rubbing her eyes till it went red but that failed, she tried washing off the makeup and still failed and even trying to dirty her up but failed. Waking up, she immediately ran to the mirror to see if it had passed but she sighed when she saw she was still as gorgeous as last night.

Lacy, who had been one of the two who was nice to her handed her a change of clothes and said "Here! The blessing prevents you from ruining yourself but you can change clothes."

Soon, after Piper had changed into a comfortable pair of jeans and a simple shirt, she sighed and said "Thank you Lacy."

The girl smiled kindly while Mitchell gave her a bag and said "All packed up and good to go Piper! Good luck!"

She took the bag and gave the two grateful looks while Drew came in with her hair being dried and she said "Oh look, Dumpster Queen is up, have fun on your quest and try not to come back."

Scowling, Piper looked at Lacy and Mitchell one last time but then a massive roar was heard and Piper, along with everyone else rushed outside to see a twenty feet dragon, almost as tall as Asteron when in full form, land on the ground with a roar.

Fire and heat emanated from its mouth while it's ruby eyes clicked and focused. Campers in pajamas and in armor crowded as form its back, Allen and Leo stood and Leo said "Hold on!"

"What is this?!" asked Piper,

Leo laughed and said "A ride!"

Allen hopped off as Riley approached him and said "Red what the heck is this? Isnt this the-"

"Yes," replied Allen,

"And you and the new kid-"

"Yes we did,"

"Well-"

Allen snickered at her being speechless and he saw Jason exit the Zeus Cabin with Annabeth with his bag. Glaring at him, Allen sighed and walked up to him and said "Look, I don't like you and you don't like me but I'm the Oracle and I'm here to say, beware the earth as the prophecy said. I don't know what it means but its important."

Jason nodded as he saw Leo and the Latino said "Come on! Festus is waiting!"

"You named it Festus?" said Zoe who approached with her hunting bag and standard vest.

"You do know what that means?" asked the huntress,

"Um…."

"Its mean Happy boy," said Zoe,

She sighed and said "You named it Happy the Dragon…"

Jason face palmed while Piper giggled and Leo said "Who cares!? Get on!"

Zoe, Piper and Jason boarded the dragon as Annabeth met eyes with Zoe and she gave her a nod. Allen nodded as well while Riley waved and said "Hey! Zoe! G'luck ya'all!"

The huntress gave her fellow huntress a nod while Leo said "All good?"

"We head to Quebec," said Jason,

"North then," said Zoe pointing to the left,

Piper nodded as she watched themselves fly off the ground while Leo said "Come on Festus! Let's fly! To Quebec!"

The dragon whirred and buzzed while Zoe grasped her amulet and said "I'm coming Perseus…"
