Blonde boy P.O.V.'s ((Not going to say who, but just a sneak peek))

I sat upon the edge of the wall of the Fifth cohort. Gazing along little Tibers, thinking to myself, 'How much longer...this war...'

"Hey!"

I turn around to see Reyna down below. I wave at her.

"Hey, down there."

Reyna sighs, "Jason, you heard the horn. Now come on, I'm hungry and I bet you're hungrier. "

"I'll meet you there, I want to enjoy the sunset a bit."

"Alright, sky guy." She does a little mock salute and jogs down the dirt road leading out of the barracks.

"Now then," I laid upon the roof, closing my eyes, "What do you want Christian?"

A small laugh can be heard from the other side of the barrack, "Any news, son of Zeus?"

"All of the demigods are training hard, well, any are children of Mars, Sun, Minerva, or like me. Not counting the ones with skills they developed themselves."

"Hmm, care to name a few who feel the same as us?"

"Heh, thought that was your job, Norak."

"I can't know everyone, beside...do you hear that?"

I stop my retort short as I hear the faint sound of wings then a sharp yell. I push myself up to see someone running to the Tibers, harpy on their tail and closing in. "Come on, we got another demigod."

Percy P.O.V.

I am in the worst place possible, surrounded, and stuck waiting for someone. I am at the mall, in front of its theater, waiting for Annabeth so I can get this date over with. I glance at the posters among the wall, Resident Evil: Extinction, Alien Versus Predator, but I wasn't that interested in the other movies. I look around for a clock to check the time, to see if the movie was going to start soon, 2:45, about 30 minutes until Wall-E starts. I take a seat in a nearby bench by the water fountain. I rest my head back, taking in the moment of serenity. Then I start going through the facts in my head. Currently, Luke is having our forces exploring the fabled Labyrinth. Annabeth is trying to get along with her father more, but just through calls and such. Thalia is at camp constantly sending me texts. Annabeth's sudden call took me off guard, nothing prior to date beside her sending pictures of her and her school. I sigh as I remember I'd have to visit the library after this. Getting some books on the heroic adventures of Hercules also some on the old legends.

"Percy!"

I look up to see Annabeth, coming around the corner. She had a small tight red dress and a black jacket. Instead of her laptop bag at her side she had some small purse. I raise an eyebrow at the sudden change in her appearance, but I kept my expression too long for her to laugh at me. I shake my head and blink a couple times and wave to her.

She stops by my side, sliding her arm in making its way around mine, "Did I leave you speechless?"

I look away from her, playing the bashful type, "No, I just...was amazed you didn't bring you hat and laptop."

She squeezes a bit tighter and I hear a small giggle, "Thanks for taking the time to watch this movie with me."

"Hey, no problem besides I really wanted to watch," I force myself to sound the least bit happy, ", Wall-E."

"Is that so? Because you don't sound like it."

"Just tired with school stuff, totally up for this." I turn back to face her, nodding my head, sporting a smile.

"..."She stares at me for a while then smiles, "Perhaps I should help you out with your stuff then, since your head is full of seaweed."

"Ha-ha, I appreciate the offer but I don't need an owl looking over my shoulder harassing me."

"How else am I supposed to get your attention?"

"Don't know, how about just telling me I'm wrong instead of pushing my hand away and correcting it yourself."

She just sticks her tongue out then laughs. She just smiles after it then says, "I'm glad."

"What for?"

"Nothing, I just needed...reassurance."

"Is that like insurance?"

She lightly hits my shoulder, "Shut up seaweed brain, come on, the movie is starting."

I follow her as she walks faster, questions just running through my head. Why am I doing this? I know that the gods are abusive but not to the point of actual abuse. Who am I doing this for? For myself, my family, my other cousins and brothers who were wronged? Gods, is what I am doing even right? I want to fight for the freedom of demi-gods but won't that just make me an oppressor as well? Heh, I guess my conscious is finally catching up.
