He had been waiting for the moment to happen, when he would meet Piper, playing the scene over and over in his mind. He would go to her cabin and tell her that he was her brother. Then Piper would hug him and tell her how much she loved and missed her brother.

But that's not what happend; she HATED him, loathed him. She would barely even talk to him and now even Reyna was mad because he forgot to tell her he was leaving the camp. He had tried to explain but Piper had just gotten madder. He was about to leave when Chiron came and asked him if he could stay for dinner. He had agreed even though he didn't really want to. Now he was sitting at the Aphrodite table which wasn't a good thing with Piper glaring at him every 5 seconds.

"Hey Piper?" he called softly.

"What do you want?" Piper didn't even look at him.

"I-I'm sorry for keeping staying from you."

"Parker Mclean," Piper sighed. "If you tell me the reason you hid from me, I'll forgive you."

Parker flinched. He didn't really like his last name. If he told anyone his last name they would think he was amazing and would treat him different. It was hard enough being the son of Venus; people thought he was handsome already, but with a dad that's a famous movie star. He felt sorry for Piper. She grew up alone, but he always had Camp Jupiter.

"Pipes, I'm so-"

"Don't call me that," Piper snarled. She stood up and walked away from him to go to bunker nine.

Parker sighed. He got up and followed Piper. Percy Jackson was gone. Parker's heart skipped a beat as Piper gasped.

"Annabeth!" Parker yelled. Parker ran around until she found Annabeth crying by the lake. Leo, Hazel, and Frank were standing by her side.

"Percy…" Annabeth sobbed.

"What happened?" Parker demanded.

"Percy asked us to get him to the lake." Leo replied.

"And you listened to him?" Piper asked, outraged.

"He was back," Annabeth trembled. "We brought him here. He asked me to…"

"Kill him," Frank finished. "Then he ran away."

Annabeth kept crying louder.

"Oh I am...so sorry. "he murmured.

Annabeth just cried louder.
