Percy: I am really glad that you put me with Reyna.

Me: So you don't hate me anymore right?

Percy: No.

Me: Good.

Everyone else: *claps*

Leo: Has your real self truly come out?

Percy: ….

Me: I think it has.

I hope you enjoy this chapter! Also, there was a sentence that I didn't really mean, it was just an insult to Octavian.

Sorry for not posting yesterday, I had too many things: class, friends over.

Reyna POV

"Octavian, for the tenth time, no!" I yelled as he walked in.

"But can't you see I am better than Jackson? I am Roman, handsome, strong, and praetor worthy!"

"Go away now!" I shrieked, forcing my knife under his chin. Octavian smirked, grabbed my blade, and bent it in half. What the heck?

" Aurum! Argentum!" I called, and as soon as I said that, he was sent running.

"Reyna, I need to tell you something." Percy shouted, running to me.

"Percy, what is it?"

"Lupa, for some reason, let's us in a break. I want to visit my mom and Paul, and my sister. (Remember? No? It is in the Hidden Oracle, Trials of Apollo). Please? Frank and Hazel are filling in our places at the same time."

"Why not?"

Percy grinned.

"I thought you would say that. Our flight is in three hours, and Zeus let me off for flying. We should hurry. Bobby (In Camp, not sure if he is mentioned in the books. I couldn't find him, but on the information page online, he is there.) is sending us to the airport."

I ran quickly to my home, and packed a few things that we needed.

"Reyna! There is something I forgot!" Percy yelled, running after me.

"What is this?" I asked as Percy handed me a pouch made of purple velvet.

"One of the daughters of Trivia gave me this. She wasn't running after me, but she said this is enchanted with a spell to hold weapons and not get detected. It magically expands inside as you put things in. The pouch also doesn't change size from the outside. It is also unbreakable. Only the owner and anyone the owner allowed can take things from it."

"We should get going."

I looked at my suitcase, the only one I owned, from C.C's island. A small 2 ft by 1 ft, full of clothes. I grabbed my pouch, and put some important things like my dagger and spear. I think that would be enough. I ran outside, and I found Percy waiting.

"We have to hurry, our flight leaves in two hours, and it takes around 45 minutes to get to the airport! Then we have to go through all of that stuff…"

"How do you know all of this?"

"Bobby told me!" We ran to where Bobby was waiting, and we started to head to the airport.

~~I don't really know how to deal with this…. They are at New York, very close to where Percy fought Ms. Dodds~~

"That is where I fought one of Kindly Ones. She posed as my math teacher, and I dispelled her for a bit using my pen." I whispered to Reyna as we were in the taxi, and I pointed to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Finally, we made it to an apartment building.

"We live up there. I haven't been home since I left. It has been so long." Percy murmured staring up at a large apartment building.

"Percy, I really can't wait to see your mom!" I cried, and Percy pulled me through the maze of walls, doors, and elevators. We arrived at the top floor, and there were only two doors there. Percy pulled me into the left one.

"Mom!" Percy called. A woman appeared, and she looks as young as 25.

Percy POV

"Oh, my, god. Percy, my baby." Mom ran right to me, and crushed the air out of me. She looked a bit teary eyed, and I admit, I teared up as well.

"Mom, this is Reyna Avila Ramírez Arellano, my girlfriend." I said, walking over to Reyna. Mom smiled.

"Sally, what is… Oh, Percy and someone else." Paul called, poking his head around the corner.

"Paul!" I said, giving my step dad a handshake.

"Percy, who is this?" Paul asked.

"This is Reyna Avila Ramírez Arellano, my girlfriend. She is from the Roman Camp." I said, and Reyna looked at me like How does a mortal?

"Nice to meet you Reyna." Paul said, shaking hands with Reyna.

"Reyna, so you know that this is my mom, Sally Jackson. This is my step dad, Paul, and I have a little sister who was born when I was away." I said.

"Percy, we have decided to name our little girl Amanda. She is such a sweetheart." Mom said.

"Mom, what do you think of me and Reyna being together?" I asked.

"Percy, well first, how did you and Annabeth break up?" Mom asked.

"Mom, so I was away from Camp for three months to go on a quest to prove my worth for Annabeth. I passed the test, and I bought a ring for Annabeth. So, I came back to Camp, and she suddenly broke the news that she left me for Jason. I got a bit upset, so I came to Camp Jupiter." I said.

"At the same time, I didn't know why Jason as praetor was acting so childish. He was neglecting his duties, and doing things that he wasn't supposed to do. So Rome removed him from the position, and that was about when Percy got here. He became praetor, and we sort of fell together, and while we just started, drama was rolling around." Reyna added.

"Percy, that is so cute! Of course I approve!" Mom cried.

"Perseus Jackson and Reyna Avila Ramírez Arellano, your presence is required on Olympus." someone said, and Hermes appeared in our living room where we were talking.

"Mom, I will see you, Paul, and Amanda later!" I said cheerfully, before taking Reyna by the hand, and Hermes teleported us to Olympus.

"Are you sure this is a good idea? They are still very young!" We came into the throne room to see Dad and Zeus discussing about an idea.

"Dad." I said, first bowing to Zeus, and then kneeling at Dad's feet.

"Rise, we have something important to talk to you about." Dad said, and I stood there, Reyna clutching my hand.

"The council has decided to make you are very first personal assassins, trained to try to dispel His forces." Zeus announced.

"Uncle Zeus, who is He?"

"My great grandfather. (AN: Its Chaos, and did I get that right? Please PM me if that is wrong.)"

I looked at Reyna, and she nodded.

"We accept." Reyna said, still holding my hand.

"You will be immortal, but will die in battle, like the Hunt. However, you will receive blessings from us to aid you." Artemis said, telling us basic information.

They started chanting, and I could barely understand the very ancient Greek language. Here are what they blessed us with:

Zeus: power to create lightning and storms

Hera: I couldn't tell

Poseidon to Reyna: power over water, ability to heal with water

Demeter: power over crops

Ares: great ability to fight

Athena: power of wisdom, better battle strategy planning

Apollo: power of healing

Artemis: increased stamina, grace, ability to shoot a bow

Hephaestus: Slight power over fire

Aphrodite: Ability to charmspeak, change appearance at will

Hermes: Speed when traveling

Dionysus: Ability to drive anyone mad

Hades: Slight power to raise the dead

Hestia: Power to summon food

That was a lot. I could feel myself absorbing the blessings, slowly becoming more powerful.

"We need to give you code names. Percy, Reyna, you choose." Dad said.

I thought about it for a moment, then it hit me. Bayou (AN: I know, its a girl name. But why not for a code name?)

"Well, have you gotten it?"

"I will be Bayou." I said.

"I would like to go by Queen." Reyna said.

"Very well, you may go."

"Uncle Zeus, can I speak privately with Lord Poseidon?" I asked. He nodded, and flashed out of the room.

"Dad, I need to talk to you."

"Percy, what is is?"

"What do you think about my relationship with Reyna?" I asked, "Mom approves."

"I think that it is very nice."

"Dad, thank you." I walked out of the throne room, and I rejoined Reyna just outside. As I walked, I heard a jingle, and in my pocket, there was a pouch, and in that pouch, there was a note.

Percy, this pouch has 600 small drachmas, each small one worth two regular ones. Use it wisely.

Poseidon

I grinned, I know just the right one.

"Reyna, will you wait for me at the elevator? I need to get something."

(AN:Yeah, yeah. Don't think I am crazy. Percy has more experience. Also, if he is working as an assassin with Reyna as a partner, why not officially make them partners?)

"Percy, just don't do anything stupid." Reyna called as I walked to a shop.

"Ahh, sir, what can I do for you?" a worker asked.

"I have come to look for an engagement ring. I would like one that could be perfect." I said, and he brought me to a glass case. I looked at all of the rings, and out of all the ones, this one caught my eye. It was a beautiful Athenian Silver, like the Mark of Athena, and the amethyst was set with tiny blue green gems around the larger amethyst. That is perfect for us, combining the color of the sea with the position of a praetor.

"How much will that cost?" I asked, pointing to the one that caught my eye.

"That will cost 1,200 drachmas." he said, and I handed him the pouch full of the smaller drachmas, but I kept the note.

"The small ones. I could tell there are 600 of them. Here is your ring." he said after I payed him. The ring was set in a light purple ring box, and it looked perfect. I know Reyna is going to love it.

"Reyna!" I called, running to her.

"What took you that long?" she asked. I grinned, and my hand was in my pocket, preventing any theft of the beautiful surprise.

"What time is it?" I asked.

"Percy, you were gone for about one hour. It is 5:30 right now."

Wait, should I wait? I asked myself.

No! I have to do it now! This might be my last chance. I want her to be with me before we officially start on our new job. I countered.

"Percy." Reyna's voice stirred me from my thoughts.

"What?" I asked, a bit dazed from by thought.

"You were staring at me for a long time, and you were silent. You kept on fumbling with the thing in your pocket." Reyna said. The elevator dinged, and we stepped out.

"We should get back home." I said, and we started to walk.

Jason POV

I walked into Camp to be greeted by an army of angry demigods.

"Hey, why are you all angry at the camp leader?" Annabeth asked.

"Who said Jason is Camp leader?" Clarisse retorted.

"I said." I answered.

"We never agreed. Who knew Jason Grace would be so pompous. Who knew one of the saviors of Olympus would be such a tyrant." Will said, and everyone started giving me a death glare scarier that Nico. Uh oh, this can't be very good.

"Even Chiron opposes your idea." Clarisse said, and I suddenly became very unhinged. I drew my sword, and charged at her. The others drew their weapons, nocked arrows, or prepared to throw a spear at me. Soon enough, I had at least 30 things pointed at me. I looked at Annabeth, and we started to run.

"Should we tell them? I mean, it would scare them to not wanting to defy us." I asked.

"No, they should find out by themselves. Let's see how they find out." Annabeth answered.

Reyna POV

"Sally, this food is great! Thank you for this!" I cried.

"Reyna, told you this will be amazing." Percy said, playfully punching my arm.

"Oh, it was nothing." Sally said, blushing.

"Mom, other than Amanda, what has happened around here while I was gone?" Percy asked.

"Annabeth and Jason have tried to take over Camp. Even Chiron says no." Sally said, making Percy almost fall out of his chair in shock.

"Wh..what happened?!" Percy spluttered.

"Something happened, and Clarisse IMed us. Yes, she has met us." Sally said.

What in the world has gotten into these two? I always knew them as very sensible people, and now they try to be tyrants?! I though.

"Mom, it is snowing!" Percy cried, looking out the window. I smiled, and I suddenly remembered the date. It is December 22, a few days before Christmas.

"Reyna, Percy, do you think you are too old for Christmas presents?" Sally asked.

"No, I still have a childish spirit that I never show." I answered. Percy just shook his head.

"Mom, could you send us to Central Park? I would like to show Reyna around one of the most famous places in New York City." Percy requested. Sally nodded, and Paul took Amanda to bed.

"Come on, we will take Paul's car there." Sally lowered her voice, "Then, we could go Christmas shopping if you want."

I grinned, and so did Percy. Sally smiled, and we walked to the elevator to get down.

"What other things have happened?" I asked.

"There has been reported that a level four hurricane has struck Florida. (AN: Yeah, Hurricane Irma, just whatever alright? I know it is recent, but let's have a moment of silence to those who got injured, and hope they recover. Including those who got hurt in Hurricane Harvey.) I think one of the older demigods in Florida may have provoked you father." Sally said.

"Mom, is my financial savings account still there? With the Lotus card?" Percy asked.

"Yes, why?"

"Percy, what is the Lotus card?" I interjected.

"Long story. Long story short, I had to rescue Uncle Zeus' lightning bolt, and Annabeth, Grover, and me accidentally wandered in. It has infinite money, but I haven't used it in years." Percy answered.

"Percy, are you planning on using it for the Christmas shopping?" Sally asked, and Percy nodded, "We could go get it first."

"Mom, I plan on taking Reyna," Percy whispered something to Sally.

We finally got out of the elevator, and got to the bank. Percy said a few words, and a little bit later, he got the card.

"Percy, is the next stop Central Park?" I asked, and just as I said that, we arrived.

We got out, and I looked around, and everything was wrapped in white. The branches of the trees, frosted with pure white. I heard clattering, shouts of joy.

"Reyna, you will be going there." Percy said, stirring me from my amazement, and to my horror, he was pointing to the ice skating rink. I took a sharp breath, and Sally laughed.

"Percy is new too." her voice lowered again, "It might be a good excuse to hold his hand."

"Percy, I will go. But if I fall, you will be catching me." I said, and we ran to the ice rink. Percy and I slowly put on our skates, and Sally was watching us, and she was going to take pictures.

"Percy, are you ready?" I asked, and we stepped out onto the ice. I immediately stumbled, and Percy caught me, completely standing there, not a bit of unbalance showing.

"Ice is a form of water." Percy said, shrugging, and he pulled me up.

"How do I skate?" I asked.

"Well first, try to stand without falling." Percy instructed, and I had my hand on the thing that surrounded the rink. Slowly, I started to move forward without falling.

"Great job!" Percy cheered, and suddenly I felt energy and skill flowing to me.

I am transferring some things through the ice to you. It should help you. Percy said in my mind. I smiled. Percy is amazing.

I started to skate forward, and I didn't fall. (AN: I feel like Reyna is a type of person who would learn things fast.)

"I can skate now!" I cheered, and Percy grinned, and hand in hand, we skated around the rink. I laughed, talked, and generally had a great time. This was the most fun I had in years.

"Reyna, we should be going now. Mom might want to hurry the shopping before all the stores close." Percy said. I nodded, and we skated back, and returned our skates.

"Hurry!" Sally suddenly cried, and Percy jumped up, drew the Riptide, and something fell out of his pocket. Sally picked it up, and pocketed it. Percy then blocked something massive, and I finished. Something is going wrong. A beast has arrived.

Well, what do you think happens? I hope you enjoyed this chapter! I am very sorry for not updating yesterday, and this chapter took me so long to write! I hope you enjoyed this, and please review. Make my day better! I will see you guys next time!
