It took me a really long time to finally realize that I missed the killing of Gaea party. Apollo drove me in his convertible to Camp Half Blood, explaining to me the events that followed my "death".

"So, Leo's gonna cheat death, too?" I asked him. "OH MY GAWDS NOW WE CAN BE NEAR DEATH BUDS."

He laughed. "Would you like some matching t-shirts with that?"

"Apollo, I have never been more serious when I say start with the making of those t-shirts."

"So, how much longer?" He asked.

I looked down at the phone GPS. "Five seconds."

SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECH!

He hit the breaks and I flew forward, hitting my forehead on the dashboard.

"Gosh, Apollo," I grumbled, rubbing my head. "I was already killed once today."

"That was two days ago," he replied, already strutting down the hill.

"SAME DIFERENCE!" I shouted, running to catch I'll to him.

"IT'S EMILY!" Conner screamed, jumping on top of me.

I fell down and awkwardly shoved him off. He was probably the best prankster there ever was, and I sucked at finding their pranks, and so I stayed away from the pair whenever they were not together. The other could be setting up for the kill.

"Hia goop face," I said. He chuckled.

"That was two years ago," he said. "I thought by now we'd have forgot about that backfire."

We laughed. Then he noticed Apollo, who waved.

"Oh yeah, Conner, this is Apollo. Apollo, Conner."

Apollo nodded knowingly, and Conner just continued to grin stupidly.

"Ok, Emi, let's get to Camp before they burn a thing for you," Apollo said.

Me and Conner rose our eyebrows, then continued to walk behind him. I was expecting him to take some back route or detour, but he continued to walk strait through camp. Kids gasped and smiled. A few came up to me and gave me a hug. Travis threw a water balloon at me. The Ares kids didn't even sigh this time! Eventually we were at the big house, but all I wanted to do was see my friends. We opened the door and there, to my surprise, sitting at the ping pong table was Chiron, Clarrise, Percy, Piper, Nico, and Jason. They had their backs facing us and only Chiron could see us, but he let them keep talking.

"We need searchers for Leo," Percy said. "And Emily. Dad said that she didn't die fairly. She was killed by nothing but words by someone, and that's against Hades rules of death."

"Leo is going to be fine," Jason said. "Remember what Leo told us? Emi's our main priority right now."

"Yeah," Piper replied. "She saved us from that poison air. If she didn't pass out from her lung damage from obviously being around smokers as a kid, we never would have known."

Lovely, I thought. Some demigods are killed by a Hydra or a titan, but I was killed by gassy air. Wonderful. I should be in the hall of fame.

"Plus she's the only one who agrees to steal me lemon pies, and what am I gonna do without my lemon pie girl?" Clarrise said, snapping me back to reality.

I laughed and the confused group of demigods turned to me. There faces lit up.

"Emi!" They said in unison, then jumped up to hug me. Smiling, they hugged me tight and didn't let go.

"Uhm, guys?" I said. One at a time they let go, and, smiling, began to talk.

"We thought you were gone for good!" Piper exclaimed.

"I was wondering when youd be back," Nico said, smirking.

"If you EVER leave again, I SWEAR TO THE GODS I WILL PERSONALLY KILL YOU," Percy scolded jokingly.

"I want lemon pies," Clarrise shrugged.

"I- we missed you," Jason said.

I smiled. I was still in love with Jason, but it didn't worry me anymore. I would probably be dead before we could have kids or get married. I put it to the back of my mind, along with other cheesy relationships. I was good.

"Chiron," I said, turning to my just teacher. "Is it possible to let a mortal into camp?"

(A/N) okay, I know I said 30+ chapters, but I'm a lyer, as you know from past experience, so there will most likely be about 25 chapters. Luv y'all butts ;)
