A/N: New story I thought of the other day so I decided to go through and start writing. I haven't touched any Trial of Apollo books (Or Blood of Olympus ngl) so whatever happens in that isn't going to be a part of this story. I'll be switching up some of House of Hades too (And pretty much all of Blood of Olympus) Mostly the Tartarus stuff and I might make Reyna's role from that more exciting. Most of the stuff I change will be shown through flashbacks and whatnot. Send reviews if there's any confusion about what I change up so I can answer any questions! Just wanted to get all that out of the way since I read Reyna is a hunter now or something in canon. ALSO I know Aphrodite said she wouldn't find love or something but I'm just gonna be ignoring that. I'll be focusing a lot more on the characters than the action in this one which is a first for me and I'm excited to see what I can write up. Sorry for the super long author's note. I hope you guys like chapter 1.
Chapter 1
Beep Beep Beep
Percy groaned. The alarm next to his bed was loud. And annoying. Percy shoved his pillow over his face but it did little to stop the blaring noise from his alarm clock. Percy's hands groped around his bed before landing on a shoe.
"Where the hell did this come from?" Percy muttered to himself. He then threw the shoe at the alarm clock in a desperate attempt to silence the cursed machine. Unfortunately for the son of Poseidon the beeping continued and he instead heard a thump followed by the shattering of glass. Percy's eyes widened after hearing the glass.
"No no no…" Percy said, throwing the sheets off his body and rolling towards the nightstand. He ignored the beeping of the alarm and instead focused on the picture frame laying facedown on the floor.
"Shit," Percy muttered, praying that nothing happened to the photo. Percy gently picked up the picture frame and turned it over. The glass was shattered but Percy could still make out the image of Percy and his mother.
Percy dug his fingers through the glass, ignoring the small cuts opening in his fingers and carefully pulled out the picture. He placed the photo on the nightstand and finally turned off his alarm. Percy fell back onto the bed, thanking the heavens that nothing happened to one of his only pictures of his mom. All that time spent avoiding technology meant Percy had very few remaining pictures with his mother.
Percy groaned and rubbed his temple. He didn't remember what exactly he'd drank the previous night but it gave him one hell of a hangover. Percy rolled over towards the nightstand opposite of the one with the alarm clock to see a container of Advil waiting for him. Percy reached under his bed for a moment, fishing for a water bottle. Eventually his hands came up with a half drunk bottle which he promptly opened and drank. He opened the Advil, dropping four pills in his hand and tossed them in his mouth before finishing off the water.
After laying in bed for another thirty minutes Percy stood up. He looked in the mirror. He was a mess. His hair was longer and messier than it normally was, reaching down almost to the bottom of his neck. His hair was pointing in all sorts of directions from tossing and turning all night. He clearly needed to shave, currently having more facial hair than he'd had in his life. His body was covered in scars from his many fights over his ten years as a demigod.
Percy laughed to himself. Some hero of Olympus he was. He'd fought giants and titans without fail for years and now here he was. He was falling apart and nothing he did seemed to help. He looked closer at himself, noticing the bags under his eyes that seemed to be getting worse by the day.
Percy turned towards his dresser and looked through it. Eventually his eyes landed on a sea green t-shirt and dark blue shorts. He pulled the shirt over his head and walked downstairs to get breakfast.
Percy's house was nice. Far nicer than anywhere he'd lived growing up and anywhere he'd imagined to live. Leo had claimed it was a house fit for the two time savior of olympus. Leo had even recruited multiple gods to make sure the house was perfect. Percy had told him not to go through the trouble but the son of Hephaestus wouldn't back down.
When Percy had first seen the building he'd agreed with Leo. The outside walls had a cobblestone design with a dark brown wood being used for the roof. There was also a balcony on the back of the building that faced towards the Oregon coast. The house in itself was only a short walk away from the ocean.
The interior was beautiful as well. Whoever was responsible for designing the inside of the house had gone out of their way to make it nice. The stairs were made of a dark wood that led down to the hardwood floor. Percy frowned, remembering that Annabeth had probably played a large part in the designing of his home. He hadn't talked to her in at least three years.
Percy reached his kitchen and began walking towards his fridge. Thankfully for him, it was enchanted to always be stocked with food. It was a little unnerving since the fridge normally knew exactly what he was in the mood for. Before Percy reached the fridge he eyed the clock that he kept on his counter. It read 1:31PM. Percy's eyes widened at that. Did he really sleep in until one thirty?
Percy groaned. He was a mess. He sat down on a chair in front of the counter and laid his head down on the cool granite surface.
Suddenly, he heard a knock at the door. Percy raised his head. The last person to visit was Nico over a month ago and that had just ended with Percy telling Nico to leave him alone.
The knocking on the door grew louder.
"Percy Jackson get your ass out here!" Percy heard the voice yell. Percy stood from his seat and began walking towards the door rubbing his forehead.
"Percy I swear if you make me break down your door I will not be happy!" Percy stopped for a moment, recognizing the voice. It was Reyna. He barely remembered the last time he'd seen her.
After a moment of hesitation Percy opened the door, squinting as the harsh sunlight met his eyes. His headache came back as Percy silently cursed Apollo for making the sun so bright.
"Reyna? Hey, what are you doing here?" Percy asked, trying to force an upbeat tone. Reyna did not look happy. She looked at him with a small frown on her face. Her hair was no longer in its normal braid, instead falling just below her shoulders in a black wave. She wore a purple Camp Jupiter t-shirt and black jeans. Percy didn't see any weapons but he had a feeling that the daughter of Bellona had a few magical weapons hidden somewhere.
Reyna ignored his question and grabbed the back of Percy's collar before pulling him outside. "Let's go Jackson, we have work to do."
"Hey! What the hell!" Percy pulled back but Reyna had a strong grip on Percy's shirt.
Reyna turned to look Percy in the eyes. Her fierce stare was unnerving and Percy felt like he was under a microscope. The daughter of Bellona let go of Percy's shirt and placed her hands on her hips before speaking. "You and I are going on a trip."
"Uhhh, I don't really do trips anymore. I'm retired." Percy waved towards his house. "All my trips are pretty much right here."
Reyna scowled, clearly not pleased with his answer. "Today you're coming out of retirement, I'm either going to drag you out with me or you're going to walk on your own."
Percy sighed, there was no getting out of this one. "I guess I'm coming with you."
Reyna's lips curved upwards in a small smile. "Good."
"So where exactly are we going?" Percy asked, arms crossed. Reyna had practically shoved him into the passenger side of her pickup truck before driving down the road. It had been nearly five minutes and Reyna hadn't said a word.
The demigoddess in question ignored his question before asking her own. "Where is a good place to eat around here? I'm starving."
Percy looked at Reyna, "I thought we were going on some trip."
"Food first Percy," Reyna sighed. "Where are we eating?"
Percy thought for a moment before responding. "Take the next exit and there is a good burger place. It's called Hearthstone Diner. I went there once when I first moved here."
"Sounds good."
Reyna continued driving, following Percy's directions. After taking the exit Percy spotted the sign in the distance.
"Right over there," Percy pointed.
Hearthstone Diner was a small rectangle shaped building. The sign out in front of the building had flashing red lights and underneath the name of the diner the words Best Burgers in the Northwest were written. The roof was red and white and the outside of the building's walls were white with chrome colored pillars. Overall, it looked like a classic diner. Percy sighed, he hadn't been to the diner in months.
Percy was drawn out of his thoughts by Reyna. The demigoddess had already gotten out of the truck and was staring at him. "Are you coming?" She asked, her voice muffled through the window of the car.
Percy sighed and opened his door. There was a small breeze outside which helped offset the late summer heat.
Reyna rolled her eyes, "You have got to be the slowest demigod of all time. Let's go."
Percy's pace quickened as he reached the steps of the diner. Reyna opened the door in front of him and gestured for Percy to enter.
The diner was just as he remembered. Black and white checkered floors with red seats. The walls by the window were lined with booths. On the opposite side of the booths was a long bar. Behind the bar there were various pictures of different people littering the walls.
"Table for two please." Reyna said to the hostess. The hostess looked at her, surprise clear on her face. After a moment the hostess composed herself.
"Of course. Come this way." Percy and Reyna followed the girl and sat down at their directed booth. The girl quickly dropped two menus in front of them before scurrying away towards the kitchen.
"That was odd." Reyna stated.
"Yeah," Percy sighed. "She acted the same way the first time I ever came here. It was kind of weird but that's the weirdest thing I've noticed about this place. Other than that it's just a really good mortal diner."
Reyna was silent for a moment as she studied the menu. She then looked at Percy, disbelief clear on her face. "You're telling me you don't think anything is weird about Zeus's Boomin Burger? Or Apollo's Sunny Side Up Burger?"
Percy scratched the back of his head. "Honestly," He said as he looked down at the menu. "I never really noticed it."
"Oh my gods Percy." Reyna struggled to say through her laughter. Unable to keep talking, Reyna just kept laughing. After nearly five minutes Reyna calmed down enough to wipe the tears that had appeared off her face.
"Are you done?" Percy asked, a small scowl on his face.
"Oh stop being grumpy," Reyna responded. "I'm not the idiot who didn't realize that this was a godly diner. Gods Percy I haven't laughed like that in years."
Percy sighed before looking back at the menu. Now that he thought about it, it did make more sense why the menu had Freshly stocked by the Hunters themselves written at the bottom. Percy looked up at Reyna. She was still reading through the menu.
"Excuse me." A high pitched voice broke Percy out of his thoughts. The hostess was standing in front of the table, her cheeks were tinted slightly red. "Would either of you like any drinks?"
Reyna looked up, "I'll have a diet coke please."
"I'll just have a water." Percy said.
"Perfect. Do you two need more time before you order?"
Percy eyed his menu for a moment. "I think I'm ready. Reyna?"
Reyna brushed her hair out of her face before smiling. "I'm always ready, Jackson." Reyna turned to meet the gaze of the hostess-turned-server. "I'll have the Apollo burger please."
The girl turned to face Percy, "For you?"
"I'll have the Ares Whiskey Bacon Burger." Percy responded, holding up his menu. The girl took the menu and instantly scampered back towards the kitchen.
"I didn't think you'd be getting the Ares burger," Reyna remarked with a small smile. "I heard you and him had an incident when you were younger." Her eyes met his, imploring him to explain what had happened.
"Uhh yeah something like that." Percy shrugged. "It wasn't anything crazy."
Reyna rolled her eyes. "Tell me about it. I've never heard the full story."
Percy sighed. He began explaining everything that happened during his first quest, from his first fight with Alecto the Fury to losing his mother. As he continued he explained his near-fatal fight with the Chimaera and finally his showdown with Ares. Reyna was a good listener, her face barely changing as Percy went through the story. By the time Percy had finished explaining everything the waitress was back with their food.
"Excuse me," The girl started talking, her voice extremely shy. "I was wondering if I could take a picture of you two for our wall."
"The wall?" Percy asked. The girl pointed at the wall of pictures behind the bar. Percy took a moment to look at the pictures. Some pictures looked modern, as if they were taken within the last ten years but other pictures looked ancient. A few of the pictures were just drawings. "Is that a picture of George Washington?" Percy asked, pointing at one old picture.
"Of course!" The girl squeaked out. "We take pictures of all the famous demigods that come here. Oops!" The girl put her hand over her mouth. "I'm not supposed to be going around telling everyone that."
Percy looked at the pictures again. He realized that he recognized many different faces on the wall. Towards the bottom of the wall was a picture of Nico Di Angelo, a rare smile on his face. Slightly to the right of that picture Percy saw a picture that made him gasp. "Is that Charles and Silena?" Percy asked. He pointed towards the picture of a girl with dark hair and a muscular African American demigod.
"Oh yes they were one of the first people I served here. They were such a cute couple." The server responded. She had a small smile on her face as if she was remembering the exact moment she'd met the two demigods. Suddenly she turned back to Percy and Reyna. "So. Can I please have a picture?"
Before Percy had the chance to respond Reyna answered. "We'll do it." Percy turned to look at her and the look in Reyna's eyes made it clear that Percy had better not argue.
"I guess we're taking a picture," Percy said, moving out of the booth. The server gestured for them to stand in front of the bar.
Reyna led the way and pulled Percy's arm to whisper, "You better smile for this girl's picture Jackson." Percy nodded in response.
"Stand right there," The girl said as they reached the bar. She pulled a phone out and pointed it at Percy and Reyna.
Reyna put her arm around Percy before muttering, "Smile Percy." Percy laughed a little to himself before smiling for the picture. Reyna sure could be scary when she wanted to.
"Oh my gods that was perfect!" The girl said. "I'm so sorry for taking up your time, just ring the bell if you need anything!" She pointed at a small golden bell next to the salt and pepper.
By the time Reyna and Percy had sat down, the girl had disappeared. For the next few minutes nobody said a word and simply enjoyed the food.
"So you seem happy today." Reyna looked surprised by the question. To be fair, it was probably the first time Percy had led a conversation today without it being 'where are we going'.
"I can't be happy to see an old friend?" Reyna countered. "I haven't seen you in over a year. You don't visit anymore and apparently nobody can get you out of your fancy house." Percy didn't have a response. She was right. Over the past few months he'd become more closed off and didn't leave much. In his mind, there wasn't any point to going out anymore.
Eventually he said, "Yeah I guess you're right." Percy's eyes shifted down to look at his half eaten burger. Ever since his mom's death and the pit he'd changed. Percy knew it and he knew everyone else knew it. There was nothing he could do to fix it, he just felt broken.
"So," Reyna continued, changing the subject. "Who were Charles and Silena?"
Percy stopped eating a french fry mid bite before responding, "If I tell you I might ruin your good mood, it's not a super happy story."
"I can handle it." Reyna's tone was firm. "You've seen me fight a war, I can handle a sad story."
Percy sighed, he knew better than to argue against the daughter of Bellona. "Charles was a son of Hephaestus and Silena was a daughter of Aphrodite. We always just called Charles Beckendorf since that was his last name. They were both head counselors of their cabins by the time the war with Kronos came around. They both were really big parts of the camp. Just before the battle of New York Beckendorf and I went on a secret mission to destroy a giant cruise ship that Kronos was sailing on. We set up bombs but we got caught before we could escape and Beckendorf blew up the ship with him still on it to save me." Percy's voice got quiet at the end. His sea green eyes darkened as he told the story. "Silena was crushed. I should've been able to save him."
"It's not your fault Percy." Reyna cut in. Percy looked up at her. "I know your fatal flaw and how it makes you feel guilty for everyone around you dying but it isn't your fault. There's nothing you could've done."
"Yeah but-"
"No buts Percy. There's nothing you could've done and that's that." Reyna's words were harsh but her tone was soft and understanding. "Keep telling me about them. We honor our friends by keeping their memories alive."
"Yeah, you're right." Percy looked at Reyna, he'd never seen her so at peace. All of his time spent at Camp Jupiter she was stressed from the upcoming giant war. Every day was spent planning for battle or training. Here in this diner she looked calm and serene.
"So what happened to Silena?" Reyna's eyes met Percy's again. The harshness of her gaze from before was gone and Percy could see her genuine interest.
"Silena came with us to fight against Kronos and his army but the Ares cabin had refused to come. When we needed them the most, Silena dressed up in their cabin leader's armor and rallied them to come help. We had no idea it was her until she was killed by a drakon destined to be killed by a child of Ares." Percy finished the story with a sigh. Those two deaths weighed on his mind more than many others from the Titan war.
"I'm glad you told me about them." Reyna said. "They sounded like heroes."
"Yeah," Percy agreed. "They were."
After that the conversation pretty much ended. Percy finished off his burger and the last of his fries. Despite being named after the god of war, the burger was actually really good. Reyna had finished her burger as well.
Just as the daughter of Bellona finished her last bite the waitress appeared out from behind the bar. She had two plastic cups filled with milkshakes in her hands. She quickly walked towards the table before placing the two milkshakes in front of Percy and Reyna.
"We didn't order these," Percy said, sending an apologetic look to the girl.
"They're on the house," The girl responded, "for two heroes of Olympus it's the least we could do. Also you guys agreed to take my picture!" For a moment, Percy was at a loss for words.
"Thank you," Reyna cut in, saving Percy from any potential embarrassment. Percy gave Reyna a small look of appreciation.
"So that'll be nineteen dollars or four drachma please," The girl said, handing Percy the receipt for the meal. He looked at it. Last time he was here Percy hadn't noticed the drachma section of the tab. He decided it would be best to blame it on his dyslexia.
Percy heard the jingle of coins and saw Reyna giving the girl the drachma. Before Percy could say anything Reyna gave him a quick glare.
"Thank you so much!" The waitress gushed, "Please come back soon! We'd love to have you."
Reyna smiled at the waitress, "We will for sure."
After the girl left Percy turned to Reyna. "You didn't have to pay for the whole meal. You should have at least let me pay for half."
"It's my treat, Percy. You can pay next time."
"Next time?" Percy asked.
"Yes Percy, next time." Reyna rolled her eyes. "You think I'm just gonna let you melt away in that new house of yours. Not a chance."
"I'm not melting away!" Percy protested.
Reyna's nose scrunched up, "Percy trust me, you're melting. Grab your milkshake, we have one more stop." Reyna grabbed her milkshake and made her way to the door. She stopped to look at Percy who was still sitting at the table.
"I'm coming," Percy grumbled. He grabbed his milkshake and took a sip before following Reyna out the door.
"So where are we going now?" Percy asked Reyna, his cup that had previously held a full milkshake was now empty in his hands.
Reyna's lips curved upwards in a small smile. "You tell me, you live here. Where are all the fun places in town?"
"I'm the wrong person to ask about that," Percy responded, "I don't remember the last time I've been to town."
"Fine, I forgot you were boring," Reyna sighed, "Ok son of Poseidon, where's your favorite beach?"
Percy directed Reyna back towards his house before pointing at a one lane road at about the halfway point. After they turned onto that road they drove towards the coast for a minute before Percy saw the dirt road that led right to the beach.
The beach wasn't a large beach compared to the sprawling boardwalk beaches in California. Despite this it had a private charm to it that Percy had loved when he first found it. The beach was shaped in a crescent with about a football field worth of sand before reaching the water. The water was fairly shallow but had a drop off twenty feet out that brought the water to Percy's shoulders. There were a few rocks out in the distance with one being large enough to fit multiple people high enough above the water to avoid getting wet from the water.
Reyna whistled as she got out of the car. "So is this where you spend your time?"
"I wish," Percy shrugged, "I used to come here a bunch when I first moved out here but now…" He trailed off. He couldn't exactly place why he'd stopped coming except there never felt like a point to it. All his life Percy had people to tell him where to do or prophecies to direct him. Now he was just… lost.
Next to him, Reyna took her shoes off and stepped onto the beach. She glanced at the son of Poseidon, her dark hair blowing from the ocean breeze. "You coming?"
"Right behind you." Percy threw off his shoes and followed Reyna. The sand was cold under his feet, as the heat from the sun had long faded. By the time Percy and Reyna had reached the water Percy figured the sun would only be up for another ten minutes. Reyna grabbed Percy's arm and pulled him forwards until they were both ankle deep in the cool ocean water.
"You know I always loved the ocean," Reyna said, "When I lived on Circe's island I would look out at the ocean all the time."
Percy stared at her apologetically, "I'm sorry about all of that. I kind of ruined that island."
"It's in the past Percy," Reyna responded, her tone light, "Plus, I think it's all worked out for the best now."
"Still. I'm sorry."
"Enough of that." Reyna turned away to look at the sun. "This is a nice view of the sunset."
Percy followed her gaze. He noticed one particularly large rock that was raised about ten feet above the water. It was flat on top and had a bit of moss that Percy figured would be a good grip to make sure nobody fell off. Percy turned to Reyna with a grin on his face. The first true smile he'd had in a long time. "You want to see a better view?"
Reyna raised an eyebrow, "You're hiding a better view somewhere?" Percy held his hand out for Reyna to grab. The daughter of Bellona grabbed it and Percy pulled her out towards the water. Percy's smile grew as he saw the look of surprise on Reyna's face when her foot landed on the water instead of going through.
"This is a new trick," Reyna stated, "I didn't know you could make people walk on water."
"It's a little harder when it's not me," Percy responded. The water under their feet moved and Reyna's grip tightened on Percy's arm.
"If I fall in, there aren't any water powers that can save you," Reyna threatened. Percy laughed. He felt great back in the ocean water. He definitely had to come back more often.
The water underneath the two demigods moved quicker through the water before reaching the rock. Percy's brow furrowed in concentration. Reyna glanced at him for a moment before they both felt the water beneath them rise. When the water pillar they stood on reached the top of the rock.
Percy waved his arm towards the rock. "After you." Reyna stepped onto the rock and sat down as Percy followed. The view was stunning. The sun had cast a bright orange light into the sky that mixed with the few clouds that were out. The water was reflecting the orange light of the sun that made it seem like the water was glowing. Reyna was the first to break the silence.
"So," Reyna started. Percy noticed an edge of nervousness in her voice that he hadn't heard all day. "What made you leave?" Reyna wasn't looking at him, her view focused on the setting sun.
It took Percy a moment to respond. "It was just… too much. After the pit… and my mom." Percy's voice broke. He hadn't talked about his mother to anyone in a long time. "I couldn't save her. I was useless. Now it's just, there's no point to it anymore for me. I've fought so hard to watch people die." Percy could feel the familiar feeling of his eyes watering up. He looked down at the rock he sat on, refusing to let Reyna see what he'd been reduced to.
"Percy, it's not your fault."
"It is, Reyna." Percy's tone was harsher than he'd meant for it to be but he kept talking. "I'm the hero aren't I? Isn't that what everyone says? I'm supposed to be able to save people! What's the point of being a hero if I can't protect the people I love?" Percy's voice slowly got louder and the waves beneath him responded, threatening to reach the rock where Percy and Reyna sat. "So many people died during the war with the giants. I couldn't even protect my mom." Percy's voice was quiet now. All that anger he'd had, all that energy, was gone in an instant.
"Percy, look at me," Percy heard Reyna's voice. He squeezed his eyes shut to combat the tears before opening them and looking at Reyna. Her face was calm, with very little emotion outside from the clear concern in her eyes. "What you're feeling is ok."
Percy turned his head back down. He was the slayer of Kronos, and here he was crying on a rock.
"You're going to be ok Percy." Percy felt Reyna's arms wrap around him. "It's all going to be ok."
After a moment Reyna moved back to her original spot and Percy wiped his face, removing whatever mark his tears had left. As he looked back up he couldn't help his eyes being drawn to the final view of the sun as it melted away.
It took Percy a moment before he looked away from the sunset to say anything.
"Hey Reyna," Percy started.
"What's up?"
"Thanks for getting me out today," Percy paused, "And for everything you said. I'm sorry for…" Percy trailed off. He wished he could say more but couldn't find the words to bring out exactly how he felt.
"Don't mention it." Reyna turned and locked eyes with Percy. Her obsidian eyes were reflecting the sun's light. "I've seen plenty of people go through less than you have and come out the other side with a lot less of their sanity. Whatever you're going through now you don't deserve to be going through it alone." Reyna grinned for a moment. "Plus, Nico is going to lose his mind when he finds out I was the one who got you out and about." Percy couldn't help but smile at that, remembering Nico's last visit.
Percy and Reyna sat and watched the sun go down for twenty minutes before heading back to the truck. By the time the two reached the vehicle, there was barely any light left outside. The drive back to Percy's house was quiet. Percy spent most of it staring out of the truck's window, staring up at the rising moon.
The moon was especially bright. Percy figured that it meant Artemis was in a good mood.
Percy was drawn out of his thoughts as the car slowed down and Reyna turned onto the long driveway that led to Percy's home. The headlights of Reyna's truck shined led the way as they pulled up to Percy's house. Reyna unlocked the doors of the car and got outside. Percy followed suit and met her in front of the headlights.
"Hey Percy," Reyna said.
"Yeah?" Percy asked.
"Promise me you'll start working to get better."
Percy turned to face Reyna. Her obsidian eyes were serious as her gaze met his. Despite the hard look in her eyes Percy could see a softness, a side of Reyna that she rarely showed.
"Reyna-"
"It doesn't have to be today," Reyna interrupted, "Or tomorrow. Just promise me that you'll really try."
Percy sighed, she had a point. "Yeah ok. I promise."
Reyna smiled, "Good, I'll see you soon Percy." With that the daughter of Bellona hopped into the driver's side of her truck and turned on the engine. She rolled down her window and waved before backing out, leaving Percy standing alone in the driveway.
A/N: So this originally started as me writing the diner scene as a test run and then suddenly I had 5k words so I'm just kinda rolling with it. Not too sure where I'll be taking it but I like the slower pace with less action tbh. I was definitely a little vague on what went down during the giant war and with Percy's mom (and Annabeth) but all will be revealed in time. Reyna is probably super OOC but I'll be writing in somewhat of a reason for it. At the end of the day I'm not Rick Riordan so everyone is going to be OOC. I'll be back with chapter 2 in a week or so probably.
