I wasn't exactly sure where I was, I mean yeah I could tell it was a dream and all, but I never actually have been here before, it was dark and moist and my feet kept walking towards a cell of some sorts. There I saw Reyna and someone chained together by their hands and feet but the weird thing is that his eyes never blinked, and a necklace that was placed on him radiated an aura of fear and darkness. I saw as they conversed until an annoyed Reyna left and he was alone, he kept looking towards her as she left and immediately looked towards me

"You can't win this one little hero" he said as the dream ended

"Elllo- hello? Oh good, you're up!" I groaned as I saw Reyna waving her hand at me, I looked around to find myself. It seemed like a home, it had a nice cozy feeling with a fireplace and a fountain. I looked over to Reyna to see her with an annoyed face as if she's been waiting for me to wake up.

"Hey reyna, should I be bowing or something" Once I finally got out of her couch I gave her mock bow much to her annoyance and she did something that surprised, she gave me a hug; which coming from her was surprising at times but it felt warm and I fell into her embrace and hugged her back, after a few seconds she let go and I could see her eyes watery.

"I thought you died idiot you were laying down for two days" I felt bad for worrying her, I know that a lot of Romans were lost in the war and must've taken a toll on her, and I felt more bad for never checking up on her.

"It's gonna take a lot more than some overgrown dummies to kill me", at that I heard noise outside at the door as Reyna sighed and looked over to the door as well.

"A lot has happened since the war and since luckily your awake I can prove that your innocent", at that I got nervous and instantly paled, I assumed immediately that the Romans were gonna kick me out and Reyna noticed and her eyes showed sympathy

"Percy? Is everything okay? I know you haven't done anything and if the see your here and not in the dungeon their gonna believe you." I sighed since I knew I had to tell her.

"It's just, something happened at Camp Half-Blood and I feel like it's gonna happen again.", I told her the story at Camp about the blaming and the Big House burning, I told her I ran away from them into the sea. I could tell she was paying attention she told me of the situation a few days back where a masked man came into the city and killed five romans, and then surrendered to Frank and after taking off the mask it was shown to be an exact replica of Percy, except having black eyes instead of green, at this many Romans began disliking me, with only Frank, Hazel and her trying to prove my innocence.

"We can try to figure this out later, but right now we have to prove my innocence, you said that they'll believe you if I walk out of here right?", at this she nodded

"They all know that currently the imposter is in the dungeon, I just had a chat with him so they know that if your here than your the real Percy"

"You guys have a dungeon? That is so cool" she rolled her eyes at my remark but opened the doors as I saw 300 hundred romans outside the house. It was quiet at first until Reyna began to speak

"Fellow brothers and sisters, I promised you the innocence of former Praetor Jackson and here he is in the flesh. He has told me that the greeks have had a similar incident and he himself and prove it", she looked over to me and beckoned me forward, as I recounted the same story I told Reyna, with many gaining looks of confusion, but after I mentioned I was kicked out by the Greeks their faces looked mad at the idea of it. After I finished a loud cheering began as many celebrated my innocence. I saw as Frank walked over towards me, he looked a bit shy but Hazel came towards him and they walked together (they make such a cute couple)

"Praetor Zhang, Centurion Levesque, it brings me honor to see that you both helped to prove my innocence", I mocked, bowed and Hazel rolled her eyes and Frank chuckled.

"Thanks Percy, you know we're always with you, but no I stepped down from my Praetor status, since our centurion of the first cohort was killed, I went to cover her role" I was surprised to say the least but nodded nonetheless.

"Percy, since you're back in New Rome are you going to become Praetor again? Reyna needs a partner you know", now I know Hazel probably only meant it as a Praetor partner, but the way she looked at Reyna made me blush and I saw Reyna blush as well. But I also saw her eyes show hope in me taking up Hazel's offer.

"Well ummm if Reyna thinks and you know if the senate-"

"Well- if it isn't the little hero finally awake"
