"Feelings that come back are feelings that never left"
-Frank Ocean
Percy, or mini Percy, as the demigods kept calling him, was super confused on why in the world he was currently getting hugged to death by a cyclops five times his size. He had even tried sending pleading looks over at the strange girl with electric blue eyes and the boy with black eyes, but they just smiled and ran to hug the cyclops, squeezing Percy to death as well.
"Thalia," Percy heard a voice behind him whisper lightly. Percy turned his head slightly to the side with a wince, seeing Annabeth standing there, her fist clenched, her blonde princess curls swaying slightly in the wind like a floating leaf, while her storm gray eyes locked onto anything in their vicinity, almost as if daring someone to challenge her knowing that she would beat them with a nail clipper and a bendy straw.
Percy didn't know why the girl had to be so pretty because it made him kind of mad when they fought, seeing her pretty face glaring at him, but he chose to ignore that as the moment as Annabeth looked like she was considering stabbing someone to get the answers she wanted. Percy didn't know it at the moment, but Nico was staring at him, knowing exactly where Percy was looking and the thoughts running through his head. It seriously made Nico wonder how in the hell it took so long for Percy and Annabeth to get together. 'Their stubborn idiots that how!" Nico thought to himself with a sigh as he glanced back towards Tyson, seeing him putting down Thalia as gently as he could as Thalia smiled up at him.
Thalia looks back to the rest of the dining pavilions, a grin on her face as she extends her arms dramatically. Nico sighs, knowing exactly what his cousin is about to do next. "Demigods!" Thalia begins her voice full of pride. "I would like to introduce you to one of the best! The sweetest! The number one absolutely huggable cyclops to every exist! TYSON!"
Nico couldn't help but look around him, hearing everyone muttering whispers flying around like messages delivered by Hermes himself as Will smiles, giving Tyson a small wave as Tyson grins back, his one eye blinking at everyone as he sees the looks he is getting from most of the campers, as Nico's mind is already starting to process what is going through all the past campers minds. Why in the Hades is there a cyclops in camp?
Travis smiles as he gives Tyson a small wave as Conner does the same. They had known Tyson for a while now, and the kind cyclops weren't against helping them pull pranks in secret, making Travis grin. Katie was still trying to figure out how the Stoll's managed to get a huge winged shoe with a plant inside of it on top of the Demeter cabin. Travis shivered as he remembered after that Katie had taken to throwing stuff at him and Conner, but he would suppress that memory, pretending that his loving girlfriend never threw a garden gnome at the back of his head.
Annabeth clears her throat once again to get everyone's attention as she turns back to Tyson. "How exactly do you all know a cyclop's again?"
Grover sneered a little at the disain the little Annabeth used on the word cyclops, remembering back when they were younger that Annabeth had a hatred for cyclops and how she had stabbed one in the toe at the age of twelve the same night he was supposed to be getting Annabeth, Luke, and Thalia to camp halfblood.
Leo shrugs. "Tyson is Percy's brother."
"……."
Silence is heard all around the dining pavilion, as even Chiron and Mr. D have gone silent as they stare at Leo as he looks at them confused. "You know," Leo continues even as Grover signals for him to stay quiet. "Cause Tyson is also a son of..."
Before Leo can even think of finishing, a huge scream is heard as Grover looks up, seeing a girl with chopped brown hair and a dagger in her hands. Her eyes seem to change colors every time someone blinks, as Grover tilts his head down to watch as the girl lands directly on top of Leo, sending him toppling to the ground with a groan. "Leo?!" The girl screams hurriedly, getting off the human torch. "Where have you been? Jason and I have been looking everywhere for you!"
Grover raised an eyebrow at the girl, Piper. He had known Piper, Jason, and Leo for a few months now, becoming good friends with them, and he was fairly sure he would have heard or seen if Jason had also fallen from the sky. 'Jason can fly!' Grover thought to himself, Of course Jason wouldn't just fall from the sky; he would probably just catch himself midair and give himself a soft landing. Or well, that's what Grover thought had happened until he heard a loud splashing sound coming from the lake. Grover slowly turns his head to behind him the lake only a few minutes away so that Grover can see it perfectly from his view on the pavilion as he watches his eyes twitching as a soaked Jason grave comes out of the lake, muttering that he wishes Percy was here to dry him off.
Grover didn't know if he was seeing things or if he was really watching Jason, who could use the air to fly, come out of the lake having to have fallen from the air, a stray strand of seaweed on his head as Thalia also stares at her brother for a few seconds, her mind processing what's happening as Grover puts up three fingers, having no doubt what's about to happen next.

And right on schedule, Thalia burst out laughing, pointing at her stapler-eating brother as she fell to the floor, lightly hitting her head on the ground as Jason scoffs at his older sister, muttering, "Tace, truncus arboris." Grover prayed to Hestia, because the other gods are trash, that Thalia didn't understand Latin, as Thalia suddenly stops laughing, narrowing her eyes at Jason trying to understand what he said.
"Hazel translate for me."
"To put it simply, he called you a tree stump."
Before Thalia could even glare at her brother, Annabeth cleared her throat once again, trying to get everyone's attention to get her point across as she narrowed her eyes. "That's not Greek; that's Latin." She said her arms crossed as Grover glanced over at Percy, seeing the small blush on his face as he looked at Annabeth. "Most Greek demigods don't speak Latin, so how can you?"
Piper and Jason shared a glance, probably just now noticing the small versions of their friends as Piper opens her mouth before anyone can stop her. "That's because Jason Hazel Frank and Reyna are Roman."
Once again, silence reigned over everyone as Leo leans over to Piper to whisper in her ear. "We're in the past, Pipes; they weren't supposed to know about the Romans yet."
Piper's eyes widened slightly, her mouth going into an 'o' shape. "Well, sh*t..anyone want pancakes?"
"Can they be blue?" Grover didn't even have to know who that came from as he saw the small Annabeth glare at a certain son of Poseidon.
"THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE WORRIED ABOUT YOU SEAWEED BRAIN?!"
"I WANT BLUE FOOD. DON'T JUDGE ME, YOU SMART ASS!"
Grover only now realized that if they stayed in the past, he would have to put up with another 4 years of the duo arguing while also obviously arguing with each other as he looks over, seeing Thalia slowly also realizing the same thing as they share a look at each other before Grover shivers, having a flashback to his first quest and the first ever migraine of many he would get from Annabeth and Percy as small tears come to his eyes as he puts his hands together, looking up at the sky. "Hestia, save me."
Luckily for Grover since Hestia is of course the only god that doesn't cause them problems, another scream is heard from the sky, and in the next second, a loud scream of, "FUUUUCKKKK." Is heard as a certain daughter of Ares falls from the sky into the lake with her boyfriends in her arms, stopping all conversation as everyone stares at the lake as Clarisse comes out with a furious look in her eyes as she puts Chris down on the ground, both of them soaked to the bone as Chris looks around.
"What is happening?" Chris mutters, looking at all of them, as Clarisse glares instead with a not-so-happy frown on her face. Nico grumbles, crossing his arms once again as he mutters not to use his father's name as a curse. Chris obviously hears him as he corrects himself.
"What the Hera is going on?" Chris looks at Nico, an eyebrow raised as if to ask for approval as Nico nods his head happy with the change as Will smiles.
Chris grabs his girlfriend's hand to keep her calm as he looks at all of them again, still standing on the edge of the lake. "You guys have been missing for hours! Everyone has been searching for you guys, and Annabeth is still trying to keep Percy from going on a rampage!"
Grover raised an eyebrow at that. "What time did Percy wake up?"
"5:00 in the morning, and he's extremely grumpy."
Clarisse nodded her head, turning to glare at the Stolls. "And a certain prank some people left in his cabin isn't helping!"
"Fuck"
