The Greek and Roman demigods were fighting an attack at Camp Jupiter together. Piper was fighting hard, her hair was blowing, sweat ran down her face and her armor gleamed. She was fighting well, using a sword to slaughter the enemies, which are the monsters. The fighting ended and the demigods were victorious. Jason felt accomplished. Then he heard a scream. Piper's.
"Percy!" Piper yelled. "Watch out!"
Percy was too slow, he turned around and saw Piper lunging to block the arrow from Percy's body with her own. The arrow sank into her hip. She fell to the ground with a painful gasp. Jason sprinted over to her.
"Piper," Percy said. "You didn't have to do that, why did you risk your life?"
The last thing Percy ever wanted was for another person that was close to him risk his or her life for his own safety. Annabeth had done the same to him when they were battling Kronos.
"Piper," Jason said as he knelt next to her. "What's wrong?" Of course he knew that Piper was injured, but, she acted like the wound on her hip was more painful than the other wounds that she's ever had. Gently, Percy and Jason took off her armor, trying hard not to hurt her. Annabeth ran over. Once the armor was
off, Annabeth checked out Piper's wound. There was a greenish glow to it.
"Gorgon's blood," Annabeth gasped.
Jason looked like he was about to pass out.
"We have to get Piper to Camp Half Blood's infirmary, quick!" Jason said with desperation.
"I can shadow travel you guys there," said Nico, "Will is already there so he could try to help her."
"Let's go." Annabeth agreed.
Nico shadow traveled them to CHB's infirmary and left to leave Jason, Piper, Annabeth, Percy, Will, and Leo alone. Will cleaned Piper's wound, gave it some nectar, and bandaged it.
"It's gorgon's blood," Will confirmed. "I estimate she has about two more months to live, I'm sorry." Will said with tears in his eyes. Jason broke down. He couldn't possibly live without her. Piper was eighteen and she was about to turn nineteen in two months, what a great birthday gift. It was like Oh! What was your favorite birthday gift? "dying". Jason was twenty for about 4 months and he was thinking about their future together. Unfortunately, it was crushed. He didn't want to mope during the two months of life Piper had left, he didn't want to make it the worst two months. So, Jason decided to make it the best.
