Percy's pov:

By the time we were on deck we caught Jason and Clarisse going at it. Well more so Jason going after Clarisse in a seemingly to kill way and Clarisse looking tired like she's put up with the bullshit before.  My guess is they've sparred some.

"Just stop it Grace. You're out of you're league" Clarisse said

Jason just growled and I felt the cold shivers again.

"Annabeth go tell Piper to charmspeak everyone for Eilodons" I whispered in her ear. "Make sure you tell her to not leave any loopholes"

Annabeth nodded, while Thalia faced palmed at her little brother getting whacked with Clarisse's spear.

"I SWORE YOU WERE AN IDIOT WHEN YOU ATE THAT STAPLER BUT NOW YOURE DAM NEAR AS BRAINLESS AS APOLLO" she shouted

This caused many of the Greeks to break into laughter. "So that's where he got that scar" Travis and Connor laughed. "Oh my gods that's hilarious"

"Praetor Jackson" one of the legionaries asked

"Don't worry it's normal behavior of Thalia and our Grecian kin" I said to them

"A bit mental if you ask me" the legionary responded.

"I didn't say they weren't crazy" I defended, as Thalia slapped her brother. Though after the slap he just looked confused as to why everyone was surrounding him, and Thalia slapped him.

"Now Piper" Annabeth said

"Eidolons come forth and raise your right hand" Piper charmspoke.

"What's that gon...HOLY HERA" Clarisse shouted as Jason, Leo, and Chris rose their right hands. Clarisse started glaring at Chris, "get out of my boy friend or I'll kill you" she stated deathly calm

Chris, well it wasn't his voice but body replied, "I'm already dead but I shall live again"

"Who sent you" Piper charmspoke again

The legionnaires replied "the senate." While Jason, Leo and Chris said, "Gaea"

"You're spirits of the dead" Hazel asked

"Yes girly you should know being a daughter of Pluto but you have no authority over us"

"Return to my fathers realm and swear on the Styx to never leave again" Bianca demanded stepping out from behind Phoebe. The secret weapon of the hunt. Extremely deadly on the battlefield and capable of sending souls back down to her father, who just so happens to be my younger-older sister and the older sister of Thalia's sass padawan, Nico. Who is MIA at the moment.

The Eilodons struggled to remain, "DO AS I SAY" Bianca said a bit louder and Chris dropped to a knee but his eidolon was still present.

"The ghost king is captured" Jason, but not Jason's voice said. "We won't listen to his weaker sister". Well this explains Nico is captured. I feel sorry for the poor souls who captured him or caused his capture. Bianca may not hate males as much as the other hunters. But she is overly dam protective of Nico. She even threatened her own father about giving Nico a sword, and how he was to young for that.

Phoebe held Bianaca back from attacking Jason, and the eidolon spirit inside him.

"Do as Bianaca says" Piper charmspoke again. "She's a lady of the underworld you are bound to obey her"

"Return to the dungeons of my father's palace and await punishment" Bianaca said again more forcefully. "Swear on the Styx to never come back to the land of the living nor possess another again"

Chris's eidolon did as asked.

"Do as she says" Piper charmspoke again, but with more force behind it.

Jason and Leo ended up doing the same.

All three boys were confused as to what happened, and Chris was confused as to why Clarisse was punching him saying why did he have to go get his stupid ass possessed a second time.

Once everything calmed down, the living arrangements were given out and Clarisse glared at her two Roman siblings. "Try anything non siblingly and I'll toss you to the hunters" Frank nodded rapidly, while the other Son of Mars followed Franks actions. "Good we won't have any problems then. Bunk up we'll take guard at first light" Clarisse ordered to her cabin mates, and the Romans.

"Reyna but more violent" I heard the sons of Bellona whispering to eachother.

The others also headed off to bed and I made sure Annabeth, Thalia, and the little ones were asleep before I joined Zoë on a night shift duty.

"They're asleep" she asked me.

"Peacefully " I said

"That's good" she said guiding me to the bow. After a few minutes of silence Zoë spoke up, "how long"

"It started after I reached New Rome a week or so ago" I said

Zoë sighed, "how much can you see"

"Small flecks of gold. Not visible to an untrained eye" I replied, "been coughing it up mostly"

"And"

"Yes I've been hearing a voice in my head that's me" I answered before she asked

Zoë enveloped me in a hug. "It'll be ok little brother"

"I've already soloed a giant" I whispered.

Zoë just looked at me more worried. "Try to keep your powers to a minimum. The more you use them."

"I know Zoë" I said returning her hug. "If l...if I don't"

"You will" she said annoyed at me

"If I don't. Can...can you keep Annabeth and Thalia safe please" I asked of my sister. She knows I love them. By Chaos she even teases us about it.

Zoë pushed me to arms length and looked me dead in the eyes studying me. "I'm sorry for blessing you without your permission" she said "it's my fault this started" she started tearing up and going on about the fragility of my mortal state.

I pulled my sister into a hug. Though I guess her blessing helps me understand why her new found strength hasn't been bothering me. "When" I asked

"After the ceremony. I asked mom if she'd be ok if I blessed you as a thanks and she said yes, and" Zoë started rambling

"Shhh it's ok sis." I whispered in her ear.

After Zoë eventually calmed down. "In other news we will have to pass a certain small dicks island to enter the ancient lands" I said

"Don't remind me"

"We could humiliate or kill him and just pass by without getting his permission"

"Your compatriots aren't the murderous type little brother" Zoë reminded me. "Four green horns, and a conglomeration of Roman and Greek veterans. It's hard enough to keep them civil as is. Killing a god revered by the Roman's and formerly beloved by the Greeks won't help"

"He'll do more harm to the family then good if he refuses us passage. I'll stay my blade till he refuses us passage, you politician" I joked with my sister who is not known for thinking before castrating all that well.

"Call for me once he's subdued then. The hunt will have their revenge"

"The hunt or you" I asked

Zoe ignore me and turned a cold shoulder. She does this occasionally when she's deep in thought, and usually when it concerns topics of taking unpopular but just action.

I got a tap on my shoulder. "You should get some sleep lil bro. I'll keep Zee company" Phoebe said

Somehow two hours have passed and I was relieved of my night watch duties. I returned to the room to see Bianca pacing outside the room.

"What's the matter Bee" I asked

"Nico. He's"

"I know. We'll find him"

"I want my little brother back" she cried

"Bee. He's stronger than you think. He'll survive. We'll find him wherever he may be. And we'll free him."

Bianca calmed down a bit, though I can still sense that she wouldn't forgive herself if anything irreversible happened, and a slight murderous intent to whoever did this to her brother.

I however, went into the room and promptly fell asleep on the floor between the tent my sisters were in, and the bed Thalia and Annabeth were on. Talk about having a long day, and to imagine it started in New Rome.

Me: MUW HAHHAHHAHAHAHAHA I LEFT YOU WITH THE THING YOU DESIRE. PERCY FIGHTING JERKULES.

MUW HHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHH

Maybe this is how uncle Rick felt after he left us with Percabeth falling into Tartarus.

Maybe I should release that. Hmmmmmm
