Alexandria Olympia and The Muses Wrath (PGO & HOO Fanfic) [Stopped]

Chapter 17: Gone with the Wind, Literally

The sun started to come down, everyone was tired. We were in the forest, we've been riding on the pegasi for hours. We landed in some clearing.

Jason suggested, "Let's make camp for the night."

"Yeah, that would be best." Fern agreed. "It's getting dark soon."

Piper groaned, "I'm starving."

Leo gave a mischievious grin, "Chef Leo, at your service.

He started to set up a portable grill. He whistled a tune as he cooked.

Piper nudge me as we sat by the fire. "So what are you thinking?"

Wanting to save my words, I wrote on my portable whiteboard. I then handed it to her.

It took her a while to read it then she read aloud, "I'm still a mute, what do you think?"

She looked at me. "You know I didn't mean that. I mean the idiot cooking us tacos."

I looked at Leo and crossed my arms. I am not having this conversation.

"If you're going to be this diffucult, I'm taking away your whiteboard."

I tried to grab it from her, but she held onto it protectivly. I gritted my teeth, whatever. I'm not going to die without it. I stick my tongue at her then walked over to Leo.

"Hello, hello, hello," Leo said with a grin. "What you want on your tacos?"

I wanted to say tomatoes, but I didn't really want to waste my words. Leo noticed and apologize.

"Sorry, I forgot."

I waved him off that it's okay. He then smirked like he had an idea.

"How good are you at charades?"

I punchws him on the shoulder.

"Geez, it's a joke." He muttered. "Just point what you want."

I pointed at the tomatoes, onions and the tofu.

"Nice choice ma'm. May I interest you with my famous brown rice? It's quite popular."

I smirked and gave a nod. After a satisfying dinner, everyone drifted off to sleep. All except me, but who can? I'm going to do a sing-off with the muses, not something anyone would just up and volunteer. I got up from my sleeping bag. I'm to worried to be asleep. I might as well keep watch. I climbed up a tall tree, thanks to the lava climbing wall back at camp.

I heaved out a sigh, the forest is so beautiful at night. A soft breeze came my way, blowing my hair playfully. Then another gust of wind, even more powerful came at me. I had to held onto the branch I was sitting on. That was close, I almost fell off.

"Sorry, got a little carried away, there," someone said to me.

I turned to my left and almost fell of the branch again. Some handsome guy in his early 20's were sitting next to me 20 feet of the ground. He has red curly hair with a tan cowboy hat on top. A laurel wreath surround the hat. He wore a khaki knee length shorts showing a six-pack and brown combat boots. He had a red cloak that hung on his back like Superman. He had green eyes and his face is splashed with freckles, and gave me a million dollar smile.

I was speechless, er, not really literally but well, you know.

"I couldn't help myself," he chuckled. "But you know what they say, you wind some you lose some."

"Uh..."

"This really blows, I didn't even introduce myself," He blushed. "I'm Zephyrus, but call me Zephyr."
