Reunited (a Percy Jackson Fanfic)*ON HOLD*

Hazel

With the weekend drawing near, all of us were hustling and bustling around, preparing for our time away from camp. Since Chiron didn't want the whole camp to get the wrong idea, he has made this a pick-up mission. We are going to stay until Monday and go get a new demigod from Goode high school, the high school Percy is going to. I naturally would have been going back to Camp Jupiter with Frank but they need me to control the Mist on this mission. It won't be easy to bend the Mist to make a whole school believe that 7 people that they have never seen in their life have always been there. Even though it will be challenging, it will be nice to have something to keep my mind occupied instead of worrying about Leo and his delusional plan.

Just as I was walking to the Hades cabin to visit Nico, Nyssa, Leo's half- sister came up to me.

"Bunker Nine. Now." Then, she spun on her heel and went off toward the Hephaestus cabin.

When I got to Bunker Nine, a secret underground bunker that Leo found, everyone was already there.

"Here you are Hazel." Nyssa said.

"What's this about?" Jason asked.

"The Hephaestus cabin and I were searching the Argo II and we found something strange."

"Was it dangerous?" Piper squeaked. She was feeling well enough to help plan for the weekend but still looked pale.

"No, but involves all of you. Even Nico."

"What involves me?" Nico shadow traveled in and stood right next to me. I jumped.

"Gods, Nico! Don't do that! I elbowed him in the ribs. He grinned like he was getting away with something that a big brother would do. "Just wait until Will finds out that you are using your Underworldly powers." His face turned instantly pale.

"Anyway," Nyssa continued. "We were searching Leo's cabin and we found a cupboard hidden in his wall. In the cupboard, we found 7 smart phones."

"Hold on," Frank interrupted, " I thought demigods weren't allowed to have cell phones. Doesn't it attract monsters?"

"That's what we were wondering too, Frank." Nyssa nodded. "Then, we did some tests. The material inside the phone was lacking Cobalt, an element in the battery life, and was replalced with a sort of crystal. The thing is, we couldn't pinpoint where the crystal was from..."

"But, no matter what Leo did to them, they are definently safe from monsters. In fact, we took a sample of the crystal and are going to replicate it to make smart phones for everyone at Camp Half- Blood and Camp Jupiter. We have been in contact with Iris and she said that she would sponsor it. Are you familiar with the iPhones? Well ours will be called Iris phones."

"Ok, but what about the first 7?" Percy asked.

"I'm glad you brought that up Percy, it seems that Leo made one for each of you. Your names are engraved in the sides with Celestial Bronze and Imperal Gold. Don't worry though, you can't hurt yourselves. He covered it with a thin plastic layer."

"So, what I'm hearing is that we all get top of the line smart phones?" Percy questioned.

And with that, Nyssa just handed out the phones to us. Nico helped me turn mine on, and Frank promised that he would teach me how to use it later. Once my home screen loaded, I gasped. I also heard everyone else gasp and they had good reason to. Because, staring back at everyone was Leo, with his pointed ears, and his elfish grin.

"He must have recorded this when we were all sleeping on the Argo II." Jason said.

Soon enough, Leo began talking:

"Umm.. is this thing running? Ok, sure. Whatever. Hello my fellow demigods and welcome to the Leo Late Night Show. Brought to you from the boiler room of the prestigious Argo II. And here is your host, super- sized mchizzle, and bad- boy supreme, the one and only, Leo Valdez! So tonight, I am going to talk about my new phone line! It is awesome and you won't get killed every time you get a Snapchat. There, I'm done talking about my new invention. Now, I want to talk to my fellow 7, Percy, Annabeth, Piper, Jason, Frank, and Hazel. And Nico, if you are watching, I made one for you too so don't throw a temper tantrum yet..."

At this part in the video, Nico instantly reddened to the shade of a tomato.

"I just wanted to let you all know , that..."- Leo swallowed- "that even if I'm not with you when you watch this, I love you guys. I'm glad that I met you all. So, signing off for now. See ya." And with that, the screen went black. I then realized that I had been crying. I looked around at my friends and saw that they were crying too, even Nico was wiping his face with his sleeve.

"He always knows-hic- what to do." Annabeth said between sobs. Percy then enveloped her in a hug. Jason did so to Piper and before i knew it, my face was resting on Frank's muscular shoulder. The peace was short lived because then, Clarisse la Rue, leader of the Ares cabin came in and yelled,

"All personel to Thalia's tree now! We're under attack!"
