The Crown of Ptolemy

Leo ???

Piper not sure what was going on, got up and went outside with Hazel. And what Piper saw at that exact moment, almost made her have a heart-attack.

Right on top of Half-Blood Hill, stood Leo and a girl. Piper would've ran up to Leo and given the biggest hug ever, but then she realized that the girl was there. And she wasn't sure if she wanted to walk up to a stranger.

Annabeth had brought Chiron out to see what had happened. When Chiron saw Leo there, he announced, '' Welcome back Leo, I knew you would make it back.''

Piper found it hard to hold in her joy. Piper scanned the crowd of campers, and saw Jason staring at her nervously. Piper suddenly felt bad, but that emotion was quickly swallowed up by anger. She turned away from him, to find Annabeth walking towards her.

''So tell me Piper, was I right, or was I right ???'' Annabeth asked with a smirk on her face.

THIS CHAPTER IS JASON'S POINT OF VIEW, I FELT LIKE CONTINUING THE STORY, INSTEAD OF LEAVING AT THAT PART.

Jason was pretty sure that his relationship with Piper was going to crumble. He could tell that she was really mad at him.

When the crowd of campers started heading back to their cabins, Jason went up to greet Leo. ''It's nice to see you back Leo, we all missed you.''

Jason turned to the girl and asked, ''Who are you ?'' Her face looked vaguely familiar.

'' My name's Calypso,'' Calypso said, with a nervous grin, ''and you must be Jason.''

Jason's face darkened. This girl knew his name. Had Leo brought home a monster ? Jason wondered. Then it dawned to him. She was the girl who had taken care of him at one point in his life. He was about to say something, when all of a sudden, Percy came out of his cabin, and he glanced over to where leo and Calypso were standing. Then it seemed to Jason that Percy's face was starting to become pale.

''Hi Percy !!!'' Calypso exclaimed.

''Oh, hi Calypso,'' Percy said glancing at Annabeth who was right in the middle of the conversation.

Annabeth's face was unreadable, but it stay like that for long.

She finally asked, ''Percy, you know her ?''

Percy replied slowly, '' Yeah, kind of.''

''And how come I never heard you talk about her ?'' Annabeth asked starting to get annoyed.

'' Uuuhhhh,'' Percy stammered.

Calypso jumped into their conversation, and said, ''Percy fell from the sky onto my island Ogygia, when he blew up the mountain full of Telkhins in your quest of the Labyrinth.''

''Nobody asked you,'' said Annabeth in reply. ''Is this true Percy ?'' ''How come you never told me about that ?''

Percy replied,''Well... I figured it wasn't that important''

Percy looked terrified. Jason couldn't blame him. After all, Annabeth was scary when she got angry.

''What, you figured that it wasn't important for me to know ?'' And with that Annabeth stormed off and left Percy standing wishing he never existed.

Jason broke the awkward silence, and said,'' I don't understand what's going on with them. ''

''What do you mean them ?'' asked Percy a little confused.

Jason replied, ''Well, Piper and Annabeth have been acting the same way.''

'' Maybe it's a girl thing ?''
