The Argo ll sails after nightfall. We veer southwest until we reach the coast. We then splash down in the Ionian Sea. I felt good to see the ocean.
Percy and I were in our cabin. I was laying on my bed looking at a picture if me and Travis. The Iris messages hadn't been working out here.
"I missed having you here," I say to Percy.
"I though about you every night," he says hanging his head from the top bunk.
I smile a little. I look at the picture of Travis some more.
"How is he?" Percy asks.
"I don't know. Iris message hasn't been working lately. Or at least not well enough. I catch glimpses of him on the camp half-blood live feed from time to time but it only makes me miss him more," I say.
"We found Hermes altar down there. We saw all of the m&m's that conner sacrifices every night," Percy says.
"Do you.... Do you want to talk about it?" I ask.
He hops down from his bunk and sits next to me.
"You don't have to," I say placing my hand over his.
"No, no its.... It's ok," he says.
He starts his story. He talks about falling into the river if lamentation, or the river if pure misery. The drink fire water.They met some empousa and bob the giant shows up.
"Bob? Like the titan bob?" I say.
Percy nods grimly. I hear a knock at the door. Percy stops his story for a second and gets up to answer it. I see Annabeth standing at the door.
"I'm sorry for interrupting," she says, "so just didn't like it alone."
"No actually it's good. I was telling her about... it," he says.
Her face contorts but eventual lands on a kind of forced smile.
"Seriously, you guys don't have to tell me. If it to hard," I say.
"No," she insists.
Percy and Annabeth come back to my bed. Percy sits in between us.
They continue on with the story.
"Oh did you know our swords have a pen mode?" Percy asks.
"They do?" I say taking out riptide and examining it.
"Yah, just put the cap on the back," Annabeth says.
I try it and was pleasantly surprised. They continue the story.
They talk about the message they sent to Conner through the altar and the message they sent to Rachel. They tell me about hyperions bubble that bob destroys.
"Then there were the arai," Annabeth says, "The curses," she shutters.
I hear about the many curses that were inflicted on him. He talks about the curse from calypso and it reminds me I need to tell them about Leo.
To basically sun up the rest of the story they almost got caught by Polybotes, go to a 'good giants ' home to get cured, the death mist lady that ended up being a trap and they almost died once again, Percy controlled poison to destroy the death mist lady, they met Nyx the goddess of night, they found the river of pain, they became like living corpses, they were almost killed by Tartarus himself, and then Dameson and Bob sacrifice themselves to get the two of them back to the surface.
By the ti e they finish their story they were both on the verge of tears.
I move my arm around Percy shoulders. Annabeth puts her hand on mine.
"You two went through so much," I say.
"What's important us we made it," Annabeth says.
I nod, "I need to tell you guys something by the way."
I tell them about Leo and how he acted at the mention of Leo.
"And I'm afraid Leo going to try and go back," I say.
"But you can't," says Annabeth.
"Exactly. I think he's going to die trying. He's been working on some secret project. And he's had a heartsick look in his eyes since he came back from wherever he went," I say.
The two of them mill over the idea.
"Plus how he's acting reminds me of Percy when he was heartbroken about her," I say.
"How do you notice these things?" Percy asks.
"I notice everything. I knew you liked annabeth from like an hour into our second quest. And that you weren't even close to liking Rachel or Calypso like you did Annie. I noticed when switched hair help for goodness sakes," I say, "yet ironically you pay no attention. You didn't notice me feeling hidden or even that I had a boyfriend for six months," I say.
"In my defense the whole camp didn't know about that," Percy says.
"They're not my twin brother," I say.
"Ok, ok you two. Break it up," Annabeth says.
I smile and laugh. We keep talking basically all night. And apparently fell asleep at some point.
The next morning I hear a bang at our door. I roll over and realize Percy and Annabeth must have fallen asleep on my bed too.
"Unexpected," Leo says with a smile.
Percy and Annabeth sits up and rubs their faces.
We get up and join the group at the deck.
Honestly I just had this chapter built in my head and I just wanted to write this. It makes me happy to think about.
