*Four months later*

(Leo's POV)

I smiled at Rocky and Jason, they smiled back. It's been four months since we came home from our first quest together. We really were a great team. I was fixing Festus' head while my siblings, except Rocky, were putting the body of the boat together. Rocky and Jason were wiring and putting the control panel together.
Annabeth was working on our route to Camp Jupiter. Since Jason's memory has gotten better, he's told us where the Camp was. Annabeth has been coming up with ways to fly into the Roman Camp without getting shot down. One way was a video scroll that Rocky and I came up with.
The other way was Annabeth's idea. She created a white flag that said 'We Come In Peace' after she turned down mine and Rocky's idea. Our idea was paint the bottom of the haul and write "WASSUP?" Jason didn't really help. All he did was roll on the floor, laughing. Hey, it was a better idea in our heads.
Annabeth figured in two months we would set sail for California. She literally made a count-down sheet til two months were up. I wasn't bothered by it at all, her boyfriend was at this camp. To be completely truthful, I couldn't argue anyway, Annabeth scared me. Rocky didn't mind either, she thought it was so cute.
Rocky and Jason came over to me with big grins, they were covered in grease, dust, and dirt. Jason had his arm around Rocky's shoulders. It's been nearly five months since they started dating. To be honest, I hoped they would last alot longer. That would be cool to have my best friend as my brother-in-law.
"We finished wiring and building the control board." Jason said with a smile, Rocky rolled her eyes. I had to chuckle, "Why is my sister rolling her eyes then?" I asked, teasingly. Jason raised an eyebrow, "Oh? I wonder why as well."
Jason's hair has grown out more, more messy. Not like that haircut he had when we first met. He's kind of calmed down more as well. I guess Rocky has calmed him down as well. He seems more... Relaxed.
Rocky has controlled her powers so she didn't have to use her amulet anymore, but we keep it, just in case. She has the same problem as me, which is we are more ADHD than alot of kids. It's basically like giving a ADHD kid a ton of sugar and coffee. Her hair has grown as well, and she braided little parts in her hair. Something that Mom use to do when we were little. She looked like Mom in certain ways, but she was Roxanne Valdez alright.
I was glad that these two were my best friends and closest family. They really make me feel like I belonged, like I actually have a role in life. Not just a role in some great prophecy. They really changed my ways of thinking... somewhat. *smirk*

(Annabeth's POV)

I sighed as I crossed off another day on the sheet. Soon, just soon, I would see Percy again. Watching Rocky and Jason really made me depressed lately. I missed Percy so much. I told Mrs. Jackson and Paul about what is going on at Camp.
She was delighted to her that her old Rocky found Camp Half-Blood, got claimed, was reunionited with her twin, and has a boyfriend. Sally was extremely happy when I told her that we knew where Percy is. Afterwards, when I came back to Camp, I sat on my bunk, staring at a picture we took together, with Grover and Thalia.
I remembered Luke, how I tursted him and actually had a crush on him. I did miss Luke, but he was like a brother to me. He cared for me and Thalia. I was glad he was in a better place. I put the picture back on the wall and walked back to Bunker Nine.
Leo, Rocky, and Jason were talking and laughing. I missed it when Percy, Grover and I would do that, except it would be me calling Percy 'Seaweed Brain' or Grover laughing at my expression when Percy was joking around.
I couldn't wait to see Percy. I tensed when I felt the coin in my pocket. The exact one that my mother gave me when I last saw her. It appeared in my pocket like Percy's sword did, no matter how I try to get rid of it. It reminded me that I also had a side-quest. 'Follow The Mark Of Athena. Avenge Me.' I gulped and tried to forget. It pained me.
I felt a tap on my shoulder and looked up. Rocky looked at me with a worried expression, "Come on," She said in a gentle voice. "We're gonna head back to Camp for dinner." I nodded, holding back tears. All of the workers walked back together, another successful day on the ship, and another day checked off... Til I saw Percy again.
