Anyone who knows Arya Jackson for more than five minutes knows her opinion of the world, and demigods not so fair place in it. Unfortunately, since the war Arya isn't that easy to get to know. To most she's little more than a legend.

THE NEED FOR A CHAPERONE
ARYA DIDN'T HAVE TROUBLE FALLING ASLEEP after her time with Ace. She did however know as soon as the voice started calling her out of her slumber that she had not gotten near enough hours for her to feel good.
"Arya!" She knew by both the voice, and the fact that it was a good distance away, that it was Jason.
She groaned and pulled the blankets up over her head. "Go away."
"No, you really need to get up now." He said, this time she could hear the panic that he was trying to keep out of his voice.
So, of course her feet were on the floor without a second thought, "What is it?"
"Percy and Annabeth." Jason said, "We can't find them."
Arya was out her door in record time, shoving past Jason. Both Percy and Annabeth's doors were cracked open but neither one of them were found in their beds. She knew Jason wouldn't have woken her if he hadn't checked all the usual spots. She turned around to see the remaining crew standing, waiting.
"Why are you all just staring at me?" Arya asked in a tone far harsher than she had meant for it to come out, "We need to check every square inch of this ship!"
Before her frustration could explode out of her in a physical storm Leo stepped in front and started to split everyone up. It took until everyone was out of her sight for Arya to realize her body felt like it was giving up on her.
Arya's chest got tight and her head felt like it was pounding. Even though her vision wasn't at 100% she continued to move her feet, going into every single door. Checking behind every single piece of furniture that was large enough.
She was vaguely aware that people tried to talk to her but she couldn't hear anything being said, her thoughts only on Annabeth and Percy. Arya swore if Percy and Annabeth had been taken again she would reign down a fire far worse than anything Kronos had threatened. She wasn't going through this again. This wasn't going to keep happening.
Arya was stumbling now too. Her body being held up by the wall in the spare parts room.
There was a figure in front of Arya. Piper. Her hands were up, her lips were moving. It took a lot of energy for Arya to decipher what she was saying. "Frank and Ace found them."
