Whoa! There's Two of You!

Jason and Leo were not expecting to meet an alternate version of themselves but... they did.

A normal day at camp half-blood turned into chaos. During breakfast a giant swirling portal opened up a couple yards away. Out of it stumbled two figures, both of whom were very familiar.

There was a Latino boy with dark curly hair and pointed ears. The other boy who was significantly taller had buzzed blonde hair and had a weird aura around him.

They both fell to the ground as campers swarmed around them. When the smaller boy looked up from the ground and caught a glimpse of the other boy he became as still as a statue, his eyes wide as saucers. The taller boy was visibly panicking saying something about how he wasn't supposed to be there.

Nico di Angelo was the first to speak up. "What in the Hades is going on?" He looked around the crowd.

Jason Grace pushed through the crowd and bent down to help the smaller boy off the ground. The boy took one look at him and jumped back, tears in his eyes and shaking madly. Jason stepped back, giving the boy space.

"You," Jason paused. "You look just like-"

"Me." Leo said behind him. He stepped forward and kneeled down cautiously.

The 'other Leo' kept glancing at the blonde boy who was slowly standing up with the help of Will and Kayla. He looked scared. He looked like he had just seen a ghost.

"Hey." Leo spoke softly to him. "Do you mind telling me who you are. I promise we aren't going to hurt you we just wanna talk."

The boy locked eyes with him. "Im Leo Valdez."

Jason put a hand on this universes Leo. "Why don't we take these two to the big house?"

With the new Leo calmed down it was easier to talk to him. Apparently he was just working on a project- very Leo- and had been 'thrown' here. Chiron decided that for now the new Leo would be called Leo 2 and the usual Leo would be Leo 1.

Leo 2 looked at Jason like he had tried to kill him. He stared with such fear it almost made Leo 1 scared.

"Are you okay?" He asked. "You keep staring at Jason like he died or something." He was obviously joking but it made Leo 2 stare back at him with tearful eyes.

"Because in my universe, he did." His voice shook.

Jason was completely still, so Leo put a hand on his thigh to comfort him. Physical touch was always something that calmed the two so it happened a lot.

Chiron trotted into the room they were in. "You two might want to hear about this." He gestured for them to go into the door on his left. The other boy Leo 2 had arrived with was in there.

The blonde boy was friendly and polite. He looked and sounded and acted exactly like Jason. That's because he was. Sure enough there was also a Jason 2. Fun.

After Jason 2 explained to them that he had died in his universe it became clear why Leo 2 had reacted to seeing both Jason's the way he did.

"So..." Leo 1 said, trying to break the awkward silence. "You're us... from a different universe."

Jason 2 and Leo 2 nodded. They had both sat on the same sofa across from the other Jason and Leo but were surprisingly far apart. However Leo 1 and Jason 1 sat so close their thighs were touching.

"And your Jason is alive." Leo 2 said quietly.

Jason 1 nodded. "I still can't believe I'm dead in your universe. I mean I barely survived cargulia so it makes sense, but..." he trailed off.
