In honor of Percy's birthday
~oOo~ ~oOo~
Katie Gardner looked around her, panting and perplexed.
The war was over.
Weapons were laid on the floor, while the wind increased and shoved away the dust that pointed out where the enemy was. Soon, and slowly as a snail, the screams of victory and happiness were filling the air. She herself couldn't help but to chuckle and hug her own sister Miranda, who was still shaking with adrenaline, before passing her to her boyfriend, Sherman.
She looked around and saw couples hugging and comforting each other, which made her a little sad. She didn't have one of her own, and so far, she didn't need one. But, that didn't mean that she didn't want one. Suddenly, she was pulled from the floor into a pair of arms and spun around like a toy.
She knew immediately who was it.
"Travis Stoll, put me down!!" she ordered, though the smile couldn't fade from her lips. Travis chuckled and placed her down, before hugging her properly.
"Looks like we're back to our pranking-not-pranking war..." he sighed, also smiling. Katie nodded, thinking that she preferred to fight with Travis over some meaningless pranks than fight a war like this ever again.
"I so prefer that over this..." she admitted it, sighing. She decided that it was getting slightly awkward with him, and began to pull away from him. But, looked like Travis had other plans, as he didn't let her go.
"How about no pranking war at all?" he suggested, surprising her.
"What do you suggest? And, what's the catch?" she asked, raising an eyebrow. Travis smirked and shook his head, denying something "I know you, Stoll... There must be something you want in return. And I won't accept until-" Katie's words were cut in the most unexpected way she could ever think of. A way that made her open her eyes in shock and surprise.
She never imagined in a million years that Travis Stoll would be kissing her.
"Be my girl" he whispered at her, leaving her even more surprised than before. Katie didn't know what to say, but luckily for her, she didn't have to, as everyone was gathering together, not around them, but around the Guards. Moistening her lips, she leaned on his ear.
"We'll talk about this later" she promised him, leaving his embrace and paying attention to whatever the previously known as Guards of Chaos were about to say.
"I know you're tired, hurt and worried about the ones that left..." Percy started, looking at the crowd. He was still wearing his hood up, like the rest, not giving away his identities "But, there's a couple of things left to do, or to tell you... starting with us" Without hesitation, Percy pulled down his hood, followed by the rest of the Guards, earning gasps and more than one fainted, from the ones that didn't know it.
"That was better than expected..." Frank pointed out, in a low whisper. Several heads nodded, before shushing the crowd.
"They will answer your questions later, but we have to look the wounded now!" Nico took the lead, allowing way for the wounded and hurt. Silena was the first one inside the Infirmary, followed by Will.
"I don't wanna see how they will react to the rest now..." Luke voiced out, picking a girl not older than fifteen that fainted when she saw him, and taking her to the Infirmary. Katie's eyes widen and made her way through the crowd.
"We have to alert Camp Half-Blood! We never alerted them-"
"Annabeth told the satyr that warned us to let them know that they were on their way..." Calypso placed a hand over her shoulder, calming her down. Katie released a sigh she was holding and nodded, much calmer "Either way, we should call them, we need Rachel and the others back, if her vision was correct..."
