Percy's POV

"Seaweed brain!!!" Annabeth screamed as I ran away.

"I said I'm sorry!!" I said as she chased me.

Things have been peaceful since the war. Both camps are at peace. Even the Hephaestus and Hecate cabin worked together to create a doorway between both camps.

"PERSEUS JACKSON!!" She yelled.

Like I said..... Peaceful....

"Man, you're dead!" Jason said as I ran passed him.

"Piper! Can you calm her down?!" I yelled to Piper.

"Sorry Percy, I'm on Annabeth's side..." Piper replied.

"Percy, you kinda deserve it...." Hazel said as I passed her.

"Frank! A little help?" I asked, still running.

"Oh gee, I would love to help you, but Annabeth's gonna kill me after she kills you!" He laughed.

"We'll help you Percy!" Travis yelled.

"Come to our cabin, we'll shoot water balloons!" Connor added.

"STOLLS!" Annabeth's yells were starting to be heard all the way through camp. "DON'T YOU DARE!"

"On second thought!" They said and ran away.

I eventually got tired and Annabeth caught up with me. She jumped and tackled me. She stared me down.

"Don't you ever do that again. EVER!" She said.

She was trying so hard not to laugh; I know that expression on her face. She then leaned in and kissed me. After all we've been through, each of her kiss is still like our first. Warm, sweet, and apparently, addictive. She finally pulled away and got up.

"Oooh.... What did Percy do now???" Connor asked, as the twins who previously tried to help me walked closer to see what had happened.

"Did he put spiders anywhere near you?" Travis guessed. Good guess, but no.

"Annabeth.. Are you okay?" Katie asked.

"Yeah I'm fine..." She said as I laughed. She hit me in the arm, hard.

"Ow... That actually hurt. Not cool, wise girl. Not cool..." I said as everyone gathered. Apparently, we made quite a scene, yelling and running through camp.

"What is all this commotion?" Chiron asked.

"Uh... Nothing Chiron.. Sorry to make such a scene.." I said.

"Not sorry enough to not do it...." Annabeth said.

"What did Jackson do this time?" Clarrise asked.

"He actually asked the Hypnos cabin to put a spell on him. The one like Romeo and Juliet... He wasn't breathing, I couldn't feel his pulse, I thought he was dead!" Annabeth explained.

"I just wanted to see how'd you react!! And your face was priceless..." I joked.

"If you mean, killing myself because of some measly joke, dream on seaweed brain." She told me.

The campers started to leave until there were only six of us left.

"Where is he?" Piper sadly moaned. We knew what she was talking about. She was talking about Leo.

It's been a year after the Gaean war. Exactly one year. This is the next summer. After almost getting killed, all of us, we all hoped to get a calm summer this year.

What was Piper talking about, you ask? Well a few months ago, Nico had showed up at my school, mine and Annabeth's, frantically without even caring that a class full of mortals, dozing off through Biology had actually noticed the boy who just walked out of the shadows. Guess what he said. He said Leo's soul never reached Elysium. Now, this wasn't supposed to be good news, Annabeth had cried at the moment, but Nico cleared things up. Leo's soul never reached, the Underworld.

Well, you could guess what happened next. Annabeth yelled before grabbing her backpack, in the middle of the class, and dragged both Nico and I, out the class, and out the school. Permanently I might add. No, they didn't expel me this time; we just dropped out, wanting to hatch a plan to find Leo.

Annabeth took out a drachma and called Piper, who was, well, thankfully, not in class. Same thing happened. She cried, the yelled for joy, before getting Jason, and both dropped out of the school that day. Again. If I was there, I'd say Déjà Vu, because the same thing happened. Hazel and Frank got the IM, cried and laughed, and dropped out of school.

Within 3 days time, we all met up at Camp Half-Blood. Piper excused herself from her dad for dropping out, but he was fine. Annabeth's dad was okay with it, I guess? He knew her daughter had priorities. Athena? Not too ecstatic. Never in a million years would she ever think that one of her kids would intentionally be a High School drop out. My mom? She was just glad I didn't blow up the school this time.

We became year round campers, this particular year. We were there when they'd built the doorway, and we have been trying to find Leo, but nope. No sign of him. For all we know, he could've woken up in Rio, his name changed to Miguel, with absolutely no idea who he was and worst, what he was. But we couldn't afford to think the worst. We just hoped that somehow, some way, he could've found himself stranded back on Calypso's island, and lived Happily ever after.

But even if he was on Ogygia, we're going to find him, and bring him back, because, this camps needs him. We all need him.

"I know you miss him Pipes," Jason said, giving his girlfriend a side hug. "We'll find him."

"But when?" It was Hazel that moaned this time. "When are we gonna find him? I'm not taking 30 year old Miguel from Rio back to Camp Half-Blood."

There were some chuckles at this. I might've told them about the whole Miguel scenario. Hey, it was a joke. Gods know if we live without jokes, we'll all die a bit sooner.

All six of us walked through the doorway and we took a stroll through New Rome. We were getting hot chocolate when Reyna called us.

"Frank, Jason, Percy.... We've got news. Senate house, now!" Reyna said.

"Wait. On Leo?" Annabeth asked.

"No. Sorry.." Reyna said sympathetically. "The eagles are still looking. And no, no sign of him from the Amazons. And he's not in ancient grounds, Greece or Rome. But we'll find him."

"Then what news?" I asked.

"Stuff." Reyna said. "Just get to the Senate house."

"Alright." Frank said. "We should probably go. Meet us back at Camp Half-Blood?" He asked Hazel.

"Yeah. Sure." She said, and kissed Frank on the cheek. "We'll so look for the missing Latino boy."

"Bye Wise Girl." I said teasingly as I gave Annabeth a peck on the mouth.

"Bye." She said as she kissed my forehead.

"See you later Pipes." Jason said as he kissed Piper.

"Go. You have duties to attend to." Piper giggled as she fixed Jason's glasses, which just slid down his nose.

"What do you think it's about?" I asked as we waved goodbye and the girls stepped through the doorway.

"I don't know, ask him." Jason said pointing at Frank. "He's the Praetor."

"You think, yeah, if I'd known, then I would have to be the one to call you guys. Not Reyna." He explained.

"Let's just go."

A/N

So, this chapter is updated. I think it's better than the previous one. I think my edits will be much better because I personally think I've grown as a writer, so when I went back to change things, it'll be better.
