No comments on the last chapter, so I decided to go ahead and choose! Anyway, here's a little disclaimer and then on with the story. This chapter is dedicated to my only follower and the only one who reads this...FWA! Thanks a lot :)
Me: This is a disclaimer.
Annabeth:Really? You're one of those people.
Me:Yes, yes I am.
Hazel:Get on with it! We want to know what Coach Hedge, Reyna and Nico are up to!
Me: Fine. I do own all of Percy Jackson and HOO :)
Annabeth: It's called a DISclaimer, not a claimer!
Me: Heh heh heh
Leo: If you don't write this chapter I will break up with Calypso!
Me: *gasp* But that would ruin the whole story!
Leo:Exactly
Me:...Rick owns all these characters and shiz...not me...
Hazel:Finally!

Reyna
My black hair was plastered to my forehead as usual, and my usually hard eyes were soft with exhaustion. Even so, as I grabbed onto Nico for dear life, I was kind of happy. I didn't have to worry about leading a legion, controllling Octavian, or even Jason and Percy. For now, anyway. My main job was fighting off monsters and controlling Coach Hedge. Fun, for me. As we disolved into shadows, I noticed the Athena Parthenos was glowing brighter than ever. This was good. It was meant to be going home - of a sorts. If we could get this to Camp Half Blood in time we could save a war between the Greeks and us Romans. Not that the war wasn't for a good reason, but I know I didn't want my demigods to sacrifice themselves to destroy our supposed allies.
Then we were sucked out into broad daylight. I blinked, then readied myself for any monsters. But there were none. It seemed we had arrived on the main street in a lovely little seaside town. There were tourists strolling along a promenade, lined by quaint B&Bs in a range of colours. Seagulls flew above, and the street looked out over a stunning bay. Oh, and Coach Hedge had found lunch.
"For the last time" I growled, stalking up to him, and dragging him by his hood. "You do not snack on the local plantbeds!"
"But this is fresh and juicy!" Coach complained. "I haven't had a meal like this in days."
My dark eyes scanned our surroundings. "Nico, where are we?" There was a bit of panic in my voice. We had just been in Boulongue, and were going to arrive in Liverpool, before going to Ireland, then finding a means of transport to get us and a forty foot statue across the sea to America.
"Well..." Nico looked more tired than usual, which was saying something. He had permanent bags under his eyes. His whole stature was hunched as he leaned against the Athena Parthenos, and he scowled at everything. "I may have gone further than planned...we are in a pace called Dingle. In Ireland." He breathed in as he anticipated my reaction.
"Dingle?! That was meant to be the stop after Liverpool! Nico, you have to stop overworking yourself! You could be killed." Worry shone in my eyes. I placed my hand on his arm gently.
"Get off" Nico snapped, pulling away all of a sudden. I recoiled, hurt. Even Coach Hedge looked surprised. "I'm going to book a room for the night." He stomped away to the nearest Bed and Breakfast.
"And leave us out here to fend for ourselves, protecting a forty foot statue?!" I screamed, anger rising within me. Nico and I had got closer during this journey, but it seemed he was now shunning me. I ran towards him and blocked his path. "You're not going anywhere!"
He drew his sword, sticking it in my face. I paled. From experience I knew he was a better swordsman than me.
"You wouldn't" I said in a low tone.
He froze, like reality was sinking in. Then he pushed me aside and slammed the door to the recpetion area in my face. I stood there, stunned. Coach Hedge came over. "Let's find a place to camp out."
"Unless you have any ideas on how to move that statue, I suggest we're sleeping here with it." Reyna returned to the seaside, shrugging off her backpack as she went. After setting up a bed, she slipped into her slepping bag. Once there, she gazed up at the night sky. She smiled wistfully, remembering times with Jason when they would lie down and point out the constellations. There was a beautiful silver full moon in the sky, hanging there like a disco ball. She looked over when Coach Hedge came over with some nectar in a wooden cup.
"I don't need that, I'm fine. No injures." She wiggled out of the sleeping bag to prove her point.
"It's not the external injuries I'm worried about." Coach raised an eyebrow. "Come on cupcake, I haven't got all night."
Reyna couldn't argue. She drained the cup and handed it back. Then she rolled over. It took a long time to drift off, Hedge spent a fair bit of the night Iris-messaging, and when she finally managed to get to sleep it was short lived. She was woken up by a bright light, and a yell, then a gasp. Struggling to get up and find her sword, she gasped too at the sight. A gorgeous woman stood there, a bright silver like the moon. She had long white blonde hair, and sparkling silvery eyes. Her long dress barely made a sound as she walked.
"Who are you?" Coach Hedge asked, holding out his bat in front of him.
"I know!" Reyna said suddenly. "You're Selene."
