It was peaceful in the air. Usually,I was nervous in the air but I was calmer on Blackjack for some reason. I needed to find my friends Rael,Ethan and Addison. If I had strange water powers like Percy then maybe they had powers like their parents too. So Rael could change into animals and she might have underworld powers. I bet Addison can fly and Ethan has charm-speak and is handsome. If my powers are acting up,then theirs could possibly be doing the same.It felt like forever,but we finally made it to Camp Jupiter. I thanked Blackjack for the ride and I gave him some trail mix.

Anytime boss's daughter. He replied then he flew off. I walked to the entrance of Camp Jupiter. Rael and Ethan were guarding the door. When Rael saw me,her eyes lit up. "K.C.! What are you doing here? It's been so long since we've seen you. How are you? Isn't this great,Ethan?" He shifted to where I was standing."Yes. Yes it is." His messy brown hair and dark skin gleamed. His eyes seemed to change color like a kaleidoscope, going from brown to blue to green in the sunlight. He held a sword,much like my dad's. He looked so strong and handsome.. I may have blushed because Rael noticed and blurted,

"So you want to go inside? Addison would want to see you." Her caramel hair was tied back and she was wearing a purple SPQR camp T-shirt like Ethan. She had a bow and arrow strapped to her back. Ethan pointed to the entrance. "After you."

Rael walked in with me.

"So,you and Ethan huh?" she said,her voice lowered so Ethan couldn't hear. I punched her in the shoulder.

"Hey! Well uh...-" She gave me a 'really' look. I rolled my eyes and looked in the other direction. I glanced back at Ethan,who was blushing rapidly. We went having a silent conversation when we reached Addison's house. Rael knocked on the door. Jason came to the door and greeted us.

"K.C.! It's so good to see you! I'll go get Piper."

He smiled with his scarred lips. When he was young,he tried to eat a stapler. I heard him yell upstairs.

"Piper,honey come downstairs.Someone's here to see us."

Addison was reading a book....um excuse me comic book on the couch. He looked up and a smile appeared on his face.

"K.C.! Hey what's up?" He also acknowledged Rael.

"Hey Rael.Uh........Hey." Was it just me or did he have a thing for her? He quickly tried to flatten his messy blonde hair. Piper came into the room before awkward silence began. She was beautiful as usual. I think Jason might have been staring when she spoke.

"K.C it's great to see you but where are Percy and Annabeth? Shouldn't they be with you?"

I guess she saw the fire in my eyes because she gave me a stern 'mom' look. I knew that wasn't good knowing that Annabeth and Piper are really good friends and that meant trouble for me. Jason walked to the window and saw something. It was three Pegasi and very familiar people came racing toward the house.

Boy,was I in trouble. They might have to make a new word to describe how much trouble I was in. Annabeth,Percy and Nico didn't even knock. They burst in and nearly took the hinges off the door. They were fuming. I recall seeing steam from Percy ears. Annabeth looked a little purple from rage. Nico crossed his arms and slouched against the door ignoring everything. I couldn't trust him after what Chiron had said about him.He might have been brainwashed or is Manasseh himself,but disguised. Chiron stated. No joke,Percy grabbed me. Knowing he shoots water bullets from his hands,didn't really make me comfortable. But he hugged me and Annabeth joined in. They still looked like they were about to kill me though. They were to tears when Percy stuttered,

"Don't-you-ever-do-that-again."

Everyone stood there,quietly. Annabeth stood and told us all what had happened after I left.

"When you weren't in your room we didn't know what to do.We were afraid Manasseh had done something or he kidnapped you or something.We grabbed Nico and asked him if he'd seen you but he didn't say anything helpful so we agreed to take him with us to look we grabbed Pegasi and noticed Blackjack looked worn out. Percy asked him where he'd flown to to be so exhausted and Blackjack spilled the whole story then we set out to Camp Jupiter. I was speechless. Yes,I was mad at them for not believing in me but I wouldn't do that again. We were family and family sticks together.
