"Remember when Leo came back covered in tattoos and sweat!?" Percy exclaimed leaving us in fits of tears, especially Hazel who was there when he made her write it on his skin. I gently grabbed Pipers waist and brought her closer to me. Right now, looking out on the horizan with my friends laughing about the amazing memories we had about Leo, I wouldn't change this moment for anything.

I looked over at Hazel who was currently wiping away her tears. "We should drag Leo out of the bunker...he needs to relax a bit". She said, already getting up. No one disagreed with her about retrieving the chirpy boy. However, just as she was about to walk over to the direction of bunker nine, a powerful voice boomed over us.

Out of instinct, we all took out our weapons prepared to fight to the death if we have to. I protectivly stood in front of Piper while aiming my weapon at the figure standing befire us. "Who are you," growled Percy who was also doing the same with Annabeth. The figure just laughed, as if saying 'pathetic demi-gods believe they can kill me with their measly weapons. How cute!'

"No need to become so defensive. I'm not going to hurt you young heroes. Well, not pysically at least." Gently said the voice. I instantly knew that the voice belonged to Queen Juno, or well actually her Greek form...Queen Hera. So reluctantly, everyone lowered their weapons. Well everyone other than Annabeth who seemed like she was going to attack at any moment.

Queen Hera stepped out of the shadows, letting the moon shine upon her flawless features. Ugh, goddesses and their perfect structure. "What are YOU doing here?" Annabeth spat at the immortal. I was waiting for Hera to blast Annabeth until she was a mere speck of dirt. It seemed like she wanted to as well. However, Hera forced a smile at Annabeth, her eyebrows scrunched together with fury.

"If I were you child, I would watch your mouth to who you talk to. You don't want me one you bad side" she seethed through her teeth. Annabeth seemed like to wanted to explode, but Percy gently touched her shoulder and shook his head as if saying, 'it's not worth it'. Annabeth didn't look to happy about that, but reluctantly dropped her weapon and took a deep breath.

"My apologies, QUEEN HERA" Annabeth said mockingly at Hera. Everyone seemed to tense even more, but luckily Hera didn't seem to notice the tone in Annabeth's apologie and smiled brightly.

"You see that wasn't so hard. Even and imbecile can learn how to do the simplest of tasks". By then each boyfriend had to hold back there girlfriend, even though we didn't want to. 

"Now as to why i'm here," she started off then stopped, thinking of what she was going to say. "Oh right! You demi-gods believe you know each other SO WELL." "We do!" Piper protested earning a glare from Hera. She cowered ever so slightly back. Anger ran through my veins.

"No you don't. All of you like to believe that you're all one big happy family. Well guess what your not!" She yelled causing us to become shocked. "We are-" Hazel started but was cut off by a scoff. "Please don't give me that Ms. Levesque. You all think that Leo is in the bunker!" She exclaimed making everyone confused.

"But he is..." Frank trailed off. "If he's not there, then where-" "That doesn't matter right now." She glanced quickly at the heep of rocks in worry. I looked over at it confused. It just a rocks.

"Let me ask all of you a question," this got everyone's attention, even Annabeth's who tilted her head in curiosity. "Who do you believe had the worst childhood."

In this simple question, it sparked a lot of controversy. Even if I was raised by a pack of wovles, I personally think that Hazel had the worst childhood. I mean, she LITTERALLY died and came back to life thanks to Nico. Nico...I wonder where he is right now.

"ENOUGH!" Boomed the immortal causing everyone to freeze resulting in a very hilarious scene. Frank was transformed into a bear. He was laying down on the dirt with an annoyed expression as Hazel sat on top of him with her legs crossed as she Casually checked her nails. Annabeth still had a look of fury on her face when judo flipped Percy and he was also laying on the dirt with an expression which I call the 'hurt baby seal face'. I would've have cooed at that if one:

I wanted to lose my dignity at that moment (says the boy who was defeated by a brick) and two:

If Piper wasn't currently riding on my back while her hands covered my neck as if she was choking me...and she was. Yeah...sometimes I even wonder how we defeated Gaia.

Hera looked bewildered, but quickly recomposed herself. "It is true that all of you have had terrible experiences," her expression showed pity. "However from all of you, Leo Valdez had the worst by far."

Everyone looked VERY confused. I'm pretty sure we all wanted to laugh at her. Leo is the most happiest guy I have ever seen. There is no way he had it bad.

Hera seemed to sense our disbelief so she sighed and rose her hands. A beam of light shown out, causing us to be temporarily blind. After adjusting my eye sight back to normal, my eyes widened at what I saw.

A glass dome surrounded us. From Percy who was currently creating sand angles, to the heep of rocks. "What is this for Hera?" Piper asked trying to be polite as possible. Hera looked around proudly at her creation.

"You'll be watching Leo Valdez's memories here." She said simply as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. We stared at dumbfounded, even Annabeth was at lost of words. "Your joking...right?" Percy asked finally getting up from his sand angle creation.

I was hoping that Hera would say, "Of course i'm kidding! HAHA! You should've seen your faces! You were all like waaaa!" Unfortunately, the Fates  wern't on our side today. Hera frowned, "Of course i'm not. If you all want to be a perfect family, then you need to get to know each other better! Leo usually closes himself off when it comes to the past and it's recently been catching up with him."

I looked at her with fury, which surprised me. "We don't need any help! If Leo doesn't want to talk about his past than that's fine! We already are a perfect family and we trust/love each other very much!" Protested Piper to which everyone agreed with. Hera simply rose a single perfect arched eyebrow, "Are you really, because if I recall, families don't talk poorly about them behind their backs. (Hehe...speack for yourself Hera!)

Piper seemed to be taken aback from this comment, as well as everyone else. We all hung out heads in shame. "Now, this dome will project Leo's earliest memories to his most recent. None of you can leave and no one can enter. On the outside it will seem like just all of you laughing about so of course no one will bother you. I will come back to wake up Leo when this is done! Farewell for now young heroes." And with that Hera vanashied back up to Olympus.

No one said of word. I didn't want to watch his memories, it is an invasion of privacy. But a guilty part of me so desperately wants to know how Leo, the most hyperactive joke telling guy I know, has had the worst childhood.

And on that happy note, it began.

Okay so this is obviously my first fan fiction. I'm typing this on my phone so don't blame me if I miss spell things or if my grammar is horrible. Also I'll try to update at ever chance I get.

Thanks for giving this book a chance!  - Majesticallymajestic
