-Percy 16
-Jason 17
THE GREEKS AND ROMANS ALREADY KNEW EACH OTHER. JASON AND PERCY HADNT MET EACH OTHER OR HEARD OF THE OTHER EVER. OBVIOUSLY.

Percy's thoughts often drifted to Jason, his childhood best friend. His crush. His first kiss. He hasn't seen him for... 6 to 7 years. He hadn't heard of or from him.

He felt tears prick his eyes. He used Riptide to slash at the training dummies. Percy twisted to the side, slicing multiple dummies head off.

He walked over to the stands where he had his water and a towel. He wiped his face and took a drink. Percy turned to the new campers who were watching. There were about 15 of them.

"So... you guys must be my new class." He said. They all nodded, obviously afraid. Percy chuckled. "Guys, I'm not gonna hurt you. I was in your spot a few years ago." He let out a few jokes to get them comfortable.

Percy pointed at a girl with blonde hair and brown eyes. "You start us off, name, fact, and parentage. If you haven't been claimed just say undetermined."

•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•
Percy pointed to the last girl. She had brown hair brown eyes and soft tanish skin that glowed.

The girl took a deep breath, "Uh... I'm Selena.." Percy winced. "I love to play soccer, and I'm a daughter of Aphrodite." Percy choked a sob back. He turned around let a tear slip. Then realized, it's ok to show grief. He turned back around and his 'students' noticed the tear rolling down his cheek.

"What's wrong?" An Apollo boy asked. Percy met all of their eyes as he said, "War flashbacks. Silena Beauregard, a daughter of Aphrodite, she died. But she died a hero."

It was silent before he cleared his throat.
Percy chuckled. "Jeez i sound like an old man. Let's get this show on the road."

He taught the kids how to hold a sword and some simple lunges and blocks. After a while Annabeth walked in. "Hey Seaweed Brain." She said. "Hey Wise Girl." Percy answered. "Alright, everyone stop what you're doing." The kids stopped and looked at Percy and Annabeth as they hugged.

No, they weren't dating anymore. They had broken up after a while because they were getting distant. They were still best friends though. Percy turned to the class. He pointed to Annabeth. "Alright guys. So this is Annabeth. She's like my sister. She's also going to help me with a demonstration." He saw a few of the boys looking at her lustily. "She's also off limits." Percy added. Annabeth snorted.

The kids went to sit in the stands while they watched Percy and Annabeth get in a fighting stance. Annabeth had a sword for once. "Ready Wise Girl?"

"Always Seaweed Brain."

Then she lunged at him. He expected it so he side stepped. He twirled his sword and the arena became filled with the sound of swords clanking against each other. At the same time, Percy was yelling out the moves he was using for his class.

Percy walked out of his bathroom with a towel around his waist and another in his hands drying his hair. He froze when he saw a boy on his bed. A very large, blonde, one eyed boy. The boy grinned. "Percy!" And threw his arms around his half brother.

Percy used one hand to keep his towel from falling. "Nice to see you too big buddy." And hugged him back. When they let go he pulled on some boxers. "How are you doing Tyson?" He asked putting on some dark skinny jeans. They had rips in them from multiple games of capture the flag.
