~Piper~

Getting kidnapped wasn't the worst part of my day; getting knocked out was. I had only stepped outside for a minute to check what that stupid noise was. I look down the alley for a split second, next thing I know, darkness is all I see. I woke up, Hades knows how long after, in a giant cage hanging from the ceiling of a large room. Grover was in a cage too, a few feet away from mine. I felt pain on my right temple. When I reached to touch it, I whimpered. It hurt. Really bad. When I pulled my hand back, there was blood. A lot of blood. Grover was sleeping, but he stirred for a moment.

        "Grover," I whispered ,"psst! Wake up!"

        "Piper? You're awake! Thank the gods! Jason's on his way with the others. They're coming to save us."

        "Good. That's good. How long was I out?

        "I'm not sure, but if I had to guess, maybe two days?"

        "Woah. Gods, my head hurts." It was throbbing rather fast.

        "Rest, Piper. They'll be here soon." Those were the last words I heard before darkness was all I saw.

I awoke again to the sound of screaming. Of something huge. Those ogres. Not very bright. They dislike me because they know me. From about 5 years ago, when I went on my first quest. I forget their names, but they didn't forget mine. 

        "Wakey, wakey, doll face." The taller ogre threw something in my cage. Vegetables. Rotten vegetables. He threw raw meat in Grover's cage. He cried out.

        "That poor cow. What did he ever do to deserve this?" Grover whimpered. I pushed the rotten veggies out of the cage. Then the smaller orge came in. He wasn't as mean as his brother. He brings Grover and I fresh food every now and then. Today he brought me some apples, cheese and biscuits. Grover got a few bushels of lettuce.

        "Thank you. You are very kind." I smiled as I told him. He blushed.

        "You are welcome. I am sorry for kidnapping you. But if I don't obey mother, I will be disowned. I do not know what that means, but it doesn't sound good. So I bring the goaty and you food to pay for it."

        "Well, again, you are very kind." He walked out of the large room. My head was still throbbing, so my vision wasn't the best. I closed my eye's for a second and ended up falling asleep again.

The Argo 2 was soaring through the air. Hazel, Percy and Nico were on deck. Hazel and Percy were talking. Nico was watching the sunset. He had his knee's pulled up to his chest, his chin resting on his knee's. He frowned, like always. Then Jason walked onto the deck. He looked fine. Though he had bags under his eye's. Hazel and Percy walked to him. Percy put a hand on his shoulder.
