AN So now I'm determined to make sure people know not to hate Jason and/or Piper.

GUYS GUYS THERE WAS A BoO SNEEEK PEAK AND IT'S SO DIFFERENT TO THIS AND  DON'T CARE BUT ITS BoO I MEAN WOW I NEED THE REST NOOOOOOOOOOW

Jason was amazed that he and Piper were the only ones who didn't get demigod-napped bGaiaThey waked down to Coach Hedges old room with their weapons drawn, walking slowly down the deserted corridor and eyeing their surroundings. In the hand that wasn't holding his gladius he was holding Piper's hand which felt warm and right in his.

The first net came at them while they were walking down the stairs. It flew at Piper and she nearly got caught, but Jason sliced through it easily and managed to catch Piper before she hit the floor.

'Are... Are you alright?' Jason asked her

'Yeah. I'm okay.' she replied shakily. He helped her get up and they started to walk again.

Piper caught the next one with very fast instincts. It appeared out of nowhere, a blur of bronze, and Piper slashed through it instantly.

'Wow. That's.. fast. That's really fast.'

'Uh, thanks?' She replied uncertainly.

Jason took out the bronze key from his pocket and slipped it in the keyhole. The door silently slid open, and inside was the blond, broken boy sitting on the bed with his head in his hands. He was muttering to himself, something about a cursed dagger and Kronos.

This was not unusual, of course. Ever since he'd came, he would mutter and show signs of depression.

'Hey.' Piper said, 'Um, will you talk to us yet? You can, you know.'

Luke shook his head, his head still in his hands. 

'Um, okay. Can you at least stick with us for now so you don't get kidnapped by Gaia?' Piper asked, using no charmspeak.

Luke's head perked up. His eyes were a brilliant shade of blue, but not electric like Jason's. He looked in thought for a while, and finally nodded.

'Um, great. Let's go check on Frank and Hazel. And, um, d'you have a weapon?' Jason said asked, 'Only nets are sprining out everywhere and only Celestial Bronze and Imperial Gold can break them.'

Luke nodded and pulled out a very long sword out of a sheath at his waist

The three of them walked out of the room and didn't get any net-traps until the walked out. A flurry of gryphons flew at them with a net and tried to capture them.

Jason, Piper, and Luke fought, butmore and more seemed to be coming in their places. Jason was starting to tire, and so were Piper and Luke.

One of the bigger ones flew straight at Luke. Piper tried to get it, but missed by a milimetere. Luke was swooped up in the net, but Jason fought and thought fast.

He shot in the air and flew straight at the gryphon, attemping to get Luke back. Then he realised he'd left Piper behind. Jason felt a dropping sensation of guilt as he rose up, Piper fighting for herself. But when he sneaked a glance down, Piper seemed to be doing fine by herself.

She was wildly slashing, makeing a circle or destruction around her. Man, that girl could fight.

Jason managed to catch up with Luke and the Gryphon, and started to sort of air-wrestle with the gryphon. Eventually, Jason managed to slash at the top of the net.

But now Luke was falling rapidly, and the gryphon was catching up to his falling speed.

But Jason poured all his energy, his strength, his love, his everything, into his speed right there.

Like a typical blonde superman, Jason flew in really fast and snatched Luke out of the air by the arm.

Luke managed to climb up un Jason's back, and started to fend off the flying monsters coming at them, but it wasen't enough. It was still about two hundred meteres until they got back to the Argo ll. 

They were skimming by the sea, but Jason's energy was raplidly lowering.

He couldn't do it, the weight was too much. They were nearly there, but Jason was starting to fall.

Fast.

They were only 8 feet away from the sea, dalling even faster.

Seven meteres

Six.

'Jason! Just, keep on going! Please! For Percy! For Anna-nabeth.. For everybody!' Luke shouted, speaking for the first time.

Jason didn't how, but he thought of the good things in his life. Piper. His friends. Camp Half-Blood. Camp Jupiter.

Everything went blurry around him, and he shot in the sky, collapsing on the deck of the Argo ll.

There were no more gryphons, and Piper was sitting in a corner, her head in her hands.

Jason stmbled over to her, completely drained.

She gasped. 'Jason! Are you okay? You look terrible! Where's Luke?'

'I-I'm fine. Just a little tired. Luke's over there.' he said, pointing to Luke, who was standing by the railing, leaning against the rail
