Jason

Jason was furious. After eight months gone his welcome home was a disaster. No one even looked happy to see him back! Reyna even seemed to hate him. He was holding Piper's hand but still. He loved Piper more than he ever could love Reyna. He had to explain that to her later. His life was hard enough as it was.

 All of Camp Half-Blood wanted to come with the Argo II to Camp Jupiter just to see Percy. Percy Jackson, oh gods he heard enough of that guy. Jason was impressed but that was the problem. He went on five quests, defeated four (A/N: I think it's four) titans, battled Ares and lived, returned Hades' Helm of Darkness and Zeus' lightning bolt, saved Olympus, and was a great leader. The camp was so devastated that it was downright depressing. He was apparently loyal too. Even Clarisse liked him! Compared to Jason, Percy was a god. Leo sure treated him that way. Percy was his role model.

After a very awkward silence, Jason could see worry reflected in every campers' face. Where was Percy? Seriously, what kind of friend was he if he didn't even show up? If he would have cared he had eight months to contact the camp. Before Jason had time to tell the camp that Percy was a no show, he heard two things-a scream and a yell. 'Octavian that twerp! I hate him so glad he's running in fear. Wait who is he running from exactly?'

Jason then saw a guy with a strong aura of power. It was even stronger than Jason's. He was handsome too. Piper had her mouth gaping. Jealousy surged through Jason. 'Great do I have competition now?' Jason thought. Then Jason realized something. He was guessing everyone else did too. The powerful demigod was no one other than the famous Percy Jackson. Jason groaned inwardly cursing himself for his bad luck.

"IF YOU EVER TRY TO KILL ME AGAIN AND BLAME IT ON THE GREEKS YOU ARE SOOO DEAD!" Percy shouted. He then noticed everyone staring at him including Camp Half-Blood. "Oh, well um hey guys…Long time no see."

There was a second of silence then they erupted into cheers at the arrival of Percy. They all soon crowded around him trying to get his attention. Another round of jealousy went through Jason. After the praise died down, Percy made his way towards Jason, Piper, and Leo.

"COHORTS BACK TO YOUR ACTIVITIES! Hi I'm Percy Jackson, son of Poseidon." He greeted the trio with a wide grin.

Where did he get the authority to tell the Romans what to do? Then Jason noticed Percy's purple cape. Of course he took his position of praetor too. He obviously loved the attention. And what was with his title, no Savior of Olympus added or anything? It didn't make sense.

Percy went directly to Annabeth and they embraced with a long kiss added. Everyone looked happy for them. Jason had enough of the love fest so he cleared his throat. No response came. He tried another time. Still, no response whatsoever. After Jason's fifth attempt they broke apart. After that teary reunion the introductions came.

"Hi I'm Piper McLean." Piper said in such a dreamy voice, Jason gripped her hand tighter.

Jason had never felt that way before. He just wasn’t used to competition and it was annoying him that it was happening. Percy seemed like a genuine nice guy.
