The New Chaos Army

Balcony

I realised once I got to our spot entrance that I couldn't actually get up there. The whole point of making it flying accessible only was to keep out other people. It never really occurred to us that we wouldn't have wings to get there at one point.

"Great. Now how am I going to get up?" I said aloud.

"Man, took you long enough, what did you do, crawl your way here?" A voice asked from behind me. I turned and saw Scarlett standing behind me with her arms crossed.

"Hey. You remember the intiate girls right?" I asked.

"Yeah yeah, your fangirls wouldn't let you leave. Whine about it." She said. She then grabbed me by the waist and pulled me closer to her.

"I would hold on." She said.

"Why?"

"Because how else are you going to get  up there?" She said. I smiled and wrapped my arms around her, trying not to blush.

She launched us into the air, flying up to our spot. I missed flying. I probably missed it more than anything. It was what Scarlett and I bonded over. Probably the only thing we really had in common for awhile.

We landed on the balcony and looked out at the stars. The balcony was one of the first places Scarlett and I got to spend some alone time aside from training. There used to be a door to it but we destroyed it so we could have alone time up here.

"I know what your thinking." Scarlett said. The 'I know what your thinking' game was something we often did. Usually we would say something stupid like 'Your thinking about magically ponies in space' which wasn't that random to be honest.

"Yeah? What am I thinking?" I asked. She smirked.

"Your thinking about how awesome I am." She said, standing on the railing, taking a bow.

"Ha, you wish." I said. She glared at me. Then laughed.

"Fine. I know what your really thinking then." She said, sitting on the railing, next to where I was leaning.

I raised an eyebrow.

"Your thinking....well, your missing your wings." She said. My smile faded and I nodded.

"Hey, you'll get them back. All we need to do is take down End." She said.

"Yeah. End, the strongest and only primordial alive." I said sarcastically, "We're totally going to be able to take him down."

She turned to face me.

"Listen Kiri. We're going beat him. Plus, he's not the only primordial. He's just the only major one." Scarlett said.

"There are other ones?" I asked.

"Of course. Gaea, Uranus, Tartarus,  you know, and all planets have their own. Their just minor compared to Chaos and The others. Plus, all of the powers of Chaos are here. We're stronger than End." Scarlett said.

"Yeah. Except we don't have all of us. Remember, Al has the intelligence thing." I mumbled.

"Listen, you don't have the shadow power so you don't get to be a Debby Downer anymore. Plus this isn't why we came to talk here." Scarlett said.

"You don't have to explain the whole power switch thing to me. I understand." I said.

"That's not what I was going to say." She said. She leaned down and grabbed my hand.

"Maybe we should just relax for one last night. One night before the whole End fight and the trials to get into the vault and such." She said. I smiled.

"Yeah." I squeezed her hand lightly.

We sat on the railing in silence for awhile.

"Scarlett."

"Yeah?"

"Um...I er-I wanted to ask you....um.... W-What, um, what are we?" I asked, stuttering. She smiled.

"Well. I like you. And I'm pretty sure that you like me. So, you tell me." She said. I felt my face heat up.

"Um...well...I...sorry, I'm not really good at this." I said, awkwardly scratching the back of my neck.

"How are you not good at this. Didn't you and Annabeth go out for like two years? How did you ask her out?" Scarlett asked laughing.

"Well, I didn't. When we didn't die after Kronos when we got back to camp I tried to talk but she ended up kissing me. Then we got thrown in the lake and-" Scarlett cut me off by grabbing my shirt color and kissing me. I could have stayed that way for an eternity.

When we pulled she was smirking. In sure my face looked stupid.

"Does that clear it up?" She asked.

"I'm still confused. Does this make us...?" I asked, still not able to say it.

"OH MY GODS! I have the stupidest boyfriend in the whole world!" She announced.

"Oh, so we are-" She cut me off by kissing me again. Man she's good at that.

After that we just watched the stars for our last peaceful night.
