Piper found herself in a prison cell next to Annabeth. She was muttering in Greek. Piper looked in her sorroundings. Frank and Hazel were imprisoned in the cell next to hers, looking confused. Jason was in the cell in front of them. Leo was in the opposite side of Piper's prison, his face grim. Piper could see a tear flickering down his cheek.

"Repair boy, what happened?"

"I don't know" he sobbed "I got really excited when I saw Percy. Then a voice started talking in my head"

"Gaea?"

"No. this voice was different. It was... I can't describe it" He sytarted crying for real. Piper was impressed. She had never seen him cry. As annoying as he was, it broke Piper's heart to see him sad. He continued "I'm so, so, sorry guys.  I ruined every single thing. I'm sorry"

"Repair boy..."

"Don't call me that" He said harshly.

And with that, silence reigned over the prison.

Then another sob broke it. But it was not Leo's. It was Annabeth.

Piper hugged her. She didn't push her apart, fortunately. "Hey, what's wrong?"

"What's wrong? MY PERCY IS WOUNDED! and that stupid guy Octavian wouldn't take him to the water! He could—"

"Annabeth, he's okay, I'm sure of it" Jason said "If he's officialy a Praetor, the Romans won't let him die." Leo was silently crying.

"This was supposed to be a good day for me! not a disaster!"

"but—"

"Seaweed brain! Come back!" She turned to Piper " They took him away from me!" She cried really hard with a mad look in her eyes. She hugged Piper and cried in her shoulder.

"Hey... I'm sure he will come for us. Don't worry."

"He will?" she said like a little girl.

"Of course! you should be the first one to know that! who saved you from Atlas?"

"Him" she sobbed. Jason opened his mouth. He hadn't heard most of the stories of Percy's achievements. The Greeks— including her— were forbidden to tell him anything in case he was a spy.

Piper continued.

"Who retrieved the lightning bolt?"

"Percy" Annabeth said.

"Who discovered how to activate those statues at the Titan War?"

"I did!"

Gods, this is soooo not easy! Piper thought. Try another one.

"Who killed medusa?"

"Percy"

"Who guided you across the Maze?"

"Mortal Rachel"

Geez! Piper thought.

"Who defeated Kronos?"

"Percy" Annabeth sighed, more cheerful.

"Who—"

"Who's the one whose plans always work?" A powerful and reassuring voice said. Piper turned. Percy was staring at Annabeth with a huge grin on his face.

"Percy!" Annabeth stood up, radiantly. Then she frowned "Wait. My plans are the ones that work! you always spoil everything!"

"Oh, really?" His grin grew larger. "What about Capture the flag?"

"Well—"

"What about me saving you from the sirens?"

"Hum—"

"What about—" he got closer and whispered so that no one except Annabeth and Piper could hear "what about the kiss in the canoe lake?"

Annabeth laughed and turned red. "Well, I guess you are right. I would have liked to see Clarisse's face when we didn't go out"

Piper wondered what had happened that day. Then she remembered something. August 18th Annabeth used to say. Percy's birthday. The day Percy and Annabeth had finally gotten together. Piper sighed in her insides. Wasn't it romantic?

Reyna entered behind Percy and watched at a distance. Wait. Had Piper just seen hurt in Reyna's eyes? Piper suddenly felt bad for her. Not only because Jason liked Piper, but also because she could sense a wave of love from Reyna to Percy. But Percy only had room for Annabeth in his heart.

Piper felt sympathy for her. She prayed silently to her mother: Please mom, give her a love soon.

Annabeth said "Get us out of here Seaweed Brain" Okay that wasn't very romantic, but Percy's eyes sparkled when he heard that. "'Course Wise Girl" He took a key out of nowhere and opened the cell.

Annabeth rushed out and kissed him. She whispered in his ear "thank you Percy. For everything" He hugged her "Thank you, wise girl. Even when I had lost most of my memories, you were always the bright spot in my mind"

Piper could swear in that moment Reyna was holding back a single tear. Frank said "Hum, Percy, could you open our cell too?"

Percy grinned. "Yeah, Sure. I'm sorry."

When all of them were free Percy said "let's go eat something. Gods, I could eat one of Apolo's cows right now" 

Annabeth snorted "You can trust him"

"Hey! I was just saying!"

"Aha."

"Gagh! Never mind" Percy rolled his eyes. Again. Reyna looked hurt.
