Natasha POV

"Natasha wait, as a concerned person who knows you... Are you alright?" He asked, "Yes sir Chiron, thank you for the concern, it sounds sincere even though I do not remember you." I said with my back facing him as my hand was on the door handle, "You do not remember me?" He questioned, "Circumstances made that I do not remember my loved ones and well wishers, but I will get to know you all soon." I said sadly, "If you need anything or if you need to speak to anybody..." He trailed off, "I know where to find you." I smiled.

"I see you have made a friend, what's his name?" He asked referring to Nemean, "Nemean." I said, "Thee Nemean lion?" He was shocked, "Yeah, my best friend." I said and sir Chiron released a cough, "Your friend..." He choked on the air, "See that... It's called reputation." Nemean smirked, "A bad one, you made him choke." I stated and he scoffed. "Um can I get you something to eat, I have your favourite... Custard. I remember you as a food lover." He smiled.

"I sorry but I can't eat at the moment, but I promise, as soon as I can... I'll come to earth and have food from you first." I smiled and from the corner of my eye I saw him nod. I opened the door to exit and when I did, outside the door... All the campers were gathered around that cabin. "Sir Chiron, I think the campers have something they want to discuss with you." I called out and made way for him to see what was going on. "Um... I think they are here to meet you." He said, "All of them?" I questioned and he nodded.

I stepped out and immediately a small girl locked me into a hug, "Tasha, my oldest best friend. How are you, I missed you so much... I'm so glad you back." The girl almost cried and then another girl who looked to be my age looked at me apologetically, "Katie?" I called out to her and at first she was shocked that I knew her but she nodded with a smile. I knelt and got a closer look at the girl who had hugged me, it was Flora. She was as cute as she was in the photo.

"Flora, hey. How are you?" I held her face in my hands, "I'm alright, but how are you. Where had you been? You know our big brothers and sisters were contributing to having you found, but you were no where." She said in a really cute voice, "I'm alright now, aren't I?" I gave her a sad smile, "Beautiful as always, your eyes changed but they are still as pretty as ever if not more." She smiled, "And you, cute and adorable as always." I smiled and she hugged me one more time.

"Hey, Piper said you don't remember any of us... Then how come you know our Names?" She asked, "Percy prepared me yesterday before I came here." I said and she nodded understanding. "Is that your friend?" She asked pointing at Nemean, "Flora don't point, bad manners." Katie chided, "It's alright. Yes he is, my very close friend." I smiled, "Can I play with him?" She asked and I looked at Nemean. "Sure, he's a vegetarian." I smiled remembering a phrase from the movie Twilight.

"He eats veggies?" She asked, "No, it just means he won't hurt you." I smiled, I didn't want to directly tell her that it meant he doesn't kill or eat demigods. She went to go play with Nemean. I stood up and was face to face with the whole camp, Piper was right in front of me in tears, I remembered Luke's words to not feel awkward with the hugs and stuff because everybody knew me. I awkwardly opened my arms welcoming her to a hug and she dashed into me.

She cried onto my shoulder and I comforted her, "Look at you comforting someone you don't even know, sweet as always. You know, the way you are saying our names, you are making us feel as if you have not forgotten us." She cried, "I'll remember soon..." I hugged her tighter. "I'm sorry, I'm supposed to be the stronger one here but I'm breaking down." She chuckled, "Let me give the others a chance to at least meet you." She stepped aside wiping her tears. I was embraced by, Bianca, Nico, Grover, Leo, Jason, Conner, Travis and the rest of the other campers.

After all the introductions, there was one particular person Percy showed me that I had not seen. Tyson. "Where's Tyson?" I asked the others, "He's in that cabin." Grover pointed out, "I'll catch up with you all in a few, and the rest whenever possible. Let me go meet Percy's brother." I smiled leaving Nemean with Flora. I walked up to the cabin and knocked, there was a pause and then a shirtless boy opened the door.
