Water and Magic Do Mix

The Mystery Woman

Pierce's Pov
It has been two months since the Second Giant War has been over. I have been juggling between the camp  and home with mom. I come here to camp whenever I get time from home.

Reyna, Tyson and Ella have been travelling the world to get together the Sybilline Books or the Prophecies of the old days.

Jason has been using his time to make shrines for all the minor Gods and Goddesses. Sucks to be him. And Piper has been helping him while also maintaining her position as head counsellor of her cabin.

Leo, well he returned on his dragon ship Festus with one lonely titaness Calypso. They are officially a couple and a cute one at that. He is managing his time at camp and outside world as he is making his dream of an auto-repair shop come true: LEO AND CALYPSO'S REPAIR SHOP.

Frank and Hazel are at Camp Jupiter, Frank being a praetor and Hazel helping him there while also in a serious relationship with him. Rumours if you ask me, he will propose soon. I can't wait. Eep.

Nico is also travelling between two camps to see his sister in one and his boyfriend in another camp. Yes you read right. He and Will have started dating officially. Solangelo Forever like me and Piper like to call them.

Last but not the least, Annabeth, well she is done redesigning Olympus again. Gods are so annoying, always making some changes again and again to their palaces since she is the Official Architect of Olympus. She also designed a garden to memorialize the dead of both the wars. There are rumours of her meeting someone but there is no confirmation about it.

That leaves me, well I've just come to camp in the morning because I had the day off. My mom or Sally as I know her is pregnant with a girl. I can't wait to meet her and spoil her. I have always dreamt of spoiling my siblings rotten. Paul is still teaching at Goode High School but takes out time to look after mom as well. So today he is on babysitting duty as I call it and I am at camp for having fun as mom and Paul call it.

So here I am today. But what I didn't know was that today my life would mess up again due to the 3 old hags who love to mess with my life waking  up every morning and asking themselves 'How can we mess with Perci's life more ', like really.

Coming back to the point and story, I was in my cabin watching a movie when there was a knock on the cabin door. I was annoyed at the interruption as the movie had reached an interesting point. Regardless I put my laptop under the sheets and open the cabin door.
It was Annabeth.
"What happened Annie, I thought we had a deal. I play by your side but you don't disturb me until it is time to play." I said.
"Chiron has summoned you to the big house. Looks like you're gonna get a quest" Annabeth said.
I close the door behind me and ask her," what makes you say I'm gonna get a quest. It might be someone just come to meet."
"Maybe", she said and walked with me to the big house."Also don't go to sleep after this, we have to strategize for Capture the Flag" .

I rolled my eyes in annoyance. I wasn't planning to sleep. I have a movie and an episode of Suits to finish.

We entered the big house together, and what I saw shocked me because I did not expect her to come to see me. It's usually the other way around and I had already informed her that I wanted a year break. I quickly put on mask of indifference so Annie wouldn't notice my worried expression.

Chiron saw us," hello Perci dear. Annabeth would you mind going back to your activities, I would like to talk to Perci alone"." Of course, Chiron", she said and walked out closing the door behind her.

"Madam President, to what do I owe the pleasure, I thought I would not be hearing from anyone from the Ministry until after I came back to train and work there", I said." I know that but the situation demanded that I see you asap". These words scared me. I immediately jumped to the worst conclusions thinking something bad is gonna happen there now.

"Aliana, you have to go to London ." These words alone sent a shiver down my spine. I never thought I'd have to face my past again. My past has haunted me for as long as I have remembered.

I am not ready to go back. Should I go back. He doesn't even know I exist. What will I say or how will I explain myself.

I was in shock. I didn't even realize I left the big house. I was just walking without knowing where I was going.
My thoughts so loud, that I did not hear anything or anyone around me as if there was no one around me.
