Reunited: Chaos Story

Chapter 4 (Not edited)

Percy POV

"Percy!"

"Hey, man! Where you been?"

"Oh my gods! I haven't seen you in so long!"

"What the hell?"

"Whoa, whoa. Ok everybody slow down," I make a time out sign. Everybody shuts up. "One at a time."

"Where were you for the past 5 years?" Someone demanded as she elbowed her way to the front of the crowd.

"Pipes! How ya doing?" I squirmed a little under her intense glare.

"Don't 'Pipes' me! We all thought you were dead! This is not a joke!" She looked like she was on the verge if a hysterical breakdown.

"Calm down, I'll explain everything," I try to counsel her.

"You better or I'll... I'll sic Cerberus on you!" She threatened while pointing a finger at me.

"You better listen to her, Percy. She's become pretty close to him," Jason threw an arm around Piper's shoulders and nodded at me like he just saw me 5 minutes, not years, ago.

I nod back. "Hey, man. Have you seen Frank, Hazel, or Leo anywhere?"

Jason scratches the back of his neck. "Uhh... I think Frank took Hazel on a picnic-"

"Which is the cutest thing ever!" Piper gushes and added, "Besides you and Annabeth of course."

"And I think Leo is somewhere in Bunker 9," Jason finished.

"And Grover?"

"Doing Lord of the Wild stuff."

"Still with Juniper?" I grinned.

"As mushy gushy as ever. Have you seen Annabeth? Just imagine her face when she sees you. After she hurts you, of course." Jason laughed.

I chuckle. "I did, actually. We saw her on Olympus. She would've come but she had to do godly stuff."

"Hey! What's going on here?" The crown jostled as someone tried to push through. I noticed with interest that Piper's eyes flashed angrily and Jason tensed considerably. A mop of dark brown hair popped out, followed by a body clothed with the usual, orange Camp Half-blood shirt and jeans.

"What did I about conjugating in the middle of the road? A road is for walking, not standing." The boy said haughtily. I noted with surprise that it's the same boy from before. The one who pointed a sword at Luke, Jax, and I.

I hold out my hand. "I'm Percy and this is Luke and Jax. Nice to meet you."

He eyed my hand before snorting. "Caleb, son of Poseidon."

I looked at him, surprised. As I study him some more, I start to see the similarities between him and Poseidon. Although he has brown eyes, the overall bone structure is the same.

"That's cool. I'm a son of Poseidon too," I held out my fist for a fist bump. Caleb snorted again and ignored it like he did with my handshake.

"Okaaay then..." I said. Everybody stands there, shifting from foot to foot. I suddenly remembered something. "Chiron called a meeting in the Big House. All counselors including the Seven and Talia need to be there."

"Well? Is somebody going to fetch them?" Caleb demanded.

"Yes, Caleb, somebody is going to get them. Go and tell every counselor to meet us in the Big House," Piper said, charmspeak dripping from every word like syrup. His eyes glazed over and he gave a dopey nod and walked away.
