It's been a year since Lee went back to Tartarus. Solisse, Molly and Fos make frequent visits to the camps now. They're actually here for the week. I'm sitting on half blood hill with everyone from the prophecy a year ago minus Lee when Lady Artemis comes through the barrier and comes over to us.
"How was your trip?" Thalia asks her. They've become considerably closer over the past year and Lady Artemis has been making frequent trips to Tartarus.
"Productive actually." She tells us happily. "I actually brought some people back with me this time."
"Kori, stop getting distracted." A male voice says from the other side of the barrier. He sounds a little bit like Lee.
"Please. This is the first time I've been up here." A girls voice responds.
"Come. Now." He says sternly. I can hear the rustling and crunching of leaves being moved by someone dragging their feet.
"Don't give your brother that. He's right. It's my first time too but we're supposed to be staying close to Amazon." That's definitely Maria. She comes through the barrier and everyone jumps up, she looks older now. A 11 year old Kori comes through after her. Finally a young man around the age of 22 comes in. He takes one look at Kori (who has started to bug the niads), closes his eyes and shakes his head.
"Kori, I mean it. Come. Here." He says. When he reopens his eyes and it's definitely Lee. Who else has red, gold, green, blue and black eyes. She gets a mischievous gleam in her eyes and his eyes widen. "Kori, no."
"This will be fun." Maria says.
"Maria! Don't encourage her." He says then turns back to the girl. "Kori, no."
"Oh, but Kori yes." The girl says and takes a dagger out of her boot. She lungs at him with amazing speed and accuracy but his appearance changes for only a second then changes back but now she no longer has a dagger. "You're no fun." She complains.
"If you're going to keep doing this I'll stop helping you." He tells her.
"Sorry, Hunter." She says.
"Where did Kelly go?" Maria asks looking around.
"Right here." A familiar voice says from the other side of the barrier.
"Stay there and don't hurt any of the demigods." Maria tells her.
"As you wish." Kelly replies. We all run up the hill to the top. Spending time with Annabeth has made me notice more. Lee doesn't seem to recognize us and I notice that he has 2 rings now, the one that holds his weapons and a plane silver one. Lady Artemis reaches them first and stops us. She turns back to her brother and sister.
"Hunter, do you remember them?" She asks him. Why wouldn't he remember?
"You know very well that if they were part of the 17 years, I won't remember." Lee tells her.
"Forgot us so soon." Nico says with a smirk. He's become more outgoing.
"I didn't forget about you and Will. Bianca has a lot of pictures. It's almost at a stalkerish point." He tells them. Apparently Hades lied to Nico and Bianca actually fell into the pit. She could somehow see everything and when she landed she was living again. According to Nico she can breathe there without fire water.
"Who are you calling a stalker?" A female voice says from behind the barrier and a 21 year old Bianca Di Angelo walks through carrying a baby and holding hands with a little boy who looks to be 4.
"Dad!" The little boy yells breaking free of Bianca's grasp and running to Lee. Lee picks him up and turns to Bianca.
"I said your amount of photos is almost stalkerish." He tells her as she takes the few steps over then kisses her. "Why did you bring the kids?"
