Daughter of the Sea || HoO

CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE

Once Tori was pretty positive the Argo II was out of any immediate danger, she returned to the ships deck where her friends were. Annabeth and Frank- who was now human- had left to question Leo. Tori immediately rushed over to Jason side, who was still unconscious. Jason's face was so pale, he might've been dead. She checked his pulse, and he was in fact still alive, but the cut on his forehead was pretty bad and he needed to be treated immediately.

"Help me get him below." She told Percy and Piper. They all lifted the unconscious blonde, with quite a struggle, and got him to his room.

Tori went straight to cleaning the cut, and decided he was lucky enough not to need any stitches. After she wrapped up his head, Tori put her hand on the top of his head to determine the extensive injuries where. "He doesn't have a concussion, but he was fucking close. From what I can sense there is no extreme damage, he's just going to have a killer headache. But we are going to have to force feed him ambrosia and nectar."

Piper looked her, slightly doubtful. "But he's going to be okay?"

"Yep, he just needs rest. We just have wait for electrical socket here to wake up." Tori turned her attention to Percy, "Can you go get the ambrosia and nectar please."

Percy nodded and left the room in search for the supplies. Tori looked over a Piper who had guilt written all over her face. The daughter of Aphrodite looked at Jason with worried filled eyes.

"Hey Piper, are you okay?" Tori asked her. 

"I just feel so guilty," Piper admitted. "The only reason he got hit was because he'd tried to shield me from the Romans. Gods Tori, I can still hear the awful sound of that brick hitting his forehead."

"I promise he will be okay," Tori told her. "I was blessed by Apollo himself with medical abilities, so trust me when I say he's going to be fine."

Piper nodded her head. "Why does he look so pale?"

"Once we get the ambrosia in him, his color will start to come back." Tori explained.

Tori heard Percy in the other room called up to the upper deck, "Annabeth, we need you."

Soon enough the grey eyed girl came rushing in the room. She started spitting out questions at rapid fire, "What's wrong? Is he okay? How bad are the injuries?"

"Annie he's fine," Tori told her calmly. "Jason's just got a bad cut on his forehead, but he doesn't need stitches. He doesn't have a concussion or anything serious to worry about."

This information visibly seemed to take some stress off Annabeth. "Why did Percy call me?"

"I don't know where the medical supplies are," Percy answered her. He leaned up against the door frame. "What did Leo say about firing the ballista?"

Annabeth just sighed and walked over to him. "Come on seaweed brain, I'll tell you everything while we get Tori the supplies."

They both left the room and Tori got to work on an ice pack for Jason. Piper took a seat at the side of the bed,  and took a hold of Jason's hand.  Tori tried to not let the gesture get to her, she knew that Piper still had feelings for him. Annabeth and Percy quickly returned with the supplies and handed them to Tori,

"We're going to back and talk to Leo." Annabeth told her. Both Tori and Piper nodded, and the Percy and Annabeth left the room once again.

Tori placed the ice pack on Jason's head, and quickly force feed him ambrosia. She heard Piper let out a sigh of relief when the color did start to return to his face, just like Tori said it would.

"Do you have any injuries?" Tori asked Piper. "You were also getting objects thrown at you."

"No," Piper said, "Jason took most of it for me."
