JASON GRACE

JASON AND PIPER were having a peaceful time. Which is rare for Demigods. Peace and Demigods usually don't get along.

"Hey Pipes?" Jason asked breaking the silence. "Hmm?" Replied Piper, still looking in front of her.

Jason was nervous to ask what he wanted to. And no, he wasn't gonna propose to Piper. They were only 16 for gods sake. "You aren't gonna break up with me like that again, are you?" He finally asked, fiddling with the hem of his sleeves. That wasn't a question you just asked your girlfriend. He didn't meet her eyes.

But Piper looked like she understood and looked at him, "No, of course not." She said with that beautiful smile of hers. Jason finally looked up at those kaleidoscopic eyes. They were showing sincerity and somehow reflected truth.

When their eyes met, Jason finally noticed those eyes, they were ominously blueish today, much like Jason's, except his were totally blue. He wondered whether Piper could change her eye colour according to will. Was it something she kept a secret? Maybe she didn't even know this ability? Or maybe it was just a trick of light.


Jason nodded and smiled. Piper smiled too and rested her head on his shoulder and snuggled into it. Jason felt himself smile more. He was looking around when his gaze landed on Leo and Calypso. They were having a stroll near the strawberry fields.

Leo was speaking, making various motions with his hands, probably cracking some of his corny jokes. Calypso was laughing heartily. If possible, Jason smiled wider. He was happy for him. He looked over to see Piper, she seemed to be looking at the couple too. They both loved Leo like a brother. Piper perhaps more than Jason. While Jason was just a memory, Leo was actually there with her at the Wilderness School. They were both there for each other when nobody was.

They looked at each other again. Then Piper kissed him.

Jason had no idea about how long they'd been sitting and kissing when Jason felt weird. No, it wasn't like he was gonna pass out. For once. He felt weird in his stomach. It was a tingling and tugging sensation at the same time time.

Piper seemed to notice something different. She stopped and looked at him. "Everything okay?" She asked, concerned. Jason smiled, thinking it was just a normal stomachache from something he ate, he shook his head, "Yeah, why?" He replied. Piper sighed, "What's wrong Jase?" She asked. Jason felt a sudden urge to answer honestly. "My stomach is feeling weird. It's a tugging and tingling feel. I want to and don't want to puke at the same time." He answered like monotonously like a robot. He then realised that Piper must've laced her voice with charmspeak. He gave her a look. "Sorry-" she started sheepishly but didn't hear the end of what she was saying.

The sensation got sharper like a knife that he got stabbed with was being twisted and he shut his eyes tight. Then as soon as it came, the pain was gone.

When Jason opened his eyes, he was at the same place.

He was at Camp Half-Blood.

But it looked different.

Very different.

A split second later, Piper was by his side again. She let out a relieved sigh when she saw Jason alright. "Oh gods! I was so worried! You just disappeared into thin air leaving dust! I was so worried! Don't ever do it ag-" Piper started to ramble but he put a palm on her mouth, "Shhh... I am okay. See?" He comforted, indicating himself with his free hand.

Piper bit his finger. "HEY!" Jason exclaimed while ribbing his ring finger which was bitten by his girlfriend. "What was that for?" He asked, still rubbing the finger. Piper just shrugged.

Then Leo and Calypso appeared out of thin air too. Only then Piper seemed to notice that CHB looked different. "Wait... It seems like winter." Piper wondered out loud. "No shit Sherlock." Leo said with his arms crossed. Piper glared at him. "You know what I mean." She replied with her arms crossed as well.


"Okay okay! Before you two start bickering like kids, let's find out what happened. Okay?" Jason ordered. They both nodded, the ghost of their annoyed looks still etching on their faces. "Fine!" They chorused.

"If we are at the Camp, why don't we go to the Big House? Chiron should be there...." Calypso suggested. She was still a bit awkward around some of us. We all agreed and decided to make our way to the Big House.

When we were only a few metres away from our destination, we saw a few, cut that, a lot of people standing there. Jason did a headcount. There were 16 adults, or so they seemed, 7 little kids, 1 more girl who seemed older than the others, a baby in a woman's arms and....... Thalia?

Wait, what is Thalia doing here? She should be with the hunters in Washington. And what is she doing with these strangers? Well, nothing seemed to be in place, so no biggie.

Jason looked next to him. The other three seemed to notice the strangers too. We all looked at each other, our expressions filled with confusion.

Then one of the adults looked at them. The adult looked like...... him. Blue eyes, blonde hair, a scar on the lips, glasses and everything. Creepy. He then said something to the others with him. They turned around too.

What the actual fuck? Jason thought he was hallucinating. The adults looked like older versions of him and his friends. He looked at his friends again. He seemed to be doing that a lot in past few minutes. Again, they had the same expressions: utter shock.

"Hey! Please can you come here?!" A woman who looked a lot like Piper yelled. We instantly went there. When we reached there, Piper spoke up, "You charmspoke us!" "Yes, it's grown a lot stronger over the years." The lady, who Jason was now calling Piper Sr. as she looked and behaved just like her, said.

"What do you mean?" Calypso asked.

"Well, we are you from future." A beautiful lady said. She had long caramel hair which were tied in a braid just like Calypso, if not neater. Her eyes were dark. They had a far away look. She was the lady he mentioned earlier who was holding a baby. The four of us looked between her and Calypso like watching a tennis match.

Then Leo seemed to realise what she said.

"What do you mean? The future?" Leo asked.

Then a not appeared out of nowhere. It was jet black with silver ink saying "Jason Grace, Piper McLean, Leo Valdez, Calypso" on it.

We looked at each other and Jason opened it.
