So once again you guys have the opportunity to get in my head of what I think the next HoO book RR blesses us with will look like.
Before I start you peoples off, I need to say something.
So shush and listen.
When I wrote "The Lost Hero, written by me", I had to guess who the parents were. Well now, I know. So I am following Rick Riordan's version of the characters. Piper has nothing to do with Persephone, Jason and Thalia are siblings and Camp Ceasar Salad is real. For my series of fanfics, I'm following my version of the characters, but here, Rick's versions rule. Get it?
Title: The Son of Neptune
Rating: C
Type: Adventure, friendship, hopefully humor, maybe a touch of romance
Characters: Add, Annabeth, Jason, Piper, Drew, Leo, Jake, Nyssa
OC personalities: Reyna, Dakota, Hazel, Gwen, Bobby, Caleb
OC: The Gayle brothers, Karren
Synopsis: After discovering a new world, not so far from their own, Jason and his friends are sailing straight for it, unsure wheter they'll come out victorious or just start a civil war. But it doesn't take the arrival of a flying boat to get the citizens curious. They already sence something is wrong, way before the flying ship docks.
Disclaimer: The story base, character and settings base was created by Rick Riordan, who owns the Percy Jackson and the Olympians, and Heroes of Olympus rights.

The City
I woke up and had no idea where he was.
A cell. The walls were bricks carved out of grey stone. The floor was the same and there was only one door. The door was of iron bars, so close together he could only fit his arm through. More cells were out in the corridor, torches flaming, hanging on the wall. I rubbed my eyes and looked around. People were in the hallway, two at each side of his cell.
-Excuse me? I asked. The two of them swerved spears pointing at me, all at the exact same time. I raised his hands.
-I’m unarmed, I’m unarmed! Where am I? The two figures lowered their weapons. They were both wearing armour, their helmets silver with a red plume. One was a boy, the other a girl. The girl was African American, with eyes of an impressive cocoa and her features delicately carved. She was pretty, but she looked threatening and mean enough to kick a kitten. The boy had brown bangs falling in his eyes. They both looked well-built and stern.
-We know. We disarmed you the moment you got here.
-Where is here?
-Don’t play games stranger. Where is he? The girl asked, jerking her spear forwards.
-He? Who are you talking about?
-You can not be serious. If you think that I’ll…
-WOW wow, wow! Rey, its okay, its okay. I’ve got this covered. A girl said. She walked towards me. She wore a purple shirt covered by a breastplate and black jeans. A sword was at her side. Her eyes were thin and a color I couldn’t identify, and her hair, light brown curls, was pulled back.
-Hazel, what are you talking about?
-I’m on orders from Lupa; I am to show him camp. Hazel said.
-I am to keep him in the cell.
-Lupa wants to see him. He is harmless as far as she can tell. Do you perhaps doubt her? Hazel smoothly suggested. The girl jerked her sword back and attacked the lock with a key she turned.
-It’s your lucky day. Don’t think they’ll all be like this. She said. She pulled the door open.
-Common. Hazel said. She took his wrist and led him down the corridor, up a flight of stairs. She opened a wooden door and the sunshine nearly blinded him. He squinted.
-Common before Reyna gets ticked. Hazel whispered. I followed her out the door which she closed behind us.
There was a temple right in front of us, houses around them. There was a building that looked like the collleseum too. A creek passed straight in the middle, a log-like bridge right there. Two girls were kneeling collecting water in big vase-like pots. Other people were walking around, dressed in silver armour, but very few of them were. Most people had seemed to take shelter of the chocking heat.
-I’m sorry, Reyna isn’t usually like this. Well, she is. But, oh- never mind. I’m Hazel by the way. Hazel Ducharme.
-I’m… I’m…
-Let me guess: you don’t remember?
-Umm… I’m sorry, but yeah. How do you know?
-You’re what, 16? You’re 16 and you had weaponry on you, yet nobody at this camp has ever seen your face. You didn’t answer any questions when we found you and-
-What?
-You showed up floating face-in near the stream last week. Reyna nearly attacked you. Then Bobby stopped her, and they dragged you out. You were still alive, so Reyna asked you things. You had no idea where you came from or who you were, then you passed out. You were alive and unharmed, so we got you in the dungeon.
-Dungeon? What’s this, Camp Medieval spirit?
-What’s Camp Half-Blood?
-Camp Half-Blood? How should I know?
-For starters you’re wearing a T-shirt with that name on it. Hazel said. I starred down. The shirt I was wearing an orange shirt with something that looked like “Camp Half-Blood” written on it.
-I don’t remember that either.
-Okay, since I have no idea what your name is, I’ll just call you Bob.
-Umm, no.
-Joe?
-No way.
-Tyson?
-Tyson..? The name seemed familiar. I knew someone named Tyson, and I should know who he was.
-Not Tyson either, hmm? Geez you’re picky. What about Add?
-Alright then, Add.
-Cool, and it suites you. Advena means stranger. Common, better get started on that tour before Reyna thinks I’m lying. She’s nice and all but you do not want to lie to her. Let’s go. She said.
Hazel was not giving me any processing time. I woke up in a dungeon guarded by a girl who wanted to kill me, then she’s given me a new name and now I was going for a tour of wherever-we-where.
-Where are we?
-The City. She said walking off.
-Wait, the city of what?
-The City isn’t OF something it’s completely dependant on its own. Eat form the forest, drink from the creek; the rest is given through the gods.
-The what?
-The gods. Aw, Romulus, you can’t be that clueless!
-I don’t remember my name, I’m pretty sure I can.
-Okay, then I’m going to have to break this to you. I apologise, I’m no good at this. Here, come sit down with me. She said, gesturing to the edge of a fountain with some kind of cupid on it, shooting water from the tip of the arrow notched at its quiver. She sat down and so did I.
-Science sucks. She said.
-What? Hazel smacked her forehead.
-First sentence and I screw up. I mean science isn’t true. Lightning, the waves, seasons; it’s not science. It’s the Roman gods.
-Roman gods?
-Yup. Jupiter, Trivia, Juno, all of them.
-Aren’t the Romans just the Greek gods?
-No way, buddy. Greeks were too laid-back. Didn’t take fighting seriously. No discipline, why do you think Rome absolutely creamed those guys in the old days? The Greek gods, well… Sure, they did exist. But after Romans started believing in new, similar, gods, they faded away, and those gods went for power. They still are at power, because they’re immortal. They can’t die, nor can their power.
-That doesn’t make any sense.
-Add, when you’re a demigod, your whole freaking life doesn’t make any sense.
-Demigod?
-Yup. When gods mingle with mortals, mingle and fall in love that is, a demigod is born. Some of us are born by thought, some by magic.
-Athena and Hecate’s children?
-Minerva and Trivia. But yeah. My mom is Trivia. Do you know who your immortal is? No eh? Hmm… We’ll find out. Lupa will at least.
-Who’s Lupa?
-You wouldn’t believe me if I told you. Common. Each god’s children have their own cabin.
-They all look the same, except for the curtain at the door…
-Order and discipline. Two camp rules.
-But… The gods are all different.
-Yes. But we are united. We are one. Why does it matter to you anyways?
-Nothing. I said. Hazel looked at me oddly.
-There are too many gods, more gods then room the camps own, and some of them are maidens. No kids. Empty cabins. Some of the gods are paired up by houses. The wind gods, for example. Ceres and Proserpina too.
-Who?
-Agriculture goddess, spring goddess. Ring a bell?
-Oh, Demeter and Persephone.
-Nobody uses the Greek names, Add. It’ll just make you look like a total loser. But anyways, that’s why we have so little houses. I’ll show you the arena, you will love it Add. She said. As she walked I noticed a tattoo on her arm. Except they didn’t look normal, more like burns. 7 bars, like a grocery-market code with the letters SPQR and a dog paw imprint above.
-What’s with the tattoo? I asked. Hazel looked up at me.
-This? Every summer, the day before everyone goes back to wherever they live and unity breaks, they mark us. SPQR; it’s the motto of the Roman Empire, and camp. Senatus Populusque Romanus. The lines represent each year I’ve been around. I’m 15, and I got here when I was 8. Basic math Add, 8+7=15. Every year I’ve survived. How old are you? Ooh, let me guess, you don’t remember do you? You look 16, so I’ll go with that. The paw…
-You like littlest pet shop?
-So you don’t know your name but you know all about littlest pet shop? So much sense, and realise my brothers and sisters would kill you for saying that. The dog is a symbol of Trivia. It changes depending on your parent. For example Rey would got a plumed helmet and Jason has this… She bit her lip.
-Jason? He the guy that was in the dungeon?
-No, that was Bobby. Anyways what was I saying? Oh yeah, the tattoo changed from person to person unless you have a twin. Well, even then, if there was a year where you did something to majorly disrespect the gods, the camp, Lupa or anything else really you get a red bar, the red color is from your…
-Who’s Jason? Hazel pursed her lips.
-I mustn’t speak of him to you. Not until… Not until we know where you came from. I answered your questions, you answer mine. What’s with the necklace and the beads? You’re not into jewellery are you? ‘Cause that could mean…
-No. No, I… I don’t remember.
-Dammit, how are you supposed to answer my questions if you don’t remember anything? And you’ve got some weird designs on there. Is that a tree? I stared down and rolled the bead she was talking about between my fingers.
-It looks like a tree, so I guess.
-Wow. Out of all things a stupid tree.
-It’s not a stupid tree, it’s an important tree! I replied. Then I frowned, surprised to see the anger in my voice.
-Okay, I’m sorry I insulted the important tree. How do you even know that?
-I… I just do. I said.
-Okay, so is that an important building? She asked pointing at the last one.
-I… Yeah. I think it is. I said. I racked my brains to figure out what the building had that made it important.
-We’ll figure it out Add. You know, I think we should forget the arena and I’ll just take you to see Lupa.
-Who’s Lupa?
-Lupa’s the talking she-wolf in charge of this camp. I blinked a few times.
-No seriously. Who’s Lupa?
-I said you wouldn’t believe me. You’ll see. In front of her, show no weakness. No fear, no confusion.
-Oh that’ll work well.
-You better prey it will. I need to get my armour if we’re going to see Lupa. Do you mind stopping at my place?
-Umm, no.
-Sweet, common. It’s by the creek, behind Neptune and Jupiter’s.
I followed Hazel.
-Just wait here. Don’t get in a fight, don' swear at anyone and don’t go too far away.
-Got it. Hazel disappeared through a thick black theatre-style curtain and into her house.
*Hazel (sort-of)

Hey, I'm new.
Anyway, love ur story. Make some more! I'm really... intrigued. Is that how you spell it?
I'm guessing this is Percy's point of view. If it is, then why does he have a tree design on his bead. He never got a bead like that. Unless... this is another Greek guy's PoV. Like, someone who's senior enough to had to have a pine tree bead.

The She Wolf's palace
I didn’t stay put.
I wandered off to the cabin next to Hazel’s. I stood on the tips of my toes and peeked through a window.
The room, which was obviously a bedroom, was nearly empty. The floor was light wood and there was one wall painted like a map of the world. Different grey and white clumps moved over countries, then disappearing, colors changing and miniature lightning flashing. The ultimate storm-watcher studio. There was a low cot in the corner of the cabin with white linen sheets neatly done. Under it a trunk was tucked. The other walls were painted sky blue, and the one near the bed was decorated with pictures.
The same faces kept popping up. Hazel, Bobby, Reyna and two other girls. I noticed that in the pictures with Reyna, often she was with another boy. Blond with eyes like the sky and a scar on his lip. They were always dressed in armour, often armed. In some pictures they were slightly injured. Black eyes, bloody lips, that kind of thing.
But even with the pictures of happy friends tapped on the walls, the room seemed cold. Unused, lacking of owner. A set of armour was in one corner, and I wondered why the owner didn’t have it on. Then the room started smelling of ozone, the hairs on the back of my neck stood up and I had this urgent feeling in my stomach to back away and run somewhere safe.
But where the heck was somewhere safe? This whole place seemed wrong. From its military style, to its blandness, to the citizens walking on its grounds. It wasn’t a place for me, I knew that much.
The smell persisted and I had to run, so I ran towards the cabin next to it. My arm brushed the curtain and I knew I was safe. I risked peeking in.
This room looked like a living room. The walls were the color of the ocean. The waves seemed to move across them, refusing to stay painted on and still. But after everything else, the gods I had no trouble believing in and even the other cabin, I wasn’t scared or surprised. The floor was rock. No, not rock, coral, and light was emitted from silvery pearls, hanging on the walls. Benches made of driftwood were gathered in a corner. A fire was burning, except it seemed to be burning on water. Probably on oil. There was a part of the cabin that had no floor, but that seemed to be right above the creek, which was deeper then it seemed. In another corner there was a salt-water –don’t ask how I knew- fountain.
-Add! Hazel yanked me out of the cabin. I hadn’t even realised I’d started to walk in.
-Sorry, I, just…
-No, no, no, no, no don’t worry, I won’t tell, it’s cool. Neptune’s house ‘been empty for years anyways. Why did you look inside? Depending on which, it could have driven you mad. Hazel said.
-I don’t know. I looked in that one…
-Jupiter’s.
-Right, and then, I don’t know. I just had a gut feeling about this one. Hazel frowned.
-We really need to take you to see Lupa now. She turned and walked off.
Her purple shirts and jeans’ had disappeared, instead she wore a grey tunic, colors flashing every now and then (which would be very distracting for an opponent) underneath a metal jacket. She wore laced sandals and a helmet. Around her waist she had a kind of belt. In her hand she had a kind of spear, a rectangular shield in the other and at her side a sword. Except it didn’t look like a sword I’d use. Wait, why would I use a sword? This just kept getting better and better.
-The tunic is woollen and color changes from demigod to demigod, like the tattoo. This, she said showing her spear, is not a spear, it’s a Pilum. And the belt is a cinguium. I’m supposed to wear my armour most of the time nowadays, but I just got back from the neighbouring city – a human one- when I remembered it was Reyna’s shift at the dungeons. You’re welcome.
-Yeah, she looked about ready to gut me.
-She’s always looks like that. But she’s actually very sweet if you know how to be with her.
-Armed?
-Funny. But it’s the same thing with her mom, Bellona. Roman goddess of war.
-Who’s her Greek equivalent?
-No one. She’s an all Roman goddess.
-Well how did she come to existence then?
-The dreams of the people. Thoughts about her gathered up and BOOM, there she was. The only reason she was associated to have parents is that the Romans couldn’t understand how their own dreams created some gods. We’re here. Hazel said.
We were in front of a temple building, except this one had curtains, covering the columns and everything. Not exactly the place I’d think up for a she-wolf, but this place had already proven itself nothing like me.
-Remember, no weakness. If you show weakness, she’ll kill you.
-Harsh much?
-It’s practice for battle. If you show fear it gives the enemy energy and hope. I took deep breaths.
-You ready? Hazel asked.
-Yeah, I think. I said. Hazel nodded and walked up the steps, me at her heels.
-Until I call you stay here. Remember, no fear.
-‘Key. Hazel nodded and disappeared behind the curtain. I couldn’t hear her because of the heavy curtain, but when she yelled my name “Add” I heard. I took a deep breath and went to talk to a wolf.
It looked like a forest. Trees, moss and plants everywhere, I even spotted some poison ivy and milkweed. In the back there was a cave. Hazel was standing there, so straight she looked like plywood, Pilum at her side. She motioned for me to approach behind her back.
-You are the unknown stranger? A voice from the cave asked.
-Yes. I said.
-Do you have any idea where you come from?
-No.
-Do you have any idea where you are?
-Yes. The City.
-Excellent, Hazel has informed you. Do you know where the city is?
-No.
-Ah Hazel, your attention to detail is fine, but you forget… San Francisco.
-San Francisco! No, no I can’t, I can’t be here, I can’t be in San Francisco!
-Add, what are you talking about? You can’t go away, if you do monsters will find you and it’s all over.
-San Francisco isn’t safe. I insisted.
-It is, it is, calm down. You’re surrounded by trained soldiers Add, you’re probably trained too. I promise you are safe. Hazel said.
Then I remembered about the “no showing weakness” thing and I figured I was doomed.
I looked up at the cave. A huge white wolf walked out. I guess Hazel’d warned me, but I still think my eyes widened. And I don’t know if it was just me, but she looked troubled, maybe a little annoyed by me.
-Hazel, you may go. Inform Reyna and Bobby they may leave the dungeon, tell Gwendolyn to come here.
-Yes Lupa. She knelt and marched out the door, straight as plywood, but I was pretty sure the second she was outside she ran.
-Did Hazel tell you how we found you?
-Yes.
-How did you get in out creek?
-I don’t know. I don’t remember anything.
-Nothing… Then you probably don’t remember your name, your parents, your status?
-No ma’am. Lupa looked at me and if a wolf could smirk, she did.
-You speak Ancient Greek. You just did, and are this moment.
-I… I did? I said switching back to English.
-This is bad news. Very bad… What was he thinking? Crazy old horse…
-Horse?
-Do you remember any horse? I searched my brain.
-No.
-Do you remember one thing, any thing?
-The beads. On my necklace. They mean things. I don’t know what, I just know they do. I said.
-Hmm… Have you ever heard the name Jason?
-Yeah, Jason. The guy in the Argonautica.
-What about Grace?
Jason Grace
Jason Grace
Jason Grace
Did I know a Jason Grace? I didn’t know any Jason, but Grace was a surname I knew.
-I don't. I said, extremely frustrated with myself. And then it clicked.
Was Jason Grace the Jason Hazel didn’t want to tell me about? Lupa studied me and I was scared to ask.
-For now you will have to stay in Mercury’s house and prey their hospitality is good. I will not give you armour until you are claimed, and I will let you live, for you are not mine to kill. The moment you are claimed, you will have half a citizenship to this city. You may not vote, but you may fight and train.
-What do you mean not yours to kill? I asked.
-You are a strong, brave and powerful hero. Gwendolyn is probably waiting for you: go. She said, totally ignoring me.
But that was my cue to leave.
