(Peter's Point of View)

I groaned as I woke up, my whole body ached but it was a good type of ache... I could tell some thing from within me had changed but I could not tell you what had but I knew some thing has.

I sighed and grunted as I rolled to my hands and feet, I winced as I was still stiff but I had have far worse in the Bowls of Tartarus. I slowly climbed to my feet and began to walk out of my cave. I was hoping to go back to Camp, but part of me did not want to at all... part of me wanted to forget about the.

I rolled my eyes and forced myself to get up and to move to the Camp.

(Scene Change: Camp Half Blood)

(Peter's Point of View)

I made it just in time to see Percy and the rest of the gang to arrive.

We were the first heroes to return alive to Half Blood Hill since Luke, so of course everybody treated us as if we had won some reality TV contest.

According to camp tradition, we wore laurel wreaths to a big feast prepared in our honour, then led a procession down to the bonfire, where we got to burn the burial shrouds our cabins had made for us in our absence.

I refused and disappeared in the shadows.

Annabeth's shroud was so beautiful – grey silk with embroidered owls – Percy told her it seemed a shame not to bury her in it. She then punched him and told him to shut up.

Being the sons of Poseidon, Percy and I did not have any cabin mates, so the Ares cabin had volunteered to make our shroud.

They had taken an old bed sheet and painted smiley faces with X'ed out eyes around the border, and the word LOSERS painted really big in the middle.

It was fun to burn.

As Apollo's cabin led the sing along and passed out toasted marshmallows, Percy was surrounded by my old Hermes cabin mates, Annabeth's friends from Athena and Grover's satyr buddies, who were admiring the brand new searcher's license he had received from the Council of Cloven Elders.

The council had called Grover's performance on the quest ''Brave to the point of indigestion. Horns and whiskers above anything we have seen in the past.''

The Ares cabin and I looked at each other and we had new found respect for each other. I could tell Classie wanted to see how good I was in a fight.

Percy moved back into cabin three. Where did I go? I went to visit the Hunt and let's say there were not too happy that I hardly contacted them, but were overjoyed when I came so soon. I will probably have to tell you one day…

On the Fourth of July, the whole camp gathered at the beach for a fireworks display by cabin nine.

Being Hephaestus's kids, they were not going to settle for a few lame red white and blue explosions.

They had anchored a barge offshore and loaded it with rockets the size of Patriot missiles. According to Annabeth, who had seen the show before, the blasts would be sequenced so tightly they would look like frames of animation across the sky. The finale was supposed to be a couple of thirty meter tall Spartan warriors who would crackle to life above the ocean, fight a battle, and then explode into a million colors. Fireworks exploded to life overhead: Hercules killing the Nemean lion, Artemis chasing the boar, George Washington (who, by the way, was a son of Athena) crossing the Delaware.

I slowly distanced myself from camp, because I was slowly integrating back into the Hunt with the chores and my Wanderings. Sally even invited me to live with Percy and her. I had too many options!

Soon July was over and August had begun and the campgrounds were mostly deserted, shimmering in the August heat. All the campers were in their cabins packing up, or running around with brooms and mops, getting ready for final inspection.

Argus was helping some of the Aphrodite kids haul their Gucci suitcases and makeup kits over the hill where the camp's shuttle bus would be waiting to take them to the airport.

Once again I faded into the background and appeared back at the Hunt, in my own tent. It was pitch black, it was far smaller than the other hunters, but it made more portable and easier to find a place to place it.

Anyways I sensed a call for help, it came from the back of my mind, but I knew who it was immediately, it was Percy! And he was in danger!

I ran into the wall of my tent and shadow traveled towards where I sensed him, when I got there I saw he was near dead, his palm had a huge red welt, oozing and smoking with yellow guck.

I knew what it was right away, a Pit Scorpion. Its venom is only second by the Elder Pythons.

I dragged Percy back into the water, it would help slow down the venom. I began to use a combination of blood control and toxin control to pull out the venom.

I saw a couple of nymphs, I gave them orders and they got help, Chiron blew the horn.

I saw Percy closing his eyes, but I knew he would live now. I held a small green and black sphere in my hand, it was about the size of a BB.

I said to Chiron "Pit Scorpion. Luke betrayed us all."

I got Percy to the Big House where they fixed him up.

I told Chiron and Annabeth everything I knew and what I saw.

They gave me a nod.

I told them "I have to go. Tell Percy 'I am almost always an Iris Message away."

I shadowed traveled back to the Hunt, but I appeared in the campfire.

They were eating dinner I said in a grave tone "Artemis…"

She knew something was wrong, very wrong.

She gathered the Hunters around and I told them the tail, but this time I added what I remembered from reading the book.

Phoebe and Zoe began to rant about males and how they always mess things and hurt people.

I cleared my throat and said hurt "I am glad to know how you truly feel about me…" I turned to walk away, but Zoe lunged at me and said "Sorry, but you are the exception to the male species!"

I sighed and said "They are a few more, than me, but they are very far and few between. One of them is Percy Jackson…"

They nodded.

Artemis said "I have to tell father."

I said "You could, but I know Chiron will soon."

She gave a nod and sat down with the hunters.

I looked up at the moon and then back down at Artemis and the Hunt, I said "I have to blow some stream, beware. I will contact you in a day or so." I did not wait before I shadow traveled away.

I went to Alaska because that was the only place where I could let go…

Let's say I have not slept that good that night in a very, VERY long time.

(Line Break)

(Peter's Point of View)

I returned to the Hunt after about two days and I had an earful when I got back.

Anyways I remembered an offer that Sally made me about moving in with them, I told her I would have to think about it.

I told the Hunt, some of them were happy that I actually got a friend (that was a man, because they are some things that only guys can do) others (Zoe, Artemis) were not very happy about me leaving.

I told them I would visit and that they could visit me when they wanted.

I said my goodbyes before I shadow traveled to Percy's and Sally's apartment.

I knocked on the door and I heard people moving, Percy answered the door. I looked down and I saw I was wearing my black Trench Coat, black Cargo Pants and black military steel toed combat boots.

I rubbed the back of his neck nervously and said "I was wondering if your offer is still up Sally?"

Percy looked at his Mom and she smiled and said "Of course it is Peter!"

I smiled gratefully and said "Thank you."

Percy asked "What the Hades is going on?!"

Sally said "I offered Peter to live with us and maybe I could adopt him…"

Percy gave a smile, but I could tell it was forced.

I told them "I do not have to live with you two twenty four seven, but I need a place to stay from time to time, and besides. Percy you need to stay sharp otherwise you will get yourself killed."

Sally gave a nod and I said "Ok…"

I shrugged and said "I can see you do not like the idea Percy, sorry. I guess I will be going now…" I turned around and began to walk away

Percy said "Come here brother!"

I gave him a rare, warm smile.

I hoped I could befriend him and have a true brother. I hope Percy will help me become who I truly am again.
