***Ember's POV***

I stared at Silena, thoughts running through my head. Where did everyone go? Why did Doc, Xander and Lysias expel themselves? So, technically, Percy is a father? How many years have went by? Glacier is maybe fifteen...

"Ember?" I heard someone ask. I turned to see who called my name. 

"Hello, Clarisse. Is there something that you wish to ask us?" I asked, politely. 

"Yeah...Is Percy Lysias?" Her question caught us all off guard, causing Silena to spit her drink out. 

"Yes. He is."

"The who was that other person? I think they called him Eirwen?" 

"I'm not sure...to be honest. But I think that that is Percy, but he just changes his appearances and acts differently. But I'm not positive."

"Okay...Thanks Ember!" she sprinted back to the Ares table. 

"What was that? You being nice to an Ares camper?" Ethan asked. 

"Ares campers are campers too!" Silena shouted, then dumped a glass of wine over his head. 

"Thanks Silena. Thanks," he muttered, taking her forearms in his hands, glaring at her. I flung myself over the table, knocking him to the ground. 

"Screw off, will you!?" I punched him in the jaw. 

"Charles! Cut it out," Bianca caught my fist in her hands. 

"This doesn't concern you, Bianca!" Ethan growled. She looked at him in utter shock and slapped him across the face. He fell back to the ground, his face red.

"Gods you all are so immature!" Zoe called, tearing Bianca away from Ethan by the waist. Bianca broke free and punched Ethan in the throat. 

"Guys! STOP IT!" Thane shouted. He's usually quiet, so it scared us all a bit. 

"My friend has a valid point. You all are acting so...childish. And that's saying a ton coming from me!" Terrell nodded. 

"He just told the world who I am!" Bianca shouted, lunging at Ethan.

"He was practically groping Silena!" I turned to look at her. A sympathetic smile on my face, I said, "Sorry babe." 

"Why did we ever join this unit?" Brisa asked Lexi, ignoring all of us. 

"I think it was because of all the cute boys." All the boys looked at Lexi. "JK! None of you are that cute. Except maybe Luke..." 

"Close your mouth, Lexi. You'll catch flies," Brisa warned her seriously. Lexi nodded. 

"Is this what Percy would want?" Thane asked suddenly. It caught all of our attention. He looked at the ground sadly. 

"I thought you didn't know him..." My sentence trailed off.

"Didn't know him? He's my half brother. Whether or not you cared to know..." his voice trailed off. 

"Whoa...Prissy is your brother?" a shocked voice asked. I turned, finally realizing that we had no other choice but to reveal ourselves. It was, once again, Clarisse. I flipped my hood off at the same time Silena did. 

"Hey, Clarisse," Silena ran over to her and hugged her. We were all interrupted with a bright flash of light. The gods stood there, their arms crossed. Zeus just looked angry. 

"Where is he?" Zeus thundered. 

"Whom are you searching for?" a voice called behind them. They turned to see Glacier standing there, a blank look on her face.
