I'll just rest my eyes until he wakes up Percy thought until moments later, he himself had drifted off to sleep.

"PERCY!" Someone yelled
Percy yelped and fell off the bed he was lied on, smacking his head against the floor. He heard William jump awake to but Percy groaned and rubbed his head.
Annabeth stood at the door kitted up with her armor smiling at the clone, it was a weak deceiving smile but it was still a hint of hope in her eyes, something.
William smiled crookedly

"Just call me William and this is-"

Percy shushed him immediately and mouthed 'ghost, remember?'

"Uhm...and this is....my room?" William replied much like a question itself and chewed his lip.
Annabeth rose an eyebrow and giggles slightly whilst she shakes her head amused

"Oookkaayy, capture the flags starting now so hurry up," Annabeth informed and walked to William, lifting his head and pecking a kiss on the boys head smiling sadly "I missed you." She muttered and hugged the boy tightly, small tears escaping her eyes, the clone stiffened slightly, confused before slowly hugging back with a smile

"I missed you to I guess, although iv never met you I think we're gonna get along well," William chirped as Percy chuckles rolling his eyes
'oh how you are so wrong' he thought but glances away, sighing at the thought of Annabeth and sighed to himself, he could never face her again, to her he's just another clone ready to die.
Wasn't he?
William got up as Annabeth walked out to give his privacy and Percy sighed and looked to William as the clone pulled out his Riptide and smiles to Percy
"You've got my back right?" The clone asks as Percy rolled his eyes but nodded

"Sure."

William beamed and ran out to catch up with Annabeth and Percy follows, glancing around. The large group were waiting and Lupa smiled to William and sat beside him as they awaited for Chiron. Kids glared at the clone, sharpening their swords or arrows but Lupa howled at then to rid their hatred.
Chiron soon emerges from the big house, trotting over elegantly

"Alrighty campers! You know the rules. All powers alloys but absolutely no killing-" Chiron announced and continues with his orders of which Percy had zoned out, he sighed and awaited his chance to strike the clone down and retrun back to HIS time line, alone.
"And have fun!!"
The horn was blown and campers scurried into the woods, in search of their flag and guard, O'Leary was layed down at the start line, and remains asleep even as some campers tried to wake her up.
Lupa nudges William and they ran off into the woods to their positions. However William separated himself and ran directly to the river

"Is it a right or left to the river?" He asks Percy, he shrugged but flew up into the sky scanning his surroundings before frowning and coming back down

"Right," He answered and William nodded before following the direction of which Percy had said, the forest around then slowly grew silent as William came to a steady walk, except for the crunching of leaves beneath his and Percy's feet. Percy shivers slightly and glances around himself, William paused an sniffed the air before he looked to Percy
"I don't like this, its way to silent." He muttered as Percy nodded,

"Agreed." He muttered just as a few bushes russled causing William to pull out his Riptide with a yelp and hold onto it tightly

"N-Nico? Is...is that you?" William asks, hiding back his fear and wearily scans his surroundings, Percy chews his lip harder, hating the wait, hating what was to come.
Couldn't this just be over with?
Suddenly Nico came out, smiling slightly to William. His eyes were like darts, stick on target, ready to launch.
Percy didn't like it.
Not one bit.
