Secrets of the Past
Chapter 2
Piper sat on one of the beds.
"After the Titan War, I was sent into the void of Chaos and reincarnated as Desmond Miles. Now, what you're about to see all happened when Hera 'kidnapped' me, or so she thought." Percy said as he took out his iPhone and showed her a video.
(A/N: This is the part where you should go and read 'Assassin Creed Kept Behind Enemy Lines' by mnp1689. The video that Percy is showing Piper is the story mentioned above.)

Piper sat there in complete shock. "Does anyone else know about this?"She asked.
Percy nodded. "Thalia. I like her a lot, but I've learned to back off, since she joined the hunters," He spat, venom in his voice when he mentioned the hunters. "Annabeth has turned cruel," he continued. "She keeps making fake promises. Once I wanted to propose to her, so I planned a date. She said she'd come. I waited for three hours, but she never showed up. Later, when I asked her about it, she said that she had been very busy. That's how it started. First it was not showing up for a date, then it was not showing up for everything. She acted like I have no right to tell her to doanything."
Just as he finished his speech, Thalia burst into the room, furious. "You have anything to break? I can do that for you. I need to destroy something, anything."
Percy stood up and put his hands on her shoulders, stopping her. "What happened, Thals? Why do you want to break something? Clarisse beat you in a spar?" He asked.
"Not funny, Kelp Head." She grumbled. "There were too many members in the Hunt, so Artemis decided to hold a competition. The last 16 members left would stay in the Hunt. The rest would no longer be members. I had just finished two back-to-back solo quests doing some of the Labors of Hercules and I came back on the same day as the competition. I was very weak and tired and I didn't make the cut." She said, ashamed of herself. But in a moment the shame was replaced with anger. "That idiot goddess. Just because she couldn't handle so many members and she didn't listen to my idea of dividing the Hunt into two groups, so many of us got kicked out of the Hunt. It was my life," She said, biting back a sob.
Percy's eyes widened. "So you aren't in the Hunt anymore?" He asked. Piper hit him on the head. "No need to rub it in, Seaweed Brain!" She said, and he flinched, remembering the nickname Annabeth used to call him. But the new revelation by Thalia brought him hope. Maybe they could start again?
Unbeknownst to them all, a certain daughter of Athena was watching everything from the shadows.
