Ok, so while writing this chapter, I realised I had nothing to show when in the series this would fit into. This story after the Battle Of the Labyrinth. I do plan on making the great prophecy slightly further away from the actual date it occurred. On that note, enjoy chapter 5.

Clarisse POV

You know that moment, the one where you question everything, then just go fuck it? I had reached that point. I had completely lost my mind. I, Clarisse La' Rue, the daughter of Ares, had kissed Perseus Jackson, who by all rights was my nemesis. I had also shown him more than any other, both literally and figuratively. I had spent years building walls, high enough that they couldn't be climbed, and strong enough that they couldn't be broken. But I was wrong. Not even three hours with Perseus Jackson, and those walls came crashing down. This all went through my head the moment our lips met. When he didn't immediately return the gesture, I pulled away, tears streaming down my face, and turned to leave, when his hand reached out and cupped my face, turning me back to him. I looked down, and spoke in a heartbroken voice. "I'm sorry. We can just pretend this never happened and MMMP!" I broke off, eyes wide, as I felt him draw me closer and press his lips to mine. My brain just… broke. No thoughts, no how-to-kill-Michael-Yew plans, nothing. Just, empty space. System reboot in 3…2…1… With my brain back in gear, I just melted into his arms. The kiss had passion behind it, and nothing to say he was doing this for the sole purpose of making me feel better. No, this meant something. But at that moment, I didn't give a flying fuck what that something was. I was ecstatic; if Zeus was to smite me with his master bolt, I would die happy.

He eventually pulled away, leaving me a little disappointed, but I knew that we couldn't be making out for hours. Well, we could but it would raise too many questions. When he pulled away, he smiled at me bashfully. "I may have wanted to do that too. Though for a longer time." My heart soared. Could this get any better? He smiled sheepishly, and asked "So are we a couple now?" I couldn't help it. I launched myself at him, wrapping my arms around his neck and my legs around his waist. He stumbled back a bit, but stood standing, and wrapped his arms around me, with one hand on my back, the other on my ass. "I'll take that as a yes?" He asked. I rolled my eyes. I didn't even bother verbally answering him. I just kissed him, which he eagerly returned. When we eventually did part, I said, quite disappointedly, "Come on. We have to get back for breakfast, and I need to be back in my cabin before so.

As we walked back to camp, I looked at the torn clothes in my hand, and realised something. "Hey Percy?" He turned to me with a raised eyebrow that made him look kind of cute. "yes?" Shaking my head to clear my thoughts, I asked him "You know how last night you were a creature mixed between human and wolf?" Looking at me weirdly, he nodded slowly, and started talking like I was a five year old. "Yes Clarisse. I'm this thing called a werewolf." Punching him in the arm, hard enough that it hurt a little, but soft enough that he knew I was fooling around, I continued talking. "Yeah, but wasn't the one that bit you in the form of a wolf, not a mix?" He stopped walking and tilted his head to the side, like a dog I thought.

"Uhhh, yeah it was. Does that mean there are three forms rather than two?" I looked at him in slight irritation. "How the hell am I supposed to know that? It's your life, not mine." Wincing at the harshness of my reply, I muttered a sorry. A ghost of a smile appeared on his face before disappearing. He looked confused, before closing his eyes and concentrating. Before I could tell him he looked like a dork, he changed. Black fur started to grow from his skin, covering him entirely in seconds. His whole body began to shrink, and his face lengthened into a muzzle. He was midnight black, with a small line of white down his muzzle. He opened his eyes, which were a blood red, making him look a little scary, (And I will kill anyone who repeats that I was ever scared of a pair of eyes. I'm looking at you) before looking up at me, then back to himself. A smile, or a wolf's equivalent, spread over his face, and he started bounding around like a pup. It was as if a retarded deer had taken the form of a wolf, with all the bounding, running and tripping over. It was quite amusing. I had to laugh when he started chasing his tail.

Percy POV

Honestly, I didn't expect it to work the first time. I had expected to look like a mortal kid trying to sprout wings that they did not posses. So I was happy when it worked. At first I had no idea how to work, as it was a form I was unaccustomed to, so I just tried to walk in a straight line. Obviously that worked nowhere near as well as it did in my head. I bumped into a tree, fell over a log, and smacked my head on a rock. After that fiasco, I shook my head and noticed my tail. Obviously I had known it was there, but I had a thought. A dumb thought, but a thought nonetheless. I've seen dogs chase their tails, and they make it look so difficult. Surely it's not that hard. So I tried to grab it while I was sitting still, but it moved when I reached around with my head. I growled, and stood up, before trying again, only for it to be slightly out of reach. Narrowing my eyes, I sped up, until I was just running in circles in the one spot. I never caught the damn thing. I heard laughter, and stopped to look. Well, I stopped, but my eyes kept spinning, so the world was a blur in my state of dizziness. I stumbled and fell to my side, still dizzy. The laughter increased tenfold. When I could see straight, I saw Clarisse with a smile on her face, shaking her head slightly. She looked very beautiful when she had a genuine smile on her face, rather than a scowl.

I thought about my human form and transformed back. Thankfully I had my clothes on, though there wasn't anything to hide in current company. "That went better in my head." I said, getting to my feet. She rolled her eyes. "I bet it did. What were you even trying to achieve? Were you trying to become that cartoon Tasmanian devil?" I scoffed. "Of course not. I figured that I could catch it. Dogs make it look so difficult." I said, getting quieter with each word. She burst out laughing. Shaking her head at me, she said, more to herself than me, "Why am I dating you again?" "Because you love me". With a sly smirk, she stepped closer and ran a finger from my neck to my chest, making my breath hitch, before whispering in my ear "Hmmm, you know I do." She pulled back with an alluring look on her face, before she turned and continued walking with a slight sway in her hips. She may not be the hottest girl in camp, but she sure as hell knew how to get a guy interested. A small whine left my throat, and I hurried to catch up with her.

Clarisse POV

We reached the borders of camp just before wakeup, when we had to split up. We decided to keep our relationship secret, as if people found out, they would find out about Percy's… gift? Curse? I don't know. It depends on how you see it. Personally, I see it as both. The curse part being the uncontrollable beast on the full moon. Everything else is pretty sweet.

I needed to get rid of my clothes, so I walked past the heart and muttered an apology to Hestia, before throwing the tattered clothing in. I turned to the Ares cabin, and made my way across. I entered my cabin, but stopped when a voice said. "Where have you been? I woke up and you were gone." I turned with a sigh, and saw my brother Michael, who stood with his hands on his hips. Michael may be one of the stupidest campers I've ever known, but he's still my brother, and thus, I have to live with him. It really makes it difficult to fuel my argument that Ares' kids aren't morons.

"I went into the forest. I woke up early, and wanted time to myself. Do I need your permission to do that? Don't answer that." I said, turning back to the bed in the corner of the room. The councillors always got the best beds, which in my cabins case, was in the corner. Because I was the only girl, it was walled off, so I had some privacy. I may have come back earlier to get clothes, but I could smell Percy on my current attire. That in itself wasn't an issue, as I kind of liked it, but I had just told my brother I had gone to the forest. There is no way I could really explain why I smell of the sea, so I had to change… that and I had forgotten to get underwear while I was here. Well, no, not forgotten. One of my other brothers had started to wake up, so I had to high tail it out of there before he emdid/em wake. Speaking of which, they should be waki- The call of a conch horn blared across the camp, startling many of my brothers awake. -ing up now. Perfect timing. Groans erupted from the group of boys on the floor that had fallen out of bed. I had to stifle a giggle, as I did have a reputation to uphold. Calming myself, I got the boys up and moving when I started screaming at them. Ordinarily, they would have called me a hypocrite, but I was dressed, clean and my area of the cabin was tidy. Therefore I had the right. Within five minutes they were ready, and the cabin was at least presentable. Hey, I may not be a daughter of Aphrodite, (clearly), but I still liked the cabin to be tidy. The conch sounded again, signalling it was time for breakfast. We headed out, with me in the lead, everyone else complaining about how early it was. I bet they wouldn't be complaining if they found out I'd been awake for the past five hours.

Clarisse POV

"Come on, just focus."

"I'm trying! You're not helping you know." I retorted. He looked at me with an eyebrow raised.

"You have your hands on my waist and thigh. Do you have any idea how horny I am right now? Why are you even doing that? This doesn't require you to do that." Percy smirked and said. "No it doesn't. And yes, I do have an idea. Its enough that I can smell it quite strongly."

I snorted. Then I had an idea. "I'll tell you what, how about we make a deal?" He gained a sudden interest, and straightened up. "Go on." He said. "If we go on with this lesson for one more hour, WITHOUT interruptions or sexual advances, I'll fuck you after. How's that?" He extracted his hands lighting fast and said "Deal."

"Good. Now, explain it to me again." He sighed, before remembering the deal and explaining.

"In order to control the water, you have to focus on it. Think of nothing else, see nothing else, and try to hear as little as possible. When you have focused on it, try and get a little amount to float. A tennis balls' worth should suffice. To do this, imagine you are holding your hand under it, keeping it aloft." Nodding at him, I turned back to the sea in front of us. I went and sat at the waters edge, and turned to him. "Do not, I repeat NOT, make any levitate to make me feel as though I achieved something. Got it?" He nodded, allowing me to attempt the task at hand.

A couple of days after we had gotten together, Percy suggested we try and see how far my hydrokinesis went. I had accepted, and we set tonight as our first 'lesson'. I had honestly not expected to be able to do anything, but I tried anyway.

I focused on the water like he said, and to my surprise, almost immediately, I felt a tug in my gut. The surprise made me almost lose control, but I refocused on the sea. I concentrated hard, and to my utter and complete shock, a small ball of water levitated from the sea to my eye level. It was only the size of a golf ball, but that was still more than I expected. I concentrated again, and willed the ball to slowly float towards me. When it got to an arms length away, I reached out, and grabbed it. Or at least, I tried to. When my hand connected, I lost concentration, and the ball turned back into water, slipping through my fingertips. I didn't care though. I had done what I thought impossible. I shot to my feet with a smile on my face, and turned to my boyfriend to see an identical smile. "I'll admit, it took a little longer than I expected, but congratulations." Cocking my head to the side in confusion, I asked "Why? How long did it take?" Looking up at the stars, he started pointing at things absently, before looking at me and saying "About three quarters of an hour? Not certain though." I stared at him. emSurely not? It only felt like a few minutes…/em "I suppose that close enough to an hour…" I said, walking up to him with a sultry tone. His eyes lit up, and asked "Here, my cabin or the woods?" I smiled and wrapped my arms around his neck. "Hmmm, lets go with the woods. Where we were our first time." He smiled, nodded, and before I realised what he was doing, we disappeared, before reappearing where I wanted to be. He answered the unspoken question with "Vapour travel. Like teleportation but nowhere near as fast." Smiling at him, I pressed my lips against his. He pushed back just as hard, allowing me to slip me leg behind his, pull away and push him onto his back. He landed with an Oomph, before I jumped him and straddled him. Licking my lips, I looked at him hungrily, a look he shared.

"Time for some fun…"

A/N I'm terribly sorry that i haven't updated in so long. I was struggling with writing the get-together of Percy and Clarisse. Also, i am aware of the coding that appears when i publish a new chapter. It doesnt show up until it is actually published. When you get a 'new chapter' message, please wait an hour or so so i can fix it. Cheers.
