Sally Gets The Call From Alaska (Part Two)

Sally Jackson woke up with a smile plastered on her face, which was a sensation she hadn't felt in a while. She almost forgot what it was to smile for a long time. Every time she did smile, something would happen that would remind her of her missing son Percy Jackson. Which was basically every time she walked around the house. Or went anywhere, for that matter.

Like last week. Oops! She would look and see how she forgot to clean up after supper last night. She smiled thinking of how silly that was of her. She smiled how Paul was working late that night and just made the mess worse when he came home. She smiled thinking of how Percy wasn't a neat child. Of course, as soon as her brain thought anything about her missing son, even his name, her mind would shut down and she would feel like collapsing.

But this time it was different. She knew her son was alive. At least for know. He promised he would make it home, and Sally wanted that promise to happen more than anything at that moment of time. She listened to the message about forty times. "Mom. Hey, I'm alive." Those words would replay in her head. She actually had a dream that night after the message of those words. Percy saying those words. It brought her comfort.

She knew she had to contact camp. She needed a golden drachma, but she carry drachma around much. Only when she was driving Percy to whatever battles he needed to go to, or whatever demigods he needed to rescue. But he turned sixteen, and then he didn't need to be driven anywhere as much with the war over. So, really, there was no use. She knew better than to Iris-Message Percy first, he could be in combat and get distracted.

The only way she could find one was if she went into Percy's room. Honestly, she hadn't touched a lot in his room. She dusted once in a while and picked up the floor and changed the sheets and swept, but that was really all. None of his clothes had moved from their place in the closet. His room wasn't rearranged. Everything was almost exactly the same as when Percy was there. Some people may have found it gross that at first she didn't want to move the candy bar wrappers from six months ago still laying on the floor, and it was, but Sally had barely even opened the door to Percy's room. And, she felt like if she was cleaning up and organizing his things, it was like saying she was getting over and accepting the fact that Percy wasn't going to be there to do it himself.

Sally smiled as she walked in. The room wasn't as messy as she had seen it, she had cleaned up the candy bar wrappers, but everything valuable object in it was untouched. She frowned, thinking about how not cleaning was a way Gabe Ugliano had lived. She made a vow to tell Percy to start cleaning up more when he got home. Not if, but when he got home. She decided that today was the day she was going to clean the room fully. But first thing was first, she needed to find a drachma.

Sally thought she had looked for hours by the time she found one. It was under his bed, tucked away, but she had found one. She smiled as she found a rainbow right outside her door. It was like saying that Percy was going to be home soon. Contact camp and tell them. She thought it was Iris, the rainbow goddess, sending a message by putting a rainbow right outside the room. Either that or she was just going delusional.

"After every storm comes a rainbow. Rainbows can symbolize hope," Sally remembered telling her son that when he was six years old. He didn't get it at the time, but Sally always thought that after ever storm came a bright spot, a rainbow. Even though that doesn't happen much in the life of a demigod. She knew Percy was always her bright spot. Even if he had been away at so many boarding schools, he was the kind of person that could brighten up Sally's day.

She shook her head, ridding of her thoughts and threw the coin into the rainbow. "O' Iris, goddess of rainbow, accept my offer," Sally said as she thought about who to call. She thought about calling Annabeth, though she didn't know if that would be a great idea. Maybe Annabeth was in the middle of something and needed the news to be delivered to her just in case. She new that was silly. Annabeth would say she always has time to hear news about Percy, but Sally didn't think Annabeth was right to call right now. Or at least, not direct the message to Annabeth. Sally wanted the news to be delivered to her. Finally the right name came into her head. "Show me Chiron at Camp Half-Blood."

The image shimmered until she found herself facing the centaur in wheelchair form. He was sitting in the Big House, and there was a bunch of campers gathered around. She couldn't make out what one girl was saying. She look strong. Sally remembered a description Percy had said that matched the girl. That girl was Clarisse La Rue. "Chiron!" She called.

The centaur turned, his warm eyes that held so much sadness and despair in them. But there was also that glimmer of hope in his eyes. The glimmer of knowing that there is something worth fighting for. The centaur smiled. "Hello, Sally." Some of the campers–who must have been new–had their eyes widened. Sally was the mother of the hero that everyone at camp was talking about. Or lack of talking. The senior councilors didn't like to talk much about Percy. It brought so much sadness. But Percy was a big part of everything, so it must have been hard not to hear about the great deeds of Percy Jackson. "Sorry, but we haven't pinpointed the location of the Roman Camp–"

Sally cut Chiron off. "I got a call. A call from Alaska," Sally said. The rest of the camp looked confused on why this call from Alaska was so important. Why Sally was telling them such information. "It was from Percy." A round of gasps came out from the campers. Murmurs spread out. Some smiles were exchanged, while others looked unconvinced, but they wanted to believe it.

"What did he say?" Annabeth asked, loudly, and everyone fell quiet.

Sally smiled at her son's girlfriend of four months. "I'll play it for you." Sally went over to the phone on the wall. She typed in her voicemail password that allowed her to view all saved message. She played the message, and turned back to the campers. Some had huge smiles plastered on their faces. Others, who probably didn't know Percy as well, or at all, had a small smile on their face.

"That idiotic Seaweed Brain can't go ten minutes without being on a quest now can he?" Annabeth smiled, joking. Even in the seriousness of the situation of the quest, Annabeth didn't seem like she had any doubts of him returning alive. Everyone smiled wider, probably from seeing Annabeh smile for the first time in months.

"This tells us many things," Chiron said. "It confirms our suspicions of him being at the Roman Camp," Chiron said, but Sally could tell he knew all along. "It also tells he has some of his memory back."

"How does it tell he has some of his memory back?" One camper asked. Sally recognized him as one of the Stoll brothers. Was it Connor? Or was it Travis? Even if they were not twins, they still looked similar.

"First," Annabeth explained. "he said 'Hera' which meant that he knows that he is Greek. If he thought he was Roman, he would have said Juno or corrected himself. Second, he remembered a phone number, and knew who's phone number it was."

"Oh," The same brother said. "So this is great news! When is the Argo ll going to be done?"

"Soon, child," Chiron said. "Everyone should get back to work."

"Good idea," Annabeth said. She turned to Sally. "I'll be over in a bit, okay?"

Sally smiled. Annabeth had been coming over a lot. They would both comfort each other and tell each other it was going to be okay. Sally cut through the message. A hope spread through her. She knew her son was going to be home soon.

(A/N) I continued! I think I might do another chapter, but I'm not sure. Oh, and I found it funny in my document of open office, it had suggestions when I typed in something. And when I typed in Percy, and suggestion was (I typed this in my MOA story once) Percy-Jackson-how-dare-you-join-a-group-of-angry-Romans! I thought it was funny. No? Okay.

Anyways. Should I do another chapter? I think I will. Today is a day where I had a burst of inspiration so I felt like updating all of my stories. (all three of them) and I haven't updated the Impossible Case Yet, I'm still working on that. But I did update my MOA which I haven't updated in over a month. Yikes! Anyways. Hope you liked it. It was kind of short, sorry about that. Thanks to everyone who reviewed, I'll get back to you on that soon! Eh, I'll do it now.
