Caught In The Chaos 2

.

.

.

As I slept, I remembered my last ecounter at earth...

59 years ago...

It was my 59th year in the Chaos army. Merci and Alder were out to complete a mission of assasinating a weapons dealer who sold weaponry to the 'evil people' from a planet...uh, I forgot what it was called. Nevonia? I think? Psh. I was still a seaweed brain.

Seaweed brain.

It had been a long time since I heard that from someone else's mouth.

And it hurt to think about it.

So there I was, sitting in my room, thinking about the mission and my sister, and camp. I missed them all. No matter what they did to me, it still couldn't replace the friendship I shared with them.

And the next thing I knew, a pitch black portal materialized next to me, and out came a letter.

The portal spoke in an ominous voice, "Letter sent From Lord Chaos. For Percy Jackson, Commander of Chaos Army. Origin, From Camp Half Blood, Grover Underwood."

What?!

I took the letter and slashed my hand to the portal messenger, it disappeared in a poof, and I looked at the letter in my hands. There was a note attached to it.

Dear Percy,

Your old friend Grover decided to pray to me and send this to you, and I could not help but send it. I wish for you to know that you can go to earth any time, and I have a feeling you will after reading this letter.

-Chaos

Still dumbstruck, a placed the note on the table and stared at the envelope. It looked really regal, with golden linings and a dove with a flower in it's mouth as the seal.

I turned to the back to see my name in cursive writing,

'Percy jackson, Son Of Poseidon, Best Friend'

I could've gone back to earth right then and there.

But I opened the letter rather slowly, and took out the folded paper that meant a lot.

Greetings! We are here to cordially invite you to the wedding of:

Grover Underwood And Juniper

Attire: White Or Gold Or Green Formal Wear

Planned By: Aphrodite 3

At: Camp Half Blood

Time: 6:00

On: June 5

To: Percy Jackson

I just stared and felt my mouth hang open.

He still wanted me to go to his wedding?

I stared sadly at the letter, and remembered all the times before Camp Half Blood.

When Grover was my best friend.

At the bottom, there was a messy handwriting which I recognized as Grovers and squinted to read it.

Hey Perce. You might not recieve this, but if you do, please come. I was going to make you the best man, but seeing as you left...I just want to let you know I'm sorry I was too busy. It's just that...all the Lord Of The Wild stuff had been keeping me busy, I failed to notice you were having problems and I failed my job not as a protector, but as a friend.

I reserved a seat for you in the very front row, in between Annabeth and Thalia, and Nico's going to be the best man if you don't come.

Please be there.

We all miss you.

Camp's been empty ever since you left and the new campers are the only ones keeping us from being down in the dumps all the time. Hell, a few days after you left CLarisse was moping around saying it wasn't fun to beat up anyone anymore. Because nobody would stand up for them like you did, nobody would fight for others like you did, and nobody would ditch school to help her fight her evil brothers.

We even tell stories about your adventures to other campers! They were all like 'he's awesome' 'WTF Annabeth' 'I wanna be like him'

So yeah. I really do hope you come Perce.

-Grover

P.S Thad is on cleaning duty forever BTW.

I almost laughed.

I realized I had missed my friends. I missed hanging out with Grover, pranking tree nymphs. I missed fighting with Clarisse. I missed annoying Nico. I missed drenching Thalia in water. I missed the Stoll's pranks...hell, I even missed Annabeth.

I stood up.

Today was June 5, and I could still get to Grover's wedding since it was still three.

I marched up the stairs to my room, ignoring the confused stares of the army at my 'determination face' and went to my room.

Since chaos already approved, he wouldn't bother if I had gone.

But where would I get a suit?

I turned around to see my room was clean.

My room isn't clean.

Someone had been here.

I looked around, feeling riptide in my pocket, and slowly made my way across the room to the bathroom. Slowly opening the door, I jumped in and gasped.

Chaos must've left me a present.

There was a white tuxedo with a golden tie.

I grinned. Now I only had one problem.

"Where can I get a wedding gift?"

I paced around the bathroom and glanced at the clock,

3:49

I sighed and my eyes wandered to the bottom of the clock.

It was the moonlace.

My shifted from the suit and moonlace and I sighed, "I guess I'm going to a wedding now."

Two and a Half hours later...

I hid in the thicket of trees and watched in amazement.

The dining pavilion had been decorated with multicoloured lights, and white tablecloths decorated the tables. A red carpet made it's way between the tables and to the front. A piano was there too, and Hera's staff was at the end of the carpet, and I guess she was the 'priest' for the wedding. You know God of marriage and all. Six large pillars, decorated with what seemed like vines, was placed around the arrangement, making it really look like a wedding.

Everyone started to file in, and Annabeth and Thalia sat at the front table. I couldn't help but stare at Annabeth at she smiled at everything, but there was a hint of sadness in her eyes as she started talking to Thalia.

I used my super hearing to eavesdrop.

"What's wrong Annie?" Thalia said, giving a half smile, and I snickered because white didn't suit Thalia very much. Annabeth was wearing a sea green dress and her hairs was up in a bun.

"Nothing. It's just that...one day, I wished Percy and I could've experienced this." She gestured around her. "And now we're not and it's all my fault..." She said, close to tears. And I wanted to just go there and wipe them away.

Thalia shook her head and said, "it isn't your fault. It was Thad's!"

Annabeth sighed. "Yeah. I guess so." But her face showed otherwise.

THalia smiled at her, "Great. Now wipe yo' tears, you'll ruin your mascara!" She winked. And ANnabeth managed a smile.

I sighed, trying to get them off my mind and watched the others as they came in.

I made sure everyone was seated first. I couldn't imagine if someone saw me.

Soon, everyone had filed in.

AFter a few minutes of checking to see if someone else was going to sit down I sighed and just watched from the trees. I was going to wait til' the wedding started and everyone was distracted before I went behind a pillar.

The piano started playing, an Apollo kid probably, and Everyone directed their attention to the bride and groom.

Juniper was beautiful. I didn't know how she got so far away from her tree. Maybe Hera's magic.

Hera was smiling for once, and I never thought I'd see the frigging' day again.

As the ceremony proceeded, I used my 'chaos-assassin-skills' to make my way behind a nearby pillar, nearby Annabeth and Thalia and the gang. Which was Nico, Rachel, Frank, Leo, Hazel, Piper and Jason. All in all, the seven of the prophecy and Nico and Rachel.

Excluding space between Thalia and Annabeth bothered me. I was supposed to be there.

Everyone in the table looked at the seat between the two best friends and sighed once they realized it was empty.

Annabeth rested her hand on my place and looked around, and I almost wanted to sit there and grin like an idiot, but I hid behind the pillar as her eyes scanned over me. She sighed and I peeked out again as her attention was back to the wedding. Grover glanced at my seat too, and then to Annabeth, and she shook her head.

Seeing Grover's frown, I used my empathy link and said, "Don't let me ruin your wedding G-man. Please."

I looked intently at Grover and his eyes widened, and he nodded at no one in particular and his eyes softened and turned back to Juniper.

I sighed. The bride and groom kissed and I took the oppurtunity to run to the center of the red carpet, and placed the gift there.

I turned around as I was about to leave, and stole a glance.

Everyone clapped and wooted, and I looked at the scene in longing and I clapped too, leaning casually against the pillar, making sure not to put extra weight because it might fall.

The couple broke apart and laughed, and Grover's eyes scanned the crowd and landed on me. I locked eyes with him, and gave a half smile as I retreated from my leaning position.

His mouth went agape and he said, "Percy?"

Everyone turned to me, but I smiled and said, "Happy Wedding G-man." I used their shock as a distraction and ran with my full speed which was very fast and opening a portal, I ran into it, leaving the wedding, my friends...

and the gift.

All I heard was ANnabeth voice as I teleported back to base.

"Seaweed Brain!"

ANNABETH POV

I sighed in longing at the seat beside me.

Percy was supposed to be here.

He was supposed to sit there in all his Percy-ness, laughing like an idiot and holding my hand.

but he wasn't.

I looked around the room, hoping he was there. I saw a small movement at a pillar near us but I shrugged it off.

he wasn't coming.

Grover glanced at the seat next to me, but I shook my head. Not knowing what else to say. He looked disappointed, but then his eyes widened, and he nodded absentmindedly. I almost wanted to ask him, but I didn't want to interrogate him on his wedding day.

I sighed and leaned back in my seat, my mind elsewhere.

My mind wandered to Percy. And tears threatened my eyes again. They've been doing that a lot.

I suddenly heard claps and woo's and soon, the bride and groom were kissing, and happiness surged in me and I clapped for them.

They broke apart and Grover grinned like a madman.

But his grin was wiped clean off his face as he turned to the isle.

"Percy?"

I stiffened and my neck almost hurt from turning around so fast.

And it was worth it.

Percy smiled. He was even more handsome than I remember. Same black hair and sea green eyes, yet they looked sad now. He looked like he excercised a lot, and he wore a white suit and golden tie.

"Happy Wedding G-man."

he turned around and ran, and he opened up a portal.

"Percy!" I shouted, my voice sounded so full of emotion.

But he was already gone.

A small gift wrapped in silver wrapping paper lay where Percy used to stand.

Grover picked it up as everyone waited in silence.

"It's from Percy."
