Calypso

Percy sat on the fire escape looking over at the plants he had just watered, the flowers where not showing yet but the little buds could be seen pushing their heads up to the sunlight. The Moonlace Calypso had given him being the only exception, for despite the fact  it now it was cowering from the sun beams, once the moon was up it would open it's glowing blue petals. One little piece of nature in a city filled with concrete and co2.

"Hello." The voice startled Percy so much he almost fell over the black railings, however he was caught by a long slender arm. Looking up one of the most beautiful people he had ever seen was standing over him, her eyes glistening, caramel hair flowing behind her in the wind. She was now wearing a black skirt with tights, and a white shirt, like she had just come from an important meeting. It was obvious she was uncomfortable in the formal clothes.

"Calypso?" He questioned as she pulled him to his feet, she smiled at the mention of her name.

"You remembered me? You kept your promise?" Percy blushed a little as she looked over to what now felt like his rather pathetic attempt to create a Garden. Especially when he remembered how beautiful Calypso's own Garden had been.

"Well yeah but...it's not very good..."

"Don't be silly it's perfect! My Garden took centuries to get just right, and I didn't have a lot else to do. But thanks to you Perseus Jackson I am free, to go where I like and be with who I want. For that I am eternally grateful."

"Hay you brought me back from the brink of Hades, I think we can just call it even. Anyway how did you get here?"

"Your mother let me in, she's very nice." Calypso shrugged.

"No I mean...New York, how did you get here?"

"Oh after I was released I had to swear an oath of allegiance over Zeus' head, so I was in the area." Percy nodded, of course it wasn't easy to forget the empire state building was also the lobby of Mount Olympus. Then again Percy was VERY forgetful.  "Listen I'd better be off, I was just checking that you're the honest, promise keeping man I thought you were." This made his face redden.

"Where will you go now you're not restrained to your Island." Calypso thought for a moment, placing her hand on her chin.

"I think I'm going to travel a bit, see the new world and then...well maybe there'll be a place for me at camp when old Dionysus has left. That way I'll never be alone again, as there will always be heroes. Well I'll see you around!" She gave Percy a quick peck on the cheek, then swift as a bird she climbed down the fire escape and then skipped away into the unknown...
