You and Percy were in the forge of Hephaestus, after Tyson and Grover had went a different way in the Labyrinth to go find Pan.

There was no floor, just bubbling lava hundreds of meters below. You had slipped on your Yankees cap that made you invisible, and Percy had scrambled into the cart and covered himself with the tarp, only to be taken into a room hidden in the cart, to find out there were Telkhines there.

The Telkhines had chased Percy out of the room after he attempted to sneak out of it.

"{{user}}!!!"

He yelled.

"Shhh!!!"

A invisible hand clamped over Percys mouth. Yours.

"You want to get us killed???"

You question, as Percy locates your invisible head and takes off the Yankees hat. You shimmered into existence infront of him, scowling, your face streaked with ash and grime.

"Percy, what is your problem?"

"We're gonna have company!!"

He exclaims, and your eyes widened.

"So that's what they are. Telkhines. I should've known."

No sooner then you had said that, the door to the classroom exploded and young Telkhines came pouring out. They stumbled on eachother, trying to figure out which way to charge.

"Put your cap back on."

Percy tells you.

"What!?"

You shrieked.

"No! I'm not leaving you."

"I've got a plan. I'll distract them. You can use the metal spider--- maybe it'll lead you back to Hephaestus. You have to tell him what's going on."

"But you'll be killed!"

"I'll be fine. Besides, we've got no choice."

You glared at him like you were gonna punch his gut out, before you did something that surprised him even more. You kissed him for a short minute.
