"I-I- uh- sure..?" Henry was a bit shaky, because while he realized what had actually happened, his mind was still telling him there had just been an accident, and that scared him. He stepped into the store, a bit shaky still.
"Wait, you're a mortal, you didn't see what happened." Leo suddenly realized and filled back to look at Henry with wide eyes. "I wonder if there is a way to allow you to see through the mist." He muttered, more to himself than Henry.
Henry shrugged. He wrapped his arms around himself a little. He wasn't sure if he could handle seeing the truth.
(Maybe leo should take him to camp?)
(that seems like a good idea to me!)
"Hey! Chiron could probably help! After all, you are one of the only people to not scream and run away after knowing that the books are based on real life!" Leo said excitedly.
Henry looked at Leo with wide eyes.
"I-I- I'm- are you sure?!"
"Yeah! I can have Chiron send a pegasus to make travel easy for us, less chance of a monster attacking us again."
Henry blinked several times, rubbing his eyes a little.
"Fucking…. Pegasus. O-of course…"
"Great! Let me just Iris message him." He said, bringing out a drachma from his belt and looking around for a pool of water.
"I… Over there," Henry said. He pointed over to a display fountain in the store, and the water in it.
(Forgot how Iris messages work so let's just..)
A few minutes later, arrangements were made, Leo and Henry were in the parking lot waiting for the pegasus, whose name was Cubic, to come.
Henry fidgeted a bit, completely terrified at this point. Still, he didn't run.
The pegasus came, whinying in all its glory, and came to a stop in front of Leo. "Hey there!" Leo said in a soft voice and rubbed his muzzle. "Hop on Henry, its safer in front than behind." He gestured to it.
Henry trembled a bit, but followed Leo's directions.
"What… Now?" He asked from on top of the pegasus.
"Now?" Leo grinned and tightened his legs, a sign that let the pegasus know it was time to go. Leo held onto the reins, which he brought over Henry to give him a faux seatbelt as well as a faux sense of safety.
Henry couldn't help but let out a loud help, staying close to Leo as they flew.
"Oh shit oh shit oh shit-"
Leo laughed at his expression and urged the flying horse to go faster. "For some reason, Chiron is eager to meet you." He mentioned.
Henry shrank a bit as the pegasus went faster, huddling up against Leo. He nodded a little, too terrified to speak.
