The following message took place during a dream:

Dear Jake Robson,

I know this is the first time I've talked to you, but I know, you more than you think I do. The problem is: my love potion has been stolen. It is the only one I have, since it never finishes, yet it is in a small heart-shaped container. It is the potion where my arrow tips stay wet, so the love-at-first-sight-magic can work when activated, otherwise, the tips alone can't work. I think some demigods must have snuck and stole it in my Venice lair yesterday (since it is one of the principal cities of love) while I was making my preparations before from one of the busiest day of the year: Kiss day (April 28). I need you to lead a group to go there, find it and give it back to me in my lair (you will know where the lair is, my kids always know) before Valentine's day. If you fail, nobody will fall in love at first sight, can you imagine that? No spontaneous love? However, if the enemy, doesn't discover how to use it. But if it does, there will be too much love between people not meant to be, and we don't want any of both to happen. I need your help.

- Eros, your Father

Eros needs Jake and his team to find and retrieve Eros' stolen love potion, who was probably stolen by some BC members.

Jake Robson - Son of Eros, owned by Xax

Scott Grey - Son of Apollo, owned by Maickol

Santiago Diaz - Son of Nyx, owned by Jay

Georgia Hales - Daughter of Prometheus, owned by Waves

Katsuya - Priest of Themis, owned by Hyu

Tina Grey ~ Daughter of Eros, owned by Royal

Roman airport, outside it (x1 Ker)

Milano's train station (x2 Lamiai)

Venetian gondola (x2 Sirens)

Venice outskirts (Arachne)

Demigods from the BC did not steal the potion. Arachne's minions did, that's how Eros didn't hear anyone enter the house, because spiders stole it, so Arachne could be loved again by someone, since, now that she is half-spider, nobody loved her. The problem is she doesn't know how to use it, and they defeat her and retrieve the potion, however, they don't kill her just because of pity.

Amorous vial heisted with no vestige,

From archer's abode, from La Serenissima's prestige.

Half-bloods must traverse the boot-shaped nation,

Prior to the clock ticking on the day of the lovers,

For too much nor little is total desecration.

Preparation

Jake:He wakes up and starts to pack his things up, after all this things...the dream, the waiting for being claimed as an official quest, the prophecy and the Oracle's eyes, he was a bit tired, but really excited as well as nervous: he was leading the quest, if someone died, he was the one to take the blame. He sits outside the cabin with all his things ready."Italy, country of love, here we go" he murmurs to himself. Scott: Scott wakes up remebering he jake asked him to go on the quest so he gets up packing a backpack with fresh clothes, alitte money he had been saving, and food like caned food and granola bars. He then takes ashower getting dress and walking out his cabin ready for the quest. Jake: Since he is overwhelmed, he can't stop moving, so he goes to Apollo's cabin ready to meet with Scott. "What's up man?" he says"Today we start the quest, we should find the others at the entrance". Tina: After making her announcement on the podium, she is ready to start packing. She grabs a large LeSportsac duffel from under her bed and shoves in some clothes, nectar, ambrosia, and some generic survival supplies. Since they are going to Venice, she packs a camera, hoping that there will be some opportunities to take pictures. Before she leaves, she grabs a can of beer and takes a swig before reluctantly tossing it into her garbage can, knowing that she unfortunately can't get liquid through security, let alone beer. She grabs a backpack full of supplies and makeup, pulls on her striped espadrilles, then sets off toward the camp entrance to meet everyone else. Scott: Scott being on the porch of his cabin tanning while waiting hears jakes comment. "Sure lets go." Scott say walking twords the camp entrance not even looking back to see if jake is following. When he gets to the entrance he puts down his bags and leans against one of the pillars. Jake: He follows Scott to the entrance, finding Tina already there. "Ready for Italy?" he asks both. Tina: Her blonde locks, dyed turquoise at the tips, flow behind her as she turns her head to respond to Jake. She shivers a bit, for there is a gust of chilly wind, and she is only wearing a baby blue cropped tee, dark flare jeans, and her espadrilles. She puts her hands on her hips and gives the two of them a confident smirk, taking her sweet time before responding. "Of course I'm ready. I'm ready for anything, Jake," she remarked, saying Jake in a way meant to make him feel inferior. Scott: Scott looks to to tina examing her then gently smiles at her enthusiasm."Ya im ready." Scott says lowly then notices Tina siver and he looks to her again. "You need a sweater?" Scott say willing to give her his sweater. Jake: He is used to people talking to him like that, so he doesn't get offended. He wears some dark jeans, a white muscle shirt and a black leather jacket, since he predicted it would be cold. He is bored waiting, so he jokes. "That's good, cause we will have so much fun getting our clothes dirty" He says being almost a 100% positive that Tina's definition of fun doesn't agree with his. Tina: She wrinkles her nose like she has just smelled something sour. "Ew, I don't want your sweater. And I am not getting my nice clothes dirty," she yelps. "But, sweetie, that's why I packed my cheap stuff. Like I said, ready for anything. Anyway, we won't have a problem, right," she questions, smiling like a shark. She opens up her duffel and yanks out a white cardigan, which she puts on quickly. She then crosses her arms and turns away from them, waiting for the other questers. Scott: Scott smiles at tina's outburst and leans against the pillar looking down at the camp watching the campers go about there day. He sighs then looks to the sky. Tina: She whips back around, dumbstruck by Scott's smile. "I think we will have a problem," she mutters. "Now, don't make me slap that smile right off of your face, because I will, and it will hurt, a lot," she rants, her face growing red with rage. Being naturally snide, she likes to complain about little things. Scott: Scott looks to tina not really caring of what she said. "We can have a problem if you want,... just keep it to yourself." Scott says pulling his hoddie over his head then turning away from tina looking back down at the camp. Jake: He giggles at the how Scott replied to Tina. He looks at Scott and whispers to him."Not a great start with this quest's teamwork huh?" Georgia: She had exited camp's border, having finished getting ready. She had a black duffel back at her side, containing the minimum she taught would be necessary. Packing lightly certainly didn't take long, let alone getting ready. She was merely a few minutes back. She wore a red and black stripped sweater, distressed denim jeans and Aldo combat boots, while her hair was let down as per usual. Seeing that her teammates had an apparently ticked off aura, she simply gave them a greeting smile to acknowledge her presence. Jake:He looks at Georgia, who looks kind of shy since she didn't say hi, so he tries to bring up the mood."Hi Georgia, are you ready? Do you have all your stuff?" he says. Santiago: He curses multiple times, scolding himself. He rushes to get himself packed, putting in a decent amount of clothes, some nectar and ambrosia he had gotten from an Apollo kid, an extra dagger and some toiletries. He runs to Thalia's tree, his black duffel back bouncing on his back, hoping that the group hasn't left yet. He's wearing a CHB shirt and some black jeans. Katsuya: As the lot are chattering away about the quest, a purple streak runs across the damp spring soil paths of camp and abruptly stops in front of them. It is Katsuya, wearing a purple hoodie with white outlines and navy blue cargo shorts. On his left shoulder hangs an ashen-gray string bag. He smiles at them and says, "G'day to you lot! Sorry for being late." Jake:He stands up looking at the now full team"'Kay folks, hi Katsuya, hi Santi, well, I guess we all know what this quest is about. First, we need to go to the NY airport to get first to Rome, and then, travel all the way to Venice to find the potion that was stolen. So lets get out of camp now. Any questions?" he says fully confident for the first time in years. Scott: Stands there looking at the group wonder if the could pull this quest off. This was his first quest and even though he isn't showing it he is really nervous and scared. "......." Scott stay quiet hearing jake ask if anyone had any questions but not replying   Jake: He stands in awkward silence not hearing anyone reply. "So no questions? Well.."he says making a clap in his hands."Let's get going. C'mon follow me."He grabs his things and gets out of the camp border.

Italian Air Service

Tina: Her wedges clack on the white tiled floor of the airport as she struts down a long, airy corridor. Her hair flows behind her like it is being blown by a fan. Her regal air and upturned nose scream I'm the queen. She seems to stand out among the bustling crowds of tourists milling about the airport. She turns her head to glance at the rest of the group. "So, where are we going," she asks nobody in particular. Scott: Scott looks to tina shruging at her question then looking to the leader of the quest jake waiting for him to say something. Jake: he looks at Scott looking at him in the eyes, as if waiting for an answer. "Well, as you may know, we're going to Italy, so first, we need to buy airplane tickets, probably from Alitalia" He says, walking toward a machine to buy the tickets. He enters the number of passengers, the flight, and pays them with a credit card. He waits for the tickets to print. He grabs them, and gives one to every quester. "I got the soonest one, we need to board the plane in 45 min."he orders. Katsuya: He takes one of the tickets and carefully places it inside his hoodie's left pocket. "Thanks for the ticket," he says gratefully. After hearing their plane's departure time, he asks, "Excuse me, but aren't we wasting precious time, even for 45 minutes?" Scott: Scott takes a ticket and puts it in the pocket of his hoddie and ooks around the airport watching the civilians walk by. He then sees a women with her young child and he loses himself in thoughts about his mother. Tina: She snatches a ticket from Jake's hand without giving him a thank you. "45 minutes isn't too long, considering I can charm my way through security," she brags, wanting everyone to know how incredible her abilities are. She flips her hair and begins to walk in a random direction, pretending that she knows where she is going. Scott: Scott watches as tina walks in the wrong direction wondering were she is going. He would have told asked her but he remebered Tina didn't take a liking to him the first time they met at the camp entrance. Jake:He chuckles. "I bet you can... The only thing is: you'll charm the security of China, Tina. The boarding is to the other way"he says laughing. Tina: She glares at Jake, looking like she wants to kill him. "Yeah, well, I was going that way because, um, I dropped a hairbrush," she stutters, yanking out her brush from her back pocket. She always carrys it to avoid bad hair days. She waves her brush in the questers faces, releasing the aroma of vanilla and coconut, then continues walking the right way. Georgia: She stood among them in silence, seeming rather pensive than shy. With her arms crossed, she observed the child of Eros with peculiarity, even rolling her eyes for once. Scott: Scott looks to tina walking then looks at georgia and smile. "Hey my names Scott." Scott says relizing no one but jake knows his name and he knows no one elses name either. Katsuya: He silently watches them after speaking his thoughts, taking a peek on his watch from time to time to check if their flight's up. Between his time checks, he looks at the world clock at his right, his eyes shifting from one place to another. Georgia: "I'm Georgia." She responded, having not introduced herself as well to her comrades, sparing Jake, afterwards returning to her silent dwelling. Santiago: He yawns, then grabs the ticket from Jake's hand. He's pretty sure no one had noticed him. Being a son of Nyx made it easy for him to be unnoticeable. Though, he wasn't always quiet, he was just really tired. "45 minutes huh? Why'd we come so early..?" Scott: Scott yawns while nodding his head in agreement to santiago's statement but stay quiet pulling his hood over his head and getting lost in thoughts. Tina: She has now walked a reasonably large distance away from the group. She turns around, noticing that no one has followed, and puffs out her cheeks. She stomps back to the group, angry that they didn't do what she did. "Um, we may have time now, but if we don't hurry to security we'll miss our flight," she points out, rolling her eyes. Santiago: "Calm down, sweetheart. Not all of us are as anxious and uptight as you." he groans. He checks his watch "40 minutes, I think we have a lil time to spare." Jake: He looks toward Tina, who is now a bit far."Even though we do have time to spare, I think I need to agree with Tina, we need to pass through security and let all of our things get checked."He says hating to agree with Tina."C'mon"

A Plane, and a New Place

• Jake: He enters the plane, a bit scared from it. "Sooooo... we go to our respective places right? So... I got the 17B, anyone knows where that is? Anyone?"he says a bit insecure.
• Georgia: Since she got seat 16B, and was well aware of his reluctant reaction, she let out a sigh and lightly nudged him by the elbow, hoping he would get the message and follow her as she started making her way towards a window seat.
• Jake: He gets her message and follows her toward the seat he thinks is his. "Thank you" he whispers.
• Santiago: He yawns and checks his ticket. "19C..." He sits down and yawns again. He closes his eyes and goes in a deep thought."
• Tina: She waves her ticket in the air excitedly, staggering a bit as she walks through the narrow aisle on her espadrilles. "I got 16C," she screams, and plops herself down right next to Georgia. She turns to her, pondering whether or not she should say something. Deciding to break the silence, she asks, "You don't snore, right? 'Cause I wanna sleep on this flight."
• Scott: Scott looks to his ticket and sees he has 19b so he goes to sit by santiago but doesnt speak only looking out the small circular window going deep ito thoughts.
