I'm pretty sure we'll see some conflict between Jason and Percy; they're too alike both being natural leaders (apart from the fact that Jason has the personality of a cardboard box and Percy is Mr. Personality), I'm pretty sure their fights will be on a similar scale to Percy and Thalia, but probably more extreme. We can never be sure about the seventh until RR confirms it, a lot if stuff is hinting Annabeth but we know Rick is unpredictable and we may be introduced to a completely different character for the seventh. However I'd be interested to read from her perspective. Reasons why Jason and Piper are good characters (only looking on good points not bad points since we're all familiar with them) JASON - redeemed the fifth cohort, seemed to care about soldiers, he's a loyal person (I think Hera mentioned that as a fatal flaw?) and eventhough a brick is more entertaining he's a good selfless person at the end of the day. PIPER- she's different, I kind of like the fact she's a tomboy, she's got some entertaining lines with Leo e.g 'Repair boy', seems to really care for her father and saved Jason and Leo from Medea.

Piper has heroically whined about Jason?

I think it's because Percy's leave was more recent in TLH were as in SON it had been eight moths and the camp was gradually getting used to the idea of a missing praetor therefore Jason was not mentioned as many times.

I guess I do hope Annabeth is the seventh. She's been there from the start and it would seem weird if Percy went on it without her however all the seven are shown as amazingly powerful which Annabeth hasn't demonstrated that and she's not needed for tactics since they have Frank, perhaps she'll lead CHB into battle? But yes, I do hope she's the seventh.

Better leader? Now that is a good question but I'm going for Mr Jackson, since he was a child of one of the least liked Gods and became a praetor in a couple of days when in took Jason most of his life.
