Leo Valdez and the Quest for Buford

Added by SK-IIIAfter being polished with Windex by Leo, Buford runs away carrying two syncopators in his drawers because he hates being polished with Windex and prefers Lemon Pledge with extra moisturizing formula. Leo gathers Piper McLean and Jason Grace to help him search for Buford before the Argo II and a square mile of Camp Half-Blood's forest blow up. At a bank of a stream, Jason recognizes some trails that are confirmed to be Buford's.
At a clearing about the size of a mall's parking lot, or where the Battle of the Labyrinth took place, the three demigods come across Buford waddling towards the far end of the clearing with steam puffing from his vents and disappearing into the trees.
Leo, Piper, and Jason encounter the Maenads, the followers of Dionysus, interrupting their search for Buford. Eventually, the trio makes a plan to retrieve him. Leo and Piper lead the Maenads back to Bunker 9, where Leo defeats them with a magical net. Meanwhile, Jason finds Buford and flies him back to Bunker 9.
After a heartfelt reunion between Leo and Buford, Leo takes the two syncopators from Buford. Leo places one of them inside the Argo II, saving the ship, and the other one in a drawer with no legs.
The Mark of Athena
Buford is on board the Argo II. Leo used him to distract the Roman's eagles by carrying a bag of dirty laundry through the air to carry the demigod's scents. Although he wasn't seen Buford was mentioned two times; once when Leo says that his plan failed and when he sees a flying sphere and states the Buford would have fallen in love.
Appearance
Buford is a magic walking table about three feet high with a round,[1] mahogany top, bronze base, three movable legs,[2] and little steam vents sticking up on one side.[3]
Trivia
- Despite being an object, Leo calls Buford by the pronoun of "he."[4]
