Chapter 1: The New Prophecy

Camp Half-Blood

It was a warm summer day for the campers of Camp Half-Blood, and for everyone it was like every other day. For everyone at camp it was about training and wondering what the next big prophecy would be, but for me, Percy Jackson it was a nerve wracking day.

Today was the day Percy decided he needed to break things off with Annabeth. He had many reasons for the new change of heart. He doesn't know where it went but the old little spark that he and Annabeth shared just wasn't there anymore. Another thing is that he really doesn't know if what they had was love in the first place. Yes her did have strong feelings for the daughter of Athena, but were they ever anything other than a sort of sisterly love?

He sat by the lake ―the place he asked Annabeth to meet him at― reciting what he would say to the girl in his head. He heard a twig break and he sun around with riptide in his hand ready for an attack.

"Whoa, Percy it's just me you're not under attack," Annabeth said with her hands up to show she had no weapon.

"Sorry Annabeth, but you can never be to sure," he replied shrugging and putting riptide back in his pocket in pen form.

"So what is it that's so important that you had to break my training?" she asked.

"We need to breakup," he replied quickly.

"What why?" she asked.

"I just don't think what I felt for you was anything more than sisterly love," he said looking down avoiding Annabeth's eyes. "Please don't be mad at me. I don't mean it in a rude sort of way."

"It's okay Percy, I understand," she said getting up and turning away to leave.

"We can still be friends right?" he asked.

"Of course Percy, I'm not letting something like this ruin a six year friendship. Now come on seaweed brain we got some training to do. I'm pretty sure you promised Nico to help him train with a sword." she said pulling Percy up and dragging him towards the fighting arena.

-Nico-

Nico was sitting alone on the edge of the arena, spinning his sword on the floor. Percy's ditched me for Annabeth again, he thought to himself. He got up and turned away to go back to the Hades cabin.

"Hey where do you think you're going diAngelo?"

He heard a familiar voice say. He turned to meet the gorgeous ocean green eyes of Percy Jackson, and of course next to him was the one and only Annabeth Chase.

"Well I'll see you later Percy, you too Nico," Annabeth nodded to them and walked of to do other things.

"You still want to train, or is the Ghost King too tired for that?" Percy asked playfully.

Nico punched him back in the arm, "Shut up and get out your sword."

Percy pulled out his sword and immediately slashed it to the right. Nico deflected it, and tried to find an opening for an attack while holding Percy back. Nico finally saw an opening, and quickly grabbed Percy's wrist that was holding riptide with his free hand and swung the sword with his other hand in the opposite direction as he was pulling Percy's wrist. He heard the clatter of a sword and what he saw surprised him. There was Nico standing there with his sword point at Percy's neck and Percy glaring down at his sword. Both demigod were panting from the intense battle and when Nico dropped his sword to his side and handed Percy his, both boys collapsed to the ground to catch a breath.

In the distance they could hear clapping, Nico looked for the source not knowing who it was coming from until Percy nudged him in the arm and pointed at the girls coming forwards.

"Great job Nico you're really improving," Rachel said.

"Yeah Nico great job," Annabeth said smiling. "Oh, and you too Percy. You did a great job as well."

"Thanks," both Nico and Percy said at someone similar times.

Annabeth and Rachel sat down with the boys and just started talking. They were joking about old things like when Percy and Rachel met, but while they were all laughing Nico was throwing glances at Percy. I'm definitely not over him, he's still gorgeous, Nico thought through his glances at the son of Poseidon.

Then randomly during her sentence Rachel lurched forwards then stiffed straight with her serpent green glowing eyes, and spoke in the voice of the prophecy.

"Three male demigods must travel,

One of the sky

One of the sea

And one of the dead

To an unknown world with a female half-breed,

Who can sing, heal, shot a bow, and perform magic unknown by your world,

Accompanied by the satyr who saw Pan,

They must help the people of the unknown world defeat He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named,

The oracle herself must join as well,

For there are seer's to meet and prophecies that mustn't tell,

If said prophecies spill to the wrong side,

All worlds will be destroyed."

Rachel slouched back to where she was before and looked at the three demigods with question in her eyes.
