CHAPTER - I
Yep, it was celebration time. Gaea was defeated, the giants sent back to tartarus and the two camps were united. Whilst everyone around were full in smiles six not-so-happy serious faced demigods were inside the big house with a strange looking man who was in a wheel chair and alongside him a grey wolf.
"Seven half-bloods shall answer the call, to storm or fire the world must fall. An oath to keep with a final breath, and foes bear arms to the Doors of Death," said Annabeth.
"Let's go through it," Percy said a few moments after Annabeth recited the Prophecy of the Seven, "The seven of us." he continued while glancing at each of the other five demigod's faces.
"We all saw how Gaea was taken down. Storm or fire right?" Piper said, "Well guess it was fire in the end."
Everyone stared at the floor after Piper said that. They were all thinking about one thing, or more likely one person, Leo Valdez.
"He was a true hero," Hazel said breaking the lasting silence.
"And a pure idiot too," Piper said with a sigh.
"Demigods uniting with their immortal enemies, so to say the giants and the titans, at such a particular instance will define the last line of the prophecy," Chiron said.
"But," Frank interjects while looking up at Chiron, "What about the third? An oath to keep with a final breath."
"Percy? Annabeth? You guys made an Oath while in tartarus?" Jason asks. Both of them silently shake their heads showing that the answer is negative.
"What about Leo?" asks Hazel.
"Hazel here has a point. Since none of you have made such an oath, and the fact that Leo has already encountered his final breath, in other words death." Chiron explained his opinion to the young demigods.
"We'll have go on with that assumption." Annabeth said.
"If we take the prophecy word to word then Leo died fulfilling his promise." Annabeth pointed out.
"But the million-dollar-question is what in Hades was Leo's oath?" asked Percy. And that was pretty much what everyone else gathered at the big house was thinking.
