Chapter Five

Percy's POV

Before the Tidal Wave

I was still in this dream, no one here, except the voice that could read my mind.

"Who are you?" I asked loudly. The owl I saw earlier that was stalking me was still there in its pine tree. The owl had no eye pupils, just white and glowing.

"I koukouvagia symvolizei mou, to paidi. Athina." The owl answered in Greek. She was Athena, duh, because of the owl.

"I speak both languages, Percy." I didn't know that Athena had an owl form. Annabeth didn't tell me that.

"Since i'm the god of war- wait, one sec", She stopped, "I KNOW ARES SHUT UP! Okay, so i'm the other god of war, and since I can control guns, Clarisse was pranking you to shoot a BB gun at you but I switched it to a rifle. That's why the soldiers are missing their shot because the real bullets of the BB gun are celestial bronze. The Mist blocked the soldiers sight and the bullets were Nerf.

"So, you got me killed for a talk? I'm on a mission to save a friend. I need to get back... Um, get back to life."

"Oh i'm playing tag with Artemis. Bye!" I turned around. Artemis wasn't there. I was so angry. I had to get into life. I can't stay here forever. I summoned the water of the Atlantic Ocean to hit Athena. I couldn't summon just the waves. I was summoning the rocks too.

Piper's POV

Hi, Piper here. Annabeth sent me an Iris-Message for a quest to save some guy. They said they needed my charmspeak. The cabin's leaders were now allowed to go out of camp anytime they want.

I packed Nectar and Ambrosia for emergencies and an apple because they said it would last like 5 hours. I put them in my backpack and called Argus into his van.

When we got there, there were trees on the ground, soil everywhere, and water was 2 feet deep. Everyone was floating on the water. Not until Percy came out of the sky with scrapes and bruises, shirt ripped off halfway, with Riptide in hand.

"Hi", Percy said.
