A rose to save the world.
Hey guys, this is my second fanfiction. I'll try and update every two days. So anyway I'd appreciate any reviews on what you think of the chapter. Whether you like it or not id appreciate the feedback, anyway enjoy the chapter.
Third person POV
People around camp were on edge. The gods had been silent for a month now and the campers were beginning to think the Gods had vanished into thin air.
The last time the Olympians had gone quiet was at the beginning of the giant war against Gaea and her children the Giants last summer and well with the prospect of another war hanging over everyone's heads it was it was hard for anyone to act upbeat.
Even Mr D had retreated up to the heavens which he could only do with Zeus' consent. It was proof something was very wrong as it would take something pretty terrible for the king of the Gods to go back on his on his word. It made people very very worried.
Percy's POV
Percy could feel the awkwardness at the campfire. The Hermes cabin was attempting to lead the sing along but people's spirits were too low. The camp fire was a dark purple flame that showed the mood perfectly and cast eerie shadows on people's faces.
As if the atmosphere could get any darker the air started to fill with a thick green smoke. Every ones heads immediately turned to where Rachel, the oracle, was sat with the Athena cabin. Her eyes and mouth were emitting the green fog and she spoke with the raspy voices of the three fates.
"A rose dropped into the sea, Changing things from what there meant to be, Two half bloods found by the sand, Has the key to re-open the now hidden land, Mother earth rises even after the fight, and battles against love and suns light, but even earth full fury ad might , cannot overturn a love held tight."
When she had finished the fog faded and Rachel fell backwards of the wooden bench to be caught just in time by Jason and Piper. Everyone else sat in silence.
"Gaea's coming back" muttered someone.
"Opening the now hidden land?" asked another to no one in particular.
Rose's POV
Rose woke in her bed after yet another nightmare. Her duvet had been knocked on the floor and it was cold i n her room yet she was sweating.
She's been having these nightmares for about to two weeks now and they were always the same. She saw herself running downhill towards a strawberry farm along with a boy with curly brown hair who she had never seen before. They were obviously running from something but Rose didn't know what and to be honest she didn't really want to know either. Next she saw herself drowning, sinking slowly into the dark blue sea and the small trail of bubbles slowly disappearing as she struggled to breathe in the salty waters. And finally she saw a woman's face smiling. Her eyes were closed as if she was sleeping and her hair was greasy as though it had not been washed in years so it was hard to tell what colour it was. There was something about this woman that unnerved Rose. Something about her that seemed evil.
Rose climbed about of bed. Jumped in the shower before getting dressed in a white shirt, black skirt and a orange and black striped tie. Her Apple tree academy uniform. She went over to her dresser and picked up a pinkish coloured stone. Her lucky pearl, and slipped it in her shirt pocket. Rose had a feeling that today she was going to need all the luck she could get.
She shouted a quick goodbye to her dad, who worked from home, and left the house.
Once Rose got to school she walked through the corridors, trying to ignore the snickers and sly comments from people stood in the corridor, Susan and Jane, and walked into her first class. Rose walked down the class to get to her seat in the back corner of the room narrowly avoiding tripping over class bully Sissy's outstretched leg in the middle of the isle. Sissy was the class bully and she did her best to make Rose's life miserable. And because no one else wanted to feel Sissy's wrath that meant she had no friends and was constantly met by sniggers and nasty comments whenever she walked anywhere in school.
Something was wrong though. Sissy's normally hazel eyes had a reddish tint to them and her teeth seemed sharper almost like fangs. Rose also noticed similar changes in Sissy's two cronies, Susan and Jane. She shook her head. You're just seeing things that's all she thought, you haven't slept properly in weeks you're just hallucinating or something. Rose did her best to convince herself it was nothing.
Yet in her heart Rose knew something bad was going to happen, she could just feel it.
