Percy: I can't believe I died.

Thalia: It's just a story, Percy. Get over it.

Me: *Rolls her eyes*

Percy: . . . I died.

Me: Thalia can you?

Thalia: *Whacks Percy*

Percy: Ow!

ME: I do not own Percy Jackson and the Olympians.


Thalia

I'm in a dark room. There's a girl sitting on a chair in the middle of the room. It was so dark I couldn't see her face but she looked my age (20). What am I doing here? Where am I? Who is she?

"Thalia Grace, this is your dream. I used the last bit of my powers to come here so listen carefully. I don't have much time left," She said in a raspy voice, like she hasn't had a drink in days. I grew suspicious of her. Who was she and what does she want? She chuckled as if reading my mind then coughed violently.

"Thalia, you are in danger. Do not leave camp. No matter what you must stay in camp. Do you understand?" I narrowed my eyes at her.

"What the Hades are you talking about? What do you mean I'm in danger? Who the Hades are you?" I could see her face clearly now. I gasped as she smiled sadly.

"H-how? That's not possible!" Her body trembled as she coughed up blood.

"Not enough time! You must find him, quickly. He'll protect you. You must trust him. Do not leave camp!

"Do you understand, Thalia? Thalia," The room faded away into darkness.

"-alia? Thalia!" I reached out blindly.

"Ack!"

I was choking Annabeth. I immediately let go of her.

"Sorry! Are you ok?" I asked. My breath came out in short gasps as I tried not to think about the weird dream I had. Annabeth gagged while glaring at me. She studied me for a second before saying,

"You look terrible. Bad dream?" I nodded but didn't say anything.

"What did you want?" Annabeth paled and bit her lip.

"Nico's gone." I shot out of bed and yelled,

"WHAT? When?"

"Last night. I went to his cabin and saw a mess. There was dried blood on the ground. I told Chiron and he told me to get you." I swore as I went to the bathroom to change.

A couple minutes later . . .

We went to the Big House to see all of the counselors there already. The Stolls were arguing with Katie Gardner. A kid whose name I forgot was asleep and Clarisse was polishing her spear. When she saw us come in she immediately started yelling at us.

"What took you so long? We waited for 30 minutes, punk!" Everyone got quiet as she went on with her rant.

"Everyone be quiet! Please sit down Thalia, Annabeth." Chiron sighed. When everyone settled down he said,

"Nico has gone missing." Campers started shouting again. I slammed my hands on the table.

"Shut Up!" I glared at everyone daring them to say something.

"Thank you Thalia. As I was saying Nico is missing. Annabeth went to his cabin but Nico was not there. His cabin is a disaster and there is dried blood on the floor. He may have been kidnapped," Chiron finished. Everyone stared at each other then back at Chiron.

Malcolm cleared his throat.

"Do you think this has something to do with the quest he went on 4 years ago?" I clenched my fists. Next to me, Annabeth's back went stiff. Everyone in the room froze. Even Chiron froze up.

Malcolm went red and put up his hands as if surrendering.

"I mean, there really isn't any reason why someone would kidnap Nico, so, uh, I-I just thought," He stammered as he tried to explain.

"I think he's right," Annabeth muttered but everyone heard her. All eyes were on her.

"Well, it makes sense. Why else would anyone kidnap Nico? Besides the fact that he's a child of the Big Three. Something big happened on that quest. Something so big that he went mute. We have to find out exactly what happened." We all nodded. Everyone but the Stolls.

"What if he stole something from the gods and," Travis started.

"He is being punished for it right now," Connor ended while grinning.

"Or maybe he ran away and," Travis started again.

"One of the campers tried to stop him, hurt him in the process but failed to stop him," Connor smirked.

We all sweat dropped. That was lame.

Annabeth shook her head at their stupidity.

"Anyways, we have to find out what kind of quest they went on. Rachel, do you know the prophecy they got by any chance?" Annabeth asked hopefully but Rachel shook her head sadly.

"Then the only way of finding out is by asking the gods. They're the one who sent them on the quest."


Chiron left to go to Olympus and everyone went back to their regular activities. I went to the beach to try to relax but I couldn't with Nico gone and such. I have to find out what happened. I have to know what happened . . . to Percy. Why was everything so complicated?

Out of the corner of my eye I saw someone. I turned towards that person and saw that he had black hair and . . . sea green eyes? His eyes widened as did I. I opened my mouth to say something but he ran into the forest.

"Hey! Wait!" I ran after him hoping he wouldn't disappear like the other times I thought I saw him. He was fast. Faster than I thought. Since when did he get so fast? I panted trying to catch up with him. What happened next made me stop. A huge swirling portal looking thing appeared in front of him. The sky turned dark and suddenly it was very windy. The wind was so strong I had to put up my hands to cover my face. I had to squint to see in front of me. I screamed his name as he jumped in the portal.

"Percy!"

The portal closed up and the sky turned back to normal. The wind died down and he was nowhere in sight. Where the portal was a boy was lying down. He groaned as he got up. Stretching while doing so. When he finally noticed me he fell back down in surprise. He opened his mouth then closed it. He did this several times. He got up again and pointed a finger at me.

"You! Did-did you see that? Please tell me you didn't see it." He muttered the last part but I heard him anyway. I scowled at him.

"Yeah, I saw it! What are you going to do about it? Tell me what the Hades that was and where Percy went to!" I demanded. I got my bow out and pointed at him. Surprisingly he didn't seem to be scared that I had a bow pointed at him. Instead, he narrowed his eyes at me suspiciously.

"Are you . . . are you Thalia Grace by any chance?" I gripped my bow tighter.

"Are you the guy who's supposed to protect me? That means the dream was real! What the Hades is going on?" I said the last part to myself. That was when I actually looked at him carefully. The bow fell out of my hands as I took a step back. He had blonde hair and blue eyes.

It was Luke.


Third Point of View

"Sir, subject 5 has escaped. I repeat, subject 5 has escaped." The voice crackled through the transmitter. The man holding the transmitter swore. He answered back,

"Find him! Before one of them finds him!"

"Yes, sir! But one last thing, sir. Um, we found subject 1. What shall we do with him?"

A smile formed on the man's face. He lit a cigarette as he chuckled. His anger from losing subject 5 faded away.

"Subject 1, you say? Bring him to me. Right now," He didn't wait for an answer. He put the transmitter away and laughed. This was the best news he heard all day. Subject 1 had escaped ten years ago but they had recaptured him four years ago only to lose him again two years ago. Now they had him again but this time he won't let him get away. Not again, he won't.

The door to his office creaked open. Six guards hauled in an uncooperative prisoner. For most people they only need two guards to hold them down but this one had six holding him down. The prisoner let out a string of swear words. He had a very colorful vocabulary. The man found this amusing. Very amusing, indeed.

The man walked to the prisoner who glared at him. He did not flinch at the stare the prisoner was giving him no matter how scary it looked. The look the prisoner was giving him was a look of pure loathing. The man smirked as he kneeled down. He caressed the prisoner's cheek but withdrew his hand as the prisoner almost bit his hand.

"Don't. Touch. Me," The prisoner said maliciously through gritted teeth. The man threw back his head and laughed. He had forgotten how fun it was to play with him. Subject 1 was too much fun.

Another guard came running in, panting. When he caught his breath he said,

"We have subject 8! Subject 8 is here! We have found him!" The man laughed once more as he saw the look of pure horror on the prisoner's face. He trembled with fury as he yelled,

"No! No, no, no! This isn't supposed to happen! He was supposed to be safe at camp! If any of you hurt him, I'll KILL you all!"

Subject 1 struggled through the ropes that tied him up. He screamed once more in anger. The man only laughed as the guards stared at him uneasy. Subject 1 scared the crap out of them yet he laughs. He laughs as if he did not have a care in the world.

The boss really is a dangerous man.


I'll give a cookie to those who knows who Subject 1 & 8 is! So, Nico's gone, Luke's here, Percy disappeared once again and Thalia's confused as hell. I'll try to update at every chance I have and I'm mostly free on weekends so I'll update a lot on weekends. Well, I'll try to. No promises.
