Hope I didn't take too long. I'm also writing a different story. Keep reading.
Chapter 2- We go to a strange place.
I head back to the hotel. They were done watching TV now.
"Hey Phoebe, we are going to go to the Empire state building. Come with us." Nicole pleaded. "Besides if you don't come I'm going to be stuck with them." She makes a hand jester that means she doesn't want to be with them alone.
"Ok I'll come. Nothing else to do." I say. "I'm going to bed now. Bye boys."
Troy walks out. Griffin gives me a kiss on the cheek and walks out.
The next day me and Nicole are waiting outside the building waiting for the boys.
"Where are they? We said ten o'clock and it is already ten thirty." I'm over reacting.
"Chilax Phoebe. Boys are always late." Nicole seems calm.
The boys come walking up.
"I know we are late. We over slept." Griffin said and kissed me on the lips.
"Save it for alone time, lovebirds. Let's go." We go after Nicole. Griffin and I are holding hands. Troy jogs to get up to Nicole.
At Camp Half-blood
Percy's POV
I get a message that Chiron needs me at the big house. I leave my swords class, which I was teaching. I'm eighteen now. They needed someone to teach it. I volunteered to teach it. I got it, but I have to teach with head counselor for Ares cabin. I left Clarisse to teach the rest of the class and ran to the big house.
As soon as I walk in I see my beautiful girlfriend Annabeth, and my best friend Grover. They always get news before me.
"About time Seaweed Brain. We started to think you didn't get the message." Annabeth says in her cocky voice. I sit down right next to Annabeth.
"What are we doing here?" I ask.
"You are here because the gods have called for you demigods." Chiron told us. Whenever the gods need us, it is always a bad thing.
I hear a door open from behind us. I turn around and see a good friend.
"Hey Rachel, What brings you here?" I ask. She is taking deep slow breath like she ran along time none stop.
"I ….bring….you." She stops mid sentence. She gives a look that we all know well the oracle is coming. I stand up and run as soon as I get there she falls into my arms. I drag her to a chair. Green smoke comes from her mouth.
Four friends from afar
From another side.
Will meet their ancestors,
And three new friends
Rachel comes back around. Acting like nothing happens. Annabeth looks confused. Grover stops mend bite in his can.
"What is it you guys. You look shocked." Rachel says confused.
"Is this prophecy for us or someone else? This one sounds like it was meant for someone else. What do you think Chiron?" Annabeth asks. Chiron looks like he is thinking of a reasonable choice of words.
"I don't know Annabeth. I just don't know." He was in wheelchair from because the ceiling is too low for him. You would think they would have a higher ceiling, but they don't. He rolls away.
"Well I guess all we can do is go to Mt. Olympus." I say.
Annabeth and I head for our cabins to grab last minute things. I grab my wrist watch shield. Tyson went back and fixed it for my eighteenth birthday party. I didn't know if I needed anything else, so I left.
Annabeth grabbed her knife, that Luke gave her, and her Yankees invisible cap. We walked up to half-blood hill to meet Grover. We knew Grover was going to take awhile with Juniper.
"What do you think the gods want us for?" I ask Annabeth. She seemed to know more about these types of things.
"I think it might have something with a new demigod, but they would have told Chiron. That is my best guess. They might have a quest for us that has to do with Rachel's Prophecy. Tell you the truth the gods are unpredictable." Annabeth doesn't know, in other words.
"What do you think about the prophecy?" I ask.
"I think we are going to run into four people who are powerful, but you can't guess on prophecies. They are unpredictable also." She has no idea. I was about to say something when Grover runs up breathing hard.
"Did you run from the forest or just up the hill?" I asked.
"From….the forest…sorry….I'm late." He starts to breathe more normally.
"Well we have a long ride into the city. Argus is taking us to the subway station and from there we are on our own." Annabeth quotes. We have heard that enough times to say it in our sleep.
We climb in to the van. First Grover, than Annabeth, last but not least me. I pull the door close, and we leave. The way there is quiet.
We pull up to the subway station. We all get out. We thank Argus and we head down into the tunnel. I turn to look at Grover. He is shaking. I can feel how afraid he is because of our empathy link. He hates underground. We buy our ticket to the Empire State building. Lucky for us there is one right across the street. We get on and walk to the back of the bus.
We sit across the aisle from four teens. They are holding a brochure of something. I can't read it. Two of them, a boy and a girl, were holding hands. The boy oddly looked like Ares, just less buff. I'm guessing they are dating. There are another girl and boy. They were joking around.
Annabeth starts talking to me in ancient Greek. I'm not that good at translating, but she started talking about our trip to Mt. Olympus.
"Hey someone who can't speak Greek over here." Grover said in a loud whisper. Annabeth and I turned to tell him what we are talking about, but someone beat us to it.
"They are talking about Mt. Olympus and the gods from the myths." A girl with blond, spiky hair. Annabeth's eye pop put of her head. Mine are probably doing the same. Annabeth is the first to speak.
"How do you know ancient Greek?" Annabeth asked.
"We are from Greece. How do you ancient Greek?" The blond asked.
I make up a lie. "We take it in school for our langue, but not him." I point to Grover. "I'm Percy. This is my girlfriend Annabeth and my best friend Grover." I point to them when I say their names.
"I'm Nicole. The lovebirds over there are Phoebe and Griffin, and Troy my best bud." She points to them.
"Four friends from afar." Annabeth says like she is in a dazed. "They could be them." She whispers to me and Grover out of the dazed.
"What do you mean by "Four friends from afar"?" Nicole asks. Annabeth's eye pop out of her head. "That sounds like a…never mind."
"Like a what?" I ask. The subway pulls up to the station. We all stand up. "I'm guessing you guys are going to the Empire state building." I try to change the subject.
"Yeah we think it will be cool." That Phoebe girl. She is still holding hands with her boyfriend.
"That is where we are going." Grover says. I send a glare at him. He mouths the words sorry.
"Cool, we can walk with you. We don't know much about you guys. How old are you?" Nicole asks. I can see she likes to get right to the point.
"I'm seventeen." I say.
"Same here." I know that is Annabeth. I know Grover won't say anything because he is like in his thirty's or something like that.
"We are eighteen." Nicole says. I can tell she is the leader person in the group.
We talk a joke around with them. Annabeth likes to ask them about Athens. We arrive at the Empire State Building. We walk in.
"What floor are you guys going to?" I ask.
"The top one so I can see the view. I hear it is beautiful." Phoebe says.
"It is. I need to ask the front desk something. Be right back." Annabeth turns and to the counter. She went to get the key for the elevator. We talked a little while. We say our byes and head to the elevator.
Phoebe's POV
Those kids are weird. They left to go get into the elevator. They were the only ones in.
"They are acting weird. Can you all autoport?" I ask.
"Yeah, what are you thinking?" Nicole asks.
"We teleport into the elevator to see why they are acting all weird."I suggested. Everyone nodded. We find a corner. When no one is looking we all teleport into the elevator.
"How did you get in here?" Annabeth asked. I look up at the number for the floor. I don't answer her question.
"Why are you going to the six hundredth floor when there isn't on?" I need to know the answer.
"I'll answer your question if you answer mine." Annabeth must get here way a lot.
"We teleported. The descendents of the…never mind. Now answer mine." I was starting to sound like Nicole.
"Mt. Olympus. What were you going to say the descendents of the?" Annabeth has a curious mind like Athena kids.
"We are descendents of gods. Mt. Olympus can't be on top of the Empire State Building." I said. Then I realized I just told them my secret. Annabeth, Percy, and Grover don't look surprised.
"You seem to believe that?" Troy said.
"Well duh we believe you. Our parents are gods." Percy says. It is my turn to be surprised.
"WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY!" Nicole yells.
"Annabeth and I are demigods."Percy just said they are demigods. If he and Annabeth are demigods, what is Grover?
"What is Grover than?" Griffin asks.
"Satyr. See my hooves." We all look down. Where his feet should be are hooves.
"They must be the four friends from a far and they might just meet their ancestors." Annabeth says. She is super smart. She must be a child of Athena.
"You must be a child of Athena even though you aren't nerdy." Troy says. He would know. He has been at Serfopoula the longest out of all of us.
"I'm a child of Athena. None of us are nerds." Annabeth looked affined, but flattered.
"I don't know who you might be." Troy said while looking at Percy. We arrived at the six hundredth floor.
The doors open up. It is amazing. The there is a whole town over Manhattan. Everything is floating on clouds. The only bad thing is it looks like it is in the process of rebuilding like they had a war.
"Welcome to Mt. Olympus. The architect of Mt. Olympus is the one and only me, Annabeth Chase." Annabeth said with pride in her voice. We step out.
"How could you design this place when it was built millions of years ago?" Nicole asks.
"After the second titan war this place was destroyed. Since I was one of the heroes that saved this place the gods voted to let me redesign the place."
Grover, Percy, and Annabeth walk strait to a building. We fallow. Everyone looked at us.
We step into the building. There were twelve thrones sitting in a U shape. They were all occupied by ten foot tall girls and guys. Percy, Annabeth and Grover walked over to them and bowed. We did the same. A booming voice broke the silence.
"What are they doing here?" The god in the suit and tie says.
