"Why did you attack the girl, Megaera?" Nico yelled at the Furie.
"I am sorry, master, but I may not say," the Furie responded warily.
"Megaera, I command you to tell me."
"No, master, it isn't time."
"Time for what?" Nico asked, growing impatient.
"I may not say."
"Fine, then who is the girl?"
The Furie growled and Nico smiled. He knew he could get this answer.
"Who is the girl you attacked?" he repeated.
"Ocean, daughter of Poseidon."
Nico just stared at the Furie in total shock. Megaera found Ocean. Percy, Annabeth, Rachel and himself had been looking for Ocean without any results for two years. Once Poseidon told Percy he had a sister, they immediatly went to look for her. But even Poseidon didn't know where she was. Just a month ago they gave up, assuming the worst.
"You're lying," Nico said to the Furie.
"You saw her," argued the monster. "You saw the water."
Nico thought back to the glimpse he had given the girl. Her hair was black, and her skin had an olive tone, it all showed her Hispanic heritage. Her lips were round, she wasn't skinny but she wasn't fat, she was normal. Her eyes were sea green…like Percy's.
"Crap." Nico ran into the tunnel he just came from and was back in the hall where he left the girl. Some men were fixing the fountain in the hallway, but they hadnt noticed his sudden appearence in the hallway. He had thought Magera broke the fountain, but now realized that Ocean had been behind it. Listening closely, he thought he could hear her voice.
"I just need to get my things, Silver. Then we can change at my house. Then to the beach." she said. Nico walked to the corner of the hall and peered down toward the sound of the voice.
"Yay." said a high light voice he assumed was Silver. "Are you cold?"
"No, not really."
"Really? Because you know…you got really wet back there."
"The only bad thing that can happen is that my necklace will rust."
"True, are you done?" Silver asked, jesturing to the open locker in front of them.
"Yeah, come on."
Nico was amazed that she could act so calm after what had just happend but, he noticed that her hands were shaking slightly. He followed them silently out of the school and decided it would probably be best to tell Percy and Annabeth about this. Then he left to the Beacon Hotel that was about a mile away and walked into the lobby. He went up to the front desk to ask someone where his friends might be.
"I'm looking for Percy Jackson and Annabeth-," he started to say but was interrupted by a voice coming from somewhere behind him.
"Nico!"
He turned. It was Percy and Annabeth. Annabeth was waving at him.
He ran to them. Getting right to the point he said, "Percy, I know where your sister is. She's not dead, I saw her!"
"What? Where?" Percy asked, eyes wide.
"Here. Well, in a school here. Megaera attacked her. I couldnt get her to tell me why, but she told me who she was! It's Ocean!"
"Well…how was she? Is she okay?"
"Yeah, she's great."
"Well is she…where is she?"
"She's going to the beach; most likely Miami Beach. I started to follow her to her house but then remembered you were vacationing here for a week. Her eyes are the same color as yours, her skin is olive toned and her hairs black, long too but she'll probably have it up. She has a friend. She's short, ash blond, and has kind of goldish eyes."
Percy just felt so happy, his heart felt filled. He hugged Nico hard. "Thank you so much." he whispered. "Come on."
"I can't."
"Why not?"
"Because she's already seen me. She'll think something's up. And I'm sure it's her but, you know, we should make sure."
"Fine." said Percy. "While we're gone you can go up to our room and hang out.""
Nico laughed. "That's fine with me. But don't tell her what she is yet. Just watch her."
"I know." said Percy. "Come on Annabeth, let's go find my sister."
"Thanks Nico, you're the best." said Annabeth hugging him. "Have fun. Our room is the best. Here's the key."
"Come get me when she leaves."
"Will do." said Percy.
"See ya." said Annabeth.
"Have fun." said Nico and went to their room.
Just so that no one is offended, Percy and Annabeth are meant to be about 18 in this story. So the fact that they are sharing a hotel room is not wierd. Review Please.
