Yay! It's Prologue time! Review if you like. If you don't, review and tell me why ;). This is the second fanfiction story I'm writing. I will try to update fairly reguarly, but I have the other fanfic, and two long stories that I'm working on. Not to mention school and theatre and such. And finally Disclaimer! I do not own any of RR's characters *pouts*.

"Calli!", Arabella ran up be hind her, tangled black hair flying. Bella had taken after her mother, and only her mother when it came to appearance. Personality on the other hand...not so much.

"Yeah?", Calli asked slowly. Her dazed look and glazed over eyes was not uncommon for anytime of day, especially night time, as it was at the time.

"Mom said to come home. Bye!", she said, pulling Calli into a hug. The two were best friends and spent almost everyday playing together. Bella quickly darted off to bid the rest of the family goodbye.

Calli wandered into her brother's room and pulled herself onto his bed. David sat in the floor arguing with Iliana and Daniel, about who had really won Monopoly even though none of them really knew how to play. Bella ran in, hugged both Iliana and David (who continued to argue regardless of whether they were being hugged or not), and dragged Daniel out of the room to go home.

"You kids ready for bed?", Annabeth walked into the room in her usual blue jeans and t-shirt.

"No!", all three children answered in unison. For some reason, no could ever figure out, they always seemed to be able to do so.

"Well ready or not you're going.", she picked up Calli who was only half aware of what was going on, and hearded Iliana out of the room. She took the girls to their rooms, tucked Calli in and made sure Iliana had gotten to bed. Just before she shut the door, Iliana spoke.

"Mom?", she asked in a small voice.

"Hhm?"

"Why do they come?", her voice was barely above a whisper.

"Why do what come?", Annabeth asked, though she already knew. It truely worried and frightened her.

"The nightmares.", Annabeth walked over to her daughter's side. She sat on the edge of the bed, laying a hand on Iliana's face. And then on her scarred, burned hand.

"I don't know, sweety.", she answered,"try to get some sleep. They're just dreams."

She kissed her forehead and walked out, into the hall. She shut the door and headed down stairs, where she was greeted with open arms. Percy pulled her into a hug.

"The girl in bed?", he asked.

"Yeah. How about David?"

"Yep". He turned, one arm still around her shoulders. They walked to their room, both exhausted from the day's work.

Calli woke up to the cold feeling of eyes boring into her. Turning on the lamp she looked around, but saw no one. She turned the lamp back off and ran to her sister's room. Calli nudged Ilians's arm in an atempt to wake her. Iliana jumped, gaping for air. Sweat beaded her forehead.

"Calli what are you doing?", Iliana asked, rubbing her eyes.

"Something's wrong.", for most kids this would just be dismissed as an attempt to stay up, but Calli was a special case. She had a strange...'gift'. Being a granddaughter of Athena, she had gotten a very rare power that even Athena's children had a one in a million chance of having. Calli could see the past present and future of the entire world by just touching an item that had something, anything, to do with the realative area it around it at any point in time. She often times would be withdrawn from the present time because of this, mainly because she was still learning to control her power. This whole case of something could be absolutly nothing at the momment or it could be everything. You never did really know.

"What do you mean? What's wrong?"

"David.", Calli grabbed her sister's wrist and pulled her to the door. Iliana followed the small girl downstairs to David's room. She caught a glance at the clock, 2:43 a.m. They entered David's room, to find him reading on a tablet.

"David.", Iliana said. He looked up.

"What are you guys doing?"

"Calli says something's wrong." Calli hopped onto the bed looking at the tablet, atempting to read what ever it was he had on their.

Turning to look at her David asked,"What is it? What's wrong?". Calli ignored him, taking the tablet, she started to sound out words one by one. David sighed.

"What's wrong?", he asked turning his attention to Iliana.

"Beats me. She just woke me up and said something's wrong."

"False alarm?"

"Guess so.", she replied shrugging her shoulders. She began to reach for Calli's hand. The door slammed shut with a wham, locking with a click. Everything in the room began to shutter as the temperature dropped at least 10 degrees.

"David?", Calli asked in a quiet voice.

"Get in the closet.", he said, his voice firm.

"What?", Iliana had thought she hadn't heard him right.

"Take Calli and get in the closet."

"What about you?"

"Get in the Closet!", he yelled, pushing Iliana down onto the floor of the closet and setting Calli down in her arms.

"Bu-", he shut the door. The two sisters held onto each other tight as screams, crashes, and breaking glass echoed in their ears. They could hear their parents yelling to open the door as they tried to force it open themselves.

A young girl, no older than ten, manifested in front of David. She was dressed in a too-big hoodie, jeans, and tennis shoes. Her greasy hair was pulled into a lazy bun; her skin the color of ash and her eyes a glowing red. Everything about the girl was odd, but the strangest thing had to have been the fact that David could see right through her. He watched as her finger nails grew into claws. She gave a cold, evil smile. Thrusting her claws into his skin she began to brutally rip his torso open. He let out scream after scream, the screams mirroring each slash at his body. His organs had been punctured and blood coated everything in the room. Somehow he remained consious, lying in agony to hurt to even scream.

"David!", Percy and Annabeth continued to scream and bang on the door. The girl walked to the corner. Just before she blended in to the shadows, she flicked her hand at the door. There was a faint click, signalling the door had been unlocked. Percy and Annabeth prctically tripped over themselves to get in.

Iliana and Calli could both her their parents broken-hearted screaming. Calli pressed her head into her sister's neck trying to block out the sounds. They both silently cried. Startled Calli jumped when there was a final loud crash; it had been a the first un-explainable crash they'd heard since their parents had come into the room.

They sat in the closet, in absolute silence for some time. They managed to hear someone come through the front door. Putting Callie on the other side of the closet, Iliana stood as best she could with the clothes in the way.

"Stay here, and do not open your eyes.", she ordered. Neither one had left the closet since David had pushed them in there. Taking a deep breath, she stepped out.

The sight before her was more gruesome than anything she had ever thought possible, more so than any horror movie she had ever seen [she had watched many without permission]. Her brother was unrecognizable, his body so torn up it was hard to tell he was even human. She stood staring unable to move or even process what lay before her. Shards of glass cut deep into her feet as she just stood watching. A bunch of cops burst through the door.

"Where are the parents?", a tall, burly one asked a rather ill looking woman.

" No trace of them."

"Alright, get the other two kids then."

The woman walked over to her, laying a hand on her shoulder. She seemed to notice that one of the closet doors was open. Opening the other door, she saw Calli and picked her up. Calli, luckily listened to Iliana and kept her eyes shut as the woman carried her to the other room. When she came back, she guided a shell-shocked Iliana out of the room.

So that it for this chapter. Thanks for reading. The next one will be really starting up the story. This is just kind of setting up for that. Bye.
