Annabeth's POV:

That night at dinner Percy looked like he was in a whole other world. Even though he had lots of food in front of him he was still clutched that notebook he had before in the hand he was not holding his fork in. After a while he began to eat his dinner but I noticed that he was handing people things they wanted before they asked.

I mentioned this to Thalia and she watched him a while before saying," You're right. He is doing that. How is he doing that?"

I looked over at him once more before saying to Thalia, "I have no clue."

I was just about to ask Percy why he was here at the orphanage trying to get him to talk when he looked at Chiron and then at his now empty plate, Chiron noticing this nodded and Percy got up took his plate to the sink and left with his notebook in hand. I frowned was that a coincidence or did Percy know I was going to ask a question that he didn't want to answer?

After dinner I was heading upstairs to my room when I bumped into Percy, he didn't look startled.

"Sorry." I mumbled.

He shot me an apologetic glance. I was curious as of why he never talked so I decided to ask. "Do you ever talk?"

He shook his head no.

"Why?"

I know it was a little rude but I needed... well I wanted to know.

He didn't seem like he was about to answer so I said, "Sorry that was a little rude."

And went to walk past him but then he shook his head no and looked deep in thought before motioning me over. I stepped up closer to him he lifted his hand up to my forehead, I suddenly saw flashes of the orphanage but they weren't right I saw me but I looked older the pictures came faster and faster I soon couldn't make any since of them they were just blurry colors, the 'pictures' stopped suddenly I saw me standing on the stairs with Percy's hand on my forehead then I heard what I assumed was Percy's voice "I have been alive 14 years, 8 months, 20 days, 6 hours and in all that time I have never spoken a single word."

I was back on the stairs in the orphanage I saw Percy in front of me lowering his hand he smiled at me before turning around and heading back up the stairs, back to were he was coming from. I just stood there shocked I didn't know what to do, what was that? I ran into my room and sat on my bed thinking. I had just asked Percy why he never talks so was that a hint or something? If it was all it did was leave me more confused rather then helping me. I mean what he did should have been imposable. I sat there in a state of shock for a while before it gave way to determination. There was something weird about Percy and I was going to figure it out.

I heard a knock on the door, "Come in."

Thalia and the Stoll's walked into my room, Thalia sat on my bed but the Stoll's sat on the floor.

"So what's up?" I asked trying to get right to the point.

Conner spoke up, "We are going to steal Percy's notebook."

I wasn't surprised by this but why his notebook? "Why his notebook?" I said, speaking my thoughts.

"He never lets it go there must be something important in it."

I nodded it made sense until I thought of something else, "So why are you telling me?"

"We need look outs and I think you will be interested in what we find."

He was right. Just a few seconds ago I had said I would figure Percy out, here was a chance at that.

I nodded "I'm in."

"Okay lets go."

"Wait now? Its like seven no one will be asleep now."

They looked at me and Thalia spoke up, "Annabeth its almost one in the morning."

My mouth dropped open, I guess I was in shock longer then I thought, "Oh, well okay then. Lets go."

Once we where out in the hallway I started having serious doubts I almost never got in trouble, I didn't like getting in trouble especially for something like this.

"Why did I agree to this?"

I mumbled this to my self but Thalia heard and said, "You're here because you are just as curious about Percy as I am."

"Shhh! Do you want us to get caught?" Travis whispered to us.

We were walking down the hallway trying to find Percy's room. There were five rooms that had been empty before Percy came and he could be in anyone of them.

"Try this one." Thalia said pointing towards a random door.

"No this one." Conner said pointing to the one a crossed from Thalia.

"This one." Conner said pointing to one down the hall I sighed and stepped up to the door between Thalia's chosen door and Katie's room and put my ear up to it, I heard a soft snoring and motioned to the others to come over.

When they were next to me I whispered, 'Its this one."

They looked at me and shrugged they knew that I was almost always right. Conner picked the lock and slowly opened the door. The Stoll's then slipped inside while Thalia and I kept watch outside the door. I figured that the Stoll's would take a while but only a minute later they came out with the notebook and an odd look on their faces.

As we passed Katie's room I swear I heard footsteps behind the door but I shrugged it of as an echo of our foot steps. Finally we got to my room and walked in and the Stoll's started talking immediately, I couldn't understand them but luckily Thalia had a way with people.

"Shut up and talk one at a time!" She yelled as loud as she dared so to not wake anyone up.

"Now say that again but slower and one at a time." Thalia said it in a threatening voice then pointed at Conner "You first."

"Well we expected the note book to be hidden or at lest out of direct sight."

"Your saying that it wasn't?" I asked.

Travis spoke up then, " It was in plan sight almost like he wanted us to find it, it was so weird."

I thought about the event on the stairs could it be possible that he did want us to find it? "Lets look in the notebook I want to know what's in it more then ever now, and we still have to get it back into his room."

The others nodded and I slowly opened the cover of the notebook. I don't know what I expected to see but it wasn't this. On the first page there was a drawing of a lady in her 30's, underneath the drawing there was a caption in pencil it said, "Mom on her 35 birthday" but underneath that in pen it said "Last day I saw her" it was obvious that they were from different times but probably the same day. I slowly passed the book around and let every one look.

"He is a really good drawer." Thalia commented, I nodded it was true it was like looking at a picture.

I put the book down in the middle of us so every one could see it and turned the page. I saw a drawing of two random people, a girl with black hair and brown eyes she was with a boy that looked like her I bet they were siblings, I looked for a caption but saw none. Frowning I flipped the page and saw Thalia?

It was obviously Thalia but she was smiling looking down at a boy with blond hair and a scar on his lip Thalia gasped and I looked up at her, "Flip the page." She commanded I flipped the page but not before seeing the caption it said "Thalia and Jason Grace."

The next page took my breath away it was a beautiful, it showed Half-blood Orphanage and in front of it was all of the kids here with a few kids that I had never seem before and the black haired kids from the second page the sun was just setting and the orphanage looked fixed up not so warn down, to the sides of the kids was a small flower garden that wasn't there now. I saw me and was shocked to see me look older but then I reminded myself that it was a drawing not a picture.

I reluctantly took my gaze of the drawing and to the caption it had a date on it, "August 18th 2013" I looked at the date over and over again before saying, "You guys see the date right?" They nodded not knowing what to say, it was just so random.

I flipped to a random page trying to get away from the weird date and flipped to a page that had a drawing of me on it. The caption said "Annabeth Chase if you are reading this I must have done something to peek your curiosity but I warn you now STOP READING. I stopped there; there was nothing more to read any way but how had Percy know that I was going to read this?

I gave it to Thalia and her eyes widened and looked up, "Well I think we saw all we needed to see." She said closing the notebook and giving it back to the Stoll's they nodded and left the room.

I wouldn't let Thalia leave I needed some one to tell me all this was impossible. I was currently pacing in front of my bed thinking things over. How could Percy have known that I was going to read that? And how did he know my name? No one had told him my name right? I had so many questions flaying threw my head and no answers I finally gave up and flopped on the bed burying my face in my pillow.

Thalia sat down next to me and said, "One step at a time what do we know about Percy?"

"Nothing." I said but it was muffled because my head was in my pillow.

Thalia sighed and said, "Look I need to tell you something."

I looked up surprised, "What?"

"You know that drawing of me that was in Percy's notebook? How there was a little boy with me?"

I nodded not sure were she was going with this, sure I had seen the caption but Percy couldn't know every thing could he? What Thalia said next shocked me.

"That boy was my little brother. He died or at least I thought he had died anyway now I am not sure."

I didn't say anything I thought about this thinking about all of the possibilities.

After a while Thalia said, "Maybe Percy can read minds."

I knew that it was supposed to be a joke it made me shiver Percy had done something on the stairway I wasn't sure what but I was willing to believe everything and any thing right now.

"What if he can?" I whispered.

"Don't be ridiculous that is impossible." But she was silent at the end after seeing my face "Isn't it?"

I told her what had happened on the stairs she was silent for a minute before whispering "Wow."

"I know, I keep thinking I imagined it and am going crazy."

There was a sudden knock on the door. We froze, who would be up at three in the morning?
