Prologue
Smoke billowed around the oracle, Rachel Dare. Her eyes glowed green for the first time in years as the spirit of Delphi overtook her once again, revealing the next Great Prophecy.
"Children of Olympus, take heed and beware
You must seek out Night, but there is danger there
One will not live, one will cut it close
Be very careful around the one you trust most"
Rachel collapsed, grabbing the side of the table in the Big House for support. Chiron paced back and forth.
"Yet another Great Prophecy. Who will fulfill it, we do not know, correct?"
Rachel nodded. "Yeah. I really hope Night isn't who I think it is..."
"I'm afraid that Night is a terrible force." Chiron said. "Nyx. The primordial goddess of night."
Rachel gulped. "What? But there hasn't been a primordial that's awakened since Gaea!"
Chiron shook his head. "I fear that is not true. Nyx has been awake for a long time, waiting for her chance in the depths of Tartarus. And now she strikes, hoping to defeat the Olympian gods once and for all."
I've got a reason for re-posting the prologue. One, I don't want any accidents with FFN deleting this story. I had that happen once, and it sucked. Two, I've got an announcement (DON'T KILL ME)! I will have the first chapter up soon, but I will not be making this a long story. I can guarantee that it probably won't be more than 20 chapters.
Now, before you get mad at me, I do have the first chapter written. The second is being written, as well. But, I do have a busy schedule, as well as another story that's kinda popular. So updates for this story will be extremely infrequent. I'm honestly sorry about this, but I'm so busy. You know how seventh grade is. Anyway, I promise to do the best I can with updates, but no promises, okay? Okay.
Sorry, I had to.
But seriously, I really can't promise chapters every week or so. Some stories have one chapter in months, and by then no one bothers to read it. I'll try my best to not have that happen, but still...
Look, I say this on every chapter of every story I've ever written, but I really do love all my readers. And it's true. You guys push me to be the totally insane kid I am. And so what if I get a few questions from the kids at school about why I'm always jotting ideas down in my notebook, or why I'm constantly bringing PJO/HoO books to class so I can brush up? They can go to Tartarus, because you guys really do make me who I am. And this story is for you. All of you. So I'll do the best I can, and that's an honest-to-goodness promise.
Even though this is a REALLY long author's note, I had to say this. I wanted to let you know the status with this. I will do my best to make sure this isn't like 90% of SYOCs, where it's just abandoned forever. If I absolutely have to, I will put it up for adoption, but I'm not doing that, and have no current plans to, so NO ONE GET ANY IDEAS.
Seriously, you guys are fabulous. And I'm sorry that this is the longest AN in the world, but I wanted to tell you guys what's what. I love you all. Thanks for everything.
Yours in demigoddishness,
Megan, AKA We're All Okay
