Hey, guys! I'm trying to find a plot in this story, and I got nothing. Maybe there should be a bomb and everyone dies in the end, or maybe Annabeth and Percy have a baby named Timmy. Then Timmy grows up being a genius and can control water. Then Timmy has a kid with a daughter of Hephaestus. What are the chances that their kid is a genius, controls water, and controls fire? What if that kid gets a quest, and has to fight someone else who knows charmspeak, controls lightning, and is an awesome fighter? What if they fall in love? What if they refuse to fight each other? What if another demi-god, who controls the dead, can heal people, and controls plants, shows up? What if that demi-god destroys the world and the story ends?

See, guys? I come up with terrible plots. I told you I was hopeless.

Disclaimer: I do not own Percy Jackson and the Olympians.

Hazel's POV

Torches lined the walls of the dirt tunnel. Only the first four torches were lit. I went to grab one of them, and it floated right out of its place into my hands. It startled me so much I dropped it.

There was some type of oil on the floor right next to the wall. It caught flame and traveled down the tunnel. I took a step back and watched the flames go so high that it skimmed the ceiling.

I suddenly got a cold feeling all around me. I turned around to see if anyone else felt it too. Everyone gave me the I-can't-believe-you-just-did-that look.

"What? It was an accident!" I said.

Percy started to freak out, "We're going to die!" He sat against the other wall, and cradled his knees. He rocked back and forth mumbling something under his breath.

Annabeth laughed hysterically, "If we stay away from the wall, we're not going to burn to death." As soon as she said that word, death, I figured out what that cold feeling was.

Someone was going to die.

"What about the smoke? Can't we suffocate, or something?" Piper said. The cold feeling got stronger.

Behind Piper was a shadowy figure. I squinted to make it out. It was person reaching their arms out to Piper's shoulders.

I pushed Piper away from it. She opened her mouth to say something, but I cut her off, "Run!"

I lead the sprint down the tunnel. We ran into crossroads, and I quickly figured out which way we should go. We ran for what felt like hours.

I wasn't looking where I was going, and would have fallen into a cavern if Frank didn't pull me back. I mumbled a thank you and stood up. The drop was thousand feet, easy.

The cold feeling was even stronger over here.

Jason panted, "What now?"

I opened my mouth to say something, but I closed it right after. What was there to say? We stood there for a few minutes, catching our breath.

Piper asked, "What exactly were we running from?"

"That's just it. I don't know." I said.

Annabeth put her hand up, "Do you guys hear that?"

I listened for a sound, and I got one. It sounded like a crying baby.

Almost immediately, Percy said, "Hear what?"

"Sshh," Piper said, "It sounds like . . . a baby."

"I don't hear anything." Frank said.

"Neither do I." Jason added.

"Are you guys sure you're not imagining it?" Percy asked.

"It's definitely a baby." I said.

Annabeth's POV

It was dark, but I managed to make out what was across the cavern. There were three tunnels leading off. I stared at them, and guessed that the noise was coming from the middle one.

Hazel went to the edge of the cavern, and said, "Hold hands everyone. We're crossing over."

Frank's eyes went wide, "Are you kidding me?!" Hazel grabbed his hand in response. Piper grabbed her other hand.

Jason ran over and grabbed Piper's hand, "If we fall, I want to make sure I can catch you."

Percy grabbed his hand, "Aww thanks, Jason." I rolled my eyes and grabbed Percy's hand.

"On the count of five," Hazel yelled.

1. Suddenly I felt extremely hot. There was breeze coming from the cavern.

2. I racked my brain trying to figure out why.

3. The only thought it my head was volcano, but that's impossible.

4. I didn't know what it was, but we had to get away from here.

"Wait!" I screamed.

Piper stumbled, and her leg dangled off the side. Jason was pulling her up when a wall of red shot up from the cavern. Piper screamed, and Jason tugged her back. We all backed up, and Piper screamed in agony.

I ran to Piper's side, and looked at her leg. It was burned all the way to her knee. Luckily, she wasn't missing any parts. Jason pushed her shoulders to the ground. She struggled with him, and cried out. I closed my eyes, and tried to come up with a plan. We didn't have anything to use. There was no ambrosia.

"Annabeth," I opened my eyes, and Hazel was sitting next to me. She pointed to Piper's leg, "Look."

I had to blink a couple times to make sure I was seeing correctly. Her leg was healing, and it was healing fast.

"Jason, look." I nudged him. He looked at Piper's leg, then at me.

"How?" He asked. I shrugged.

Jason let go of Piper, and she sat up. She stared at her leg, and turned to Hazel and me, "How did you do that?"

"It healed by itself." Hazel said.

"Hey, guys. You should look at this." Frank yelled. He was standing at the edge of the cavern. The lava was gone, but that doesn't mean it won't come back.

"Frank, get away from there!" Hazel yelled at him.

Frank said, "No, come here. Look at what Percy and I found."

I walked over to him, "Where is Percy?"

Frank pointed to the ceiling. I looked up, and sure enough, Percy was up there. His hands and feet were sticking to the ceiling somehow, and he was crawling in circles.

"What the fuck?" Piper said when she saw him.

Percy's POV

I grinned at my friends and waved. Annabeth yelled, "How did you get up there?"

I yelled back, "Isn't it obvious? I climbed the wall."

Frank said, "We can get across by crawling across the ceiling."

"Isn't that dangerous?" Hazel asked.

"Not if you believe!" I yelled.

"Okay, Percy is officially crazy." Jason said.

"Ooh, this is fun!" Piper said as she climbed the wall. A look of horror went across Jason's face when he saw her. He started to climb the wall too. Frank and Hazel followed them.

The only one left was Annabeth. I called down to her, "Aren't you coming?"

"I'm trying to figure out how this is working, but I can't think of anything." Annabeth said.

"Don't think. Just do."

She looked at me, "You sound like Peter Pan."

"Really? I was going for Spiderman."

She laughed, "Well, you got the wall climbing part down." Annabeth finally climbed the wall, and met up with us.

"Now what?" She asked.

"Now, we crawl." I said.

Piper said to Jason, "I'll race you."

"You're on!" Jason and Piper scrambled to the other side. Piper was cheering when the rest of us made it across.

"I won!" Piper stuck her tongue out at Jason.

He said, "You cheated!"

Hazel looked at the floor, "How do we get down?"

"Like this." I lifted my legs off the ceiling. They swung underneath me, and I dropped to the floor.

Everyone was gawking at me, so I started to laugh, "It's not hard. Just try."

Jason said, "Here goes nothing." He did what I did, and landed on his feet.

Piper landed on her feet and said, "Is it wrong that I want to go again?"

Frank stumbled when he came down, but he was fine. Hazel landed on her feet, but didn't keep her balance and fell on her butt.

I looked up at Annabeth, "Come on, Annabeth. I'll be right here to catch you."

She took a deep breath, and lifted her feet. They swung underneath her, and she landed on the ground.

Piper yelled, "What the fuck?" She was clenching her ears.

Hazel winced, and Annabeth said, "That baby needs to shut up!"

Jason said, "What's going on?"

Hazel answered him, "You know the baby that was crying? Yeah, it's getting louder."

"I still don't hear it." I said.

"Okay, that's it. I am going to find that baby." Piper marched into the tunnel on the far right.

"Piper, wait!" Jason yelled. He ran after her.

Annabeth called after them, "We should stick together!" I looked into the tunnel, and they were gone.

Frank's POV

I guess I should tell them now. It has been too long, "I have a confession."

Percy looked at me, "What?"

I scratched behind my neck, "I didn't want to say anything about it before because I wasn't sure, but, um, I'm pretty sure Leo fell in the hole with us."

Hazel yelled at me, "Why didn't you say this before! We could've gone back for him! Now, it's too late."

Annabeth said, "Where is he?" #WheresLeo

Percy smiled, "I think I know where Leo is."

"Where?" Hazel asked.

"In my back pocket." His smile turned into a grin.

I laughed. That was clever. Hazel shook her head, and Annabeth smacked him.

"I think we should go left. I have a feeling the baby is there." Hazel said.

"The baby is in the middle one. I'm positive." Annabeth argues.

I went to grab Hazel before she starts an argument, but I was too late. They started to yell at each other.

I grabbed Hazel anyways, "Sshh, stop yelling."

"I'm better experienced with tunnels! Just because she's the daughter of Athena doesn't mean she's always right! I'm the daughter of fucking Hades! I would know."

"I know, but Annabeth is not going to change her mind. Just be the bigger person, okay?" Hazel reluctantly nodded. I kissed the top of her head and turned around. Percy and Annabeth were gone.

Hazel screamed, "That bitch! Of course she would go in the tunnel anyways!"

I put my arm around Hazel, "Only one tunnel is left." She smiled, and we walked in.

Torches were lit on the inside. There was a breeze coming from the back of us, yet the flames bended towards us. The torches behind us seemed to change direction just to face us. I put my arm tighter around Hazel.

A low growl erupted in front of us. I stopped in my tracks. The beast came forward to reveal a wolf. It bared its teeth, and barked at us.

A male voice came from the wolf's direction, "Leave, now! It's not safe here."

I stepped forward, "Who are you?" The wolf barked at us again. I realized the male voice came from the wolf.

It spoke again, "You shouldn't be here. Go back."

"We heard a baby crying. We wanted to find out why." Hazel said.

"You heard a baby, not me." I said.

The wolf looked startled, "Y-you hear the baby?"

"Yes. Am I not supposed to?" Hazel said.

"No, you have a very special skill. Follow me; I will lead you to him." The wolf started to walk away, and we had no choice but to follow.

A few minutes later the wolf spoke again, "Just to warn you, the other wolves won't be as friendly. Don't speak to them; just nod your head in obedience. To the males, not the females, otherwise, they will fight you, and I will not take your side. My father wouldn't approve."

"Um, how do we know if it is a male or female?" I asked.

"The males will have their tails up."

"Why don't you have your tail up?" I tried not to sound rude.

"My father thinks I'm a disgrace to the family because I disobeyed his orders."

We walked for a few more minutes, and came across some doors. The wolf said, "Welcome to my home."

Jason's POV

Piper stopped us, "Do you hear that?"

"The baby? No."

"Not the baby, the whispering." I closed my eyes, and started to hear it too.

"It sounds like incantations." I said.

"Sshh, what are they saying?" Piper said. I listened again.

Ερχόμαστε να πάρουν την ψυχή σας

"We come to take your soul." Piper said.

"Alright, we're leaving. That is too creepy for me." I turned around.

Piper grabbed my arm, "No, we have to keep going. There's a baby that's in there, and it sounds like it needs help."

"Don't you find it even a little bit strange that you're the only one that can hear it?"

Piper let go of my arm, "I'm going to save that baby whether you're with me or not!"

I felt a pang in my heart, "How could you say that? Of course, I am with you."

She turned away from me, "Well, lately you haven't been that supportive."

"Hey," I grabbed her arm, "I'm sorry. I'll try harder I promise."

She shrugged my arm off, "Yeah, whatever."

I lagged behind her, and tried to come up with a way to fix this. Actually, a way to fix everything.

So, what do you think? This chapter was originally longer, but I cut it in half. The next half will be chapter 3. About the update schedule, it will mostly be on Saturdays, but this time it's a Friday. I'm busy tomorrow. Five reviews please! I'll upload chapter 3 immediately if I get it!

Peace out!
