hello Lovely readers :) It's been a while, hasn't it? I've been writing a Gallagher Girls (Titled: Leaving. Check it out!) story and soaking up every minute of summer! but I decided it was time to resume this story, especially with the hell of a cliffhanger I left you on!
"This isn't possible," I said for the billionth time. Rachel had just explained about Sam. I was pacing her cabin and Annabeth was curled up in a chair in the corner. Sam seemed to be in shock to say the least. As soon as Rachel finished, she walked out muttering something about the lake.
"Percy, why would I lie about this?" I sighed, she had a point, she isn't the practical joker type.
"It's all just so impossible!"
"You'd think he would have opened his mind a little after he found out he was a demigod," sneered Annabeth from her chair.
"Annabeth think about it! Why would you and I send her back in time, with no memory and a fake birth certificate! Rachel must be mistaken!"
Rachel let out a frustrated sigh, "Percy do you want me to tell you the dream again? Maybe it will help you understand."
I just nodded, not meeting Rachel's eyes."
"Two weeks ago I had a dream. In this dream I saw what I now realize is New York about fourteen years in the future. I saw you and Annabeth walking down the street with Sam. You two were talking about how excited she would be to see the finished product of Olympus. When you were a few yards away from the Empire State Building, the sky suddenly turned a sickly grey. Lightning lit up the sky. You both tensed and looked up. I followed your gaze and was shocked to see Olympus, for the first time not protected by the magic that keeps it invisible from the ground. Many people saw it and started screaming. Due to the panic and confusion, I only heard the beginning of your conversation."
Rachel took a breath, looking scared. "Percy yelled, 'We have to do it now! It is the only way to save her!' Annabeth, looking panicked shouted, 'You of all people should know that you can't outrun prophecies!' Then Percy grabbed Annabeth hands and started to speak, but by now everybody had seen Olympus floating in the sky and I couldn't hear what he, you, said."
Annabeth now had tears running down her face, and I was frozen. Since I heard the dream once before I knew what was coming next.
"Percy then grabbed Sam's hand and pulled her into an empty store. Annabeth pulled off her purse and pulled out a backpack saying something about the children of Hecate. She handed Sam the backpack and hugged her tight. Percy gave her a kiss on the forehead and took out Riptide and…"
Rachel was crying again. Last time it took ten minutes to find out what future me did. However, this time she managed to compose herself quickly and finish.
"And he brought it down through Sam. She dissolved into dust. Then I woke up."
I sat down on a chair opposite Annabeth.
"Why didn't you come tell Annabeth and I, or even Chiron when you had this dream."
"You two seemed so happy. I didn't want to ruin that. Besides it's a bad thing to know too much of your future."
I sighed, "Thank Rachel. Annabeth, go find Sam and meet me in the Big House, we need to talk to Chiron."
We both got up, Annabeth hugged Rachel goodbye and I gave her a stiff nod. Then we walked out the cabin, Annabeth headed towards the lake and I set off to the Big House.
Sooooooooo?
