After the campfire Katie and I returned to our cabin. We talked for a while but soon sleep engulfed us.
During that night I had my first dream in a long time. My dream showed me a long tunnel, it was dark and inside I could hear screaming and yelling. I looked around but no one was there. I started running because I could hear the screaming getting closer. I entered a room and as soon as I got in the hallway closed. I was now in a room that had two hallways. As I got to the middle of the room the screaming stopped.
I saw a delta like symbol in between the two hallway entrances. I walked over to it and placed my hand in the center of the symbol. The dream changed I now saw a girl that looked to be about my age. She had shiny blond hair that flowed over her shoulders. She wore a yellow sun dress. She started to speak.
"I know you don't know who I am but I need you to know, I need you to know that I love you and that you have to save us befo-" before she could finish her sentence she got spooked and turned away.
I was now surrounded by darkness. Soon bright white sparks came into view. Small orbs of light surrounded me as I floated in the abyss. I heard a voice speak "come home son."
The dream changed again and I was now envisioning planet after planet imploding onto itself. I wanted to help them I wanted to let all of them climb atop my wings and let me fly them to the ends of the universe trying to save them.
I then envisioned a planet that reminded me of something. It showed me memories. Memories of my girlfriend and memories of my mother. Then the planet imploded.
I woke up in an ocean of cold sweat and me trying to breathe for air. I woke with one thing on my mind. Hemera. I needed to find her, I needed to get to her before she dies.
I ran out of my cabin only to see that it was dark. I saw a chicken shaped thing fly towards me but before it could get to me, shine through me into the air using his head then he caught me on his saddle. He sped me off out towards the sea.
After a while he landed us on an island. It was full of training dummies and shooting ranges and also other things that had to do with fighting.
There was a sign and on it said camp Jupiter. MDCCCXII-MCMLII. I think that's roman numerals for 1812-1952. I stepped off the dragon and made my way to the fighting arena that had tons of destroyed dummies. However there were still some upright and not messed with.
Although the dummy's seamed to be destroyed they started to come alive. They had demonic looking eyes. They had a golden sheen and they all began to speak "no matter if you live or die, Khronos will reign"
As the sentence ended the disfigured dummies attacked. Without thinking I said the words, "forma gladio." I felt a burning sensation on my right forearm and suddenly a steal blade was in my hands and it had a raging fire in the center of the blade.
On my left I saw a chaotic dummy approach me with a sword. Letting my instincts take over I turned towards it, sliced its head off and stabbed a second dummy that now to my left that I didn't even know was there.
Soon I was surrounded by demonic practice dummies that even if I stab or slice them into pieces keep forming back to their original form.
I tried finding shine but he was nowhere to be seen. Suddenly I felt a wave of power surge through me, the wave of power I felt came from behind me. I turned around only to find my dad.
"One day at camp to much for you?" he asked as he stabbed a demon with his trident. "I guess so" I said laughing. He then summoned a wave of extreme force. The wall of water smashed onto the beach, washing away the demonic dummies.
As the wave surpasses all that was left was the buildings and shine, even my father had left.
"hey buddy let's get out of here." I yelled at shine. He then flew by me he flew low so I could jump onto him, but as soon as I got onto him he noes dived strait into the sand.
I got off of him and he apparently he had fainted. I went over to his head and held it in my arms. "hey buddy, shh." I tried to comfort him yet he couldn't hear me.
Then a big flash of light came from behind me. I noticed it to be a satyr. "hello young Perseus. My name is pan. As you might know I'm the lord of the wild.
I would like for you to train with me hear with me. I will train you in nature music and magic. You will also be able to have certain powers of nature. This will allow you to have some of the powers as nymphs. Time will stop and you will never age but you will be hear for at least a year."
After a three of training with pan I had finished my training I got on shine that I had learns so much about. There were so many things I didn't know about him.
I got onto his back and gave pan a goodbye. He wished me luck on my journey and made me swear on the Styx not to tell anyone about him and how he trained me.
As I saw the horizon I changed my clothes to match the ones I had worn the day I left. I jumped off shines back and landed on the porch of my cabin and walked in.
"What are you doing up?" Katie asked as "I just went outside and almost got attacked by a harpy, then after I got away I came back in not wanting to get attacked again" I explained. She nodded then sat up to the edge of her bed.
We talked a bit and laughed a bit but soon it was time for breakfast. We both got up and got dressed and we made our way to the pavilion. It was hard not to talk about my time with pan and my training but I made an oath. I wanted to talk to the nymphs and show them all that I've learnt.
As we got to the pavilion I got some pancakes but they turned out to be blue. I sacrificed some to pan and some to my father. I wanted to give some to my mother who I could remember but I couldn't remember her name.
Chiron made his daily announcements and told everyone that the hunters would stay for capture the flag tonight.
I made my way to the creek bed during my free time right before capture the flag. As I stepped into the creek I fell to the ground and started receiving a vision.
I saw the demonic dummies that attacked me they all formed into one huge demon yet it wasn't all complete. It seemed that there was only one dummy left to finish the mega dummy. I woke up in a completely different place in the forest. I was standing next to what the campers called Zeus' fist.
Apparently the game had already started and I was staring at the enemy's flag. I stalked my way towards the flag. I summoned my sword and got ready for an attack. I saw a girl run through the tree line though she wasn't being chased by the other team. She was getting chased by monsters.
I joined up with her and we instantly got in a back to back stance because not she was being chased but so was I. "who are you?" she asked. "Percy, and you?" "The names Annabeth" she replied dodging a stinger from the tarantula monster.
We made our way to the center of Zeus' fist, there was a hole in between the two main rocks that held up Zeus' fist. When we both where inside the ground started to shake and all of the sudden it fell, and so did we.
