Hii. Sorry that I havent posted in a while. Pls read the Authors note at the bottom for important news. Thanks. And Pls don't forget to review.
"Stoll's!" Annabeth screamed loud enough to wake the whole camp up. Her siblings sat up and looked at what had happened. She was standing in a pool of maple syrup, in her pj's, with a plastic spider glued to her shirt. Giggles could be heard outside the window, Matthew and another sibling of Annabeth's went out and dragged the two troublesome brothers inside to fix their mess.
The sound of hooves filled the air. I groggily stumbled out of bed and read the note on the table;
Dear Clotho,
I have found two other campers to join us. We are set to depart at noon. I had Percy send Blackjack to pick you up; you will also find a bag with some essentials packed by the door courtesy of Thanatos
-Annabeth
I walk to the door and sure enough there's a small pack filled with clothes and snacks from my apartment. I glance at the clock it reads 11:59. Shit I'm going to be late. I step outside and come face to face with a horse. At first glance I thought he was just a plain horse but on my second glance I saw his wings; black like the night he had the build of a Friesian standing at sixteen hands high he towered over me.
"Hello there, you must be blackjack" I said softly.
"Look lady I may be younger than you but I'm not a baby"
I stare at him "How?... What?..."
"Lady I'm sure you're aware that it's time to go so if you don't mind I'd like to leave so I can get back to my oats" he said. I nod and he kneels as I climb onto his back and we take flight across the camp to the border.
We arrive at the hill where I see four figures standing at the top. I dismount and thank Blackjack he flies off muttering something about oats and appreciation.
"Where are the other two campers?" I ask, glad that I'm not the only one late.
"I sent them to get the driver while we waited for you" Thanatos said.
"Oh. So what's the plan? The seven of us cross the country in the hopes of coming across the thief."
"Pretty much yeah."
"Where to first?"
"Minnesota, that's where we had our last… meeting… , but there may also be a lead in Tennessee. You wanna check it out?"
"Yeah, but how are we going to get there?"
"Chiron is letting us take the camp van 20 miles south to a train that'll take us to Tennessee."
As we drive to the station my mind drifts back to what the oracle said.
*flashback*
I entered the big house attic and a big draft came in. I walked around looking at all the relics from previous quests when a voice spoke.
" I am the spirit of Delphi, speaker of prophecies of Phoebus Apollo, slayer of the mighty Python, Approach seeker, and ask."
I turn to the voice expecting an old lady but to my surprise it is a young girl with bright red hair her eyes glowing green.
"Where do I find the one who stole my yarn, wise one?"
A cloud of fog blew into the attic and shaped itself to form the council of the gods.
" The one you seek is not easily found, He lives in darkness but, not in hell." 'Zeus' said.
"His affection you lost and for it wasn't returned." Came from Aphrodite.
"Beware for this will be your last farewell." Hera foretold. "If he wins he will leave no stone unturned."
The mist bent and showed Thanatos. "His jealousy will be the downfall of us all" He said.
*end of flashback*
