Now on with the story!

Chapter 3:

I froze, who did this lady think she was?

"Who are you?" I demand, my eyes narrowing. "How did you even-" I am cut off by her voice echoing in my head.

Your time is limited, child. I understand you do not have a name, yes? As your patron I feel that it is fitting for me to have the honors of naming you.

She paused, unintentionally giving me enough time to interrupt, which I jumped at the chance.

"Wait, I don't even know who you are and now you're claiming to have the rights to-"

She cuts me off again, you know, this gets rather annoying after a while.

Yes you know me. Now, for your name…. Alexis… yes, the meaning will be rather fitting in the future. You will be called Alexis, child, now for you quest.

Quest? Now this is all just nonsense. My brain is telling me to ignore her; common sense tells me that this is most certainly not normal, I mean, the dang woman's voice is echoing in my head for crying out loud. But something inside of me is telling me to listen, that this woman is important. I don't know which side is correct, but I listen to what she has to say anyway.

You will stop at the island; you will pass it in minutes, and retrieve for me an item of great power.

I glare at her, "And whose gonna make me?" I ask, raising a brow despite my brain screaming at me not to back talk her.

Very well, you leave me no choice, remember child, in four days you will return to me with this item.

The hooded woman dissolved, leaving behind a mist that slowly vanished with her. I stand there, breathing heavily, taking in all of the information she told me moments ago. I blink slowly and tell myself that this is important, that this woman is important. I decide that the best thing to do is to tell someone, so I move my stiff muscles and make my way out of the door. As I leave, I see Leo, kneeling in the middle of the deck, the others nowhere to be seen. I open my mouth to speak, but close it again when I take a closer look at him. His face is blank, eyes staring into space, immersed in a daydream. The only part of his body that is moving is his hand, tapping away on his knee. I stare at it, watching his long fingers tap out a repeating pattern. Something awakens in my mind, and I realized its Morse code, I don't know how I know, I just do. The thing that really makes me sad is the message itself, over and over again the words: Love you.

I stand there for minutes on end, not wanting to break whatever train of thought or memory occupying his thoughts. I know I have to though; something about the woman is too powerful to ignore. Walking up to him, I place a hand on his shoulder.

"Leo…" I trail off softly, not wanted to startle him.

His head snaps up, tears in his eyes, his hand has gone motionless. He begins to rise, and I stand back, giving him room to maneuver. I smile at him reassuringly even though I have no idea what is going on.

"Sorry for anything I may have interrupted but, a hooded woman kinda just appeared in my room, sorta threatened me and disappeared in a poof of smoke so…" I trail off humorously.

He looks at me, smiling at my attempted humor, before he processes what I had said and when he has, his smile vanishes and a look of seriousness crosses his face.

"C'mon we need to find Jason and Piper." He tells me, grabbing my wrist and pulling me across the deck. After looking in multiple rooms, we finally find the one where Jason and Piper must've been hiding in this whole time. It looks like they were just talking casually… but who knows with them… nah just kidding it was actually really obvious that they were only talking. Piper is sitting cross legged on a bed, neck hunched over, and drinking some sort of smoothie. Her sleeves are pulled over her hands to shield the coldness of the drink and her hair is falling in her face. Jason is sitting in a chair, tilting backwards on the hind legs. As we walk in, their eyes turn towards us, Jason starts to smile, but as he catches Leo's facial expression and it vanishes.

"What's up?" Piper asks concernedly.

Leo turns towards me, gesturing that I should explain.

"Okay so basically a hooded woman kinda just appeared in my room, sorta threatened me and disappeared in a poof of smoke." I explain to them for a second time.

A look of worry crosses Jason's face,

"Tell us exactly what happened."

After I explain almost word for word our conversation, Jason sighs and runs his hand through his hair.

"Sorry to break it to you, but you just back-talked the queen of the Gods."

He tells me.

"Excuse me?" I say, raising an eyebrow.

"And you told her she had no fashion sense." Leo adds, but he's grinning as if he found the line funny. I did too but at the time, I really thought she was just gonna like slap me or something.

"Well she doesn't." I grumble, getting looks from everyone else. It's true though, that lady really needs to get a new style. You would think being a God and all she would be wearing designer clothes or something. And yes, I have accepted that there are Gods, it's not that hard to believe and I had a weird feeling something like this was happening.

"And she took away my naming rights. Jerk." I mutter, still kinda ticked about that. Don't get me wrong Alexis is a good name but…. She can't just barge in and announce that she had rights over me! Okay, maybe she does, being a God and all, but still.

"So you're not shocked at all that there are Gods out there?" Piper questions me, I shake my head.

"And that we are half God?"... And that you are half God?" Jason adds, yeah it's pretty obvious that I am a demigod now. I shake my head again.

"Nope" I pop the p. "I kinda had a feeling..." I say, unsure of how to explain it.

"Yeah, we did too; we were only brought to camp half-blood last year. Well except Jason… he just forgot everything he knew and…. Well yeah." Leo jumps into the conversation, shrugging. "I mean, it's kinda hard to explain, I guess you had to be there, on our quest."

I look up, eagerly, grinning like a maniac.

"Story time!" I yell, throwing my hands in the air, and receiving odd looks from the rest of them.

"Now you have to tell me everything about your quest. From when you were recruited to camp half-blood. Tell me everything." I say, dragging out the n in everything. I rub my hands together, excitedly, looking at everyone. Jason sighs, face palming, Leo grins at me, beginning to crack up, and Piper sits there sipping her smoothie, smiling at everyone else's reactions.

"Everything?" Jason asks, exasperated.

"Everything." I confirm, this is gonna be a long night.

Just as Jason opens his mouth to explain the beginning of their adventure, the deck begins to shake and you hear the crack of wood snapping. Everybody falls silent, looking around, not knowing what to do; I think it's safe to say nobody was expecting this. The ship begins to sway and rock back and forth, forcing us to grab onto the closest thing to us to stop us from tumbling to the ground. Unfortunately, the closest thing to me that is big enough to hold onto just happens to be Leo's arm. I latch my fingers around his bicep, making him look at me like I had fallen from the sky. Piper jumps up from her position on the bed, eyes wide and suddenly alert, her smoothie falls to the floor. Leo grabs onto the bedpost, dragging me with him, and I don't have the nerve to switch from his arm to the bedpost.

"This must be what Juno was talking about when she said 'You leave me no choice'". I say quietly, looking around at the others' facial expressions.

Leo's eyes widen. "Which means... we're gonna crash… right into the island of her choice."

I groan, Stupid old powerful people with no fashion sense, making me do things… I complain to myself in my head.

I feel the ship rumble as it crashes into a solid piece of land; the impact is softer than I would have expected. I guess Juno or whoever Juno is controlling doesn't want to completely wreck our ship. I would say we could probably still sail in it, it most likely just needed some minor fix-ups. But I think Juno made it pretty clear what she wanted us to do, she would probably just stop us again, if we were to try to leave, that is.

So I guess we're stranded here, for now. On an island. Wonderful.

How did you like it? Now they have to go on a quest :P well, I know it's not that action-y yet but I just needed to get all the explaining and stuff out of the way. Did you make any new predictions? Tell me what you thought! Next chapter might be up a little late because I don't really know what I'm gonna do for it. Anyway, I hope you liked it! Rate and Review :)
