AN: Okay, the rating is better now, I have no idea what was happening that time. I still need character suggestion names, if you have any suggestions, please review and let me know.

SirRoscoe: I wasn't quite sure what else to put in that chapter, I wanted to do the part where they meet up in Sadie's POV, but if I come up with something else to add, I definitely will. Thanks for the suggestion!

Astar88: Last time I checked, I'm not. Thank you so much!

Sadie's POV:

It took some time to harness the boat to Freak, but eventually we were on our way. Carter and I summoned our supplies from the Duat, just in case.

Soon, we arrived at a strawberry field. The sun was starting to set, so I searched through my bag for some torches. Flashlights, torches, whatever.

We left Freak with some frozen turkeys, and approached the field.

"Are you sure this is the right place? All I see is a strawberry field and a tree."

"I think so."

For a second the field's appearance flickered. It looked like some sort of, I don't even know. A summer camp? I remembered what Annabeth had told me about the mist and Camp Half-Blood.

"We're in the right place." I told Carter.

We waited for about half an hour.

"What are we supposed to do? I'm starting to think this was a trap." Carter sat down in the grass.

I joined him, and I could swear I heard singing. Finally, something happened.

Annabeth, and a black haired boy with green eyes approached us. The boy did a double take. "Annabeth, you said they wouldn't be here so soon."

"I thought they wouldn't. How long have you been here?"

"About forty-seven minutes." Carter answered. Only my brother would keep track of how long we were waiting.

"How did you get here so fast?" The black haired boy asked. I assumed he was Annabeth's boyfriend, Percy?

"Quick trip through the Duat."

The boy studied me. "I like your hair."

Annabeth whacked his arm. "Percy's obsessed with the color blue."

I glanced at the highlights in my hair. I almost forgot they were there.

"Anyways, why are we here?" Carter demanded.

Annabeth explained about the prophecy and monsters.

"Seropards." Carter murmured.

"So the creatures are egyptian?" Percy asked.

"Yeah." I confirmed. "We've also seen some weird things. I fought something with mismatched legs that acted like bloody vampires." And no, I did not mean that as a pun, thank you very much.

"Empousa." Annabeth winced.

"Wait- you fought monsters? When? I didn't know that!" Carter exclaimed.

"I have been out of Brooklyn House before, brother dear."

"Annabeth! Percy! Chiron's calling a meeting to discuss the prophecy." A big ugly girl appeared behind them. She caught sight of us, and raised some sort of sword. "Are these enemies? Should I kill them?" Her voice was filled with excitement, as if she enjoyed fights.

"No, Clarisse. Tell Chiron we'll be right there. Also let him know we're bringing guests."

The girl, Clarisse, ran back into the camp. Annabeth turned to us.

"C'mon in. You should be able to pass through the boundary safely."

Annabeth and Percy led us through the camp, and every sight was incredible.

"Is that a dragon?" Carter asked in awe.

"That's Peleus, he guards Thalia's tree and keeps out intruders. There's a decent chance he won't kill you." Annabeth explained.

"Brilliant. I love getting killed by dragons." I muttered.

"Why's it called Thalia's tree?"

Even in the dark, Annabeth's expression was grim. I could tell it was related to some bad memories. "My friend Thalia died here, but her father took pity on her. She was that tree for a while, but the golden fleece brought her back to life."

We continued through the camp, I was in complete awe, there was a huge rock climbing wall with- was that lava? A group of buildings made a greek omega sign, each one different in its own way, there were even pegasi that eyed Carter and I reproachfully, but Percy's presence seemed to calm them down.

Finally, we arrived at a large farm house. By now, we had attracted the attention of almost every orange shirted camper in sight.

Percy gestured at the door. "Well, are you going to go in, or not?"

Was I sure this wasn't a trap? Annabeth and Percy's story seemed legit, but you never knew what could happen. I looked at Carter who in turn was glancing at me. I took his hand, and we walked in.
