I ran the rest of the way back from the elevator, not even stopping by the vending machine for a sprite. I was definitely IMing Annabeth and Percy about this. Before I'd come, Percy made me promise to give him status updates every Wednesday as soon as classes were over (something about "Wednesday being the most boring day of the week"), and talking to him and Annabeth was never a bad thing. Say whatever you want about the unofficial king and queen of camp half blood, they were god strategists and twice as good when they worked together. I reached our room and knocked (though according to Zoey a more accurate description would be "pounded like I was running from an ax murderer in a bad horror movie and only had twenty seconds until he caught and killed me") on the door. Janine opened the door with a weird look, she probably agreed with Zoey about how I was knocking.

"Did you forget your key?"

"What?" I took that moment to look down at my hand and notice I was holding my wallet, and inside, my key. "Oh, uhm. No. It's right here." I held it up guiltily.

"Then what was the noise for?" Zoey asked from the other room. I walked in and gestured for Angie to follow me into her and Zoey's bedroom. I told them Cora warning, and they agreed that it was time to call in the big guns: Percy and Annabeth. Angie went into the bathroom and Iris messaged them, and the two of us followed her after we tried, and failed, to lock the door to the bedroom.

"So what's the problem?" Percy asked as Zoey and i walked in. Angie was perched on the edge of the tub, and she scooted over to give us a place to sit. It appeared that the two of them were sitting on Percy's bed, her shirt was mis-buttoned and her tights were pooled on the floor, his hair was mussed and he had a suspiciously-placed pillow in his lap. I explained what had happened with Cora in the elevator, and how we thought that Dana might a demigod.

"I can't believe she hasn't been claimed!" Percy said angrily once i'd finished talking. "Stupid Gods and their broken promises," he grumbled, causing Annabeth to elbow him in the stomach and mouth, what looked to be, "Stay on Task." Figures that that would be what Percy cared most about.

"What Seaweed Brain over here means is that it's odd that she never made it to camp. I wonder where she went to school, I'll have to take that up with her Satyr. But I think the most pressing issue is what Cora said to you. We won the war, our enemies are dead, aren't they? Who could her mistress be? They obviously want you for your foresight, your gift of prophecy, but i can't think of a strategic advantage to having you warn us. Sure it would cause panic, but it would also give us time to prepare." Annabeth frowned and Percy started twirling a blonde curl around his finger. "I'm going to tell Chiron, we can call a meeting of the Cabin heads to see what we can do." Zoey stood up and waved her hand through the picture, and the three of us walked back into the bedroom.

Angie puzzled long and hard over the meaning of Cora's words, even after we ended the Iris Message. She was convinced that there were dark, double meanings hidden beneath her warning. I agreed with Annabeth, they seemed like a threat. Plain and simple, but of course I wasn't the daughter of the goddess of wisdom, so she probably was better at this sort of thing than I. The Athena cabin probably did word problems harder than this for fun in their spare time at camp. In fact I know they did. One time I was talking to Ella, one of the older Athena girls, and she just kept mumbling about how long it would take a taxi driver to get from Rome to Russia taking only country roads while traveling at 48mph. Granted, that was a whole other type of word problem.

"I get that you seem valuable, being the oracle and all," Angie reasoned. "But what I don't understand was her telling you to blab her warning all around camp. If they were going to attack, wouldn't they want it to be a secret? Wouldn't that guarantee a higher success rate?"

"Not if they were so sure they would win that they just wanted to intimidate you," somebody called from the doorway. In an almost comical way, Zoey, Angie, and my head turned to look at the door only to find Janine staring at us.

"Judging by your reactions you all thought I was asleep." At that Angie and I turned to glare at Zoey.

"I believe that was your job, Zoey," Angie said calmly. Here's the thing about Angie: she's one of those people that never screamed. When she was calm, you knew you were in the most trouble. I'd only seen her lose it once; when one of the Hermes kids, Ben or Isaiah, I cant remember which, spilled raspberry koolaid all over a blueprint of Annabeth's that she'd been fixing the angle of the roof all summer. Luckily Annabeth had a second copy, but if she hadn't, I don't even want to imagine what Angie would have done.

"You trying keeping somebody asleep when you're focusing on warnings from demon socialites!" Zoey yelled.

"Demon socialites?" Janine and I asked at the same time.

"Oh, be quiet Rachel."

"Look, Janine." Angie began. "You really should go…"

"I'm not leaving until you tell me what's going on. I might be able to help."

"No offense Janine, but I can't imagine a situation in which you'd be helpful right now."

"Gods, Angie, I was just trying to be helpful." She turned back towards the door and made to leave the room.

"Wait!" I shouted as she was about to leave. "You said Gods, not God."

"Your point?"

"Well most people say God, you know, singular. But you didn't. I just want to know why."

"I don't know, it's just something I say. You don't have to give me the fifth."

"You're not leaving without a better explanation," Angie said stonily. Janine sighed loudly.

"Okay, you might find this strange, but the Greek Gods are still alive." The three of us turned and looked at each other. What did Janine know? "When my mom was sixteen she had a daughter with, don't laugh because I promise I'm telling the truth here, Hephaestus." I looked at my friends and they nodded: it was time to tell Janine the truth.

"Look Janine…"

"Don't laugh! Seriously, I promise this is all true!"

"Janine, we believe you. Angie is the daughter of Athena and Zoey of Hypnos. I'm the Oracle of Delphi. Trust me, nobody thinks you're lying."
