Chapter 6

Kalliroe's POV

I have only had this nightmare once before and that's when I was three and it has haunted me ever since. Seeing it again didn't exactly make it better. I was on a cliff over the ocean with my sword, which I now knew as Tidal, and there was a storm raging. Then something happened that didn't last time when I was three. There was a shadowy figure at the edge of the cliff. His eye color, at least I think it's a he, was gold. I don't mean hazel gold. I mean gold. The scary thing was that was the only part of him I could clearly see. The figure raised some weird looking weapon and pointed it at me. I felt the cliff tremble and break apart. I tried to run but I couldn't move. The cliff, or former cliff seeing as now it was just a bunch of boulders, fell towards the ocean. The figure was on a boulder that just stayed floating in midair. Meanwhile I was falling towards the ocean. I now knew that the ocean couldn't hurt me but the jagged rocks I was falling towards could. I woke up screaming, "NO!"

I looked around. Percy was still asleep, I was still in my bed, and the fountain was glowing. Everything was…wait…the fountain was glowing?! I walked up to the fountain and to my surprise when I walked up to it a Boy appeared in a rainbow image. The boy had messy, silky black hair, olive skin, and dark piercing eyes. "Hey Percy I just wanted to tell you…" He stopped when he saw me.

"Um…who are you?" He asked suspiciously. Now normally talking to a boy through a rainbow at 3:00 in the morning would have freaked me out, but after that nightmare I just shrugged. "Kalliroe Adrasteia but call me Kal. Now who are you?"

"Nico Di'Angelo, son of Hades."

"Hades? The god of the underworld? Dude that's awesome!"

Nico raised an eyebrow. "Well you'd be the first to think so. People find me…unsettling."

"Just cause Hades is your dad? Well that's unfair." Nico looked at me like I was crazy (seriously why does everyone give me that look?).

"What do you mean?"

"Well Hades didn't ask to be lord of the underworld. It isn't his fault. Besides it's not like he's evil or anything." Nico nodded. "I've always thought that…." He shook his head. "Uh anyway, why are you in Percy's cabin?"

"Well actually it's both our cabin now." Several changes played across Nico's face. First confusion, then disbelief, and finally realization. "So dad wasn't lying…" Nico looked at me with a cold piercing look. I shifted my feet uncomfortably. "Uh so why do you need Percy?" I asked, wanting to change the subject.

"Huh? Oh I wanted to just tell him that I'll be coming to camp soon. I just wanted him to know so that he could tell the others."

"Why not just tell them yourself then?"

"Like I said they find me unsettling. So how come your up?"

"Oh...I…uh..." I thought rapidly trying to figure out what to say. There is now way I am telling him about my nightmare. Then an idea came to me. "Oh well you see I'm from Greece and it's in the afternoon over there right now and I haven't gotten used to the time change." That was actually true. Nico looked at me with his cold look again. "You're from Greece? Great another thing for Zeus to freak out about."

I grinned. "Yup, that's what I do, causing gods to freak out since yesterday!" Nico laughed. "Alright I got to go. Nice meeting you Kal...it's been interesting." He swiped his hand over the image but before it vanished I noticed something behind him in the distance. A pair of eyes. Golden eyes.

I felt my hands shaking. I ran to my bag and started digging through it. Come on it has to be in here… I found it and took out my journal but not just any journal, my first journal. I opened it to the first page and just stared at the drawing. It was a drawing of the nightmare. Something seemed different about it but I couldn't figure out why. Then I saw it. The figure. It was standing exactly where it was in the nightmare. I drew this picture when I was three and I have never drawn that figure before. But there it was. I closed the book and put it back in the bag. I climbed back into bed but I never got back to sleep.

When morning finally came I was still up and I had already gotten dressed. "You're up early" Percy said as he sat up. "Yeah, I'm not completely used to the time change."

"Well try not to fall asleep while sparring today."

"I'll keep that in mind."

"Hey I'm gonna go see Annabeth you want to come?"

"Nah I'm going to see Elizabeth. She's letting me borrow a guitar."

"Cool, so I'll see you at breakfast." He started to leave.

"Wait Percy!"

"What?"

"You're still in your pajamas."

I walked over to the Apollo cabin. It was easy enough to find, the thing looked like it was made out of gold, plus there was several different types of music blaring from inside of it. "Hey there's my favorite cousin!" Elizabeth beamed when she spotted me, which was pretty impressive considering there were at least twenty different things being thrown and shot across the cabin. "Hey Elizabeth!" I yelled at her to be heard over the loud music. I watched in amazement as Elizabeth ran over to me while dodging basketballs, crumpled up papers, and suction cup arrows (I guess they couldn't shoot real arrows inside the cabin). When she got to me she spread out her arms in triumph. "Okay now was that awesome or what?"

"I'll give you a six."

"A six?! That was awesome though!"

"No you haven't seen awesome until you've seen a guy manage to ride a bike down a hill straight into Athens's traffic and dodging every car!"

"YOU DID THAT?!"

"Nope but my friend did. On accident though. It's a long story involving broken brakes and a greased chain and one very clumsy guy."

Elizabeth shook her head. "You are something else you know that?" I grinned. "So I've been told." Elizabeth laughed. "Right," she said as soon as she finished laughing. "You're here for a guitar right?"

"Yep"

"Alrighty then!" She whistled loudly. Everyone in the room stopped. "Alright guys this is Kal, Poseidon's daughter. She would like to borrow a guitar. Does anyone have a spare?" A tall thin kid with blonde hair walked up with an acoustic. "You can keep this one. I had gotten a new one a couple weeks ago so I don't need it anymore." He handed the guitar to me. I smiled. "Thanks a bunch! I owe you one." He shook his head. "Nah it's cool. I'm Will by the way." Elizabeth groaned and shooed him away. "Yes yes thank you blah blah blah now buh bye!" Will sneered at her and left the cabin.

"Are you and your brother fighting?"

Elizabeth looked at me with a confused face. "No why would you think that?"

"Never mind" I adjusted the guitar in my hands. I played a few chords. It sounded awesome. I smiled. At least not everything in this had to be out of this world. I thought about a song I had played at home. Without realizing it I had already started playing it. My fingers where dancing across the string making an upbeat happy Greek tune I had learned when I had just started out playing guitar. Elizabeth picked up a guitar and tried to copy me. She messed up a few times but she eventually got the right tune. I grinned. "Alright try…this!" I started playing a really fast song. Elizabeth tried to keep up with me but kept messing up. I finished the song and the Apollo cabin clapped. Except for Elizabeth who was still trying to play it. "Elizabeth?" She stopped playing and looked around blushing. "Uh….." Luckily I saved her. "Thank you New York!" I yelled before running out with Elizabeth. "Next time stick to your country's music okay?"

"I'll keep the in mind."

I gave Elizabeth a wild grin. We went to my cabin to put up the guitar. "You and Percy got it made you know that?" She stated looking around the cabin. I shrugged. "Yeah well that's only because our dad is a super powerful god of the seas."

"And the Son of Kronos…." She stared off into space with a sad look. I remembered how Percy and Annabeth had gotten quite when I asked why Olympus had to be redesigned. I'm pretty sure I had to deal with whatever Elizabeth was thinking.

"Elizabeth?"

"Yeah?"

"Why does Olympus need redesigning? And why did you look so sad when you said my dad was the son of Kronos?" She sighed. "Alright Kal get comfy this is a long story."

Elizabeth's POV

I told Kal about the second Titan war and how we won, but lost several campers. She kept twisting her hair around her finger. "That's terrible." She finally said.

"Yeah but the good thing is that we won."

She stood up quickly and stamped her foot. "No that's not what I mean! Both sides were terrible, the Titans and the gods! The Titans were terrible for manipulating and killing so many demigods! The gods should have recognized all of their children from the beginning! Super-powerful being or not they are still parents and they should act like it!"

I watched in fascination as Kal ranted about something she has never experienced. "Kal the gods recognized there mistake and now recognize all the children of all the gods." I said trying to calm her. Kal started to say something but she stopped, closed her eyes and took a deep breath, her calming method I guess. "Well at least they're trying now." She mumbled.

Just then James walked in with a big paper bag. "Hey guys!" he beamed. Kal smiled which made me smile. They are so in love. I thought to myself. "What's with the bag?" I asked. James put on, what I like to call, his troublemaking face. "I'm just dropping off some cokes he bought from me." Kal looked at him confused. "Outside drinks aren't allowed, but of someone has enough drachmas they can pay one of us Hermes kids to sneak some in." Kal grinned "I have got to try that!"

"Eh, you'd get caught."

"Yeah right! I bet I could sneak them in easier than you can!"

"Oh yeah? Then tell me…where is your Ipod?"

Kal reached in her pockets and then her back pockets and then her bed. Then she looked at James. He grinned and pulled out Kal's IPod. He started scrolling down the list of her music. Kal was trying to get her IPod but James kept moving around, dodging her. "Who's Despina Vandi?" Kal managed to snatch the IPod from him. She's a Greek singer! I love her songs!" James rolled his eyes. "Okaay so who's The Apollo Project? I saw that one on that." Kal blushed. "Um that's this local band that my friends from my neighborhood put together. They asked me to sing in a couple of their songs so I had to download them."

"You sing?" I asked now interested. I love music with all my heart and I am always looking for bands and singers I haven't heard before. But singers from Greece? Never even thought about it. "Um yeah but I'm not that good."

"Doubt that," James scoffed. "I have never met a girl that couldn't sing." Kal blushed again. It took me awhile but I realized that James was flirting with her. And she didn't even know that. And I thought guys were blind. I heard the conch horn sound for breakfast. Kal smiled. "Bet I can beat you guys to the pavilion!" she challenged. James grinned. "You're on!" We ran out the door and raced to the pavilion.

Kalliroe's POV

I ended up losing the race. It hadn't occurred to me that James's dad was Hermes who known for his speed. Elizabeth was just fast. James was giving me his grin. "Now how much were we betting?"

"Who said we were betting?"

"Um, Kal that would be you." I said a word in Greek that would have gotten me detention back home. James laughed. "Don't worry I'll pass on the drachmas."

"A son of Hermes? Passing up the chance at money?"
"Consider it a gentlemanly gesture madame." He said sarcastically. I laughed. Why was this guy so funny? He smiled and walked over to his table. Elizabeth was looking at me expectantly. "Well?"

"Well what?"

"I never said I would pass up on the drachmas." I groaned and fished out two drachmas and handed them to her. She gave me a winning smile. "Thank you for your patronage!" she joked. She walked to her table. I just shook my head and walked over to my table. Percy was already there. "Hey Kal, got your guitar?"

"Yep! I'm going to irritate the crap out of you with it!" I said cheerfully.

"Uh…you're joking right?"

"Maybe…oh there was some kid in your fountain last night."

"Oh I got an Iris-Message?"

"Sure if that's what it was, anyway he said his name was Nico and he told me to tell you that he'll be coming to camp in a few days." Percy grinned. "Cool, haven't seen Nico since last summer."

"Was he in the Titan war?"

Percy's face dropped. "Who told you about that?"

"Elizabeth."

"So you know everything?"

"Well not everything but I got the general gist of it yeah."

Percy hung his head. "It was horrible…"

"But you guys won!"

"Doesn't matter. We lost friends, some on our side, some on Kronos's."

"Hey if you guys hadn't of won then we wouldn't be sitting here so cheer up okay?" He grinned at me. "Alright then, ready for breakfast?"

"No Percy, I'm only here to admire the table. Of course I want breakfast!"

"Okay this is just my second day having a sister so please don't get annoying just yet."

"I will make no such promise." He looked at me. "What?" I asked.

He just stared for awhile and then grinned. He held up….my IPod. "Got your Ipod." He laughed.

"What? But how did you…" I turned around and saw James running to his table laughing. Mental note: Get even with James. I grabbed my IPod from Percy. We just laughed our heads off after that. I wasn't aware of a pair of golden eyes watching me from a distance.

So how'd you like it? Loved it? Hated it? Well review and tell me! Who is that guy though….hey who that coming…..OH NO IT BETTER NOT BE HIM! Uh…I got to go take care of something until next time waffles and pancakes!
