Chapter 6

"Oh, the ship is coming along fine, I just need to finish up the last details." I took a sturdy breath. "What did the god's say in you dream again?" I questioned Percy. The rec room was silent, and I felt a little uncomfortable as me and Percy played a tennis match of words.

"They said 'The ship shall take you to Sparta, where you will meet your first challenge. Onward then to the temple of Delphi. You must destroy him there, or he will tear up the rest of the world', or something like that. So my questions still are, who is going for sure, and who are we facing?" Chiron looked down. Percy glared at him.

"Chiron, you know something," Percy pestered. "You need to tell us who we are dealing with."

"I don't want to scare you. This mission is already dangerous. Thirteen is a bad number. It means rebellion. This is already not good," Chiron muttered.

"Too late. It has to be worse than Ga…" His voice faltered. A look of pure rage danced in his eyes. "Oh no. No no no no no. NO." He yelled in frustration. He threw a chair in the air and stormed out of the room. It landed with a thud in the center of the room. Annabeth looked like she was about to crumble in the spot.

"Oh gods" she kept muttering. At first I had no idea what they were getting so worked up about. Then I realized, who was more powerful than Gaea herself? Tartarus. The voice spoke in the back of my mind. Jason and Piper and all the others seemed to recognize it at the same time I did. We all looked at each other than at Chiron, as if hoping he would tell us otherwise. He looked at us and simply nodded. I could have sworn a tear was in his eye.

I glanced at Reyna. Her jaw was set, but I could tell there was worry in her eyes. I at Skylar and Noah. Skylar seemed about to pass out. Noah was looking at the floor. Everything was quiet. Eerily quiet. But I guess talking about Tartarus was a conversation stopper. I was about to make a smart comment, but then the son of Hades plopped butt first in front of my face.
