Aphrodite was sitting in her throne on Mount Olympus. She was watching something in her mirror - most likely herself - and sqealing like crazy. "Aw, he is so sweet!" the goddess of love said. Then she looked up and straight at me. "Don't you see, Percy? This was all part of my plan. But from here on out, you're on your own. Good luck!

Then the scene changed. Now Rachel was staring at me from her huge room. Oh crap, my dream-self thought. Rachel's the Oracle. This can't be good. Rachel recited the old Great Prophecy, my prophecy:

"A half-blood of the eldest gods,
Shall reach sixteen against all odds,
And see the world in endless sleep,
The hero's sould cursed blade shall reap,
A single choice shall end his days,
Olympus to preserve or raze."

I knew the meaning, but it still freaked me out. Then, the spirit of Delphi began to take over, and Rachel spoke in a rasping voice:

"The one that saved us all,
Is hardly known to have a fall,
He has a brand new task,
The world is who he must ask,
For if he continues to loom,
All that will be left is doom."

Then I woke up. I knew my dream was real, and I had a new quest. But where would I go? Who is the world? Zeus? Gaia? I had no clue. Annabeth would. I got out of bed and headed toward the beach again. To my utter surprise, Annabeth was there. I knew I couldn't just talk to her. She'd punch me or something. But something propelled me toward her. I sat down and stared for what felt like the millionth time at her curly gold locks, and her stormy-gray eyes. She couldn't tell I was there, obviously. I didn't dare try talking to her. I just looked at her and thought. I'd leave tomorrow, I decided. No one would stop me. I got up right then and there, and headed back toward my cabin. I'd go after breakfast.

I packed my stuff and went back to sleep.

The next morning, I scarfed down some breakfast and bolted toward Half-Blood Hill. Just as I was about to cross over the boundaries, I heard people calling my name. I turned and saw Will, Nico, Thalia and Grover rocketing toward me as fast as they could.

"Percy!" Thalia screamed at me. "What on Earth are you doing?!"

I told them about my dream, and my prophecy. As I turned to go, Grover grabbed my shoulder. "Wait, Percy. It didn't say you had to go anywhere."

"Yeah," I said. "I know."

"Then where are you going?" Will asked me.

"I don't know. Just away from here."

"Percy, listen," Grover tried again. "I've heard about this before. If a prophecy doesn't mention a specific place, then you don't go anywhere. You have to stay here."

I looked into his eyes. They were full of pleading, but firm. I looked at everyone else. They looked the same way. I sighed. "I guess you're right. It's just..." I looked down the valley to a particular cabin with an owl on top. "Nevermind. Thanks, you guys."

"No problem," Will told me.

We headed toward the forest for an early practice.


Yeah, so it sucked. At least I got another chapter in. And I know the prophecy sucked. I was thinking off the top of my head, like always. Er, almost always. Okay, I'm tired. If I get a sudden burst of genius before I fall asleep tonight, then I'll try and at least write it down. R&R! Thanks everybody! Peace out! =P
