Marley Harris: The Beginning of the End

Chapter 8:

I don't own Percy Jackson or any songs I say

Marley's P.O.V

In the morning, Chiron seemed more distracted than usual. At first I didn't really pay any attention to it. But then, Tegan said "I wonder what's up with Chiron"

"Me too, I'll ask Zander after breakfast" I told her

"O.K." she said and went back to eating.

After breakfast, I saw Zander walk off towards the Big House. I ran to catch up to him.

"Hey Marley" he said

"Hey um... do you have any idea what's got Chiron so freaked?" I asked

"He's nervous, we have been thinking for a while now that somebody is trying to rise up against the gods, again" he explained "It happened before maybe ten years ago maybe longer. But, a guy named Percy Jackson, son of Poseidon, stopped the titans from rising to power"

All I could say was "Wow"

"Chiron thinks we need a quest to try and stop it before they have a whole bunch of monsters on they're side. He has a crazy idea that it's supposed to be you or Skylar to lead the quest. How he got this idea I don't know." He said

My eyes probably were as big as saucers because he gave a little laugh. "It's not for sure yet don't get worried"

"Good" I said

"Just be ready in case." He said walking away

I tried to forget that as I went through the day but, it wasn't easy. It was all I could think about I mean what if I have to lead the quest. I can barely lead a team in gym class let alone lead people to they're possible death.

I found Skylar just before dinner.

"Hey Sky" I said as I walked up to her.

"Hey what's wrong you look scared" she said.

"Just something Zander told me" I said

"Tell me!"

"Zander said that Chiron thinks that either you of me have to lead a quest to stop something that is rising to power"

"Wow I think you should lead because I get hyper a lot and it would just be bad" she said all in one breathe

"Zander said it's not for sure yet but to be ready in case and you no I can barely lead a team in gym class"

"True but whatever we need to go to dinner" she said getting up and walking towards the dining pavilion.

Hey guys,
