Instead of writing the answer to the question about Thalia in the reviews, people messaged me and I'm really happy about the results! You'll find out if Thalia comes back later in this chapter!! ;)

Chapter 10
Percy's P.O.V
I woke up and looked over to where Helen was sleeping. She looked like she was in a deep sleep. I better not wake her up then. I quickly changed into old jeans and a camp T-Shirt. I went out side to meet Grover.
Helen's P.O.V
When I went to sleep I had a terrible nightmare! I was standing at the edge of a pit, and I somehow knew it was Tartarus. I looked to my left and saw a tall boy, blond hair, and a scar running from his left eye to the edge of his mouth. He was saying something to me. He was telling me to jump, it was the only way of saving them. Who's them? I didn't see anyone behind me. I heard someone yell "No!" but I just shook my head, looked over to the blond boy then jumped.
I woke up sweating and my bangs stuck to my forehead. Percy was gone, as usual, and it was quiet. I laid back on my bed and thought about my dream. Should I tell someone? No way they'll think I'm crazy! I'll just keep it in mind until something important comes up.
I let out a huge sigh then got up from bed. I stretched and went over to where my clothes were. I picked out black skinny jeans, black Areopostale sandals, and the orange camp T-Shirt. I bet my hair looked a mess. I should go over to the Aphrodite cabin and ask if I could use a mirror, I bet they have tons.
I walked over to their cabin and knocked one their door.
"Who is it?" Someone said in a sing-song voice from behind the door.
"It's, uh, Helen" I answered
The voice behind the door open it. The girl had curly brown hair, perfectly plucked eyebrows, and amazing clothes on. She had a red and black striped dress that went up to her thighs, which made it look like a long shirt, and black tights that went to her ankles. On her feet she wore pink fluffy slippers.
"Oh! Daughter of Poseidon! Come in! I'm Silena" Silena said and shook my hand.
"Hi, um, I was wondering if you had a mirror and a brush I can use?" I said to her.
"I do, but I think you need a hair make over. What do you think girls?!" She yelled to her cabin mates. Weird, their all girls.
"YEAH!" the whole cabin screamed.
"I think you guys just broke my ear drums" I said while rubbing my ears.
"Oh that'll heal. Come on!" And she pulled me inside and I wished I never asked for a mirror and brush.

1 hour later
My head hurt like crazy! They was a lot of pulling, cutting, and spraying. I wish I never agreed to this.
"There! You look perfect!" Silena said and gave me a mirror.
I looked amazing! They straightened my bangs, which made them go right above my eyelids. They also took the knots out and straightened the rest of my hair. My hair went down to the middle of my forearm. They put black eyeliner and mascara, and that made my eyes look a whole lot brighter. I told them not to put any lip-gloss because I like keeping my lips natural. Now I looked like model wearing a camp shirt.
"I love it!" I squealed. (Yes, I actually squealed!)
"Awesome! Now I need to teach you how to put on eyeliner. That's always the hardest" She said.
She showed me how on another girl named Samantha. I think I got it now.
"Okay! Your set to go! Bye!!" Silena said loudly
I left the cabin and felt a little more confidant. Percy walked over to me, stopped, than shook his head.
"Whoa, new look?" He said.
"Yeah the Aphrodite cabin kind of attacked me" I blushed and he started laughing
"Why are you laughing? Does it look bad?" I suddenly felt very awkward.
"No, no. You look great" He smiling
I think I felt my heart skip a beat, the awkwardness left me.
Annabeth's P.O.V
I was going over to the Poseidon's cabin so I can teach Helen how to read Greek, But then I saw her and Percy talking to each other. She looked different. A good type of different. I bet the Aphrodite cabin for the last hour or so. Was she trying to look pretty for Percy? Percy looked mesmerized. Was she prettier than me? I went over there before they could start flirting.
"Hey, Helen. I see Aphrodite kids took care of you" I said giving her a fake smile.
"Yeah, they kind of did" she said while looking at the ground.
"Well lets go to your cabin so you can start Greek reading," I said while pulling her away from Percy.
"I'll see you guys later!" Percy yelled from behind. I didn't answer him.

1 hour later
Helen's P.O.V
Greek was really hard. Even though my eyes were made for it, it was still hard to remember it. I think Annabeth was getting mad because I wasn't getting it. Then Grover rushed in.
"Annabeth! Annabeth! She-back-trip-THALIA!" He stuttered
"WHAT?! THALIA'S BACK! OHMYGODS!" Annabeth yelled and ran out the room.
Who's Thalia? I guess I better go see. I went outside the cabin and saw a girl with short black hair and freckles across her nose. She looked like she ran marathons everyday. She wore clothes that were gothic and punkish like, a black shirt, dark ripped jeans, and a leather jacket with pins of bands like Green Day, All time Low, and Nine inch Nails. I knew that was Thalia. She was hugging Percy and Annabeth was running towards her.
Percy signaled to me to come over I did.
"Thalia, this is Helen. She's my, uh, new half-sister. And Helen this is Thalia, daughter of Zeus." Percy explained.
"Uh, hi" I said to her and shook her hand.
"Hi" She said back.
"Oh, Thalia I need to talk to you! It's really important!" Annabeth said and pulled Thalia away from us.
"So, is Thalia your long-lost girlfriend?" I whispered to Percy.
His eyes got wide,
"No! She's my best friend." Then he said more quietly." She died a few years ago saving Annabeth, Grover, and…Luke, ahem, and her dad, Zeus, felt sorry for her so he turned her into that Pine tree." He pointed to a tree on a hill." But, a golden fleece Annabeth, Grover and I, got that was supposed to heal that tree from poison worked too well and, uh, Thalia just appeared there."
"Wow, that is so cool!" I practically screamed
"Not really, its been about 5 or 6 years since that accident. She was aging really slowly as a tree, so we don't know what age she is…"He explained. "And there's this whole prophecy for when I'm sixteen…" He looked really said
Percy's P.O.V
Helen asks a lot of questions. I wouldn't blame her though.
"What is the prophecy about?" She asked and I explained to her everything I new about it.

Annabeth's P.O.V
"And I realized I love him when I got really jealous when Helen got here." I said to Thalia.
"I knew you guys were meant to be together." She it said like everyone knew already.
"Ugh! Your not helping! What am I supposed to do about her?"
"Get Percy to like you first."
I thought for a moment.
"Brilliant Thalia!"
And I gave her a big bear hug.
"What would I do if you weren't here!"
"You would die" She said grinning evilly and I threw a pillow at her.
"Oh I forgot to ask you! How did your trip searching for your mother go?" I asked quietly
"Oh, I ,uh, found out she um…died…from a car crash…" She said almost inaudible.
"Oh Thalia!" I said sadly and gave her a big hug.
She started crying and I comforted her until she stopped.
"You're a good friend Annabeth," She said and hugged me again.
"Don't worry Thalia, it'll be okay."
"We weren't that close anyways…" She sounded really sad and started crying again..
Percy's P.O.V
When I finished explaining everything to Helen I asked her to wait for me in the Arena for more fighting lessons. I was passing by he Zeus cabin and saw through the window that Thalia was crying and Annabeth was hugging her. Oh gods! O forgot she went to search for her mother! I guess it went bad since she's was crying. I better go help Annabeth comfort her. But, this is probably a 'Only Girls' moment so I better not interrupt.
I turned back and headed for the arena.
