Okay. Next chapter!

Nickolas stood crouched, eyes wide, looking like a madman(which wasn't hard if you had silver eyes). He had his knife in his hand

and his shaggy shoulder length chocolate brown hair was a mess. I wanted to scream his name. He was in a forest, on the top of hill. Below in the valley, a light was on in a house. A horse

galloped up toward him. Nickolas crouched in a defensive position.

"It's okay," said the horse. I realized it was Chiron. "You're home." Nickolas snarled.

"My home is with Rhea," I was shocked to hear my name. Chiron's eyes widened.

"You are the child of Hera. Rhea is a daughter of Kronos. You do not belong together." Nickolas' hands trembled.

"You don't know how much we've gone through. We have beat the odds. She is my best friend, too bad."

"No," Chiron said calmly. "Rhea is a daughter of Kronos." Nickolas hissed.

"No. She is the daughter of Kronos. I do not know of any others." Chiron sighed, knowing this would be hard. Mr. D appeared, yawning in his white and red stripped pajamas and night

cap. He stared at Nickolas with amusement.

"What is this, Chiron? And why does he have silver eyes?"

Nickolas hissed. "Leave me alone. Rhea has told me all about you!" He stumbled back, his knife in front of him, ready to kill.

Mr. D laughed. "You remind me of stubborn Hera. Perhaps you are the son of Hera? The one traveling with the daughter of Kronos?" His eyes narrowed into slits, as if looking for the

enemy.

"Got a problem, Wine dude?" Nickolas sneered. Mr. D's eyes glowed with hatred. Nickolas laughed and ran out of the camp, before Mr. D could murder him. And to be met with Enchinda.

"Oh no," he murmmered. He ran out of Enchinda's grasp in his freaky speed of light way. He stopped in the middle of a forest, far away. He stared at the full moon.

"Where are you, Rhea?"

I stood in the grass in the middle of nowhere, staring in shock at the fight going in front of me, Nickolas vs. Luke. It was knife vs. sword. I got up and ran toward them, screaming, Stop!

Stop! Nickolas was losing. No, Luke kicked him and shoved him toward a tree. Nickolas got up and started back with the knife I had given him. A peacock came out of nowhere and started

pecking Luke. Luke summoned a snake to bite Nickolas. NO! I screamed. I watched as they both went down.

I stood up, shivering. Then, I had an idea. I looked for coins, nothing. I scowled. I had ten pockets but I didn't have any coins. And to make luck worse, it was raining a perfect mist. I

grabbed my skateboard and scythe, and got on a path. Trees whisked past me, I was going really fast.

So that's what it does. Hera should have been goddess of speed, I tell you! I grinned, despite myself. Suddenly, I stopped, a white car was right in front of me. A jaguar. A woman came

out giggling at me. My mouth dropped. She was gorgeous, choose your favorite eye color, she had it. Hair? She had it. She had braids and a mini skirt in converses and a Death to Artemis

was perfect about her.

"Oh my gods you are so cute!" I backed away.

"Aphrodite," I squeaked.

"A quest for love! Isn't that cute?"

"I don't love him! I mean-" I blushed.

"Don't worry, you know you love him, you know you do!" She pinched my cheeks. "Oh and wait until you see what is in store! Anguish! Indecision! This is such a cute story! Tragedy!" I

backed away even more.

"That's okay. Why don't you try that with the Poseidon kid?" Aphrodite's eyes gleamed.

"Already there! Ohmigosh you guys are so cute together!" I nodded, confused. Suddenly, a silver light shimmered and Artemis appeared. She had her bow slung over her back with

arrows in her hand. She wore one braid with a Death to Aphrodite t-shirt and silvery camaflouge pants. She had dark brown hair and silver eyes. She reminded me of Nickolas a lot.

"Aphrodite! What do you think you are doing? Do not mess with my hunteress!"

I frowned. "What?"

Artemis smiled. "But you know you are true hunteress! Join! No more men in your life! Imagine!" Okay, they were nuts. Shadows appeared around me.

Keep them distracted. Help is coming.

"No!" snapped Aphrodite. "She's perfect for Nickolas! They deserve each other!" I edged toward the shadows while the goddesses argued. I thought Camp Half-Blood and slashed my

scythe.
