Chapter 11:
I woke up to see I was tied up again, but this time, I wasn't in the Aphrodite cabin. I was inside a net that hung on the ceiling and my hands were tied up behind me. I looked around and found out I was in the dining pavilion.
"How's it going, dolphin?" Bobby smirked.
"Let me out of here!"I shouted at him.
I checked my surroundings again and I realized the all of the campers was here.
"As you can see, everyone's present, except for opposing cabins such as, Venus and Minerva cabin."
"Where's Dakota?" I shouted.
'Well don't worry, she's sleeping peacefully at the Neptune cabin, or should I say, Poseidon cabin." he said.
"What do you want?" I asked angrily.
He just laughed.
"Unlike you puny Greek heroes, we know you exist. So, are you a spy from them?" A girl from the Ares cabin or should I say, Mars cabin, said.
"Look, I don't even remember where I came from, and now you're asking me these dumb questions." I said.
Bobby shook his head, "Well, what if we say that we don't believe you really have amnesia."
"Believe whatever you want to, but I don't really know what you're talking about."
Bobby just shrugged and signalled someone behind him, there was a small group of demigods holding some lit torches who headed toward me.
"Let's see how long you can take a burn, Percy Jackson." he said.
"You're actually going to burn me alive?"
Then someone reached over me and covered my mouth with duct tape.
"A little departing gift so Lupa won't hear." Bobby grinned.
The teenagers pointed the torch and flames spread quickly on the net. But it never really reached me.
The whole net burned down and I fell on the floor, with the fire around me and I can't feel a thin except of a little warmth. Even I was shocked, and they were too.
But Bobby got over it quickly. He lunged toward me with his spear. But something deflected it before the spear even touched me.
Before Bobby could strike again, Hazel headed towards me and spoke up.
"Child of water, beware the earth, the giants' revenge the seven shall birth, the boar and owl shall retrieve the key, or the earth's future will never be."
After that, Hazel fainted and some campers helped her get to the infirmary.
"What is going on here?" Lupa asked and everyone flinched, the she-wolf looked at me, and I guess it looked pretty bad because she snarled at Bobby. Reyna ran inside the pavilion, looked at me and glared at Bobby, it's not like every day you see a teenager tied up and gagged in the middle of a fire unharmed.
Reyna whispered to Lupa and she just nodded.
"Percy, place your head in the fire." Reyna ordered.
I mumbled something like 'What?'
Reyna rolled her eyes and walked toward me. She grabbed me by the hair and forced my face into the fire, some even flinched and screamed.
I felt something really hot, and I thought I smelled something burning, Reyna pulled my head upwards, and everyone look shocked that my face didn't even have a single sign that I've been burned.
"Percy, you've bathed in the river Styx, didn't you?" Reyna asked loudly.
The river seemed familiar to me, I don't know why.
