Hey guys I am back with chapter 11 of Thrown Back In Time.
So far the results for who Percy will end up with are displayed below.
Artemis and Athena: 37
Artemis: 26
Zoe: 21
Thalia: 10
No one: 4
Hestia: 3
So Artemis and Athena are beating everyone so far.
Anyway onto the story.
Percy's POV:
I then entered the room of the oracle.
It was exactly as I remember it.
Old rotting wooden tables that held jars filled with some kind of liquid and various monster heads.
Dented shields that looked like they were dented by clubs and maces, some had arrows in them, and one had a harpoon in it.
I feel bad for that guy.
Looking around I spotted more things like a stuffed hydra head and one of Ladon's claws.
Then I saw it.
The oracle looking as dead as ever.
But I knew better, it was not dead just sleeping I guess.
The oracle looked like a frail, old hippie lady.
As I approached the oracle, her head suddenly snapped up straight.
"Approach seeker and ask."
Wow that was still creepy even now.
"Umm I, Percy Jackson son of Chaos, am asking what is the prophecy to help me find Zeus's glorified sparkler, oops sorry, Master Bolt." I ask saying the last part sarcastically while it thundered outside.
You shall go west, and face the god who has turned,
You shall find what was stolen, and see it safely returned,
You shall be betrayed by one who calls you a friend,
And you shall fail to save what matters most, in the end.
Oh, so it is the same prophecy as before.
I was half expecting the fates to change it.
But oh well.
I was just about to leave when the oracle suddenly stood up and walked to me, roughly grabbing my shoulders, and turning me around.
I then looked into her eyes and froze, then my consciousness was sucked into a vision of sorts.
In the vision it showed me and some vague figure fighting Kronos, but hovering above Kronos was a sort of spirit being like a dark ghost or something like that.
Then the vision began to clear up and before I could see who the vague figure was I pulled out of the vision and then came darkness.
When I woke up I saw my father in front of me.
"Dad, when I looked into the oracles eyes I had a vision of me and a vague figure fight Kronos. But there was also a sort of ghost-like figure above Kronos. Do you have any idea on what or who that could be?" I asked my dad to see if knew anything about that.
"That is really weird do you know what ghost looked like?" My dad asked.
"The vision was really blurry so I did not get a clear look at the ghost." I told my dad.
"Anyway son it is time for you to wake up." My dad told me before I woke up.
I saw that I was in the infirmary.
I got up and made my way back to the big house where I saw Chiron sitting and it looked like he was deep in thought.
When he saw me he got up and started asking what happened and if I was alright.
"Chiron, I am fine the prophecy I guess was a little too much for my little twelve year old body."
"Ah, so you do have the prophecy, would care to recite it."
I nodded my head and prepared myself to say it.
"You shall go west, and face the god who has turned,
You shall find what was stolen, and see it safely returned
You shall be betrayed by one who calls you a friend,
And you shall fail to save what matters most, in the end."
"My, that is a prophecy all right. Anyway as allowed during any quest you are allowed to take two companions."
At this Annabeth decided to show up.
"Chiron, I would like to volunteer to join Percy in his quest." Annabeth asks.
"Very well, Percy would you like to take Annabeth on this quest." Chiron asked me silently pleading me to say yes.
"No." I reply.
"And why not, you need brains during this quest and me as a daughter of Athena will be those brains." Annabeth says with a hint of anger.
"That is exactly why I will not take you, your pride will get me and the other companion killed." I say in a tone that left no conversation.
"Fine, but just you wait, you will regret this." Annabeth says.
And with that she storms off.
"So Percy who will you be taking on this quest." Chiron asked me.
"I would like to take Michael Yew and Charles Beckendorf." I said.
I chose them because we would make a really good team, think about it Michael is a really good archer. He would be able to cover our backs.
Beckendorf is like a mini Hephaestus, he can build just about anything.
And me, an awesome swordsman.
"Well go ask them and see if they accept." Chiron told me.
With that I went off to ask Michael and Beckendorf and if they did accept, we would be leaving in the morning.
I know that it is a bit shorter than what I usually write but it is really late where I live and I am extremely tired.
Anyway remember to vote and review on who you want Percy to end up with.
TheGoldenBlade out.
