HEY! Okay I'm just gonna shut up and let u guys read!
Chapter 12
I wake up the next morning exhausted. But that doesn't mean I get to stay in bed all day. We have am meeting in… I look at the clock, 5 minutes! I rush around the cabin and gets dressed then I sprint for the Big House.
Everyone is already there, and quickly I take my seat next to Percy. Everyone from the last meeting is here so I'm assuming the two newbies are still unconscious.
We tell our story, and move on to the next order of business, the new campers. The girl was claimed by Hades apparently, while the boy remains unclaimed. They will stay in the infirmary until they are better then move into their respective cabins.
"Speaking of cabins," announces Chiron. "I think that a new cabin must be built, one for the Child of Olympus." Everyone nods in agreement. "Annabeth, you and Jillian shall design this cabin quickly so construction can start later today. Meeting dismissed."
Everyone leaves, and Annabeth and I head back to her cabin. We sketch for an hour and finally decide on a design. A circular first floor with fourteen windows, one for each Olympic god and goddess plus Hestia and Hades, I couldn't just leave those two out. Around each window is a sort of shrine to each god/goddess. In the center of the room is a huge fountain that I can use to make Iris messages. There are huge glass doors that lead out to a garden. The Demeter kids agreed to help me design it. Next to the doors, inside the cabin is a spiral staircase that leads to my room. Its my bedroom, an office, a living room, a bathroom, a kitchen/dining room, which takes up half the space. The other half is my closet, well closet plus design studio plus drawing room. Its amazing! The third floor is for the other Child of Olympus, and the fourth floor is the armory. Its gigantic, and has every weapon imaginable. It may be a little over the top but its perfect!
We hand over the blueprints to the Hephaestus kids and the construction begins right next to the lake.
It takes two days to build my new cabin, and by the time I've moved in the new girl has finally woken up.
I follow my friends to the infirmary, and there the girls sits, dressed similarly to Nico. You can easily tell they're related.
We go around saying our names, and we find out her name is Arianna. I show her to her cabin and introduce her to her brother.
"My cabin is the one with the Empire State Building on it, if you need anything," I tell her.
"I think I can figure it out for myself," she snaps at me.
"Okay, I'm going now. Bye," I say walking backwards carefully, trying not to set her off anymore.
"Bye." She says literally pushing me out the door. Well, she's nice.
I go to check on the boy. He hasn't moved an inch since he got here, how long ago? A day, two? I don't know but I'm worried.
Even if I only met him days ago I feel terrible watching him lie here, lifeless. His mind is active though, his thoughts are screaming to be heard, trying to tell me something I think, so I give in, I listen.
His thoughts are a jumbled mess, so I sit down. Now I can focus on his thoughts and not trying to stay on my feet. I relax and let all his thoughts wash over me. Slowly they begin to make sense.
"Stop," I scream. Her staff hits me in the temple. The pain is so terrible, I'd cry if I could. My hands are tied above my head, and I hang from the ceiling like a piñata. I'd fight but my arms and legs are bound to my body. She whacks me repeatedly with the force of a blizzard. She is the goddess of ice and snow after all.
His dreams terrify me, they make my life seem regular.
These are not my dreams. These are memories.
What? I'm so terribly confused. Did he just answer my thoughts?
I did.
Okay this is getting creepier by the second. I quickly stand up, and run for the door. This is too much for one person to handle. Right as I step threw the doorway his voice screams at me.
Stop! Don't go!
I look back to him. He still lays perfectly still on the bed, not moving.I can feel his life aura fading.
"Chiron," I scream. I rush to the boy's bedside. He's burning with fever.The centaur races into the room. He rushes to the boy.
"Jillian, go I'll do what I can," he tells shoving me towards the door.
"Chiron, no. I could hear his thoughts. Please let me stay." I beg Chiron.
"Fine, but don't get in my way."I just nod my head, and go stand by the window.
I wait and wait but his thoughts don't come. I look to Chiron and he wears a determined look on his face. This is not going well.
'Lord Apollo, please help him. He doesn't deserve to die this way.' I silently pray. I get his response in my thoughts.
'Child I have given you the powers of healing, use them.' He tells me.
'Lord Apollo, I can't.'
'Just call me Apollo.'
'Apollo, I have no idea what I'm doing.'
'Try.'
I concentrate, and I see the boy, walking down the street towards DOA Recording Studios. He gets closer with every step. I push him backwards, but he freezes in place. I make the street longer and longer, distancing us from DOA. When I can't make the street any longer, I turn a corner and push him in the opposite direction. He falls, but quickly gets up, brushes off his black shorts and walks in the opposite direction of DOA.
Crisis averted, I think. I look to Chiron for conformation, and he smiles.
"That was amazing," he tells me. I turn red and look at my feet. He laughs and walks out of the room.
I look over to the boy, he still laying there. I'm about look away when I see his eyes flutter.
Okay, I know I broke my promise. This was another filler chapter but, you'll live. Remember R&R!
Luv Always
