I shut my eyes as I was dragged down by the salty water. I couldn't breath and my lungs were burning I started to feel a current drag me deeper into the water, and another pulling me out. Struggling, I forced myself to swim towards the second current. The downwards current grew stronger and I began to lose my ground on the upwards current. Suddenly the downwards current stopped, and I fell into the other current. Out of energy, I blacked out. Upon awakening, I saw Caspian and Percy standing over me. I was lying on the sand, wet, and exhausted. I pushed myself into the upright position.
"What happened?" I asked confused.
"We don't know, nor do we have any idea," Caspian answered.
He held out his hand, and with his support I stood up. Percy, and Caspian were both sopping wet and exhausted.
"We tried to control a current to pull you up, but it wasn't very strong, it was as if the water didn't want us to control it," Percy said, shaking his head.
"The sooner we leave, the better," I replied.
"I'm with you on that one, let's go."
The three of us headed back to our cabins. I opened the door to the Artemis cabin and saw Felicity fast asleep. Sighing, I plopped onto my bed and fell right asleep. I woke up early in the morning, grateful that I didn't have a dream last night. I shook Felicity awake.
"Wake up, we have to leave."
She rolled herself out of bed and shouldered a bag similar to mine. The two of us walked out the door. The others were standing around, gathering last minute supplies, and saying some good byes. I heard a scratching noise coming from our cabin as we left.
"I'll be right back, Felicity," I said, turning back towards the cabin.
I flung the door open and saw a small timber wolf cub with a grey and silver ribbon around its neck.
From mom and Athena,
Sophia, the path you are about to take is a dangerous one. Hera is not going to make this easy for you, especially for Annabeth. Please look out for her and the others. This quest could change everything. The weight of the world may be on Atlas' shoulders, but its fate is on yours. You may find this wolf helpful in your quest. Good luck.
-love you
I gathered the wolf cub into my arms and carried it outside.
"Mom?" Felicity asked, gesturing at the wolf.
"Yeah," I said laughing, "and Athena."
I watched as everyone from the ten gathered by the fire in the middle of the cabins. For a second, I thought I saw Hestia's face in the flames.
Sorry if this is a little short, but I want you guys to name the wolf cub! SO CUTE! Anyway, please write in the reviews what you think I should name it. It's gender hasn't be specified, so you guys get to choose. FOR HOA FANS check out my story Patricia the chosen one. FOR POTTERHEADS check out Harry Potter and the girl of snow.
