"Of course you. Who else would have earned the name Zack Attack?" Zack Attack was what my father used to call me. He stopped using the name years ago.
"Um, Tyler let's talk about the next move." I said to get out of this conversation.
"Great, come on." He said and we walked into a private room. "It's gods proof, Hades designed it for Nico. It helps a lot. The gods are way too nosy." He explained.
"Great, so I figure we meet them find out what Hercules had to say and then start the quest. I figure it won't take that long to get back and fight Zeus." I said and I immediately wanted to slap myself. It was too much information, but I figure if the gods can't see this conversation then we're safe.
"Zack, what do you mean fight Zeus?" Tyler asked.
"It's part of the great prophecy." I said.
"Are you going to tell me?" he said.
"I can't, I was told not to tell anyone." I said, wish I could, but I can't betray Apollo like that.
"Didn't you tell Page?" He asked.
"Nope, she knew it. She started to quote it but Apollo yelled at her and told both of us that it can never be spoken." I explained.
"Damn it, so do you think Hercules knows it?"
"It's in there." I said.
"Really, so after Hercules what do we do?"
"Hercules is the last line." I said.
"So all we know." Tyler said stressed, he ran a hand through his hair.
"Pretty much." I sighed.
"This is worst then when my sister set herself on fire." Tyler said calmly, he was still running a hand through his hair.
"What?!" I said in panic. "People can't set themselves on fire!"
"Yeah, it's a power of kids of Hephaestus." Tyler explained.
"Okay," So that was something I needed to remember if we ever made it back. Hephaestus kids may go on fire any time. "So we'll meet the others in the mornings." I said yawning.
"Let's get some sleep." Tyler said.
We walked out of the room. We split the couch, I fell asleep. It had been a long day and I missed my girlfriend. I wished she was here. I dreamt about her. Not like that, it was a serious dream. She was talking to Erin.
"Hey, you okay?" Erin asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine. I'm just a bit tired." Page said sleepily.
"Why don't you sleep?"
"I don't want to."
"Why not?"
"I need to tell you something." Page said in a whisper.
"What?" Erin whispered back.
Page bit her lip, "It might make you hate me."
"Why would I hate you? I barely know you." Erin said.
"Well, it's because, well…" Page drifted off.
"Just say it, it can't be that bad, unless you're like Kronos or a minotaur." She laughed at her joke and snorted.
James moaned and turned over in his sleep.
"Oh shit, I forgot about him." Erin said quietly. "So, back to what you were saying, it can't be that bad."
"It's worse, it's about my mother."
"Your mother, what about her?"
"She's, well, she's medusa." Page spit it out in a whisper.
"Damn, daughter of a monster, I never would've guessed. I can still look in your eyes right?"
"Yeah, except after I have seen something."
"What?"
"I can see things, future, past, present, but after I do my eyes become bright green and if anyone looks into them they can turn to stone."
"Have you ever done that?"
"No, Apollo told me about. I can even do it to myself if I look into a mirror."
"But, I mean, how did you not know that?"
"I don't know, it's been happing a lot lately. I think my mother might know."
"Why don't you ask her?"
"Because I don't know where to find her."
Well, I haven't written in a while. I apologize. I got a bunch of new books I'm reading and then I have practice. Not to add I have to deal with a girl that was my friend that's a bitch now. I hate being a teenage girl.
So do y'all hate me for not updating? Please review. I need someone to tell me they like where I'm going. I'll try to update soon. So do you guys have school problems to or is it just me?
