A/N Hey people. Sorry about the cliffhanger. #SorryNotSorry Hope you guys enjoy this chapter. It's short, sweet and funny. I still want a blue cookie. Anyway, here is chapter 6. Enjoy!

We do not own PJO or HoO, that would be Rick Riordan.


Chapter 6

Katie's POV

I woke up in an unfamiliar place I didn't recognize. There was a gag around my mouth, and my hands were tied behind my back.

"Water." I croaked, only then realizing how thirsty I was. No one gave it me, as expected, but it was worth a try.

Memories of the past day drifted into my thoughts. The kiss, Travis holding Sandra at the campfire...

I squeezed my eyes shut, wishing that thought would go away.

I wondered how long it would take everyone to realize I was gone. After all, I was known to disappear by myself for periods of time to be alone.

Travis's POV

I was freaking out. I couldn't find Katie anywhere. And Sandra kept bugging me with all her stupid drama. Let me explain.

So yesterday, Sandra was stalking- I mean, following me all day, trying to ask me out. Then, right before the campfire, she walked up to me, and told me that her hamster, Benedict, had passed away. She looked crushed, so I have her a hug. When I tried to pull away, she wouldn't let go. She finally let go and basically has been stalking- following me ever since. To make things better, Rose walked up to me during the campfire, and slapped me. She didn't say much but she said one word," Katie."

I didn't understand what she meant until I was lying in bed. Katie had seen my hug with Sandra and thought that it meant something more. That's ridiculous! I like Katie, not Sandra. So the following day, I set out to find Katie, but nobody has seen her. The whole Demeter cabin and some other campers are searching for her. I am searching for her as well. I send her mental messages, though I know she will never get them. I say-think things like "I will find you, no matter what." Or "Please come back Katie, I need you." Or the most ridiculous one "I love you Katie, please come back."

Connor thought my whole freaking out thing was crazy.
"Oh, come on." he told me. "She's just a girl. And a Demeter girl at that. It isn't the end of the world, Travis."
Let's just say there was a good reason Connor got a bloody nose after that.(A/n is it bad that I laughed at that part. :D)
Lulu was the only kid who understood about Katie. Though six, she was one of the easiest people to talk to. She was smart, too.

"You know," she told me. "You should go on a quest to find Katie."

That was the best idea I had heard all day, so I walked up to the oracle cave, where Rachel Elizabeth Dare lived, as soon as I could.

"Oh, it's you." she muttered under her breath. I guess she hadn't appreciated the plastic bugs we had put in her water last week. Or the silly putty we put in her bed.

"What do you want, Stoll?" Rachel asked.

"I want to go on a quest to find Katie. Please give me a prophecy."

"I can't just give you a prophecy. I'm not a vending machine. A prophecy only happens when Apollo sends one or something like that. And I haven't gotten any lately. So go aw-" Rachel was cut off by green smoke coming out of her mouth.

"Two will go east to the hidden girl,

To find her they must find a pearl.

The goddess forgotten will rise again

They must find the girl caught in chains

A miserable death, the loved one behold,

And so will go, the girl with the gold."

After Rachel said that, she slumped forward and I caught her before she could high five the floor. I carried, well, dragged, her to her bed and laid her down. After about two minutes, her eyes fluttered open.

"What? How did I get here? Why are you still here? I told you to go away," Rachel yelled.

"You spoke a prophecy, my dear. Travis here brought you to bed. Get some rest, Rachel. You will need it for what's to come," Chiron said from the mouth of the cave.
