Timi exited the big house shaking nervously with the revelation of her future, that prophecy of queens and lightning bolts determined her future if she failed to find it Lord Zeus would execute her if he was feeling merciful at least.
She scarcely dared to think of the consequences and punishment she would receive should The great Lord Zeus not be feeling merciful that day. She feared quite honestly for the dire consequences of her actions should The Lord of Lightning be lacking in mercy that day. Well, they weren't her actions but she highly doubted Lord Zeus would care if she failed to find the bolt. So Timi went off to her corner of The Hermes Cabin and put down the vast assortment of her weapons before leaving to prepare for capture the flag.
Capture the flag was very different when played with demigods, it required a consortium of weapons and potentially blood, unlike the calmer mortal version where the only thing that could happen to you was scraping your knee. To be fair to mortals though they didn't need to practise fending off deadly hordes of monsters so maybe that was why their children's games were less violent.
As the game started Timi stood in the creek she had been assigned to protect against the red army, she hadn't listened all too much about what was going on, worried as she was about her imminent death at the hands of Lord Zeus. As young Timi shivered at her imminent death and prayed fervently to the very deities whose king wished to see her dead unless she obtained the godly weapon and divine symbol of said king, a weapon that had undoubtedly been stolen by a servant of a fellow god or a being even older and stronger than the mighty gods which now reigned over mankind.
Timi was scared, that was the appropriate reaction when faced with the full might of an angry Lord Zeus. She was terrified of what would happen, and the fact remained that what lay in the west was the underworld, the territory of Lord Hades. As she heard the horn ring to signal the end of the game she walked back to camp not caring who won but falling to her knees by the heart. Timi prays, for what other choice does she have, she prays to Lady Hestia, she prays to Lord Hades, she prays to her patron Lady Artemis, and she prays to Lady Persephone in desperation. Beyond the slight rise of the flames of the heart, not a single response is heard. In a desperate move, she pulls out a knife and makes a shallow cut in her hand before putting it over the fire and letting the blood drip in, "Lord Hades, please transport me to your realm so that I might discuss my task, I will do anything you ask to repay you." in a flash of golden light Timi disappeared from Camp Half-blood.
