ANNABETH POV
When i arrive at the bottom, i arrive at circular room with 4 pillar that has unbelievable mosaic on it, by telling from the structure it shows her own biography.
Jeanne sit in the middle of the room surrounded by a pillar of book, she's look like a queen when she sit there.
"What do you think" she stretch her arm to show it beauty
"It's marvelous, milady" i don't know what to call her, but i took the safe one.
"Just call me Jeanne" She smile with full of warmth "Tell me, when do you find that man"
"Who? Damian?" i retell her my past situation before we got here
"And did he give you a hint that he was Amnesia?" She rest her chin in her hand
"None until now" suddenly something struck on my mind "Where do you know him, it seems that you've met with him before"
"I'll let that question, answered by the guy himself" She take a silver book with metal as the edge of the book. The title engrave with greek
i squint my eyes "Is that-"
"Sibylinne book?yes, i found it when i am on the journey to Rome. Don't tell the Roman about this" she continue my sentence "and this is why i know your quest my wise girl"
She open a certain page and suddenly recite the prophecy that Rachel recite back then.
"So...could you help us to seek our enemies"
"I can but in the same time i can't" Jeanne sigh
"What do you mean?"
"I couldn't go to anywhere with Damian, it'll threaten my vow as Iron Maiden" I think i am imagining stuff but i could see that Jeanne just blush a little
"Please, put aside your feelings" I beg her
She put the Sibylinne book away and give a thought about it "Tell me something, why you desperately doing this mission?"
"I-"
"Don't try to tell me a lie" Suddenly she giving out a creepy vibe
I took a deep breath and exhale it "Someone that important for me has been taken away, and based on the prophecy it'll go unwell if i didn't hurry"
"So, by any chance someone that precious to you is son of Poseidon"
i nod
She stand up and pat my shoulder "Don't want to lose something precious is something i could understand. I lost everything that i hold dear most, my family, my friends, my comrades. I've decide it, i'll help you on your quest."
"But before that ask me anything that you want" she spread her arm and take a sit again
"May i know what exactly is Damian? he didn't look like a demigod to me, but not a monster either"
"I'm sorry. but that question i won't answer it."
"Why do you vow to be a maiden?" I regret it when i ask this
her expression become darken "ah sorry, you don't need to answer if you don't want to"
"No worries" she wave her hand "It was happen when i was child. It was in the hundred year's wars, a soldier suddenly barge in and my parent manage to push me behind the wardrobe. From slightest hole i see that them kill my father and sexually harassed my mother. To a child it gives me a nightmare, it give me a mental scar. form then i vow to myself to be a maiden and stop the war, that i manage to finish it century ago. And my other vow still stand strong until Damian come"
"Why's Damian?"
"Could you not asking some question that will be lead to Damian, you're one smart child. well let's stop this Q&A, let's go upstairs and let everyone know ours decision" she stand up and walk upstairs.
"Where is Damian and Nico?" the library become empty again, i only heard flapping sound
"Ella, where's other?" Jeanne ask Ella
"They said going to outside, Ella don't know anything, but Ella sense bad" Ella inform
Jeanne run to outside and found a shadow leap down from above swinging his two blade towards a group of telekhines.
"Why they are here?" I gasp a horde of Telekhines attacking Nico and Damian.
Nico summoning some undead army, but the one thing that grasp my sight is Damian. He fight literally like a demon, he fight while he was wearing an earphone and closing his eyes.
he swing not in unorthodox way, he is like dancing. Bunch of Telekhines vaporize in matter of seconds
"Beautiful right?" Jeanne said in awe "He called in Rhythm way, the sword following the song rhythm" suddenly a telekhine manage to sneak at us from back unnotice, before i could react Jeanne unsheathe her sword that burst out a cold breeze that i bet will be felt in radius 1 km and stab right at his heart, slowly he become ice sculpture
"Excalibur" i gasp in awe
"You girl done talking?" Damian land beside Jeanne, and Jeanne try to avoid him
"Yeah, she is going to help"
Nico run towards us "then, let's go, i don't how long i could hold these up. And more is coming"
"Where we should go"
"We need go to Washington" Jeanne slice a dozen of telekhines in blink of an eye "But before that i'll be more grateful if we swipe this enemy off"
"Well..work for me" Damian grin like phsycokiller
"I don't know that you're fight maniac" I avoid some telekhines attack
"Neither do i...i just realized it now" He put a new song that says Lil Wayne-I'm going in in his Handphone, and jump to the middle of horde.
All of us stare at each other and shrug and dive towards the horde of telekhines, like there are no tomorrow.
