Chapter Four
After the news, Percy went to his cabin and waited for the conch horn to blow, which signaled everybody to come to the dining pavilion to dine, which he didn't have to wait very long for it.
He walked towards the dining pavilion, feeling very grim about the situation. The girl from my dream hasto be the same girl from Annabeth's dream. But that wasn't what was making Percy nervous. It was the fact of her losing her mother and his dream, about her being controlled. And who was doing it? No doubt it was that, one of gold, and the one of fears, whatever that means. Man, does he hate riddles.
He was so absorbed in his thoughts that he didn't notice that Annabeth wasn't there at the dining pavilion until one of Annabeth's siblings started to walk toward him.
"Hey, Percy, do you know where Annabeth is?" asked Mirla Beaker (she was a new camper).
"What? Eh, no I don't know where she is. She told me she was going back to her cabin after we, umm, we finished talking. Why?"
"Because," she hesitated and looked around, seeing if anybody was ease- dropping, "Because, nobody can find her."
All the color drained from Percy's face. "Wh-what? What do you mean, she went straight back to her cabin. There must be a mistake, are-are you sure?"
Mirla shook her head, "Well sort of, yeah she came back to the cabin, but then she got this confused expression and then left. We thought she probably forgot something and went to see you, but then she didn't come back"
Percy started walking off, "I'll ask Chiron if he knows anything. Tell everyone I'll be there soon."
"Okay, thank you." She said walking away while keeping her head down.
Percy walked up to the Big House. He was right at the door ready to knock when he heard a conversation with very serious tones.
"-we can't wait any longer! We should tell the children about the opposing threat against the camp! If we don't do it quickly, the kids won't be able to prepare them-selves for the upcoming threat!" Chiron said sternly.
"The council of the Gods have already decided that we wait before we tell those brats about the threat. We can't have those little rug rats running around screaming their heads off. Besides, the threat isn't affecting us, so why bother worrying; it won't help us at all." Dionysus countered.
"Are you sure about that, because Annabeth was kidnapped from right under our noses this evening, and I don't think that is a friendly greeting."
Percy took in a sharp breath, while his blood turned to ice, what did they mean kidnapped? And what's the threat they are talking about? He needed more info. But before he could he heard shuffling inside.
"Well, we better not keep those brats waiting, should we?"
Percy didn't stay there any longer. He set off towards the dining pavilion with his lost of appetite.
That night he didn't get any sleep, because of the information he over heard. After dinner he told Nico, Jason, and Piper right away. When he finish they looked horrified, yet said nothing except, "We'll contact Frank, Hazel, and Reyna about this, don't worry." But all he could seem to do was worry. Worry of what might happen. Worry about Annabeth's health. Worry of the consequences that might follow.
When the sun came up he got dressed, as a weary feeling came over him.

The young girl looked at the hill. Was the voice wrong? This couldn't be it.
No, she thought, that's just the magic repelling you. You need to stay focused. She looked behind her at the monster.
"You do understand the risk you are making and that you probably won't come back?" she asked the monster out of concern.
Yes, and I would do it a million times for you, mistress master. It responded in a raspy voice in her mind.
She nodded to the answer. Sacrifices need to be made to reach her goal. "Okay. Let's go before the sun is fully upon us."

A piercing scream rang through the silent day. Campers all around came out in there pajamas, weapons and armor. Everyone went towards where the scream came from, which happened to be the hill right outside of camp.
"He-help! Someone, help me!" screamed a girl out of terror. A monster, a Cyclops to be exact, was towering over her, reaching out his hand to grab her.
Jade, a daughter of Hecate, was the first one out on the hill racing to help the young girl. "I'm coming, come on guys help me out." Raising her hand she threw a little ball that exploded when it hit the monster.
Percy was next, uncapping riptide, he started slicing at the Cyclops (despite his love for his brother, who was a Cyclops).
"Go! Go over the hill and go into the camp, people will help you with your injuries there! Now, go!" Percy told the girl.
She nodded and ran up the hill, hesitating at first, but then went over and into the camp, while campers all around came to battle the full grown Cyclops while Will Solace tended to the little girls wounds.
Not long after, the monster exploded into dust. Nobody was injured, except for the little girl, who was now being questioned by campers.
"Give her space." Chiron told the campers. They all took a step back as Chiron took a step forward. "So, what is your name young one?"
-v-
Crud, the young girl thought, I didn't think of that.
"Well?" the centaur pressed on. She tried remembering her name but just couldn't.
Alom Tempust, whispered a voice in her head. It wasn't the voice, the one who convinced her to come here, but a voice, soft and calm and very familiar…
"Go on don't be afraid of my appearance, what's your name?" the centaur asked again.
Now or never, she thought. "It's Alom sir, Alom Tempust."
And CUT! That is the introduction to Alom Tempust,(longest chapter EVER!) I guess it will have to do for now.
And that cliffhanger I left you on, WHAT FREAKING HAPPENED TO ANNABETH! I sorry I did that… but it was necessary for the story line.
REVIEW! And that will be all.
PEACE OUT!
