"We have to do something!"

"No! We don't even know if anythings wrong!"

"Well obviously something is!"

There were shouts from all over the room to be heard. I stayed quiet while my brother, Marcus, grumbled next to me and pushed his black hair out of his eyes. Of course he thought we had to do something, but wouldn't speak up.

"Everyone! Quiet! Shelbie had the dream, I think we should let her decide what we're gonna do!" I yelled exasperatedly.

We were in a council meeting and everything was going awry. We were trying to decide if we should send out groups for a quest or not. It was Shelbie (Aphrodite cabin leader), Ted (Apollo cabin leader), Kat (Hades), Jaquelyn (Hermes), Psyche (Hepheastus), Connor (Hestia... He's a special case), Lindsay (Athena), Rain (Zeus), and Marcus and I for Poseidon. We were both allowed because there's only two of us in our cabin, so what's the point of choosing a leader?

"Go ahead, Shelbie. Tell us what to do. " Kat sneered at her.

"Lay off, Kat." Ted retorted.

I flashed him a smile which he returned. Shelbie was one of my best friends, I'm not going to let someone be rude to her.

Shelbie flipped her long, straight blonde hair behind her and stood up as her bright green eyes looked around.

-Hold up. Before I go any farther, let me tell you Shelbie isn't your stereotypical Aphrodite kid. She actually has a brain in her head and knows how to use it. There's a reason why for this, but we're not to that part in the story yet. -

"Well, in my dream I didn't really talk to anyone. I just saw Hestia fade, and soon after Khione. Now, I heard the other gods talking about this, too. They don't want to help the more minor gods, and they don't think it's going to happen to them. So, they don't want to tell us, but we do need to help them. Maybe we could do some sort of a secret quest?" she said.

I slowly nodded and saw some other people agree.

"Alright, well who's going to go on this 'secret' quest?" Marcus asked curiously.

"We should probably wait for Chiron to join us, then decide. Or we could go get a prophecy. " Linds answered.

"Let's go to the Oracle. That ought to tell us what to do. " Jaquelyn, otherwise known as Jack, added.

Chiron walked in at that exact moment and stood at the head of the table we were gathered around.

"Shelbie, dear, I'm guessing you told them?" he asked.

"Yes, we're deciding what to do now. "

"Ah... And you've decided to get a prophecy?"

We all mumbled our "Yes".

"Well, I believe what we are facing is the next Great Prophecy. So, I brought this. "

Chiron said as he pulled out a rolled piece of paper.

Shelbie unrolled it and read it aloud:

"15 children will have to disband

The date of Olympus rests in their hands

Retrieve the components that are the key

To set the Olympian gods free

And discover the secrets hidden deep

You've been delivered the next Great Prophecy. "
