(Please review, I'm desperate for ideas. Also have mercy on me for my bad prophecy.)
Disclaimer: PJO belongs to Rick Riordan, not me
I slumped down on my bunk, I knew I was going to see the Oracle tonight and she really freaked me out.
Oh well, it's better than sitting here wondering what everyone wasn't telling me, or how many people knew or what I was going to risk my life doing this time.
I thought about whether what I was doing was right, Chiron had told me it was dangerous to know too much about your future.
I don't care I thought if they are keeping something from me that concerns me I have a right to know.
Yes, but still if I hear something that scares me I might be in trouble.
So, it's your life and you- why am I arguing with myself?
Okay, deep breaths, the plan is simple you go eat dinner, you go to your cabin, you sneak out and get to the big house attic, and you figure out what's up, simple enough.
I collected myself best I could and dragged myself to the dining pavilion, this isn't event the worst part of the plan and I'm already reluctant to do so.
I got in the line for food and looked around at this place, wondering if I'd ever see it the same way after I got my prophecy, or what about my friends would I look at them and ever be able to think of them the way I do now?
I noticed I hadn't moved for a moment so people behind me were grumbling and pushing past me.
"Sorry I muttered to the handful of people that were still there.
I got a very small portion of food knowing that with my bad appetite most of it would be going into the huge bronze brazier as an offering to Poseidon asking to make me braver.
I took my food and sat down and stared blankly ahead until I saw everyone heading up to the large fire.
I got up dumped my food, plate and all, into the brazier hoping no one would miss that plate, and left the pavilion without another thought.
I pushed my self to my cabin wishing dinner hadn't gone so fast. I realized, while sitting on my bunk that I wasn't so afraid of the Oracle as I was of hearing something that I'd regret.
"So why am I doing this?" I asked myself aloud. Oh yeah, I thought, because no one will tell me anything.
I stared out my window at the tide, (A/N If Percy's cabin isn't facing the ocean big deal.) when it changed to high tide I decided everyone would be asleep and I'd have to go the talking mummified hippie.
I needed to use every once of will power I had to get myself out of my cabin and into the Big House.
I crept as silently as I could through the hallways until I reached the hatch that I had to pull down to reach the attic.
This was the part that I was afraid of, if I jerked it down there no doubt would be a huge WUMP. But if I slowly pulled the ladder down it would squeak.
I decided squeaking was the way to go. I gently tugged on the handle and failed in hushing at every noise.
I sighed in relief when that was over, but I still needed to get the worst part done with.
When I got in the attic I nearly ran back down the stairs, I don't know if the lack of sunlight pouring in through the window made it scarier, but I wanted to leave.
I approached the Oracle, and a raspy voice in my head said, Ask what you desire to know.
I swallowed hardly and said "What is it that everyone is forbidden to tell me?"
Then I heard the raspy voice in my head speak again,
You'll find that more than one stands tall,
You actions decide what remains what falls.
Will you trust them or will you turn away,
You'll find the love that's here to stay.
The worst to come you'll have to face,
But as you fight love will find its place.
A/N Sorry about the not so good prophecy, it's hard to make those! But thank you to my BFF for helping me write it, if it wasn't for her I wouldn't have anything at all written! Thanks, you know who you are!
