Ok. *said in deep, weird, scary voice* it is time for a new chapter. Ok. I'm making weird faces right now. And laughing. Someone just dropped salsa on their phone. An were in a van right now. Best day ever. Even though it consists of driving, stopping for food, sleeping, scary sneezes(that's right I said scary sneezes), and pee breaks. Seriously my grandma has the bladder of a squirrel, I got squirrel earrings. Still it's fun.

Disclaimer: I need to start doing this because I'm NOT RICK RIORDAN! Have a nice day.

Rylie Jackson

Oh I just love camp fires. Don't you?

Making s'mores, singing campfire sones, hanging out with your friends, discovering prophecies that may lead to death.

Oh it's all jut so fun. Except the prophecy part. That can be fun if your not a part of the prophecy. Some times. I don't know. One or two prophecies happened over the winter, but I just talked about them. Never experienced it.

And I want a big prophecy. I want to be a part of something like mom and dad did. I want to save the world. Not just one man.

Even just America would be good. But I want to save a lot of things and people.

Saving Hanna's dad was an amazing feeling though. But saving the world would be accelerating.

And I was ready.

I could hear people singing songs already. It started literally five minutes ago. But people were already singing and rocking out to honey I'm good.

I hummed the rhythm of the music.

"Hey Ry." Andrew came up to me.

"Hey Andy." I locked my fingers with his.

"Are you ready for this?"

I pursed my lips and took a deep breath in. I let the breath out and said, "Not really."

"It's ok. We'll be fine. Don't worry."

I just shrugged.

"Hey, look at the bright side, at least we get s'mores." He smiled.

"Yup. Fattening food smashed between two honey like crackers." I smiled. "And I'm gonna get a lot of em'" I patted my tummy. "Future home of digesting s'mores."

"You know what? You can have mine." He patted my shoulder with his free hand.

"Good call. Now I don't have to steal them." I had a history of stealing s'mores. I make them look away from it, some how, and either take a big bite out of it, but I usually bite their finger, or just take it. Simple as that.

We arrived at the camp fire. The fire was burning different colors, showing the different emotions of the people.

People were now singing style by Taylor Swift.

"Ok, Rylie, will you talk to Hanna? Please." Andrew asked. "Your about to go on a new quest with each other. Just talk to her. For me." ,

Andrew was bugging me a bit while we waited for the campfire about talking to her.

"Ok. But I'm not apologizing. She the one that should."

"I don't care as long as you talk to her."

I turned on my heal and went to find Hanna.

I started thinking about our fight. I I guess I did over react a bit. We are best friends. Seriously. We've been friends for as long as I remember. We've fought a lot. This is practically nothing. But she is know for holding a grudge.

I finally found her talking to some people I didn't recognize. Her back to me.

"Hanna." She tuned around to face me. "Can I talk to you for a sec."

She crossed her arms. "What about?" She snapped at me.

"Han, can I just talk to you alone, please."

Hanna rolled her eyes. "Fine." We walked a little bit wear no one was.

"Hanna, I'm sorry." I had to apologize. I always apologized first but I like doing it. It was my job. And plus, once I did she poured her feelings out. It always works. "I over reacted. And I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that."

"I'm sorry too. I don't know what happened but I'm sorry." She put her arms out for a hug. I wrapped my arms around her as she did the same.

"You know I love you, Han." I said.

"I love you too, Ry."

"Come on, Hanna, we have a prophecy to discover." I quickly ran to the campfire.

Hanna giggled and ran after me.

When we got back we went to find Andrew.

"Andrew." We finally found him. Well I did and Hanna followed me.

"Did you talk to her?" He asked.

"Yea. And we made up."

"Let me guess. You apologized first." He pointed to me.

"Yep." I smiled

"And you poured your heart out." He pointed to Hanna.

"Yup." She popped the P.

"Then you hugged and made up."

I put a hand over my heart. "You know us so well."

"It helps when I'm around you two for nine months."

"You get use to it." Hanna said. "Especially with this over hear." She jabbed her thumb at me.

"Oh come on. I'm not that bad." I depended myself.

"Not that bad. Three months ago you started shouting random stuff in lunch. Thank gods we were outside."

"It was for a perfectly good reason."

"And what would that be?" Andrew asked.

"I can't remember. It's not like I had to memorize it for a test or something."

"The Rylie Jackson can't remember something."

"What, I'm not perfect."

Hanna just playfully rolled her eyes. "Your impossible."

"But you still manage to love me." I did a cute smile.

"Yea, we do. It's a full time occupation." Andrew said.

"So," I said changing the subject. "When is this prophecy thing going to happen?"

"You have to be patient."

"Hanna, you know your talking to Rylie right?" Andrew said.

"I thought we were done with the Rylie jokes." I crossed my arms.

"I'm done now." He grabbed my hands. "I love you." He made big puppy dog eyes.

"You are forgiven. And I love you too."

I gave him a peck on the cheek. "But seriously. When is it suppose to happen?"

"I'm guessing when Chiron comes out and everyone has his attention." Hanna looked me right in the eyes.

"When will that happen?" I complained.

"Rylie, go make some s'mores." Andrew interrupted.

"Ok." I went off to go find some marshmallows and a stick.

~time laps to when Chiron comes :) ~

We were all sitting on benches. Chiron was on the stage.

"Welcome, friends. I hope you all had a good year." He started. This is the day everyone comes back from school. It's a big deal. "As many of you know, Mr. D is leaving." Some people cheered. Some people didn't do anything. But most people cheered. (That was also briefly mentioned in the first story. Also sorry the other story was so confusing. I forgot about some stuff in the first chapters. Sorry. just go with it.)

I stopped paying attention after that. I wanted to get to the quest.

And it's finally starting.

Chiron was talking about, something, like I said before I wasn't paying attention, when Rachel, the oracle, had green smoke spouting from her mouth.

Ten kids, each one of a kind.

Some with strength, and some with a mind.

With few to live, and many to die.

And battle the ones who lie.

Ok they will figure the prophecy out in the next chapter. Then some other stuff will happen. Ok that sounded wrong. I meant some other stuff will be going on. Ok anyway I have a ton of ideas going on in my head. I just don't know how it will lead up to it.

Ok time for the new game of name that quote. The rules are, I will name a quote from any book. You must name the people/person who says it and what book it's from. If you don't know the exact book then you can name the series. The point system is, if you get everything right you get five points. If you get just the book series you get one point. If you get just the book or people you get two points. If it consists of two or more people and you get one or more right but one or more wrong you get three points, as long as you get the rest right. Simple right. Even if you guess and get nothing right you will still be mentioned in the next chapter.

Ok I'll start easy. "You drool in your sleep." Good luck. You probably don't need it for this round.
