Hey people reading my amazing story! I am so very sorry for not updating a well very long while. I have been writing on fiction press, and I have been on vacation and many other things. I wish you guys would review, because I dont know where I should go with this story!


Percy

I looked over at Thalia, still wondering where she had been. SHe seemed extrememly happy to see me and Annabeth. That wasn't exactly like her. And she normally wasn't happy. What was this? This wasn't the Thalia I had seen last time.

I pulled her aside from everyone, she looked at me weird. "Same old Percy." She said, shaking her head.

"I need to ask you some quesitons. PLease answer them." I pleaded.

She looked at me, "Okay..?"

"Swear on the RIver Styx?" I asked.

"I swear..." SHe huffed.

"Where were you on this mission or what ever Artemis was talking about?" I quesitoned her.

She gave me a glare, "I can't tell you that."

"But you swore on the River Styx!" I yelled at her.

She looked down at her feet, "Fine. But Percy, you CAN NOT tell a soul."

I nodded solemnly, "Promise."

She looked around," Okay, I was a spy for Artemis. I went undercover to spy on Kronos. It got a little out of hand. So I left."

I touched her face, " Is that how you got those?" I asked.

She nodded, "Percy, I almost got killed. I couldn't do it again." A single tear went down her cheek. Wait. THALIA WAS CRYING?!

"PLease, don't cry. It's okay." I said, giving her a hug, even though I knew I wasn't supposed to.

"I'm sorry, Percy. I have to go." She said, and with that she ran away.

I had to find out what she had meant. I had to find about Grover. About Luke. And I still needed to figure out what my punishment. Not to mention I had to figure out Annabeth. She always seemed strong, but that day in the cave, I saw her cry. IN this last week, I have seen the two strongest girls I know cry. Since when did this happen to me?
