We had a lead on who was responsible for the crimes, but we weren't sure how to find her. We knew very little of our enemy.

"She could be anywhere by now." Piper said. "I never thought I'd say this, but, I wish my dagger showed me more visions."

"She has the ability to teleport just like the gods." I added.

"I must stay here for a while to prevent suspicion. Can you do it without me?" Frank asked.

"I think so." I said. "We'll be in touch."

Me, Percy, Piper, Jason, Hazel and Leo left Camp Jupiter for New York City. It was cold and the snow was heavy, but I had an idea that maybe one of the maiden's victims would lead her back to us.

"Now, how are we going to go about finding the victim we saw three days ago?" Leo asked.

"I think her name was Sandy. And... I have no idea." I answered.

We walked around New York for nearly two hours, but we found nothing. Me and Piper collapsed onto the bench.

"This is hopeless." Hazel stated, who was awake but weary.

"We are getting nowhere." Percy stated.

"What do you mean, nowhere? You got yourselves here." said a familiar voice.

"Coach Hedge!" Jason exclaimed. "Long time, no see!"

The satyr smiled. "What brings you guys here? Where are Frank and Calypso?"

"Long story." I answered. "Listen, we need your help finding a mortal girl named Sandy. Can you help us?"

"You say she's a human. If she were a demigod, she would be easier to find." Gleeson answered. "What does this Sandy girl look like?"

"She was wearing jean shorts and a red hooded jacket paired with blue sneakers." I answered.

"I got a perfect description. She's right over there."

He pointed to his left and found Sandy close a fountain. She had her phone in her pocket. Percy looked at her. "So that's San... Wait a second... She looks familiar, but she can't be Nancy Bobofit."

"Who's Nancy Bobofit?" Coach Hedge asked.

"An old enemy of mine." Percy answered. "Long before I discovered I was a demigod, she was my worst rival, and always picked on me and Grover. Since then, I've encountered much worse foes."

"Patricia! Patricia!" a voice exclaimed.

"That's Nancy Bobofit." Percy answered.

Nancy Bobofit had long red hair in a ponytail, neatly brushed. Her teeth were straighter and she wore a grey headband in her hair. She wore a pair of black boots with a purple dress, black tights and a black fur coat.

"Patricia!" she exclaimed, upon seeing Sandy.

"I'm sorry, but do I know you?" Sandy asked.

"Patricia, don't you remember? It's me, Nancy, your big sister!"

"I don't remember you."

"What?! But... how can this be?"

"She has amnesia." I answered. "She introduced herself to us as Sandy."

"Her name is Patricia Bobofit, and she's my little sister. What happened to her?"

"How do we put this in the best way?" Percy asked. "She lost her memory and someone has used it to her advantage."

"Percy Jackson?" Nancy asked.

"Long time no see." he said. "Nice to see you too."

We looked towards Sandy, or Patricia, then back at Nancy.

"So Sandy... or Patricia... has been missing for how many days?" Piper asked.

"Four days." Nancy answered.

"Four days... That's when the five of us plus Frank, saw her for the first time." Jason remarked.

"You're right." Piper said.

"This does not seem like a mere coincidence..." I said. "She's one of the maiden's victims."

Nancy scratched her head. "Huh?"

"Nancy, your sister's boss is really dangerous. We're on a mission to find her and stop her."

"Oh give it up, foolish heroes." Patricia spoke.

Suddenly her eyes flashed gold. Nancy was suddenly knocked out.

"You'll never find the one you seek." she continued. "The Deceiver of the Gods is far too clever, and far too powerful for you and your pathetic friends to face."

"We will find your boss, one way or another." Percy grabbed her by the collar. "Where is she?"

Patricia chuckled to herself. She answered, "You'll never find her. She's moving constantly. Soon her plans will come to fruition!" She laughed and threw a smoke bomb. We coughed and by the time the smoke vanished, Patricia was gone. Nancy woke up.

"Where's Patricia?" Nancy asked.

"She vanished." Hazel answered.

"I better get going then." Nancy said.

She ran off, continuing to look for her lost sister.

"What did she mean by her plans?" Hazel asked.

"I don't know, but it can't be good." Leo said.

"We better call Frank and tell him what we've learned." I said.

Hazel dialed Frank on her phone for a videochat. He was speaking with his grandmother.

"Are you sure you guys can handle all of this?" she asked.

"Pretty sure." Frank answered. He turned to us. "Oh hi guys. What have you guys learned?"

"We learned that Sandy, the girl we saw right before the Clash of the Century duel, is actually a human girl named Patricia Bobofit, the younger sister of Nancy Bobofit. A few moments ago, she came possessed and told us that we would never find her boss, The Deceiver of the Gods. She also said that she has plans." answered.

"The maiden's plans? What does she mean by that?" Frank asked.

"I don't know, but whatever it is, we have to stop it." I said.

Percy looked baffled. "But what could that possibly be?"

"I'll meet you back at Camp Jupiter." Frank said. He hung up.

"Let's get going." I said, looking at Hazel. She yawned.

"Hazel, are you ok?" Leo asked.

"I'll be fine." she answered.

Coach Hedge looked at her skeptically. "Well, good luck guys. If you ever need assistance, you know who to call." he said.

Once again, Hazel transported us to Camp Jupiter. Afterwards, she collapsed in Frank's arms again. Frank was already there waiting for us.

"Is Nathan locked up?" Percy asked.

"He should be. Gwen's skeletons are guarding him day and night." Frank answered.

"If Nathan escapes, do you think the evil maiden will force him to try and kill Frank again?" I asked.

"Almost certainly. He wants power and is willing to do anything to get it." Jason answered.

Suddenly Michael Kahale appeared. "Ah, Frank and Percy. I was looking for you."

"What's the matter?" Percy asked.

"I have a question for you actually," he said. "Why is Nathan locked up in a cage of bones?"
