[A/N]: Prophecy! In which…er…you'll see :P Inspired by Leminyx.

And thanks for the numerous reviews everyone! I love you all :)

Now…if I could get you guys as enthusiastic in reviewing my other stories as you are to this story, that would be awesome… :D

This is split in two parts, because I was doing one idea when it split off and became random. So I'm splitting this into two chapters.

Enjoy the first part:

Prophecy, Part I

It was a dark and stormy night—

Wait. No. That's the wrong beginning. Okay, okay. Start over.

It was a thunderous, terrifying dark night, and lightning illuminated the heavens as a girl staggered over the boundary of Camp Half-Blood. Her visage, even from far away, was perfect and beautiful, and she was barely out of breath.

No one was there. No one was in sight to help her. She fell to her knees, ducking the swipe the huge monster behind her gave.

"Help!" she called out. "Someone! Anyone!"

But there was no one there, no one in this lonely desolate night who would be wandering out of their cabins, into the storm to help her.

The monster struck again, and she rolled to the side to avoid being hit. However, one of the claws of the beast scraped her hand slightly, and she twisted in pain. "My nail!"

Her despairing cry reached out to the heavens and Zeus was touched to the bottom of his heart. He sighed from where he was sitting on his throne in Olympus, tears streaming down his face.

"Such a tragedy!" he cried out. "She…she broke her nail! What atrocity! How dare the Fates allow this to happen!"

He paused, thinking hard. "I must send someone to save her," he muttered finally, the gears in his head working furiously to think of an ingenious plan worthy of Athena. "I know! I will send Thalia!"

There was a flash of lightning and Zeus landed in the middle of the Hunters' camp. Lady Artemis, needless to say, was not very happy about this.

"Father, what are you doing?"

"I must see my daughter! It is absolutely urgent! It is a matter of life and death!"

"Gods don't die," she pointed out.

"No, not for me! For this half-blood! This is extremely important!"

The goddess shrugged. "Okay…Wait here, father." She disappeared off into the distance, and Zeus slumped back, his heartbeat racing as he thought of the poor, injured half-blood at Camp.

Finally, after what seemed like eternity (and he knew what that felt like), Thalia appeared, yawning. "Hey Dad, what are you doing here? It's three in the morning."

"This is extremely urgent," he said seriously and in a confidential low tone. Thalia leaned forward to hear better, her expression suddenly grave.

"Yes, father?"

"There's a half-blood at Camp, right outside the border, who's severely injured."

The lieutenant blinked. "Uh…Dad…you realize I'm in Montana right now? New York is like…a lot more than halfway across the country…Why didn't you ask one of the campers at Camp?"

Oh. Zeus frowned. He knew he had missed something important. "Very well then," he said importantly. "I shall go ask one of those campers."

"Wait…Dad…how severely is she injured?"

"Very. She's in critical condition."

"Describe the injuries to me."

"She broke her nail."

Silence followed. Zeus found himself being stared at by an extremely bemused Thalia Grace. He glared at her. "What?"

"Is that all?"

"Yes, of course!" he replied indignantly. "The last time I broke a nail, I was hospitalized for a month! It was extremely critical! This is serious! A grave injury!"

"…"

"What!"

"N-Nothing, D-Dad," she spluttered out. "I-I think I n-need to go b-back to sleep. I-I'm really tired…" She turned away, her shoulders shaking.

Zeus shrugged, then reverted back to his immortal form and went off to Camp Half-Blood. His daughter was probably overly shocked and grieved at the gory details of the injury, he decided. She was probably shaking with fear. After all, a broken nail was pretty gruesome.

He shuddered himself. This was getting extremely frightening. The last time he had felt this scared, it was during the first titan war when he was facing Kronos. A broken nail was probably as horrible of an enemy as Kronos was.

He was at the camp now. The girl was still sprawled—no, that was too much of an ugly word. She was too elegant to be sprawled out. She was drifting on the dirt.

No, that wasn't right either. She was…uh…lying on the ground in a graceful way. Yes, that was it. He could see now that she was shivering, and her right hand—

It was so gruesome he had to turn away, shaking. Alas! The cursed broken nail!

She stirred, and lifted her head. "Where am I?"

"You're at Camp Half-Blood," he told her. "I am Zeus, king of the gods." Lightning flashed as he spoke, illuminating his mighty figure.

The girl gaped at him, but at once, she threw a despairing wail. "The pain, the pain!"

"What is it?"

She flung her right arm out, and screamed. "My nail!" Then, she fainted.

Ouch. This could get a bit complicated. Suddenly, Zeus had a brilliant idea. Scooping the girl up, he ran into camp to the Big House.

"Injured camper!" he roared. "Let her in!"

He didn't realize that at three in the morning, no one was there to stop him anyway…even if he wasn't a god.

Chiron clopped out, yawning furiously, then stopping when he saw Zeus. "Lord Z-Zeus! What brings you here!"

"She is grievously injured," Zeus said, thrusting the girl into Chiron's unsuspecting arms. "Please, heal her quickly!"

"What is her injury?"

"She broke her nail!"

No response. Then, "Uh, Zeus, don't worry, she'll be in good care…here, why don't you go back to Olympus? Don't worry, I'll heal her completely. Centaur's honor."

Zeus went back, relieved. It was probably a very good thing he did not hear Chiron mutter under his breath, "and take your medications, please, before you come to Camp the next time."

Chiron sighed, and looked at the unconscious girl. "All that trouble for a broken nail. Really? That must be the strangest thing I've seen in a thousand years…"

He was interrupted by the clash of a something falling against something else. He turned around to see a confused looking Rachel Elizabeth Dare wandering about the place.

"Uh…Rachel? What are you doing?"

She stared at him, and green mist billowed out. Chiron backed away, waiting for the prophecy.

Girl of the broken nail,

Shall set out to send mail

Saving something important to us all…

But beware…do not fall…

She blinked. "What did I just say?"

Chiron waved her off. "Nothing important, really, my dear. Why don't you get Percy, Annabeth, and Nico here tomorrow morning? Thanks."

She nodded, and drifted off somewhere. Chiron turned to the newcomer again, and facepalmed.

"What the Hades was that prophecy? Lamest one I've ever heard."

The girl stirred, and opened her eyes. They were a creepy kaleidoscope of colors which made Chiron extremely dizzy, but he smiled and comforted the girl. "Hello, I am Chiron."

The girl gasped. "Oh! Thank you, my savior! Have you—" She paused, a pained expression coming over her face.

"What is it, my child?"

"My nail! It hasn't been healed!"

She fainted again. Chiron facepalmed again.

And this was the girl who was the subject to a prophecy that sounded kind of important…ish. Chiron considered joining the dark side. One, because they had cookies, and two, because the people in the dark side actually have surviving skills and did not faint at broken nails.

It was only chipped slightly! Gods!

[A/N]: Yeah…see why I had gone off on a tangent? The next chapter will continue this story. Next up, "Prophecy, Part II"

This was so very strange. But I thought it was…amusing…ish. Review please :)

And I'm running out of ideas again. I really need some, por favor. Gratz :D

AND NOW FOR THE AUTHOR'S RANT BECAUSE SHE FEELS LIKE IT. You can skip this.

()-.-() - bad picture of a listening to music face. Eheehee, I'm listnin' ta random music…because I have to sing them in front of my English/History class this week. o.O

And one of the songs is "You Belong With Me" by Taylor Swift. O.O WHO THE HADES IN MY GROUP DECIDED WE HAVE TO SING THIS SONG? BECAUSE I DIDN'T.

Because now…I'm going around humming "she wears short skirts, and I wear t-shirts…" *facepalms* Wow…I never knew I'd be listening to Taylor Swift one day. At least it's not Justin Bieber. *facepalms again*

Hmm…song list currently. Let's see. I get to sing "Just the Way You Are" by Bruno Mars, -the Taylor Swift song-, "OMG" by Usher (Now who came up with that?), "Holding Out for a Hero" (Frou Frou version, cuz it's just so much epicer :P), and finally, "Apologize" by One Republic, which is actually a pretty nice song :)

Of course, I didn't choose these songs. I didn't know they existed until my group sent me this random sheet of paper with all the songs on them, which they chose. And that was yesterday.

*blinks* *sighs* Now I need to write more for NaNoWriMo. I'm at 32K words now! :) Trying to cram 3000 words in today for a final of 35000 words. Maybe, if I'm not so lazy, I write some more and get 3600 words. Yeah…That would be cool :D

END RANT
