A/N: Hey here's another chapter for you.
Disclaimer: I don't own PJO or Sylar. I do own the plot.
Chapter 3
Percy's POV
We landed in Manhattan at noon.
"Alright, everybody off!" Arianna commanded.
"Where are we going?" Nico asked.
"Morganna's," Sylar replied.
'Of course,' I thought. We all remembered Morganna the six year old immortal thief. Morganna runs a place called the Thieves' Outlet, which is a place where people in need can get supplies.
We briskly walked down the alley that led to the Thieves' Outlet. Sylar again motioned for us to be silent as he approached the hidden door.
"Who goes there?" A voice I now recognized as Morganna's asked.
"Sy, Ari and friends," Sylar replied.
"Enter," The door swung open to admit us.
"Hello Morganna," Arianna greeted.
"I didn't think I'd be seeing you again so quickly." Morganna said.
"Well it was easier to get out of camp than we thought." Sylar replied.
"Good. Now what is it that you need?" Morganna asked.
"Transportation that's good for long distance travel,"
"That's it? I guess I'll contact Arte and start a portal." Morganna walked into another room.
"What does she mean by 'portal?" I asked nervously.
"Exactly what I said," Morganna had returned carrying a vial full of a silvery liquid.
"I'm so not drinking that." Nico said, disgusted.
"This potion isn't made for drinking boy. It's for portal casting." Morganna said coldly.
She proceeded to pick a small silver wand like object up from a small table. She dipped the wand into the liquid and began to draw runes on the floor while she chanted in a language older than Ancient Greek. I recognized the language as the language of magic the Circe had spoken while she was weaving. The runes looked like a combination of Ancient Greek, Egyptian Hieroglyphs, and a different written language that I couldn't identify.
"Doolbu oyevig lliw iand eriseds traeh rouereh wsuekat" Morganna completed the ritual and a silver vortex began to form.
She pulled a silver knife from her pocket and slashed her palm, which allowed her blood to flow into the growing vortex of silver, which turned the vortex a pale blue.
"Okay, it's ready for use." Sylar and Arianna stepped into the portal holding hands. They disappeared in a flash of blue light.
"You two next," Morganna ordered.
Thalia and Nico grasped hands—just as Sylar and Arianna had done and stepped into the blue light.
"Don't go into the light Luke." I said. Thalia glared at me as she vanished into thin air.
"Okay you two, grasp hands and step into the light." I had been too absorbed in my thoughts to realize that Morganna had said this to Thalia and Nico as well.
"C'mon Seaweed Brain," Annabeth held out her hand for me to take.
I took it and together we stepped into the portal.
A/N: See if you can figure out what Morganna's spell was. Please review.
