Okay I'm back with a new chapter! Hope you like this one because it got deleted… like 5… times… on with le chapter 16.

Disclaimer: I do not own the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series because I am not quite that awesome.

Erica's PoV

I woke up in the morning after a good night's sleep in a horrible mood. I conjured up a bowl of cereal and sat under our island's single palm tree.

"Good child. Cereal is good for thinking." I turned around to see a woman in a floral dress and a crown of wheat sitting next to me beneath the palm tree.

"You're Demeter, goddess of agriculture," I said, bowing.

"And you are the demigod daughter of Chaos. I never thought Chaos would ever get hitched to a mortal," Demeter said.

"My mother was a daughter of a daughter of Aphrodite and Eros," I explained.

"That explains it. Anyways, I'm here to help you," Demeter explained. "I hate Erebus because he reminds me my wretched brother Hades. So I will give you some advice. Take this." She handed me a scroll and disappeared. I unrolled it and it read:

"Light is the source of darkness,
As good is the source of evil,
To fight a god of both,
You must kill him from the source."

"What the heck does this mean? It doesn't even rhyme, who wrote this? Apollo?" I shouted. Thanks Demeter, you gave me some bogus prophecy that doesn't even rhyme, I thought. I sighed and went to wake up the others.

Clayton's PoV

"Attention!" I woke up to Erica shouting at everybody.

"Ugh! First I have to get up early to train, and now I have to get up early to live on an island in the middle of the Atlantic?" I complained.

"Get over it soldier, we're not even half way there," Alpha said, conjuring up some crackers for breakfast.

"Well you can make food appear with your mind, I can make water do tricks for money," I muttered quietly. I saw Seth glare at me. Sheesh, you try to threaten your sister one time and your twin demigod brother automatically brands you for life.

"We need to get off of this island. We're not in the West anymore so flying should be safe," Erica said. She walked outside our giant tent and whistled, calling our Pegasi. Alpha got on one and stared at the rest of us.

"Are you coming or not?" He asked.

"You didn't even give us time to brush our teeth!" Michaela shouted.

"I'm sorry, I seem to have forgotten that brushing your teeth is more important than saving the world from a rogue titan," He said sarcastically. I got up and hoped on my Pegasus, Silver. I pulled some spray paint out of my bag - to make him really silver - and aimed the can at Silver's side.

"I will stomp your face in Master," I heard a voice in my head. I freaked out and fell off of Silver. "Relax, it's me, Silver. You can talk to horses you know? Ignoramus," Silver said. I got back on and told him to shut up and fly. We flew according to Alpha's navigation skills, which I didn't really trust. He did get us stuck on that island after all. We kept flying for hours until I saw a large peak in the distance. At the very top I saw purple smoke rising from the mountain and forming oddly dangerous looking shapes. I started into it and saw the world falling into darkness, my father disowning me, losing the pearl Poseidon gave me. Then I understood. The smoke shows you your fears.

"Help! I'm drowning!"

Percy's PoV

I couldn't breathe, and my mind flashed back to that time in Alaska when I almost drowned. I felt my lungs burning and tears leaked from my eyes. All of a sudden, I started shaking and saw everyone looking at me. We were on the ground at the base of a mountain.

"What happened? Where am I?" I asked, my head feeling like it got split with an axe.

"Well, we are at the base of Mt. Everest, and you freaked out and fell off of your Pegasus," Jenny summed up. I nodded and blacked out again.

Jenny's PoV

I had the most medical experience so I helped Percy into the tent. I got him some ice and lay his head against a pillow.

"He'll be alright. Just a bit traumatized," I explained. Alpha nodded and made sure everyone heard. Clayton and Seth were Iris Messaging Annabeth and Chiron, explaining what happened and telling Annabeth that everything was fine as of now. They ended the conversation as I heard a demonic roar. I looked outside the tent and screamed.

Annabeth's PoV

I looked at the spot where the Iris Message had faded, hoping Percy was okay. What if he was hurt badly and couldn't fight? Or maybe he would get amnesia and forget about me! Calm down Annabeth, I told myself. It is fine, Percy is in good hands. I jogged to the Poseidon cabin and watched as my siblings looked over the blueprints and instructed the Hephaestus cabin. I sighed. Things around here were getting boring. Most of the battles were over, and the two sides in this war were licking their wounds and planning their attacks. We currently held Camp Jupiter, but our troops were spread thin. We could easily lose a camp, but at least less of us would die at a time. As much as I hated to admit it, we were losing. We held both camps, yet they still had Olympus. So that was our next move. We had to take over Olympus. I got a migraine and retreated to my cabin. I had been under so much stress lately with battle plans, rebuilding the camps, dealing with lazy campers (Morpheus cabin). I decided to sleep. Luckily, Morpheus granted me a dreamless sleep.

Thalia's PoV

I spit on the statue of my father inside of the Zeus cabin. It disgraced (pun intended) me just to be in here. Thunder rumbled in the distance as I walked out of the building. I saw Chiron running (or is it galloping) towards me.

"Chiron what's wrong?" I asked worriedly.

"The gods. They took away my immortality," he said weakly before falling.

Oh the suspense! Please review, constructive criticism welcome, etc.. ~AssassinOfNeptune
