Author's Note: I'm debating who I want Aria to pair up with.
I woke up to a woman in my dream saying 'Comfort her when the time comes' I looked around expecting someone to be crying. No one else was awake.
I got up as quietly as I could, grabbed my clothes and headed to the it would wake me up. It did. the water was so cold it nearly froze my face. I thought.
I got out of the shower. Dried off and changed my clothes. Then I headed back to my cabin. Unfortunately Annabeth saw me. "Just what do you think you're doing?" I gulped "I couldn't sleep.. So I went to take a shower. I was planning on coming back and reading." Annabeth looked at me skeptically.. "Uh-huh. Sure."
"Hey, Annabeth?" "Yeah?" "If you could swap parents with anyone, including Artemis and Hestia, Who would you switch to?" "Well..." Annabeth said. Looking as if she was thinking very hard. "Probably...Zeus." "Me too.." I murmured We went over the pro's and con's of each god and goddess.
Until around 7 am sharp then Annabeth and I woke everyone up. "C'mon guys get dressed." Then finally everyone was ready. We all headed down to the dining pavilion. We all sat down at our table. I looked up at Chiron. He looked grim. I wonder what's wrong I thought. Then I looked over to the Poseidon table. I felt a pang in my stomach. Percy's gone! I thought.
Then I looked at Annabeth. She didn't seem to notice..Yet.. "I regret to inform everyone at this camp that Percy Jackson, Has disappeared." Chiron said sadly "We will be sending a search party to look for him." Annabeth's face was the pure definition of shock, sorrow and fear. I told her "It's okay. If anyone could survive in the mortal world it's Percy." She looked at me drying her eyes. "Thank you Aria. I mean it. Thank you."
Chiron excused Annabeth from morning activities. So we all headed to the Archery field because it was Saturday. Quinn and Will Solace from the Apollo cabin, taught us how to shoot a bow correctly. I did pretty well. "Good job, Aria!" Will told me. Then it was free time. I headed to the creek to listen to some music.
I was zoned out until I heard something rustling the leaves. I drew my sword. "Hello?" A figure stepped into the grove it was none other than Nico Di Angelo. "Sorry for scaring you." He muttered. "It's fine. Have you heard the news about Percy? He's missing." "Yeah I know. Hey do me a favor." He said "What?" I asked. "Tell Annabeth he's NOT dead. I can feel it." Nico shifted his weight between his feet.
