Chapter 7: Two in one Quest?
Disclaimer on First Chapter

Athena's POV

"What is he doing?" I thought as Percy hailed a cab. We only have 100 dollars, and I think that wouldn't pay for a trip to San Francisco! But I followed him in the cab anyways.
"The Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco," Percy said as I got in the car.
"You know how much money that would cost?"
"You accept Casino debit cards right?
"Yes but you have to pay upfront first," he snapped.
Percy gave him the Lotus Casino debit card, and the driver swiped it. The infinity symbol came up on the meter.
He had a shocked expression on his face.
"So that guy did tell the truth about that thing 5 years ago," he muttered to himself. (A/N: first adventure remember!)
"San Francisco remember?" Percy said impatiently.
"Yes, and if you get their quickly you can keep the change," I added.

Percy's POV

Athena and Annabeth's personality are way too alike, because just like the first time, Athena said the same exact thing, the only difference? We were going above 100 miles per hour all the way to San Francisco, and we didn't stop for gas once. Which got my ADHD side wondering, do taxi cabs run by money not gas? After like 4 hours we got to San Francisco, while I suffered ackward silence inside the taxi with Athena sometimes staring at me while she was blushing, if I didn't know better about Athena, I would have thought she liked me. Finally we arrived at the Golden Gate Bridge.
"Finaly!" I said as I got out of the taxi cab.
"Hey bub, can I get the rest of the money now?"
"Sure, take the whole thing even the card"
I handed him the card, and thought I heard him say "sucker" under his breath. Heh, if only he knew the card only worked at the Lotus Casino and for taxi cabs. He left speeding back to Sin city.
I turned to face the bridge it was gigantic, then I noticed a crowd of people milling around a spot on the bridge.
"Don't come any closer!" a mans voice ordered, his voice seemed scared, almost close to death.
Athena and I moved are way to the front of the crowd to see a man about 20, 30 years old standing at the edge of the bridge, ready to jump. Hades isn't going to like another person to expand his kingdom...
"I have nothing to lose," he said dreadfully, "so leave me alone!"

"And they will find a man full of dread."

"I see monsters everywhere, they killed my parents, my friends, my wife, and...and my son..."
He must be a half-blood!
"People try to help me, but they don't understand, so you people trying to get me down are not helping me!" he cried.
"Wait stop!" I said.
The man looked at me.
"No..." he said and jumped.
I ran forward, unable to catch him I willed the water to rise up and catch him. A column of water arose carrying the suicidal man to safety. I collapsed in exhaustion. I woke up finding Athena feeding me with Ambrosia and I felt way better. The man who wanted to jump looked at me and said.
"I have only seen someone do that once before, my mother was right, you must be the one."
He helped me up and somehow Athena manipulated the Mist to make everyone think nothing happened.
Athena actually hugged me after I got up, with pure worry and concern in her kind, gentle, beautiful grey eyes.
"Come young half-blood, you have proven to be the one," he said emotionlessly.
"Who are you?" I asked.
"The name is not important, all you need to know is I am the son of a certain minor god that sends her greetings but wishes not to be told her name," he said, "she has asked me to tell you something about yor quest." (A/N: Honestly I couldn't find a good name and find the right minor god I am talking about, so ya for now he has no name unless you guys could like help me find a name by reviewing below entering a name and minor god parent, has to be a girl minor god)
"What is it?" I asked.
"She wishes to tell you that one more day from now a secret prophecy will come true if you haven't saved your friends yet, you have a dead line to meet."
"I see..."
"She also wishes to tell you that the Princess Andromeda has not sunken, the death of your friend, Charlie Beckendorf, was unnecessary. The ship lies at port."
Painful memories went through my head. It was all a fake! Hundreds of demigods died for no reason, Kronos will pay!
"What was the prophecy?" I uttered.
He began to speak.

"One named Perseus will mimic his namesake"

"To save a girl from the remake"

"To end the quest he will fall"

"Until true love answers the call"

"The Goddess of Wisdom will fight her grand uncle"

"To save her rival, the god of tidal"

With that he turned around and walked away.
We were stunned, I have to mimic my namesake? What does that mean?
It was getting late so we found an inn and checked in. It was a little too much for me in one day. I jumped onto my bed and my eyelids began to droop. In a matter of minutes I was asleep.

Me: Ok not really much action but if I did put any action where I didn't plan it, the story would sound sloppy.
Athena: I agree
Percy: But you promised you were going to put more action!
Me: I said near the end! Like the battle with...Oops almost spoiled it.
Percy: And whats up with the prophecies?
Me: Hey I am not good at that!
Percy: No, I mean what does it mean?
Me: Well I guess you have to stick around to find out!
Percy: Fine!
Me: So what do you think? Good, bad? Please review and remember the character contest thing I said in the Author's note. See you guys later!
