Okay, I'll be pretty busy these days so there are only gonna be four chapters for quite some time. OH! I also decided that maybe I would, like, dedicate a whole chapter to Percy trying out Singlish and of course, failing miserably. However, before I can let that happen, other stuff have to take place first. ...Anyway, here's the fourth chapter!:D If you read this, do review it! Thanks!

The real scary part of the trip was when I felt this sudden pull from behind which almost made me lose my grip on Nico. I figured invulnerability had nothing to do with saving me from getting stuck in the darkness. I felt like a puny little clump of dust being sucked away by a vacuum cleaner. When I thought I was finally going to die under the wrath of the monster hiding in the dark that I thought I had lost fear of since i had turned 8, Nico's grip on me tightened and I found myself being pulled forward instead.

"Thud."

I fell flat onto the ground along with the other two as we came out from the shadows. For a moment, I was disorientated. The shadowtravel hadn't exactly been all smooth sailing. Luckily, it was night in Singapore so my eyes didn't really need to adjust to much of any light in the new place. Standing up slowly, I wondered fleetingly whether Nico, still on the ground next to me, had fainted. As if to prove me wrong, he got up the moment I thought that. Oh well...

Annabeth, also up, said "so...where exactly are we?"

Nico blinked hard. He looked quite drowsy and was holding onto the wall, which shadow we had come out from, for support. "Singapore?"

"Um, where exactly in Singapore? We're supposed to go somewhere called Northstar, aren't we? I figured that was a place, not a street."

I looked around and saw that we were standing on a pavement that stretched forward and beside us was a bus-stop and the road. There were little cars though, so I guessed it was quite late there.

"Well, about the Northstar thing...When we were shadowtraveling, you might have realised I nearly lost you two to the darkness.(At this point, an image of darthvader from starwars flashed in my mind) I tried to get us to go to any place called Northstar but because that isn't a very specific address and I was already having complications, I only managed to get us to someplace in Singapore. Where exactly? I don't know."

"Let's just walk down the street, maybe there'll be signs telling us where we are." i suggested and then added, "uh...provided you can walk, Nico."

"I can." he assured us and headed down the street. I guess he was getting better at using his powers.

We walked aimlessly around for quite some time before we spotted the subway sign and followed it. Soon, we were at the subway, or MRT, as the Singaporeans seemed to call it. The subway map, sorry, MRT-whatever that stands for- map showed us that we were at Toa Payoh. There was no sign for Northstar.

"Two-ar Pay-oh?" Annabeth muttered to herself. The word reminded me of tuna mayo. It was probably lunchtime back in America now and I realised I was kind of hungry. Foooood...Oh no. I was starting to sound like Grover.

A young couple walked past us at this point and snickered at Annabeth's pronunciation of the word, causing Annabeth to blush. As they walked past us, chatting busily to each other, I realised that although they spoke English like us, the Singaporeans had their own unique accent. They also seemed to add extra words like "lar" and "lor" at the back of their sentences. I had this sudden urge to try speaking like them but from the fiery look in the Daughter of Athena's eyes, I dismissed that thought and threw it into the "fun stuff to do when Annabeth ain't here" part of my mind.

"Great. Now what?" I looked at Nico and Annabeth. Well, actually more at Annabeth because she was the one who usually came up with the ideas.

"Find a cybercafe?" Nico spoke instead.

"No, no, Nico." Annabeth spoke to him like he was a 2 year old. "You can contact your wittle cyber girlfriend later. In the mean time, let's do wumthing more useful to this quest, shall we?"

Nico rolled his eyes and muttered something about children of Athena and how their big heads would have killed the goddess if they had been born the normal way. "Cybercafe. Internet. Google. Easy enough for you to comprehend?"

Apparently, it was enough for Annabeth but not for me.

They saw the big question mark on my face and Annabeth sighed. "Seaweed brain, we've gotta google where Northstar is in Singapore and what exactly it is. We should have done this before we came here but since we haven't, its time to visit a cybercafe."

Strangely, when I replayed this conversation in my mind later, Annabeth said the last two words like "to the batcave".

I'm a bit weird.

Do review! Thanks! Oh and also...Get ready for a prophecy! It'll be coming out soon...I hope.
