DISCLAIMER!
Susan's POV:
I had an arrow notched at a monsters face when all of the sudden, all the humans but us screamed and collapsed, and the monsters turned to dust.
I spotted Megan running around, having a quick chat with Peter, then to Edmund, and then she came to me.
"There is a prophecy, and I believe it is starting." She said, looking horrified.
"Ok, what is it?" I asked.
"The queens and kings shall help the heroes,
Life and death shall interfere,
And four will go on a quest to awaken
The heroes from their slumber.
The youngest queen the most important,
She bears the charms of the hideous fire,
That shall help her along the quest,
And also understand the past,
Now with the charms in her hands,
Who will die, she will choose."
Megan said.
I shivered.
"Creepy." I said. I saw Lucy running towards me.
"Susan, what's going on?" She asked as she threw her arms around me.
"A prophecy." I told her and hugged her back.
Megan sat down next to one of the collapsed girls, and shook her. She made no movement.
"This is starting to remind me of Emily and Derek." She muttered. Then she stood up.
"They all are in a coma." She announced, and then Peter and Edmund came over, looking worried.
"Life and death shall interfere? I've heard being in a coma is somewhere between life and death." Edmund told Megan.
Peter and Edmund glared at me, and I blushed. I had made them listen to a medical lecture
"Megan." A soft voice said, and, right in front of us, Jennifer was appearing.
"Hey, Jen. Anywho, I need 5 people to go on a quest. I'm staying behind to stay with them." Megan said, and I was momentarily shocked, and I asked
"Why?"
"These people are my family. I've already lost too much family to this war. " Megan said, pulling something out of her pocket.
It had a blackened and burnt chain, and two charms hung from it. The first was a skull made of white marble, with two red rubies set as eyes.
The second was a locket, slightly burnt on the outside but otherwise ok.
"Wear this for me. On the quest. Lucy, it will show you past things, and be careful never to wear it into water." Megan said as she handed it to Lucy.
Lucy's eyes went wide and she collapsed.
Lucy's POV:
I was trapped. I struggled to breathe through the smoke, and it stung my eyes to see. But still, if I closed my eyes Clarisse's and Emily's last moments I would see.
They spent their moments dying by flame. Blackening. Burning. Screaming.
"Father!" I screamed, and it hurt so much, I dropped to my knees. I lay like that, curled up, waiting for myself to burn. But I didn't.
I heard tons of things being thrown out of the way, and a cry of pain.I felt myself being lifted up.
"No" The same word repeated so many times. I forced my eyes open and saw Percy, except he was younger.
"Megan? Are you ok, honey?" Annabeth cried when Percy set me on the ground next to her, and kissed her forehead, then ran back into the smoky area.
I lifted my head groggily, and saw the camp burning. Another man ran out of the fire, this one holding a body.
"Who is it, Nico?" The blonde asked.
"Emily and Clarisse's bodies were impossible to get out." Nico responded, lying the body down.
I saw Emily had once had dark brown hair and pretty Hispanic features.
Percy came out, holding a little boy, about 7.
"No." Nico might have whispered, or he might have been exhaling. Percy set the little boy down by the girl, and I noticed, he was still breathing, but barely.
"Megan, Dad. Come here." He whispered. We came closer to the little boy. His eyes were a brilliant blue, and his dark black hair like midnight.
He pressed something into my hand, and when I looked down. I saw it. The necklace. The one Megan had given to me.
He gave a similar necklace to his father, and then his chest stopped moving. Nico went a shade of pure white.
I looked away, my eyes stinging with tears for the dead boy.
Then I saw something more terrible. A long line of bodies, all of them burnt.
The fire and war had destroyed my home. What will it do next?
I screamed, waking up. Susan was looking at me, concerned.
"She's awake!" Susan called, and Peter and Edmund stared at me.
"How did you get singed?" Edmund asked.
The edges of my nightgown were, indeed, singed.
"That is between me and Megan." I said firmly.
"Ok, well what happened?" Peter asked.
"That is between me and Megan." I repeated, just as firm.
"Lucy….." Susan stared, but I cut her off.
"You cannot know!" Megan came up to me, and I excused myself to speak with her.
"Lucy, you just witnessed the fire at Camp Half-Blood from my point of view." She explained.
"It was so scary. How old were you?" I asked.
" I was 6. I was trapped In the Ares cabin, I had been getting my friend out, because I had been with her at the time.
Percy, my father, saved me by moving the heavy boards that blocked my escape with his bare hands." Megan explained.
When we returned to the group, the girl who had warned Percy about the enemies was there.
"I believe only quarter bloods and humans are authorized to stay awake." She said to Peter.
"Then where is Laura? She is quarter blood, after all." Megan asked.
"Don't you know? Laura was outside when the Greek fire bomb went off. She stood too close to where it went off, unknowing. Laura is dead." She said.
"You. Why In the name of Hades do you come back?" Megan screamed at the girl.
"Because." Was her response.
"You betrayed us! You sold me to Atlas, and I barely escaped! Well, there is no escape for you now." Megan hissed, and in a second, she and the girl were fighting too fast for me to see what was going on.
It looked like they were doing some deadly dance involving a dagger and a sword. But the dance stopped short when Megan shoved the girl back, and put the dagger to her throat.
"Any last words?" She asked. The girl asked,
"Would you kill your own sister in cold blood?"
"Yes, if she betrayed me family. If she killed my brother! Now, Bianca Sally Jackson, you will die." Megan growled, and raised the dagger.
Peter grabbed her wrist before she could bring it down.
"No, Megan! This isn't like you. You're not a killer." He said.
"I've killed before, and I can do it again." Megan growled, trying to shake him off.
"It's not in your personality. You would not." Peter said.
"What makes you so sure?" She hissed.
Peter kissed her.
You could literally see her relax a bit. It didn't look like this was their first kiss either.
"Excuse me, but, um, when did this start?" I asked. They separated.
"Late April?" Megan asked.
"Yeah, I think so." Peter responded.
"Late April?" Susan asked.
"Yep." Peter said.
"Now, back to the present." Megan said, and before anyone could react, the dagger was thrown out of her hand while it was coming down.
"You're not going to kill her." Peter said the dagger in his hand.
Bianca threw her arms up and shouted something.
"Oooohhhh, that's bad." Peter said.
Megan screamed, and red spirals ran us her neck, to her face. They were on her arms and legs too. She collapsed, and Peter caught her.
On her forehead, a helm symbol appeared, made by the red.
"No." Peter whispered, his face so tortured that he looked like Nico when Derek died for a second.
"You go, Jennifer. I'm staying." Peter said, his eyes crazy with grief.
"Peter, what's wrong?" I asked.
"She's marked for death." He whispered.
