"- Tammy to come." I told Chiron.

Tammy was like a big sister to me while I was in cabin 11. Always happy to make everyone laugh, yet so responsible at the same time. She told me she's been at camp for like, nine years. She should be up for a challenge, and according to the prophecy, there are going to be a lot.

"Very well." Said Chiron. "The quest will begin in two days, eight AM sharp on Tuesday morning. Get some sleep and remember." He looked directly at Natalie. "Pack light. Only bare essentials, not make up."

"Aw, man." Complained Natalie.

"Inform Tammy about the quest. You can discuss it tomorrow, now go to your activities."

We left the big house and got Tammy who was clueless on the whole situation, Natalie still grumbling about the make up, Lacey apparently lost in thought, and me trying to figure this whole thing out. What a team we are. We went to the beach for some reason. I guess it's just a good place to think.

"Hey Anna?"

I looked up to see Percy, the swords instructor standing in front of me, fidgeting with his tee-shirt.

"Oh, hi Percy." I said, giving him a quick smile.

"Anna I just wanted you to have this." He handed me; a dog whistle. "It's a whistle for Mrs.O'Leary, you know, just in case." He looked nervous for some reason.

"Um, why?" Asked Tammy, being the eavesdropper she is.

"I kind of promised Nico's dead sister that I'd keep him safe, but I can't be there, so its up to you." He rubbed his neck awkwardly.

"Riiiiiiight. Okay then, thanks. I guess." I said, staring at the dog whistle in my hand. "We'll try to bring him back in one piece. Bye Percy."

I shoved the whistle in my pocket and turned to the other quest members.

"That was weird. But forget about that we have to figure out this prophecy."

After much complaining, I convinced Natalie to stay with us instead of doing what ever it is Aphrodite kids do.

"Alright, lets hear that prophcey." Said Tammy, uncharacteristically serious.

"Four halfbloods will travel west.

Facing youths rigorous test,

Three with far more soul than than they need,

Warnings of the ghost king, they will not heed.

Saving the two demigods lost,

This will not come without a cost.

Fate of her best friends in her hand,

Child of Winter will take a stand." I read from a slip of paper.

"Okay." Said Lacey. "That was creepy."

"Yeah, who's the Ghost king?" Asked Natalie.

"Well, lets try to figure it out." Tammy grabbed the paper from my hand. "First line is pretty straight forward, we just go west. Second line is puzzling."

"Um, It's a quest for Hebe's daughter. She's the goddess of eternal youth." Natalie twirled some of her orange hair with one finger, thoughtfully.

"Oh, that's good!" I looked at the third line. "This ones obviously referring to us, but I have no idea what the fourth line means."

Everyone agreed to skip that one.

"The two demigods lost, must mean Nico and someone else." Said Lacey, tapping her chin. "And those last two lines scare me. It says my best friends fates depend on me. It really, really scares me." She shuttered.

Nico. How could I have forgotten? Oh, and lets not forget Boreas's spear. And we also have to restore Lamia without getting killed. Joy. This quest will be very fun, very fun indeed. I just hope Nico is okay. After all, he owes me a buck, and I owe him a rescue. If it weren't for him, both me and Tina would still be stuck in that orphanage.

"Alright. Let's meet again tomorrow and talk strategy." I said as they began to leave.

"Sure!" They all said at the same time. It was almost freakish.

As I walked over to archery, one thought kept nagging me. Who took Nico in the first place?


Wow. That's like the most talking in the whole story. Weird. REVIEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
