Chapter 3:

It hurt to move. She wanted to get up and do something anything. She wanted to walk or to run or to lift her arm but she was totally and completely paralyzed. She felt different now. She could hear things that didn't make noises and could see things that weren't there. She felt things you couldn't touch and smelled odorless things. She saw feelings and heard thoughts. Fear and anger were like a hazy fog that clouded her path. Her path, she didn't know where it went or how long it was but she hoped it crossed Percy's. Every so often Annabeth would get glimpses of things that were to happen. Like yesterday she knew Piper was going to trip on a loose board on the other side of the ship. And when Leo walked into a wall this morning, she had seen that too. Earlier Jason had walked past the door to her room and she had heard his thoughts. He was worrying about Piper and some girl named Reyna. It didn't fit though. Why was she getting these powers now? Maybe it was for the task ahead. The Next Great Prophecy that she was sure she was a part of. Maybe it was to find Percy. But right now it was for nothing… her powers and gifts would be wasted if she couldn't even get up. So she tried with all her might to stand. For Mom, for Dad, for Malcolm, for Piper, for Jason, for Bonehead Leo and, she mentally encouraged herself, for Percy! Finally, she sat up and gingerly put her feet on the ground. So far so good, she thought. She leaned forward and put all her weight on her feet and stood. At first it took all her strength to stay upright and balanced. Then as she put one foot forward she became nauseous but held it in. Pain overwhelmed her again but she pushed it aside because she was Annabeth Chase and pain wasn't going to even come near to stopping her from seeing Percy. She reached the hallway and took the stairs up to the deck. Annabeth stumbled over to the railing and leaned against it for support. She looked out at the familiar landscape of California and took in the fresh air. She felt Piper's presence behind her. "Piper, you ask a lot of questions," Annabeth said acknowledging Piper.

"What? I-I didn't even say anything," Piper said shocked.

"Your thoughts tell a different story, Piper." Annabeth said in her matter-of-fact tone that she used when she knew she was right (which was a lot). "You're worried about Jason and whether or not he has a Roman girlfriend. I wouldn't be surprised if he did but then again I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't have one and you're just overreacting." Piper looked like Annabeth had just punched her in the face.

"Yeah… you're right but… I was going to ask you what you were doing here and…" But Piper didn't really have to finish because Annabeth already knew what she was going to ask. Piper was dumbfounded. What was up with Annabeth?

"Honestly, I'm not really sure. I just woke up and I could read people's thoughts and see into the near future." Annabeth said still not moving to even look at Piper. "By the way, in five minutes Leo's going to fall down the stairs and tell us we'll be arriving at Camp Jupiter soon." Piper looked over at the stairs then at Annabeth then at the stairs. "I'd warn him that the stairs were slippery because of the glass of water Jason's going to spill," she paused, "now. But I think it'll be hilarious." Piper heard Jason say he was going to go get a mop and then heard Leo stomping over to the stairs. As if on cue Annabeth turned around. "Leo!"

"Huh?" He managed to say before slipping on the water and crashed down the stairs. Annabeth and Piper doubled over laughing as Leo got up and dusted himself off. "Hey you guys, we'll be there in…" He was cut off.

"'About thirty minutes, by the way I fixed that board you fell on yesterday, Piper.'" Annabeth finished for him as his eyes went wide in shock.

"How did you…?" He said scratching his head.

Annabeth shrugged, "I don't really know. I woke up from my coma like this."

"Alright, well we'll be arriving shortly, so keep the weird mind-reading crap to a minimum." Leo joked. But Annabeth nodded her head anyway and turned her attention back to the California landscape, once again thinking about Percy. Would he remember her? And even if he remembered her would she still be his Wise Girl and would he still be her Seaweed Brain?
