Okay, this has been a long wait and I finally got around to do this. But here is the first chapter, it's not that long but here it is anyways, hopefully can get the next chappie up soon.

"Chiron! A boy is at the border with Grover!" I gasped as the the woman dissolved into golden light. He had to be the one. The more logical side of my brain, the left, was scolding myself for thinking that again. But my right was rushing through plans, I was deep in thought, yet before I knew it a sigh let out by the border as the boy passed out. As I looked down, deep sea green eyes looked from under me, closing quickly. He was holding a black and white ragged horn. I couldn't believe it, almost no newbie could do that. He had to be the one, he had to be!
"CHIRON!" Before I could even blink, a white flank was beside me.
"He must be the one, he must be," I said.
"Silence, Annabeth,"Chiron scolded. " He is still conscious. Bring him inside."
I lifted the boy up onto Chiron and carried Grover myself. Before long, Grover started to come around.
"Bla-la-la! I'm such a failure," Grover sniffed. I felt bad for the satyr, he didn't believe in himself.
Grover was sitting on a chair next to Percy. Grover was very self-conscious. Percy had been out for a day. He seemed semi-conscious sometimes. I smirked as I scraped drips with my spoon. It wasn't really surprising really, some kids were out for a week. I had to be careful how much ambrosia I gave him too.
"Of course not Grover, now help me feed him!" Grover sniffed again and spooned some ambrosia into the boy's mouth.
"Percy…his name is Percy," Grover moaned quietly.
"Okay then." All of a sudden, he started to stir and moan. Grover trotted out and muttered something about being awake. Percy opened his eyes that were green. Eyes were usually an indicator of a parent, but I hadn't seen green before. Not any green, sea green. Eyes of the sea. It couldn't be. The son of Pasiphae. This may be disrespectful but I was assuming Zeus.
"What will happen at the winter solstice?" I demanded. Even if he was a newbie he had to know something!
"What?" Percy groaned quietly. I looked around, even Luke thought I interrogated the newbies too much. Someone might hear. But anyways, when we went to Olympus during the winter solstice, the gods have been tense. Something important was stolen, the best I could figure. Luke was touchy and different. But that was expected since…..the last quest Chiron had issued.
"What's going on? What was stolen? We've only got a few weeks!" I knew this was stupid, asking Percy. But I knew that I couldn't give up, I was meant for a quest, and I wasn't too young or inexperienced!
"I'm sorry," Percy's words were slurred and slow, I knew he was going to drop soon. "I don't…" Know. It was a typical answer. I sighed.
Someone knocked on the door. I stuffed Percy's mouth with pudding . I set down the spoon and opened the door. Argus nodded and motioned with his hands. All is eyes were wide open and alert. I left.
It had been a while since I had did regular activities and I just did them normally. I just couldn't think straight. I just thought about that powerful demigod, he must be the one, he must be.
2 days passed. He woke up. I met him.
"You drool in your sleep," I had said to him. Somehow this time…I knew he must be the one.
He is the one.
Oooooooh! I can here Aphrodite giggling from here! Anyways, rate and review! aka R&R! I might get the next chapter up next week, we'll see.
