Chapter 21
Mary's POV
I looked around the beautiful fields before me. It was heart-warming and it seems to be welcoming me with open arms. I have no memories of the past. All I know is my name. Sometimes when I try to think about the past images of people smiling at me came across my head but I can never remember their faces. I want to go back to Felipe.
"Here." The girl named Shan Yu said as she hand me a handkerchief. I smiled. I do not know who she is but having her standing beside me makes me feel a little bit more secure.
I wipe the tears that started falling from my eyes. I was about to give the handkerchief back to Shan Yu when a girl around the age of 17 came out of nowhere. She's wearing a tour guide suit that has so many pockets and strap on her back is a bow and a basket of arrows. She has long straight brown hair and bright yellow eyes.
"Welcome to Camp half-blood! I will be your tour guide for the day! My name is Laika Stefa, daughter of Ares and you two are?"
"Mary."
"Shalina." Shan Yu said with a concern look on her face. Laika pulled my hand and Shan Yu's. We were forced to run together with her. She told us all about camp half-blood and all the wonderful places I could visit. I began to think back to what Shan Yu said before. This is the place where I'm suppose to belong..I wonder if that is true.
Laika left the two of us in front of the so called 'Big House'. She smiled at us but the moment she turned the other way her smile turned into a frown. She began to look around every single corner. Shan Yu and I observed her for a while but once she was far away we turned back to the problem at hand, the Big House.
"I need to go."
"Is anything wrong Shan Yu?" I asked.
"I'm not supposed to be here. I'm sorry Mary but I need to go before anyone else sees me." I was just about to ask her why but she disappeared into dust and vanished.
The door of the Big House opened and a man sitting on the wheel chair welcomed me with open arms.
"Stop pacing the room Laika. It's annoying." The girl named Laika stopped pacing around to look at the boy with light brown hair.
"Shut up or I'll pull your tongue out and cut it." Laika threaten. A ping pong ball hit the wall missing Laika a couple of inches. A girl with long blue hair sat on the other end of the ping pong table bouncing another ball.
"If the two of you don't stop the destination of this ball will be your faces. We are lucky enough to be allowed to use this room for this secret conversation and we only have limited time. If that stupid son of Leto doesn't come in 5 minutes I'll kill him."
Everyone in the room shut up and turned to look at the door, avoiding the eyes of their tyrant leader.
A maniacal laugher broke the silence. A boy with short black hair around the age of 17 materializes on top of the table.
"Everyone here in this room is chosen from different sets of demigods. Does everyone here know anything about the Prophecy of the Child of Death?" Everyone nodded. The leader smiled, no one knows whether it was because she's happy or she has weird thoughts running around her mind.
"Another war, I do wish this will be the last." A boy said while looking at the ring on his finger. Everyone nods.
The leader was about to speak when the door opened a girl much younger than anyone in the room. She has dark brown eyes and long black hair. Everyone felt silent.
"She'll die." The leader said with a sad soft voice. She stood up and silently disappeared from the room. Some of the members also stood up and disappeared. The others left behind leave the room in the normal fashion. The meeting officially ended when the leader left. The girl sat on one of the chairs. She feels embarrassed and guilty, she went inside the room because she was curious and she end up disturbing an important meeting.
"It wasn't your fault." Laika said as she sit down at the chair next to the girl. Laika smiled at her.
"The one in charge ..she's just ..well.." Laika tried to explain but the girl knew everything was her fault.
"Laika, I might not be someone who's intelligent but I am not dumb." The girl said with a frown. She got up the chair and turned to leave. Laika on the other hand stayed. From her picket she took out a necklace.
The necklace shows a picture of a boy. He has dark brown hair and the same bright yellow eyes like Laika. Laika smiled at the picture, "I wonder what you'll think of this asian girl Ricky?"
