A/N: I'm not dead. Yay. It's almost summer! Giant turtles! … That was random. *quietly sneaks out of room*

I also want to thank enigmaticpencil for leaving a really nice review that made me quite happy. Thank you, and I like your story!

Disclaimer: Things I don't and will never own: Percy Jackson and the Olympians, The Hunger Games, The Green Bay Packers, and a cat. Well, I might get a cat later on in life, but chances are slim.

Chapter 7:

Annabeth's POV

I entered the training room and shot some arrows. No bullseyes, but good enough. I threw some knives, and finished off with the obstacle course. I exited the training room and sat back in my seat to watch Percy step into the training room.

When he came out a few minutes later, I leaned over and whispered, "So, the voice in my dream, I have some guesses of who it belongs to. They aren't very specific, but it might narrow it down." Percy nodded and I continued. "Piper said the voice wanted us to pay for what we did to their ancestor. So I was thinking a descendent of Gaea or if it's possible Kronos too."

"Yeah, but that could be almost anyone!" He was right. I sighed. That's the thing about godly families. It's all jumbled. Technically, I'm dating my first cousin once removed. I gave him a quick kiss right as Bea got back. She raised an eyebrow, but otherwise said nothing. I felt slightly hostile towards her but I didn't know why. I returned my focus to figuring out who the presence in my dream was.

Percy's POV

I'd wasted my first day of training trying to teach the kid to swim. He was like 13. I felt sad. In the end, the best he could do was tread water. After one day, I was not particularly eager to teach another lesson, and if I was gonna keep my friends safe, I would need to keep in shape. Although I was slightly pconcerned about who would survive. That kid, Digit, I felt bad for him. He didn't seem like much of an athlete.

It was the last day of training before the actual games. That meant that today was when we were supposed to demonstrate our skill to the judges. We all waited outside the training room. I had Annabeth on one side and Bea on the other. We were organized by District. The first tribute to enter the training room was the male tribute from 1. Then was Hazel, who was sitting next to Leo, who went after Hazel. The female from 2 entered and after she came out, the boy I had to teach to swim went. Then was Annabeth. I didn't doubt that she would put on a good show. After her was me.

I entered the training room and walk over to the rack of weapons was. I picked up a sword. I had Riptide with me but I didn't think it would be a good idea to take it out. The sword was close enough in balance, so I walked over to the obstacle course. I started it up on the highest level. I made my way through it, not getting tagged once. I deflected the projectiles off the sword, finishing it off by blowing up a sword fighting dummy. After I was dismissed, I sat waiting, but I couldn't sit still.

Nico's POV

I was the second to last person to enter the training room. In an attempt to wow the judges, I grabbed a sword and took on 3 of the training dummy's at once. When I was dismissed, I exited the room and sat back down. Ashley entered, and when she came out, she seemed like she was disappointed.

Afterwards, all the tributes exited and went back up to their rooms. In my room, I took a shower and put on regular clothes. I noticed some mist in the bathroom, creating a rainbow. A crazy idea popped into my mind, and I fished around in my drawer for a drachma. Pulling one out, I threw it into the rainbow and said, "O' Iris, goddess of the rainbow, show me Hazel Levesque." The most shimmered, and Hazel appeared.

"Nico? Is this an IM? It works here?" Hazel asked when she noticed me. I nodded. "That's great! We should tell the others."

"Okay, I'll do that in a sec, but first, do you actually think we're going to end up killing each other?"

"I'm not sure, but they're our friends. We have to trust each other," Hazel said. I nodded and dissolved the mist. I ran to get another drachma from my drawer. It was my only one left. I turned on the hot water and created another rainbow.

"O' Iris, goddess of the rainbow, show me Percy Jackson."

"Nico?" The voice that answered me was not Percy.

"Annabeth? Is Percy with you?"

"Yeah, what's up?" called a second voice.

"So, I found out that Iris messages work here."

"That's great! Should we tell the others?"

"Yeah, I'm out of drachmas. I already told Hazel."

"Okay. Thanks for letting us know!" Then they cut the connection.

I flopped on my bed and got thinking. If IMs work, that must mean Iris is here. If Iris is here, what other gods are here, and what have they been doing? I was going to think about it more, when Ashley and Gale called me to see what our scores were. It started with District 1. Hazel got a 7 out of 12. Leo got a 6 out of 12, Annabeth got 8 out of 12, Percy got 9 out of 12, Jason got the same as Percy, Piper got 7 out of 12, Frank got 8 out of 12, and I got 8 out of 12. Ashley got a 7 out of 12, which she seemed mad about. Gale congratulated me and Ashley, and we went to go eat. (A/N: I know, it's a little out of sequence.) After dinner, we headed into our respective rooms. I fell asleep with my mind whirring about everything.

A/N: That's the end of the chapter. So, any recommendations, requests, comments, etc., feel free to leave a review. I'm not 100% sure on how I'm going to carry out the rest of the story, but I will not stop, until I reach the end.
