Annabeth's POV

I couldn't believe it. People now thought I was a traitor! Why would they think that? It made no sense! Now people were asking Thalia. She confirmed everything Luke had said. I ran to my friend. "Piper, I didn't do anything! I swear on the Styx. Can you please, please, PLEASE charmspeak them and tell them that I didn't do anything! PLEASE!" I opened my eyes wide and did a puppy dog look.

Piper shook her head. ''I'm sorry. I can't do anything. No how about you tell me Tartarus's plan to destroy the camp?" Piper shot me an evil glare.

I gulped. "I didn't do anything! I swear on the Styx I didn't do anything!"

"I don't believe you."

How could this have happened? I didn't do anything! I think Luke and Thalia are the bad ones. No wonder they've been looking at me wierd lately. But no one will believe me now. I should talk to Percy. Nope, that wouldn't work. I'll have to write a note and stick it into all the cabins.

Chiron rode in, breaking up the gossip. "HOLD IT! WHAT'S GOING ON?"

"Annabeth's working for Tartarus! She's discussing plans to destroy the camp!" a camper shouted.

Chiron's face turned hard. "Is this true?"

All the campers shouted "YES!"

" Annabeth, you had better get an explanation. We're discussing this in the Big House." Chiron said.

I stood in the biddle of the pavilion, shocked. When all the campers were gone, I kneeled on the cold stone floor and cried.

Mom, why is everyone saying this? I didn't do anything! Please tell me what's going on!

In the Big House

I was led into the basement.

"Annabeth Chase, I would like to hear your explanation." Chiron said sternly.

"I swear on the River Styx that I didn't do anything! Ask my mom if you don't believe me!" I sobbed.

"I fear that the gods are quite incapacitated since the Third War." Luke said.

Chiron nodded. "But for now, we will just keep you in the basement until we have further proof that you are innocent. Dismissed."

"But I didn't do anything!" I cried.

"I'm sorry, Annabeth. But this is your only choice. Now go to the room." Chiron replied.

As I was lead into the room, I couldn't help thinking that my mom, Athena was going to set this straight for me. I walked into the room, and Chiron locked the door behind me.
