Chapter 13.

"Ok, I think I'm ready." Rachel says as we wait outside the mini bus for our prophecy.

"Oh, great Oracle of Delphi, what must we do to save our brothers and sisters?" Thalia asks.

As I lean with my bag against the side of the van, Rachel's eyes glow green and as she speaks a green mist escapes.

"Six siblings shall go East, to find the second crew

And siblings of mortal soil return to a place they knew"

Mortal soil, Grace, Liam and I are siblings on our mortal farther's side.

"You have to help them. You HAVE to a HELP them. YOU HAVE TO HELP THEM!" She shouts before her eyes return to normal. "Sorry, Chiron, that's all I've got." Rachel says.

"It will do. You three," Chiron says, pointing at Grace, Liam and I, "what is a place that you used to know?" He asks.

"Our old house, probably, back in England, in the a North East.." I reply.

Chiron nods. "Do you know they way?"

"When we get to England, it's easy enough to get a train to a rail way, then I've got a good idea where to go. I used to get away with not buying a ticket on trains."

"Stay safe. Usually, I wouldn't advise a child of Poseidon or Hades to fly, but given the circumstances, and Thalia, I doubt that Zeus would try anything, to stop you." Chiron bows his head. "You have bags inside, ready. Thalia, you have the keys and have a safe journey."

At that, we fill up the van.

I sit beside Nico on the aisle seat at the right. Liam sits on the left, next to us and Grace sits at the back and ignores all of us. Lexi sits in front of us, her platinum blonde hair is up in a pony tail and she looks like a wolf.

"Let's go. I see you're all so excited to see me again you've sat so far back to avoid getting your hopes up." Thalia laughs as she starts the engine.

We drive to the airport. It's a ten minute drive to the airport. I was expecting some long journey across the country, but we can't drive across an ocean.

We climb out of the bus at the airport. When I see Thalia I notice that her skin is glowing. I assume it's something to do with her dad being the god of the sky and she always looks like a lightning bolt. As I step down, I thank my past self for having the foresight to place my daggers into protective sleeves because they dig into the thighs when I bend my legs.

I have my shield on my back, but under my bag so I don't have to carry it on my arms all the time. I play with my locket as we make our way inside.

"Ok, so my dad decided that if we're going to rob some aeroplane tickets we might as well go to town. We've got first class, but we need to get through security without calling attention to ourselves little miss gotta get all these knives." Thalia faces me and I shrug. "I thought we were only supposed to get a sword." Grace comments. "No one said there was a limit." I argue.

"Fair point. Do you know how to control the mist?" She asks.

"I barely know what it does." I reply.

"Well, it manipulates what mortals see. Can even create memories that never happened. I'll use it to get us through security, but it won't help if you do something stupid."

I look at Grace and she scowls at me. "Go away man." She huffs.

"You're certainly your parents children, alright." Lexi laughs.

"What?" Grace asks.

"Athena and Poseidon don't get along too well. Or at all. Athena really didn't like it that Percy was dating Annabeth or even being friends with her. It was actually funny to see her every time she saw the two together." Thalia smiles at the memory.

"So, I say that we get them back just to see her go up in flames again, yeah?" Nico decides.

We have to wait in line with everyone else. I was taught about Demi gods with ADHD, which explains a lot, and six half bloods waiting for I don't know how long isn't fun. But things got worse when a guard with one blue and one green eye asked me to go into a separate room because they wanted to ask me some questions about my passport. Thalia objected but I waved her off. "I'll be fine, I'll be back in a minute. See ya!" I call but it's not the passport I'm worried about. I mouth the word MONSTER with a nervous glance and she nods. I place my hand against my waist, where Backbiter lays.
