A Quest Message
* Piper McLean*
I didn't know how long it would take for Frank, Reyna and Hazel to get here. Also the message. If it couldn't be told through and Iris message, it must've been serious. But for now, I was bent on finishing breakfast with Jason. Jason rarely got up late. Since he was from Camp Jupiter, he was the military guy, usually up and at them.
"So what are you going to do right now?" Jason asked.
"Wait for you to finish breakfast then head to the stables. We need a few lessons on pegasi riding."
"Aww come on," Jason joked" you know I'm great with Tempest."
I gave him a smirk and began to walk off, waiting for him to follow. Just then, a conch horn blew. Me and Jason shared a glance and we ran to the top of Half- Blood Hill. Percy and Annabeth must've heard it too because they were already there. At the entrance, we had some guests. Reyna, Hazel, and Frank were smiling waiting to be received. Dang they got here fast, how, I didn't know. Frank walked up to the 4 of us, Hazel and Reyna trailed behind.
" Guys, glad we got to see ya again before camp ends." Percy said.
" Yea, umm can we talk to you guys in the Big House?" Hazel asked.
Hazel seemed excited, but nervous at the same time. I guess that whatever they had to tell us was something that would change us. As a group we all headed over the Big House.
* Hazel Levesque*
We passed by the centaur, Chiron. He saw us heading towards the Big House I think it was and he nodded. Campers at the Greek camp gazed as we passed by, maybe they wanted to know what we were up to. Percy just waved as if he was a celebrity, acknowledging his fans. Everybody, including me, rolled our eyes at him. It made me think of Leo, may the gods know he's safe. Although Nico and I still don't know if he's alive or not. Suddenly I almost tripped. We had reached the Big House and I had almost fell on the steps to the porch.
" So let's go on in guys, make ourselves comfy." Annabeth commented.
" Yes we have received some news. Something Ella has told us." Reyna started, after we had sat down in the living room.
" Did she recite another prophecy?" Jason asked, and he continued," because camp is almost over. Only 2 more days left."
Percy interrupted," Umm and I know it's a late reminder, but my birthday is in 4 days. Woo gonna turn 17."
But the way he said it made him sound as if he was saying goodbye to the happiness we possessed just a few minutes ago. As we all took that in, I gazed around the living room of the Big House. There was a tiger's head above the fireplace, and every minute it would emit a little growl or snarl. But each time it did just made my nerves tingle. Believe me, I have been frightened a lot.
" Okay, so how does the prophecy go?" Annabeth asked.
Reyna looked around, then stoop up and said," The children of 7 gods , half mortal shall be key to receive a treasure most fleeting. A journey proposed where one is lost and love is questioned with friendship a bond."
"Wow, so what does this tell us guys?" Frank spoke up.
"Well, personally, to me it doesn't sound complete. Like something's missing." I said.
I couldn't believe it. Not even a month since we defeated Gaea and there was another prophecy. And it seemed to me that we were the 7 demigods, again. Reyna must've read my thoughts because she said,
" Well I believe that you 7 heroes of Olympus have another quest."
" Aren't you going to join us Reyna?" Annabeth asked.
" No, someone needs to run Camp Jupiter. Frank can go. I can do well on my own for a while." Reyna replied.
Reyna got up ready to leave. She instructed Frank and I to be careful and that we should be back soon. Probably 2 weeks tops. I thought our quest might take that long as well. Before she left, Percy asked Blackjack to give Reyna a ride back to Camp Jupiter. Since I wouldn't be shadow-traveling us back, Reyna once again had a chance to ride a pegasi. We all waved goodbye as she flew off.
Percy broke the silence with," Guys, there's still one thing. The prophecy said 7, but without Leo, wherever he is, only 6 of us are here."
