* Percy Jackson*

No , no, no. No, I couldn't do this. I've dealt with too many scary "visions" . Kronos and Gaea. But this is even creepier. I don't know who this is.

" Perseus, you shouldn't fight the dream. If you think about it, it should be worth a night."

I didn't care. I kept willing my subconscious to get out, but the pull of the stranger was too strong. Plus, I knew they wanted me dead or something bad when they call me by my ugh, real name. Suddenly, the feeling like I was running was gone. It was like the floor slipped out from under my feet and I was falling, but this time without Annabeth. I was trying to grab something, but it was just darkness. Then I hit. Something hard. I got up, rubbing my head. I looked down to where to see what I'd fallen on. Wood. Then I got the idea to look around, check my surroundings. I was on a boat. A strange feeling told me I was back on the Argo II.

" Why am I here?" I questioned.

I knew it was weird to just talk into thin air, but it was just a dream.

" Alas, this was the last place I was encountered. The last place I existed. But of course, now I'm back."

" So I assume you were defeated by me and my friends?" I just wanted to make talk. More I do, the sooner I get out of here.

" You weren't around. You were in Tartarus. One of your friends did. But why you are here, well there is a prophecy you are in."

The words, the voice just sent chills down my back. I didn't want to answer. I could sense the presence was somewhere. So I checked my dream pocket. Miraculously, Riptide was in there. I got ready to uncap. My plan now? Get the thing get out of the dream.

" What makes you think I'm gonna tell you anything about what I know?"

Then there was rumbling behind me. I looked back to see the mast falling towards me. I dove out of the way. It cracked the deck, but not enough to break the ship in half. My foot barely escaped. I looked over to see that my foot was less than an inch away of being under the mast.

" Don't play coy with me. Tell you what, the more you don't answer what I need, soon the ship will be gone. And you'll be saying hello to the water."

I did not want to do it again, but if I didn't I wouldn't be me. I decided to play along. All I knew about this person, is that they want me to get hurt in my dream, and they probably want revenge on my friends and me. But I wasn't there, so why was I getting picked on?

" Fine. We had our friends from Camp Jupiter on an emergency visit. There was a new prophecy, " 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" There happy now?"

I didn't wait to see if the voice was going to have a response. I dashed to the bar at the end of the deck, but I only made it about 5 steps when something bounced me back. I slid and my head hit the fallen mast. I jerked up, and ran back to the bar. But slower. Then I felt it. A barrier.

" It's not that easy to escape me. I would applaud your effort, but you are still here" the voice taunted.

Great, I'm havin' so much fun, i murmured.

" Son of Poseidon, a legendary hero. Miraculous you are part of a prophecy. I imagine you have figured out there are some pieces missing. Your rather rebellious attitude has kept you the target of many deities. Also we cannot forget monsters. Why do you let yourself do the work of the gods?"

Okay. He/she knew who my father was. They weren't going to let me get away so easily. But I didn't understand the threats. The boat would get destroyed the more I resisted, and I'd fall into the water. But the water could keep me safe. Unless it wasn't regular water. Then I realized with a jolt that if the boat was on water, why wasn't it moving? I wasn't going to tell them what they wanted. I'm not going to be forced to express my opinions, I needed to keep some things to myself.

" I have waited enough."

Then the boat got ready for another attack.

* Annabeth Chase*

I was sleeping peacefully, for what felt like the first time since Gaea was gone, when there was a loud pound on the front door of the apartment. I ran as fast I could, whipping open my door, running to the living room and looking through the peephole. It was Mrs. Jackson. I opened the door to see Mrs. Jackson with a panicked look on her face.

" Mrs. Jackson, what happened? Please come inside." I told her.

" No time! You have to help me. Percy is having a nightmare. Or one of his visions! Or whatever it is, he's not waking up! No matter how much I shook him he just struggled even more!" she screamed with concern.

Together we raced back to her apartment. I entered the door when Mrs. Jackson made a gesture that we should enter the kitchen.

" I fear the nightmare may have gotten worse. Look." she turned the faucet on, but the was no water. " He must have the water in his room."

That was all I needed to hear. I ran to his room and burst to have water splashed on my face. There were spouts of water surrounding Percy while he kept moving his body all across his bed. His movements made it seem as if he was trying to get out of something. It could've been another flashback from Tartarus. I rushed forward and started shaking him and yelling for him to wake up, his mother's presence in the doorway.

* Percy Jackson*

The barrier started getting smaller. There was like an earthquake and I saw spikes of ice shooting out the deck. Before the entire deck could be covered, where I was standing on, it stopped.

" I don't like to do what the gods send me to do. The more I do, the closer I get to get getting killed. Including being away for almost eight months from my friends. Then there's the fact that I end up angering them even more. But I fight for what I think is right."

" Good. But you shouldn't keep me waiting."

I took that as my chance. I whipped out Riptide and listened for where the voice was. Right behind me. I slashed backward but all I hit was an icicle, which shattered.

" Not as easy as you think to get away, right Perseus?" Then the voice cackled.

" That's it! I'm not going to answer any more! I want out!" I yelled.

Then I did something drastic. I tried to summon the water. There was a cracking sound and ice and water rose, towering over the ship. Now I knew that this person could do ice. I let the water crash down on the ship, washing me into the ocean.

" NO! YOU ARE NOT LEAVING! "

But by then it was too late. The scenery started turning dark. Then I knew I was waking up. From the water I could see ice shaped like hands reaching for me, but the darkness caught it and ice shards landed.

" Very well played Perseus. But I will see you again. Watch yourself now."

Then the darkness reached me and I woke up.

" Oh thank goodness, you're awake!" my mom said.

" Percy whatever you're thinking, do not put down the water." Annabeth said. When did she get here?

* Annabeth Chase*

" Mom.. Annabeth, what happened?" Percy asked.

" Don't worry about that right now Percy." I said, almost ready to yell.

" Percy, honey, look around you." His mom calmly said.

I looked around with Percy. The water had turned into an above-ground pool, but it hadn't landed on the floor yet. But it was real close. Why I was mad you ask? Percy tossed and turned, along with the water. I was drenched! Percy's eyes widened as he looked around at all the water, then his eyes finally settled on my angry face.

" Percy return the water to the sink and everywhere else the water came from." Mrs. Jackson and me both said, but I continued," I think you have almost all the water in the building. After you do this, you're going to tell me what happened."

Percy opened his mouth, but since I knew him, I interrupted," And before you say NO, you know you'll want to tell me when you hear exactly what happened out here. About what happened that made me wake up 3:30 in the morning."

I made a gesture to him showing him how I was going to explain how he was. He closed his mouth and raised his hand. The water started floating and going out of the room. Out of amazement a spout passed by my head and put my hand in, making a ripple.

Percy laughed, " Annabeth, you make that look like a comet." He smiled as he was still in bed and raised both hands. The final spout of water got out if the room and we could hear the water draining into the sinks.

" Mom can we have a little privacy? I think I'm in for it." Percy said, glancing uneasily at me. I glared at him. But Mrs. Jackson got the hint and she left.

I saw Percy tense as his mom shut the door. He looked like he wanted to go out the door too. He started getting out of bed. I crossed my arms.

" Don't even think about it Percy. Honestly, what's the worst I could do to you?"

" You judo-flipped me once. Also I will mention that you look like you're ready to scream at me."

Okay I admit he had me there. When we were at camp, the nightmares weren't as intense as what I saw just a few minutes ago. So I took a deep breath and said,

" Okay, then tell me what happened. I'll try not to be angry. It's just that you're my boyfriend and we both know that we don't want anything bad to happen to us."

" Fine, but You might want to sit down. It might be kind of surprising."

I sat down and he paced a few seconds before he turned to me with a fake smile plastered on his face, but as he talked it faded.

" I couldn't sleep because I was overthinking about the prophecy. Then there's been something that's been in my head for the last few days, since we heard the prophecy. A voice."

" Percy," my voice rising," you can't have another voice haunting you! First Kronos then Gaea! Why does everyone want to mess with my boyfriend!?"

" Well I may be your boyfriend, but in our world, we're demigods, and I happen to the son of Posideon/ Neptune. A son of the big three. I am supposedly dangerous, and we all know that the whole demigod world would be better off without sons or daughters of the most powerful gods. Also, I think I figured out another new line of the prophecy."

" I'm going to stop you there Seaweed Brain. I know this is about you and the reason we're here, but you need to know what was going in that we had all that water in here." It was my turn to take a deep breath. " You were tossing and turning so badly. You almost fell out of bed. I was so worried that the water was going to make you float. You looked like you were fighting against something trying to keep you from leaving."

* Percy Jackson*

I didn't know whether or not to tell Annabeth what really happened in the dream. I'd told her about the voice, but if it was just the voice that worried her, I didn't want to tell her more to turn her into a nervous wreck. So I went with this.

" The voice. I can't tell it it's Kronos or Gaea or someone else. Their voice sends chills down my spine. The voice said if I was ready to spend some time with it and it dragged me into a horrible nightmare. You probably saw me fighting because I kept resisting, trying to get out of the dream. It was a feeble attempt, because it's never worked with Kronos or Gaea. It kept wanting me to answer questions, and it kept trying to hurt me."

I stopped trying to say that I was done. I didn't want to say more.

"Percy, I can tell this hurts you because of the way you struggled, but you said that you think you figured out another piece of the prophecy."

I remembered. Seeing that vision had brought words to my brain that wouldn't leave. Another missing piece.

" A child of the Big Three, shall be assigned a great deed, separate from those who grieve."

Annabeth's expression told me that I was right. She said that we should tell them in the morning when I should be recovered. She was going to sleep on our couch since I didn't want her going out on her own. The last thing she said to me before she walked out of my room was,

" I know it's early, but happy 17th birthday."
