OLIVER
"Dad?" Percy asked. Tyson nodded.
"He's in trouble," Tyson said. Percy looked at me so I whistled and said, "I'm going to the bathroom."
Percy's mom directed me and I thanked her and went to it. I close the door and instantly started looking for a spray bottle, but I didn't find one. I sighed and then saw the shower head, and saw it had a mist setting. I grinned and turned it on and sprayed it across the shower. I then fished in the backpack I brought from home and found a gold drachma.
"Oh goddess, accept my offering," I said and tossed it in. Then I said, "Camp Half-Blood."
A horse's body appeared in the rainbow and then Chiron's face showed.
"Hello Oliver," he greeted. I waved.
"Uh, sir, we're...... uh....... off track," I admitted. He raised an eyebrow as to tell me to go on and I told him the story, from when we crashed to right now.
"What was the prophecy?" Chiron asked.
"It said, the gods are missing their item of power.
Darkness will rise higher with each passing hour.
The main seven, along with much-needed help, will be the ones to recover the tokens.
Old enemies will be seen, and some new ones will rise.
And in the end, life is the prize."
I told it to him and he nodded the whole time.
"Andy, go get The main seven and Nico, Thalia, Adam, and Maddy," he told someone off-rainbow. "Oliver, you and Percy stay put. I'll have them join you in the quest, ok?"
I nodded as he sighed.
"Good luck." with that, the iris-message disappeared and I realized I was soaking wet from the mist.
"Dang it," I whined and walked out. I saw a frazzled-looking Percy sitting on the couch and staring at nothing.
"Um..... do you have any clothes you can spot me?" I asked him. He looked at me before getting up with a nod.
"Thanks," I said when he threw blue jeans and a pink tee at me.
"You can keep the shirt," he said. I shrugged.
"What's wrong with pink?" I asked. I heard him cough and say something about it being a girl's color. "FYI, it's my favorite color," I grumbled.
"Makes sense," I heard him mumble.
"Exsqueeze me? What was that?" I asked him. I swear he's scared of me, but is too proud to admit it.
"Nothing," he said. I raised an eyebrow and smiled. I turned into a lion and he looked scared.
"Uh......." He squeaked. I roared in response.
"Don't eat me!" he yelled and curled into a ball on the floor.
"What's going on- KITTY CAT!!!!!!!" something yelled and ran to me with outstretched arms. Tyson hugged me and I couldn't breathe. I took a ragged deep breath and turned into myself.
"Can't......... breathe..........." I squeaked out. Tyson looked at me and his eyes turned sad.
"Where kitty go?" he asked sadly.
"He's the kitty," Percy smirked and pointed at me. Tyson looked confused.
"What?" he dumbfoundedly asked.
"He's a shape shifter. He can turn into any animal," Percy explained.
"Woah! Turn into a......... bunny!!" Tyson yelled. I rolled my eyes but I turned into a fluffy yellow and black speckled bunny with floppy ears and he clapped like a five year old getting a puppy. He picked me up and started stroking me.
"Ok, ok. Stop it," I said and turned into myself.
"Ok," Tyson sadly said. The whole time Percy was laughing at me. I growled at him before sitting on the floor while crossing my arms.
"Where am I sleeping?" I asked with a smirk.
"Wait, what?" Percy asked.
"Chiron told us to stay here so the others could catch up," I explained.
Percy sighed, nodded, and said, "Couch."
