I was standing in front of the map. I was just staring at it. Trying to figure out where Annabeth might be, find out where they all are when Maryanne came rushing in, she was breathless.
"Are you Alright?" I asked her, I saw her putting a hand on the wall for support
"They found something. More accurately some people, they were covered in mud with different injuries. They haven't identified them yet" Maryanne said, I wanted to believe that one of them was Annabeth but I really wouldn't know until they were identified

"What is it?" I asked, I recognized the guard to be Sinclair, one of my oldest friends
"She's awake. Annabeth is awake" he said
