PREPARING TO FLY

(The prohecy-
Four campers shall sail to the eerie land of east,
To discern a son of magic who was wrongly seized.
They'll find what they pursue only to dispair,
And leave with a loss hard to bear.
Who they search is someone unique,
For it is death who they must truly seek.)

"The eerie land of east?", Percy said, "What can be more east to New York in USA? The Bermuda triangle?"

" Eerie land, Seaweed Brain", Annabeth said, "The Bermuda triangle is all water. But still I have no idea what the prophecy is taking about. Do you think it can be Ogygia?".

Leo shook his head, "Ogygia is unplottable on any map. I don't even know if it's in the east.", he said.

"However wild your guesses are, I hate to break it to you but perhaps the prophecy is not talking about America at all. I think it refers to England.", Chiron said.

"England?", Percy echoed, "What's 'eerie' about England?".

"Oh.. umm actually there's a school.", Chiron said.

Annabeth frowned, "A school? In a country that big, I'm sure there must be many schools."

"No, there is a school of magic. Hogwarts- the school of Witchcraft and Wizardry.", Chiron said.

All of them were staring at Chiron as though they had never seen him before. Annabeth recovered first. She waved an arm in the air and said, "Explain".

So he did.

As their fourth camper, Annabeth suggested a satyr as they can smell demigods, so Percy chose Grover.
They believed he could help them find this son of magic who they had interpreted to be a son of Hecate.

Chiron seemed to be contacting Dumbledore ever so frequently, with owls flowing in and out of the big house. Other campers, who were unaware of this prophecy, thought this was because of Athena Parthenos.

Annabeth seemed immersed in either a book or laptop that looked like daedalus's laptop (maybe it was a copy made by her) to gather as much information as she could.

All of them having very kindly refused to go by plane, Percy hired a boat from Poseidon's blessings while Leo fixed it with explosives (for easy way through monsters on the way, as they always seem to find demigods) and boosters (to be able to fly while staying on the water, meaning for speed).

They prepared themselves till September 1, when they finally set out to 'sail to the eerie land of east'.
