From Demigods to Werewolves

Chapter 17: Atlantia

The first thought that comes back to my mind, is that my whole body hurts which leads to my next thought reminding me I just tried to fight five Alphas while being drugged on Cordelia. It was then that I began to hear someone talking which made me force myself to open my eyes. My vision was blurry as a bright light was shining in my face and it felt like I was awakening after a long nap.

"Atlantia? Atlantia can you hear me?" I hear a voice say. My vision clears and I see a familiar blonde figure standing over me.

"Erica?" I say pushing myself up but only to have her put her hand on my chest.

"Easy, Atlantia. I stitched up your wounds but doesn't mean some haven't healed yet." Erica says. I scan my body and realize she was right since I could feel the long cut down my back was still quite open. My body couldn't use my healing power while it was still clearing out the Cordelia that was still inside.

"Where are we? How long have I been out?" I ask shaking my head as I look around the oddly familiar room. It had rows of bunk beds almost resembling the barracks that soldiers would sleep in.

"I don't know. You grabbed me and was reaching for Boyd but that she-wolf slashed you in the back. You screamed in pain and I think you just shadow travel to where you felt safe." Erica said gesturing to the room as I gently pushed my body up so I could see more of the room, "What is this place? I can't leave. I've been stuck here waiting for you to wake up for the last two weeks."

"It's Camp Jupiter." I say pushing myself off the bed. Erica grabs my arm as I stand, "The Roman camp of demigods. It was the place I stayed for four years after I lost my family. It's probably the safest place I know of."

"How do we leave?" Erica says, "We need to get back to Boyd."

"Boyd's not here?" I say turning to face her, "I didn't grab him?"

Erica shakes her head, "You shadow traveled here before Boyd could grab your hand." I curse under my breath.

"I have no energy to shadow travel and it's a long way back to Beacon Hills from here with no car." I say. "We're stuck here until I have enough energy to get us out of here."

"What about Boyd?" Erica says and I could see that she was very worried him. Not like me who was worried as a friend but possibly as someone who loved him.

"He should be fine. I can't see him in my visions but Derek is searching for him. He will find him." I promised. Erica accepted that but it didn't curve the worry that she had for Boyd. It was quite noticeable over the month and a half it took for me to heal. It was mid-August by the time I was strong enough to shadow travel.

"You sure you ok?" Erica says when it was time for us to attempt to shadow travel. "The wounds on your back still haven't healed."

"I need my demigod medicine if I am going to heal from a wound made by an Alpha." I say, "I have energy but I'm not sure if I will have enough to talk to Derek so you need to explain what happened, ok?"

"Yeah, I got it." Erica said, "But what happens if you can't bring us through the shadows?"

"I don't know." I admit before holding out my hand to Erica. She hesitated but still took my hand. I closed my eyes before calling to the shadows. They pull me and Erica into them but as I move to get us out, it felt harder for me to get out of them but luckily I found the strength to pull us out of the shadows and into my house. I collapse onto the ground groaning.

"We're back." Erica gasped looking around shocked, "You did it." She then runs out of the room looking for something. I hear her go up my stairs before her footsteps stop.
