Percy:

It was another day of waiting for something to happen. Everyone has been on edge ever since we received the prophecy. Even Annabeth was stressed out because she couldn't find a single thing about the Drako dude and Aurora. We still haven't told anyone about our dream because I have a feeling that I just shouldn't. My heart haven't betrayed me until now so I decided to listen to it. Sure I've made some stupid decisions throughout my life but it all worked out in the end. I am very suspicious that something big was going to happen because for the past few days, I've been having dreamless sleeps which was something way too rare for me.

Anyways, I just hope that today won't have too much unusual things happening since it is Annabeth's 21st birthday. I prepared a classic vanilla cake with a chocolate owl on the top. I really hope she will like it... Maybe she doesn't like vanilla anymore? Maybe she will think the cake is too plain. Oh my gods what if- "Hey seaweed brain, what you doing? Why are you walking back and forth holding a box?" SHE asked. Oh gods, Annie is here. I immediately stopped moving and turned to her, nervous as heck.

 Uhhh, hey Wise Girl, ummm... So it is your birthday today. I made this-this cake for you and-and I really hope you-you like it." I stuttered out, blushing.

Annabeth gasped  as she opened the the box. "Gods Percy, the cake is beautiful! You seriously made it yourself? When did you become such a good baker?!" Her mouth fell to the floor gaping like a fish when she finished her sentence.

I chuckled at her expression but most of all, I was so happy that she liked it! She's so cute when she's smiling at me, her golden locks flying everywhere as the wind goes by her. No! Stop Percy this instant! It's her birthday, you don't want to make a fool out of yourself today. I thought as I shook my head to clear those thoughts from my head. Ughhh, sometimes I really wish I don't have ADHD even if that means I might get killed.

Time Skip...

We were laughing around the campfire, singing, making jokes and having a good time! Me and Wise Girl just finished eating the cake, and let me tell you. It tasted heavenly despite the simple decorations!

All of a sudden, a wolf howl was heard by everyone at camp. As everyone turned their heads towards the noise, we saw that the moon was glowing blue! That caught EVERYONE'S attention. It was the first like of the prophecy! What will happen now? What does this mean? When will the second line start? These questions were what everyone was thinking about by the look on their faces. The campers suddenly started yelling and asking questions all at the same time.

"SILENCE" Chiron yelled on the top of his lungs. Not a single noise was made as everyone turned their heads to the centaur. The atmosphere was tense and many were scared. "I know that many of you wants to stay out and discuss the prophecy but it is time to go back to your cabins. We will talk about what happend today tomorrow morning. Now go to sleep if you don't want to be eaten by the harpies. Goodnight everyone."

Lots of protests were made by the campers, especially the older ones but Chiron just stomped his hoof and walked back in the Big House. The campers started going back to their cabins though some did so more recluently than others. cough me and Wise Girl cough.

I sighed as I fell onto my bed, still thinking about the blue moon. The prophecy was very direct this time. I mean when it said the moon will glow blue, I thought it had a double-meaning. Nooooo, the moon actually was blue. Oh Styx, what's happening to the world?!

'Anyways, I'll just talk with Annie about it the first thing when the sun goes up.' I told myself as I closed my eyes, entering the realm of Hypnos...
