The Artemis Daughter

Chapter 7

We went out of the place where I was sleeping. It was a big house with wooden walls. It was surrounded by some strawberry fields and some strange creatures were working in it. I stopped in front of them to take a good look at them. 'They are satyrs!' the voice inside of my head mumbled. Well, it was also me. That voice was my own voice. I think some of my old memories are being clear by seeing those things. Maybe, I'll recall my memory soon. I felt happy.

Those satyrs were some creatures who were half-human and half-goat. Well, their upper body was a human body but they had goat legs. Well, they had goat-horns too... every satyr had a wooden flute with them and some of them were playing those flutes. The strawberries grew up with the sound of flutes. I'm not lying!!! I just said the truth...

When I see them, some memories flowed into my mind. Well, they are also unclear as always. I hate it. It's an old satyr. Someone named... Pan...?! Maybe... well, I can't tell it properly if it is an unclear memory or an imagine. Because when I was the driver-boy, I saw some unclear memories and I felt that there must be someone like him that I know but, in this case, I didn't feel so. Not only when I saw the driver-boy. It happened when I saw the stormy-gray eyed girl too.

I looked at others. They were walking forward without me!? Huh... they are in a heavy talk so, how can they even remember me? I ran to them to catch up.

"Well, oracle want to say something but she doesn't split it out."

"That's crazy!"

"So, how's Rachel's condition?"

"Well, it has affected her too, but she still can manage it. We always keep a doctor next to her."

"How many days after Oracle started to do those crazy stuff?"

"For today, it's been 12 days"

"12 days!!! What's wrong with the Oracle?"

"Well, my dad also came to see what's going on... but Apollo also can't find out it."

"This is crazy. Seaweed brain, you're attracting troubles! How many troubles do you wanna attract?"

"Well guys...? What are you talking about? I can't understand anything?" I couldn't bear it anymore as I didn't understand any of them. "Well, it's something that you don't know... well, it's maybe something about the future... can't tell right now" Percy looked at me.

His eyes... it's reminding me something. "Stop! Stop looking at me like that, you driver-boy!" I looked away. "What? Did I do something?" he amazed. "You're eyes! I... it makes me headache...!" I grabbed my head. That headache is killing me.

"Percy, stop looking at her!" Nico shouted. He ran to me and caught me before I fell down. I sat on my knees. Nico's hands were around me. He was panic. He had hold me tightly. "Ah, Ni... Nico. Ple... Please light your gri... grip... I...It hurts... me..." my energy had been gone away from me so, I had to stutter.

"Ah, sorry..." Nico lightened his grip. I felt ease. I stayed like that for a while until I be fine. When the dizziness went away, I stood up.

"Are you OK?" Will looked into me. I shook my head. "What's wrong with you? You passed out before because you saw Percy? That's funny" Annabeth looked away angrily. "Well, I don't know why is that but I don't wanna disturb you for your work. Let's go to the Oracle who you told that is making fuss of everything." I was burning up with my anger.

Then all of us walked silently. We stopped in front of a cave. There were some people who were standing in front of it. Most of them were kids above 10 years maybe. 'They are demi-gods. Half human and half god' my own voice mumbled inside of my head. Now I'm used of it. At first it made me shock but now it's totally fine.

A girl came out of that cave. "Annabeth, Percy! you're here. That's good. Wow, Nico I thought you're still in the underworld..." she looked at me. "...woah! Who is this? A new demi-god? Well, what the hell she's wearing?"

Percy laughed. "She's notwearing the hell. She's a child of underworld" everyone who were around usstarted to laugh except me and Nico. "This is not a time to joke. Can you tellme what's going on with orac..." Nico didn't finish what he was talking.
