Revenge from Above

4:The Scariest Poem Ever

I woke that morning facing Lestli, who was still sleeping. I sat up and rubbed my eyes, then looked toward the creek. I thought I saw something move that was vaguely human shaped, but I figured it was nothing.
"Morning." said Lestli as she sat up beside me.
"Good morning, sleep well?" I asked.
"Yeah, you?"
"Yep."
"We better get to breakfast."
"I guess, let's go." We ran to the pavilion just as the conch horn blew. "Right on time."
"Yep." said Lestli," see you at sword practice. " then she darted toward the line, me following.
After we ate breakfast it was time for sword training. We headed to the arena and started practicing; first, Jason Grace, Son of Jupiter, went up against me. We fought for nearly thirty minutes before I got the lip on him. He bent over for a second to rest, but I whacked him in the so he could rest easier, oops, he he.
After sword practice came archery, the Apollo kids, including Lestli, dominated. When we finally got free-time I told Chiron about the dreams I'd been having."I feared so, but...now, so soon?"
"What are you talking about?"
"Jack," he said,"have you ever heard of 'Jack of Blades'?"
"Yeah, the mideivil hero?"
"No, that's a run-off legend, jack of blades was spartan warrior until he joined a rebellion against the near the end of their civilization, he took down the entire Spartan army single handedly."
"And?"
"His spirit has tried poseses you and failed, but he came so close to success his fighting skill and some of his memories have become part of you."
"So he attempted to possess me?"
"Yes, he saw potential in your body, and in you."
"So he wanted to live through my body?"
"Yes, but your okay, and that's what matters, but that also means you are cut out for a quest, you should see the oracle.
"Okay then, where is she?"
"She's visiting the Athena cabin now, go see her." And I was off.
I got to Athena cabin and nocked on the door,"Anyone home?"
A blonde girl that looked about seventeen opened the door and smiled,"You must be the new guy, come in." She lead me in,"What can we help you with?"
"I need The Oracle." I said.
"Right here," a girl with frizzy red hair and sea green eyes walked up to me,"I guess Chiron sent you."
"Yeah."
"Follow me." She lead me to a cave on Half-blood Hill(hill at camp)and sat down on a rock. Then she said, Three shall travel to the forgotten land, The Archer, The Storm, and The Dead shall band, together they live, or together they die, in a mighty feat with The Awakening Sky. Then she hit the floor breathing heavily.
"Rachel!" I yelled,"Are you okay?!"
She took a deep breath,"I'm fine," she said,"that's just The Oracle speaking through me."
"What does it mean?"
"I don't even know what I said."
I told her what she said and she told me we should go to Chiron.

Once we had told Chiron what happened he said,"Obviously your 'The Dead', but who are the others?"
"Maybe he has to choose, he could pick Jason or Jay From the Zeus Cabin, and then pick an Apollo Camper." suggested Rachel.
"That's a good interpretation. Rachel, it is also the best thing so we shall do it." The good thing was, I already knew which Apollo Camper I was picking.

That night at the campfire Chiron announced the prophecy as the next "Great Prophecy"(obviously he had interpreted a little more) and put me in front of everyone to pick the other two campers," For Apollo, I choose Lestli," I said," but I would like to see the Zeus campers before I choose."
"Very well," said Chiron, "step forward." they themselves, Jason used a gladius made of Imperial Gold and Jay used a Spear and Shield made of Celestial Bronze. I studied them and decided that since I was a swordsman and Lestli was an archer, that someone with a spear and shield would give us all options,"I choose Jay."
"Very well, you shall leave directly after noon tomorrow." said Chiron.

That night I dreamt of the sky taking human form and crushing me. It hit me with such force a shock wave blew it back, then, nothing but blackness and pain.
