I'm sitting in the Poseidon's alone with Percy running around with Nico and Tyson still at dad's palace.

"Incoming Iris message from Sally Jackson," a voice says from my fountain.

My mom's image appears.

"Hi mom," I say.

"Phoebe, did you know about your brothers prophecy?" She asks.

"Yeah, but I don't have any idea what he's doing or where he is," I say.

"He's doing something that involves getting into a river in the underworld," she says confused.

"HE'S DOING WHAT NOW!" I yell, "HE's GETTING INTO THE RIVER STYX!"

"Honey, he's going to die," she says.

I appreciate her trying to break this to me.

"Mom, I know. I'm- I'm so sorry," I say with a small sob.

"Can you come home? Just for a little while?" Mom asks.

"Mom I-" I get cut off by a knock at my door, "one second."

I go to the door and see Travis.

"Hi, um I'm talking with my mom right now. What do you need?" I ask him.

"Have you not tons her?" He asks in a whisper.

"Fine come here," I say grabbing his wrist.

"This is not what I meant," he says.

I pull him over to the fountain where my mom was.

"Mom, this is my boyfriend Travis," I say.

She looks from me to him. I grab his hand and he stands awkwardly.

"Hi Mrs. Jackson," says Travis

"Please call me Sally," my mom says.

"To answer your question mom, no I can't right now and I sorry. I guess I'll hopefully see you later," I say with a small tear not knowing if I will see her later.

"Phoebe I love you so much. Be safe," she says.

"Bye mom," I say as the Iris Message disappears.

"Your mom seems nice," says Travis.

"She is," I say with a small tear.

"How many times do I have to say this. It'll be ok," Travis  says.

"I hope your right," I mumble.
