After a small yet emotional reunion with their mentor, Percy and Luke returned to their cabin. The other members of Chaos's army were waiting for them.
"Anything worth our mention?", Jason asked bored, as he swung his sword in mock practice.
"One, Chiron knows about us. The real us.", Percy said and Jason nearly dropped his sword.
"How?"
"Only he can explain. Something about a Teacher's intuition.", Luke replied, scratching his head.
"Anyone else?", Bianca asked.
"That an elaborate attempt to frame me had taken place.", Percy said and retold everything that Chiron and Clarisse explained.
"That sucks. And how could Annabeth lie through her teeth without getting caught?", Jason asked in disbelief.
"Believe me, Bro. I have the same question too.", Percy sighed and plopped onto the bench. He was exhausted and frustrated.
"And we have the Scrolls of Metis.", Luke said annoyed, explaining everything they knew about it.
"That sucks. Now, how can you say that you are being framed, this war and the scrolls are connected? That is such a long shot.", Jason asked perplexed.
"Just an intuition.", Percy replied back.
"Do we even know where we can start?", Beckendorf asked in annoyance. They were going nowhere.
"I have to find Annabeth.", Percy said and stood up. He looked dead serious.
"Why?", Bianca asked.
"Because one she is like the leader of this camp. Two, she is missing and may need help. Three, I need to find her and really ask her in the face what wrong I did. First, she lied that I broke up instead of her, and then she lied through her teeth that I was a traitor and coward who switched sides because she found me and I was scared. It is hard to be called a Traitor, Bianca! But to be called a COWARD???? Even the worst of demigods are anything but coward!!!!", Percy's voice rang across the cabin. He was really struggling to keep his emotions intact.
"I understand Percy. This is messed up. I never thought in my wildest dreams that Annabeth would do such a thing.", Luke said sadly and hugged his bestie to console him.
"Yes, Percy. We need to pull ourselves together. You may think everything is connected. But not all think that way. They need to win this war. Else their home, our home, this will be destroyed.", Silena said calmly yet firmly, Charmspeak laced in her words.
"You know that Charmspeak does not affect us.", Percy said with a small smile.
"I know. I use it for all of you to understand how serious I am.", Silena said bluntly. They all nodded.
"Thank you. And yes. You are correct. I need to find her, but we need to prepare for the war. So, I have a plan.", Percy said.
"I didn't know you had the brains to come up with a plan.", Luke snickered. Percy whacked him on his head.
"I am your commander. Devising strategies should be my strong point. Now, the plan is very simple. I and Luke shall go and find Annabeth. The rest of you will stay back and train the campers. Jason, you're in charge. Make them war ready.", Percy said in a commanding tone.
"Aye! Captain.", Jason mock saluted and the whole cabin burst into laughter.
"On a serious note, get ready. I will go to Rachel to ask for any prophecy. It will give us a good place to start.", Percy said.
"Sure. We are waiting tomorrow to kick the ass of some campers. Only then would sense be instilled in them.", Luke said mischievously.
"Luke. In all probability, you will accompany me. I need my lieutenant when I face the scary prophecy.", Percy said.
