Meg tried not to sleep much on her way to Apollo, but it was inevitable.

As soon as Meg's head hit her makeshift bed the dreams came.

Meg was standing next to her Godly friend, but he wasn't him.

The God took aim at a couple.

"What do you think your doing?" Meg said breaking the silence.

The God jumped and let loose the arrow, missing the targets.

"WHAT THE HADES ARE YOU DOING HERE!?" The God Shouted. "You made me miss my target!"

Meg Blew him a McCaffery worthy raspberry and rolled her eyes.

The Gods form Flickered as he shrieked in pain.

For just a Moment Meg could see her Apollo, he was in pain but tried to smile her to show he was fine.

She saw Lester, her favorite mortal dummy. His acne infested face wasn't very good at hiding the pain he felt.

Were those scars new??

They returned to one the not Apollo. He grinned menacingly. "Meg McCaffrey, daughter of Demeter, to what do I owe the pleasure?" His bow disappeared out of sight and He bowed.

"Yeah, I'd like to talk to Lester please. But if he's not available I'll take Apollo."

As the not Apollo shimmered away he grinned wickedly. Then Lester came to view.

He was indeed injured.

His nose broken, his right eye swollen shut. His left arm was bent at a wrong angle and was dislocated at the shoulder. He was covered in deep cuts and Dark Bruises.

Meg almost burst into tears... Almost, the beast, had raised her better than that. 

"What happened to you?"  She asked trying to tend to his wounds.

"Nothin, just doin what I do best. Gettin in Trouble." 

Meg put Lester's arm back in its socket and He let out a shriek.

"I- I missed you Meg." Lester said trying to focus on something else that wasn't the pain coursing through his body.

"You should have visited more often then."  She rolled her eyes as she cleaned his cuts.

Lester chuckled.

"How's-"

His form flickered

Not Apollo tapped his wrist as if saying your runin out of time...

Lester came back into focus.

"Sorry, that happens a lot." He whined rubbing his temple. "How's your boyfriend?"

Megs dream began to fade.

"Boyfriend? I never had a boyfriend." 

Lester started to get farther away and fade into nothing.

"But the one in the stables, in camp Jupiter..." Lester had more to say but Meg Had awoken.

"Stables?" Meg was confused on what Lester was talking about?
