(The Pegasi land)
(Ellie Bolt goes close to a Pegasus and strokes it on the forehead)
Ellie Bolt:😊
Ellie Bolt:(turning to Jonah Hart,Ariana and Aaron Finley)Quit standing there like you were petrified by Medusa,let's go!
(Ellie Bolt starts sitting on the Pegasus)
(Jonah Hart and Aaron Finley sit on the Pegasi)
Jonah Hart:(to Ariana Finley)Ariana?Are you coming?
Ariana Finley:(lying/nervous)No...I mean...yes...well...I mean...are we sure we should accept This Pegasus from Persephone after what she just did?...
Aaron Finley:Ariana,please,it's the only way we can get to Oregon on time.You cannot continue to avoid this.
Ariana:(lying/nervous)What do you mean,Aaron?I don't know what your talking about...
Ellie:I'm starting to think where this is going...
Ellie:Let me guess,you're afraid of heights,but as a daughter of Athena,you're too proud to admit.
(Ariana starts laughing in a nervous way)
Ariana:(lying/laughting/nervous)What?No.That's ridiculous.
Ellie:😑
Ariana:Fine.I'm afraid of heights,but as a daughter of Athena,I'm too proud to admit it.Are you happy?
(Ariana sits in a rock)
Ariana:😔Go without me.I'm not worthy of this quest.
(Aaron gets off the Pegasus to confort his twin sister)
Jonah:Ariana,we've so far now,you can't just quit.
Ellie:Yeah.You are no one to say that you can't be afraid of anything.Especially since you brain dorks almost destroyed your own cabin over a little Spider last summer.
Aaron:That was at Camp,Ellie.Where no one else is watching her.But here,they're watching us.She's watching us.
Jonah:You mean,Athena?
(Ariana and Aaron says "Yes" with their head)
Ariana:Athena expects all of her children to be successful in quests.You must shown confidence at all time and any sign of weaknesses should be allowed to be shown...except Spiders,that is reasonably an exception for various reasons...
Aaron:A quest is really important for a child of Athena.It's like a rite of passage.Without it,you can't really prove that you're a true brain child.
Jonah:...
(Jonah gets off the Pegasus)
Jonah:Ariana,look at me.There's nothing to be ashamed of.Everyone is afraid of something.What matters is that if you have people that believe,then you can believe in yourself and conquer your fears.If Athena doesn't see that,who cares what she thinks.
Ariana:You think I can do this?
(Jonah says "Yes" with his head)
Ariana: ...I'll do it...
(Ariana stands up from the rock and goes to sit on the Pegasus)
(Jonah and Aaron go back to sit on the Pegasi)
Ellie:And...Go!
(Everyone starts flying on the Pegasi)
(Ariana starts screaming)
(The Pegasi go up into the sky and above the clouds)
(Ariana continues screaming)
Jonah:Ariana!
(Jonah gets closer to Ariana with his Pegasus)
Jonah:Take my hand!
(Ariana turns to Jonah)
Jonah:(riding on his Pegasus)Trust me
Ariana:(riding on her Pegasus)...
(Ariana slowly grabs Jonah's hand)
(Some clouds get into Aaron's head while riding his Pegasus,forming a funny hat)
(Ellie starts laughing)
(Then,some clouds get into Ellie's mouth,forming a beard)
(Aaron starts laughing)

(Later)
(Jonah,Ellie,Ariana and Aaron continue flying across the sky on the Pegasi)
(Aaron looks down)
Aaron:(looking down/riding on his Pegasus)Look!
Ariana:(riding on his Pegasus)That's the St.Helena Cathedral!We must be on Montana!
(Ariana's Pegasus starts shaking)
Ellie:It's okay,Ariana.The Pegasi are just getting tired.Let's find a place to camp for the night and then resume till tomorrow.
(Everyone starts descending from the sky on their Pegasi)
(The Pegasi land on the woods)
(Everyone gets off the Pegasi)
Ellie:Ariana,you and your twin bro go to prepare the camp and set a route plan to Tomorrow morning.Me and Jonah we'll look for wood for the campfire.
Aaron:On it
Jonah: ...
Ariana:Everything Okay,Jonah?
Jonah:There's something I need to tell you,guys.Back in Charlottesville,I had a dream,but it wasn't quite a dream,it felt like a real moment of something that happened or something that was going to happen.
Ellie Bolt:It's okay,Jonah.It is normal for Half-Bloods to have these kind of dreams.They're usually helpful on quests.
Ariana:What did you say exactly?
Jonah:I saw Percy,he was following us back in Long Island.He was captured by Prometheus so we can "help" him.
Aaron:(sarcastic)Great,just what we needed,hostage situation.
Ellie:Prometheus thinks that we will help him if he keeps Percy.Why?
Ariana:Maybe he thinks that we are the key to free his brother from the prison
Aaron:But how?We don't even know how to opened it.
Ellie:Let's think about it tomorrow.We can come up with a plan to save Percy without risking the entire world.
(Ariana and Aaron start putting on the camp together)
Ellie:(to Jonah)Let's go

(Jonah goes into the woods)
Jonah:Ellie?Are you here?
(Suddenly,Jonah sees something hiding in the shadows)
(Prometheus appears from the shadows)
Jonah:You again?
Prometheus:I'm surprised that you have managed to come this far,kid.You really are willing to risk your friends' lives,do you?
Jonah:That's not true.We are a team.We all take care of each other.It's something you wouldn't understand.
Prometheus:Of course,I understand.I don't need a vision to know that Percy is a better father figure than your own dad.Know that you see your friends as a 2nd family.Trust me when I tell you that you'll lead your friends to their dooms and you don't want That,do you?...Especially For Ellie...
Jonah:Ellie?What about her?What are you talking about?
Prometheus:I'm afraid that's a question only she can answer
(Prometheus leaves)

Ellie:(voice)Jonah?Are you here?

Jonah:I'm coming!Ellie!
Jonah: ...
(Jonah leaves)
