Jeanne's POV            

Oh my gods... James is here... Crikey... What should I do..? I must be dauntless at the moment right now.             

"So.... You heard everything about Apollo's prophecy which was passed down to my father?" I asked him with my eyes glaring at his.             

"Pretty much." he said with a smirk as he shrug.            

Knives are on my hand,  I'm ready to fight him.             

"I heard that you accuse me for being the traitor..." James said then I start to feel the water from the lake rise.            

"Aren't I right?" i asked. I didn't give him time to finish for I instantly charged at him. I threw knives at him but the water immediately blocked my attack. He noticed my weakness.            

"Jeanne, I don't want to fight you..." James said as he pushed the water away to the lake again. "I am no traitor than you expected. Your father means someone else I can assure you that!"              "Well.. I'll think again, and maybe this time I won't inflict much damage to you." I saw him get distracted and I managed to scratch his face with my knife.            

He flinched and jumped away. he controlled some of the water. I figured he was healing his injury but I didn't give him much time to do it I aim for another scratch and landed a big one on his arm.             I tackle him down, "Admit it! You're a traitor! Where is the real James?"            

"I am the real James!" he screamed back.            

"Liar." i smirked I was about to give him another wound when the ground started shaking.             "Jeanne! Why are you attacking James?" a familiar voice said from behind. I lowered my knife and turned around. It was Percy.             

"Percy!" I blushed a little but I looked away from him.             

"What in the name of my father Hades are you two doing?" Percy asked as he walks between us.              I could see James that he had finally gone out of the water. His injuried were fully healed. Darn his water healing powers...            

"I heard about Lord Apollo's prophecy which was passed down to my father," I told the truth, "It seems that one of us is a traitor..." Without knowing what's gonna happened next, I was slapped in the face.             

Not by Percy... but someone...                

Joan's POV            

"I heard about Lord Apollo's prophecy which was passed down to my father," I hear Jeanne say.              She talked with my father? When? Here?            

I looked at James who just healed himself from injuries. I look at the knife on my twins hands.             "It seems that one of us is a traitor..."            

Then all of the puzzle pieces seem to fit together...            

I went straight to my sister and slapped her.            

"Why did you even think for a second that James can be a traitor?" I asked slightly screaming. "What the Underworld has gotten into you?"            

I feel Elle, and Nic holding me back from delivering another slap at my sister's face.            

"That's enough, Joan!" Elle told me, "Jeanne must have been thinking too much lately, right?" Elle then looked at my sister's face. Her face was pale white. But the mark of where I slapped was still there.             

Serves her right.            

"Twins aren't supposed to fight!" Nic told me, "They share feelings so maybe..." Then I got angry. With all my anger, I withstanded them and I assaulted Jeanne.             

"Why you and not me!?" I yelled at her. "Why didn't father inform me about the prophecy? Why you only?" I was almost crying but then I received a gentle rub from my back.            

Jeanne... was hugging me...            

"I'm sorry..." She apologized, "I didn't know you had feelings for Ja-" I then smacked her in the head before she could finish the name 'James'.            

"Well... I didn't know you had feelings for Per-" She then smacked me in the head as well. She moved her head close to my face.             

"Don't you ever tell that to anybody, Joan..." She told me. I winked at her. "And so.. don't tell that to anybody as well, Jeanne" I winked at her.             

We both giggled.             

When we finally move on, I totally forgot about my father telling his prophecies to her.             

"So... what did my father told to your father, Jeanne?" I asked her. She took a deep breath and was about to say it when someone beat her to it.             

"The one we called a friend shall be a deceiver to all of us..." James said. He then glares at Jeanne and pointed her, "And sheaccuses me that I'm the traitor"            

"Well then do you have a better suggestion Waterboy?" she asked him. Here goes my sister again.             Before James could answer, "Where are Khinei and Jr?" Nic asked.
