5, The Oracle and Rachel Go RGB

Percy

I've only seen Nico's Coco Puffs on Iris messages, never in real life, so seeing them were quite surprising.

"What do you mean, you think.?" Sophie asked.

"I'm just saying," Nico shrugged. "I'm still new to this, sometimes - when I asked them to - they attack, but most of the time, they're my personal little demons that can scare the living daylights out of people."

"Yeah, Tam would totally love this guy." Keefe said edging closer.

"Can you somehow control the stuff in my body?"

"No. I can only, travel by shadows and raise the dead - by which I mean that raising the skeletons out of the ground and making them somehow alive. Percy can control the liquids in one's body." Nico looked bored at that question.

"What about you?" Will asked. "What can you do?"

"Well, I can levitate, moves objects with my mind, regulate my body temperature, speak any language, copy anyone's voice, command people with my voice and feel people's emotions." Keefe smiled innocently.

Mental note, don't underestimate elves.

"That is totally not fair. All we got was a couple of powers." Leo pouted.

"Not to mention the fact that all elves are born with some sorta power." Elwin added.

"You think mine's a lot?" Keefe smirked. "Foster here can teleport, read minds, heal minds, inflict emotions on people, speak-"

"That's enough." Sophie clamped Keefe's mouth shut, quickly blushing afterwards.

Fitz rolled his eyes at the two.

"Now that the gang's here, what about saying our goodbyes and getting back to camp, we can bring more supplies like that." Piper suggested.

"But Nico can't-"

"Biana said that there are some crystals that can take us back home." Piper cut Will off.

"Actually, no. Bronte ordered some technopaths to make specific crystals for you guys." Elwin said. "We only made a small batch, so keep them safe." He gave us a white pearl box endorsed with jewels.

"What's inside?" I asked.

"Have a look."

We opened the box and inside was a handful of small rocks, peachy in colour and pearlescent.

"What are these?" Piper asked.

"Leaping crystals. Lift them up to catch the light, and you'll be teleported back to your home. Just think of where you want to go and it'll take you there." A man explained it, suddenly appearing in the hallway. I think his name was Magnate Leto.

"Who are you?" Will asked.

"You may know me as Mr Forkle, but for now, I am Magnate Leto." Magnate Leto said with a hint of a smile on his face.

Will snorted.

"What?"

"Sorry, it's just, my grandmother's name is Leto." His lips were quivering like he was trying so hard to hold in a laugh. Nico have him a quick peck on the lips to stifle the quivering and elbowed him after.

"Well, are you ready for the light leaping?"

"Yeah, I think so." Annabeth replied, holding up her hand with a nexus.

"Okay, so you're going to need to lift this stone up into the light and think of where you want to go. Take these with you." Magnate Leto handed us each a stone, which we threaded through our camp necklaces.
