Thalia was still recovering. I can't blame her because she was a Freaking tree for six years. She wasn't in the infirmary anymore, but sometimes she'd have her tree moments. Like when she's thinking she's as still as a tree and stuff like that.

"Annabeth! I still can't believe I was a tree!"she smiled." Also, have you seen Luke? I just realized I haven't seen him since I was turned into a tree. I've heard him though..."

"I haven't seen him in a bit." I admitted thinking about how Luke is helping Kronos. I didn't really want to tell her though.

"I asked the Hermes' cabin leaders and they said you would tell me."

I took a deep breath."Luke hasn't been at camp for two years."

Thalia frowned"he died?"

"No." I tried not to clam up.

"What happened?" She prodded.

"You know how your tree got poisoned by a minion of Kronos and Percy and I had to get the Golden Fleece to save the camp and blah,blah,blah?"

"Yeah. The minion was super twisted by Kronos and stole my dad's lightning bolt."

"That's where Luke is." I told her.

"You mean Luke the twisted guy or our Luke?" Thalia asked.

"They're the same people. Luke got bitter and after awhile he was manipulated and joined the dark side."

Thalia gasped"but Luke never joined the dark side in Star Wars! Not even for cookies! Why would our Luke do that?"

"He said that he thought the gods were using us. That you would agree with him, and wanted to make a new world because this one has flaws. But Kronos doesn't build, he only years down. Time doesn't either, so those of us who know what's right stay on the right side. Not that many Athena demigods switched sides." I said sadly.

Thalia gave me a wistful smile." Why are you telling me this? How are you sure that I won't go and join Luke?" She asked.

"You are smart,loyal, and trustworthy. I know you would make the right choice." I said.

"Real reason." She asked.

"You and Percy are so much alike it's creepy. Percy would never join Luke, even though he was once his friend. So I know you wouldn't. He has almost all the same traits as you." I confided."and the first thing."

"Mmhmm, sure Annie." Thalia sarcastically agreed.

I sighed"can you not call me Annie?" I asked giving it one more shot.

"Come on Annie, I know you love it." She teased.

"I give up. Why do have to be so stubborn?" I wondered.

"Because I am, smarty pants. Oh, now I want smarties." Well that's ADHD for you.

"Annie,do you know where some smarties are?" Thalia asked again.

"Not really Thals." I said giving her a nickname for revenge. It actually seemed to remind her of something pleasant.

"What's with the nickname?" She asked.

"Revenge. Oh, I should call you gra-" she stopped me by putting her hand over my mouth.

"Never speak of that word again." Thalia glared at me.

"Fine it looks like Thalia has no Grace. I won't speak of it again your Grace." I joked, and Thalia couldn't resist laughing.

"Stop it or I'll Chase you!"

"Nice." I congratulated.

"I didn't mean to do that!" She protested.

I winked at her"Sure you didn't."

"I told you what Thalia and I talked about. Can I leave?" I asked the boys, who had taken me captive.

Jason smirked."I think I called her Thals when I was little. That's probably why she liked it."

I nodded" that makes sense. Now can I leave?" Jason,Percy,and Leo nodded."thank you!"
