Cassidy had the weirdest dreams.. Her eyes opened to a nature landscape. Beautiful Sakura trees blowing in the wind. Their pink petals landing across the green grass fields. Rivers flowing around her, like an island.

Cassidy walked to the middle of the island, spinning in all directions. She was absolutely mesmerized at the sight. Until Someone came into view, someone she didn't recognize.

They had flowing brunette hair. Sky-blue eyes that matched the rivers around us. Her aesthetic was girl boss, literally. A long business coat hanging down over a tank top, jeans going up to her belly button. Classic black heels going up to about 3 inches.

Cassidy couldn't help but watch. She.. was beautiful.

The women turned to face Cassidy, "They rely on the Descendant. A dangerous game you're father is playing."

My eyebrows furrowed in confusion. I tried to speak but my voice wouldn't work.

"You're strong. Stronger then all combined. The Light will take risks, in a result. You must listen to the voice, Cassidy. Or they will perish. Your father shouldn't have done this forsaken deed." Her voice was full of urgency

I found my voice, "Wait! Who are you? Please answer me!" I tried to reach out to her.

"We have no time! Your father made a big mistake thinking that they wouldn't mess with your existence, please, listen to the vo—"

Cassidy woke to Annabeth, nudging her awake. I groaned, "What, Chase.."

Annabeth had her hands on my shoulders, "Wake up." I opened my eyes to realize I wasn't in the Apollo cabin. I was in the Farmhouse. "How.."

Annabeth put a finger on my lips. "Get dressed, get showered, Percy's estimated to wake soon."

I nodded. Annabeth got up, and left the room.

I went to take a shower

"Careful" Cassidy motioned over to Percy.

Percy, after a hard struggle, Cassidy had managed to move Percy outside to the porch of the Farmhouse.

Cassidy, Annabeth, Chiron, and Mr. D had been on the other edge of the porch. Grover was over with Percy when he woke. Cassidy had really good hearing, so she could practically hear Percy stirring.

Grover and Percy began to talk, Cassidy wasn't in the mood to listen. After something- or something of whoever 'they', definitely scared the women, of whoever she was.

Cassidy, Chiron, and Mr. D had been playing pinochle. We had to play solos- even though it wasn't even possible to play solos in a team game- basically because Annabeth wouldn't play.

"Mr. Brunner!" Percy called, Chiron turning to Percy, smiling gently.

"Ah, good, Percy," he said "Now we have four for pinochle." Chiron offered Percy a chair. He was in the direct opposite side of the table from me.

Mr. D spoke up, with his common bloodshot eyes. "Oh, I suppose I must say it. Welcome to Camp Half-Blood. There. Now, don't expect me to be glad to see you."

'As if your ever glad.' I thought to myself. Rolling my eyes.

Percy scooted closer to Chiron, further away from Mr. D, "Uh, thanks."

Percy seemed to get lost in thought before Chiron spoke, "Annabeth?" He called to her.

She came forward, Chiron introduced her to Percy, "This young lady nursed you back to health, Percy. Annabeth, my dear, why don't you go check on Percy's bunk? We'll be putting him in cabin eleven for now."
