Diary of Margot

Aboard The Princess Andromeda

"I care. I always care. That's my problem"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was my first night on The Princess Andromeda, I was with Chris on the back deck of the boat; And for the first time in months, I felt good, I mean being with my brothers. As I say, Hermes sticks together right ? I guess I should I felt a little bad about leaving camp or kind of betraying Clarisse and Annabeth but I wasn't and God, it felt good. Aboard, they were some others half blood I knew from camp, like Ethan Nakamura, a son of Nemesis, he used to train a lot with Luke so it made sense that he choses his side, I mean I'm not going to lie, he thinks that the Olympians are ungrateful persons as they don't really respect the minor Gods like his mother. We eventually set sail after few hours and I didn't have a clue where we were going but was too tired to ask. So, I went to sleep and for the first I could really enjoy my night.
But I think the Gods didn't want me to have one complete night in my life because in the middle of the night, I got awoken by Chris because I don't know who needed a hand. So I went and everything got worse.

Annabeth' s POV

I had just heard Percy yelling for help but when we found him, it was alright and apparently never scream for help. But, one thing got my attention, the travel bags Percy had in front of him. Percy explains the conversation with Hermes, and I was thinking about how unfair this visit was for Margot and Luke. But we didn't have much time, we had to go on the quest as the harpies had just found our traces. Without thinking twice, or maybe just thinking about what are we going to do with Tyson (that ended up coming with us, sadly), we went closer to the water. I had no clue how to reach that boat but Percy said Hermes told him, that he's dad was going to help us. That's how we ended on seahorses. Quickly, we reached the boat, The Princess Andromeda.

When we finally made our way on the boat, we found the atmosphere very weird and all that weirdest was explained to us the day after. We were so tired that we ended up falling asleep in one of the cabins. But our awakening was pretty brutal when we heard the intercom talking about a gutting course. So, we made our way out of the cabin, and surprisingly, there were dozens of people outside but something was still feeling off. It was like everyone was in a sort of trance. And then we heard voices who were sounding like snake. We had to make our way out of here and quickly. And then, we heard a voice I knew a little too well, Luke. I volunteered to go first with my invisibility cap and then I heard a second voice that I knew, Chris Rodriguez, a guy from the Hermes cabin.

But nothing could top the moment Luke captured us. What I saw, was above everything I could imagine, the monster behind Luke was nothing compared to the person standing next to him. Margot. How can she betray me like this, she was like a sister, we had sworn to always be family when they found me and now, I was standing in front of them. As long as I remembered Margot was in camp yesterday. And I had found an explication of why the ship was so close to New York; Margot had just joined them. Luke was bragging about his mission and his allies. But when Percy accused Luke to had poisoned Thalia's tree, I was in disbelief, she had saved our lives. Thalia died so, Luke, Margot and I could live. And apparently, I wasn't the only one shocked by this revelation.

Margot's POV

What I just learn make me so pissed at Luke, I couldn't believe Luke had poison Thalia's tree. Thalia is the only reason we are alive, and I though, I don't know, that Luke actually loved her and cared about her. And here he was, thinking she would have been on our side, maybe I knew we were wrong, but I truly wanted to believe Luke, he always did everything for me, saved me more times than I could count and above gave up on his freedom when he took me away from home. But Annabeth couldn't spoke about dishonoring Thalia when she is siding with the only reason Thalia is not here, I thought she didn't like Tyson but here she was coming on our boat with him. When Luke mentioned Thalia, I could see on Percy face that he wasn't understanding everything, I mean he wasn't there, he didn't see what we saw. But the thing that really capture my attention was when Luke mentions he had a spy inside of Camp Half-Blood. How did he never mention it to me, who was it, I mean, was it someone close to me, to us or someone I hated. I mean, he could have told me, I'm his sister and long time ago, he swore to never hide anything from me. And yet, he had betrayed me twice in less than a year.
