Images flashed through my mind, like I was watching a slid show on the back of my eyelids. It was fast and blurry and very confusing. I saw random people riding the Subway in New York. I saw a group of young kids at a play ground, picking on a small child. I saw a loan kid, no older than 10 running for her life down a back alley with some kind of huge dog chasing after her. I wanted to help her, but I was stuck, I wasn't even sure if this was real or not and couldn't do anything. My mind slid through more images of random people and crowds, but mostly young children.
The video feed flickered and then slowed down. I saw Sally and my dad. They sat at the dinner table in my apartment. They both clutched mugs of tea, there was a shimmery watery image of Chiron hovering over a steaming tea kettle. Percy had told me it was called an Iris message. Sally and Paul looked stressed and worried. I couldn't hear what Chiron was saying. Sally took a shuddering breath and Dad put his arm around her and pulled her close and muttered something to her and then looked up at the Iris message of Chiron and said something else. The image disappeared.
The image changed and now I saw a kid with a black threadbare cloth around his one eye. He was tall with thick black hair, he looked pale and very angry. He was yelling at someone. Again I couldn't hear what he was saying. He was standing in a back alley. He yelled something and then threw something. He stood taking deep breaths. I watched as he spun around towards the brick wall, he slipped behind the big gross garbage dumpster. That's when I saw the blue glowing ∆. He pressed his hand over the sign and the wall split. I watched horrified as he stood staring down into the darkness. He shook his head and slipped into the darkness of the Labyrinth. The wall slid shut behind him and then the image changed.
I saw Grover and Tyson. They were running down a hall made of mud and grass, tree roots grew above them and tried to snage and ensure them. Tyson just ripped at them, snapping them like they were made of nothing more then paper.
They faded and I saw camp again.
I saw Selina Beauregard, Charlie Beckendorf and Lee Fletcher. They were all armed in battle gear. The three of them must be in watch right now. They had a tent set up not too far away, there were all kinds of traps and trip wires set up. Looked like the Hephaestus cabin was busy, all kind of sharpen sticks were dug into the dirt pointing at the entrance. I watched as Kayla, Clarisse and another kid with grey eyes walk up.
Kayla said something and Lee nodded. Beckendorf took his helmet off and also nodded. The three who were on guard clapped hands with the new group and the new group took up their watches.
The image changed yet again. A kid sat alone wrapped in darkness and shadow, at first I thought it was the same one eyed kid, but when he looked up he shook his shaggy black hair out of his eyes. He had two eyes. And they seemed to look right at me. He narrowed his eyes.
"Who are you?" He hissed.
It was like when I was in Hephaestus workshop, I had no idea what was happening. But somehow this young kid could see me.
"I asked you a question, spirit. I didn't summon you!"
"I...I don't know what's going on!" I stammered, "but I'm definitely not a spirit!"
"Your not a ghost and your not dead." The kid said, his dark eyes were narrowed in suspicion.
"Definitely not. I'm...umm sleeping. I think. In an Ikea somewhere that's connected to a Labyrinth..?"
"Your in the Labyrinth?" He asked, I could tell he was surprised.
"Uhh, not at the moment. But we were...were in a quest....we were with-"
"Percy Jackson. I know."
"What? How? Who are you?"
"I- I meet him at- I ran into him. Your his sister, aren't you. Eleanora."
