"A half-blood of the eldest dogs..."

"Er, Percy?" Cassie interrupted. "I thinks it's gods?"

"Oh, right," He said "A half-blood of the eldest gods ...
shall reach seventeen against all odds..."

Percy hesitated and continued. "Late child of desser-desire will the doors of olympus pry.
The curse of the dol- gold will the daughter finallify."

"To see the world in endless sleep,
The hero's soul, cursed blade shall reap."

"Percy," Chiron urged. "Read the rest."

"A single choice shall ... shall end his days.
Olympus to per-pursue-"

"Preserve," Annabeth said gently. "It means to save."

"I know what it means," he grumbled. "Olympus to preserve or raze."

The room was silent. Finally Connor said, "Raise is good, isn't it?"

"Not raise," Silena said. Her voice was hollow, but Cassie was startled to hear her speak at all. "R-a-z-e means destroy."

"Obliterate," Annabeth said. "Annihilate. Turn to rubble."

"Thanks Annie," Cassie said, "we've got the point."

"Just saying." Clarified the blonde.

"Thanks," answered dryly Percy.

Chiron closed his eyes as if he were saying a prayer. In horse form, his head almost brushed the lights in the rec room. "You see now, Percy, why we thought it best not to tell you the whole prophecy. You've had enough on your shoulders-"

"Without realizing I was going to die in the end anyway?" He said. "Yeah, I get it."

"You're not going to die," Cassie snapped, "the Prophecy didn't mention you exactly. Besides, how are you going to take that so called decision if you're dead." Cassie shook her head. "You're not dying."

Some of them looked at her with pity, then flickered their eyes at Percy, fear, pity, sadness.

Cassie could feel it all, it was floating around the room- kind of like bubbles Cassie could see. But she could specially see the sharp tangible pain that came from Silena's side of the room, but there was something else...

"Maybe we can stop it," Jake Mason offered, snapping Cassie out of her trance. "The hero's soul, cursed blade shall reap. Maybe we could find this cursed blade and destroy it. Sounds like Kronos's scythe, right?"
