The campers chattered amongst themselves as Rachel snapped out of a trance. YiXuan helped her off the stool and sat with her on the bleachers, staring at the flames that changed colour and height in accordance to the room. Before, they were high and bright golden, burning happily. Now, they shrank back, emitting a greyish hue. A daughter? The dead? There seemed to be more to this prophecy than the plain front. Chiron clopped forward and addressed the unsettled crowd.

"Campers, I ask that you may not be distressed. The prophecy, although speaking of a possible incoming battle, will not be put into action until-" He snuck a glance at Rachel, but an anxious gaze full of secrets returned."-by the end of the month." The campers went into a wild frenzy, the mood flames burning a garish shade of red-purple, conveying the anger and desperation of the crowd.

"But we just fought a war! Can't we take a break?"

"Can we just wait until the next month passes? We cannot afford to lose any more people!"

"This is absurd! How dare-"

"Silence!" A fissure cracked at the base of the bleachers, which caused campers to scramble backwards. The cause seemed to come from the dark-clothed teen, who radiated darkness, who also seemed to be the person who yelled. He was one of the boys who helped Rachel. The other male with sun-kissed hair put a reassuring hand on the other's shoulder, an expression of frustration and worry on his face.

Looking at the boy, Kristie felt a faint pull towards the shadows. She stretched a hand outwards and the shadows bent towards her. She internally grumbled. She just couldn't get enough surprises that day. Simultaneously, the campers' eyes wandered over to her. As if she hadn't had enough attention already.

Chiron trotted over to her and pulled her aside, her shooting Kenna an apologetic glance. Chiron looked over her, before giving her a warm smile. "Not only Hecate? This is a little different. Will you please close your eyes and try to feel the elements? I wish to double-check my suspicions." She frowned at his odd request, but nonetheless obeyed. Soon enough, droplets of glass solidified in front of her, shadows danced and wind buffeted her hair. She opened her eyes and looked at Chiron. He seemed to be deep in thought, before he led her back to the campfire and calling for Kenna, a boy named Nico, Leo, Percy, a certain Piper and an Annabeth to follow him to the Big House. A girl with blonde hair and stormy grey eyes stepped out, the boy who shouted and made the fissure with the shadows did the same. A girl with chocolate hair and multicoloured eyes followed suit, as well as Kenna, Leo and Percy. The grey-eyed girl introduced herself as Annabeth, the one with multi-coloured eyes was Piper, and the male teen was named Nico.

"I believe besides being a daughter, Kristie is a legacy of the Big Three, some way or another. She can solidify water, control shadows and moving air currents." Percy and Annabeth widened their eyes, before explaining to the others that a legacy was a person who was a descendant of a god, in this case, three major gods. Nico turned to her and spoke. "We need to start training immediately tomorrow." The others nodded and agreed to help Nico and Percy, while they were training her powers, to train her in weapons training.

As they headed back, a booming voice sounded, "YOU HAVE FINALLY COME,  MY DAUGHTER."

A 1.8 (6 foot) tall man with battle hardened scars on his body, a reddish armour and several weapons strapped on appeared in the Amphitheatre. The campers all knelt down and Chiron spoke, "Lord Ares."
