*Someone needs our Help*

☆♡°•Autumn's P.O.V☆♡°•

Riding in Apollo's car was kind of relaxing. Listening to music and staring out the window. But my mind keeps boggling me. I swear I've seen Apollo before. Wearing a waiter's outfit, holding a tray.

I turn towards Apollo. "You were the waiter from the Chinese Buffet, who gave me the fortune cookie!"

"W-what? N-no you must be out of your mind." Apollo gripped the steering wheel tightly. Keeping his eyes on the sky.

"Your lying aren't you?" I snap.

"Y-yes," his words faltered. "I was the waiter who gave you the fortune cookie. But on the plus side without it you wouldn't have made it to that camp.

"I didn't belive that fortune cookie crap. Until Kasidee got captured." I said.

"Hey it took me a while to write those tiny words on that mini strip of paper!" He exclaimed.

"Okay...okay," I didn't know what else to say to him. 'Thank you?', 'You looked great as a waiter?' "Umm.....Thanks."

Apollo looked a little bit stunned that I had responded to him so nicely. "My pleasure." He flashed his pearly whites again.

In the backseat Nicholas starts to squirm. Beads of sweat traveled down his forehead. Instantly out of nowhere he started screaming. Tears escaped his eyes.

I unbunckled my self and a reached over to Nick.

"Wake up!" I shake him.

Immediately his brown eyes open and he pulled me close to him. Which Apollo did not like one bit.

"Avery your alive! I missed you so much." He said into my hair.

I was stunned. I couldn't even find the words to describe what was going on.

"Nicholas?" I ask. "Who is Avery?"

Nick held onto my shoulders and examined me. His eyes look into mine."Oh Gods......"

"Hey! No swearing in this car." Apollo called out. "It's very offensive, especially when you say it in front of me."

Nick let's go of me. "I'm so sorry Autumn. I didn't know w-what I was doing."

"It's okay." I give him a small smile.

"First of all, I did not like what had just happened. Second of all, can somebody please tell me why that Raven is flying around my car, in circles?" Apollo demanded.

"A Raven?" I sit back in the passengers seat and spot the black raven. "We've seen that Raven before. At the Supermarket in Pennsylvania."

The raven held a white rag in its beak.

"I think it's trying to say it surrenders?" Nick guessed.

"No dip, Sherlock." Apollo murmured.

"Let it in." I spoke.

"Why?" Nick questioned.

"For once I agree with the thief." Shook his head. "The bird would just crap all over my perfectly good leather seats."

"Just let her in." I say firmly.

"Okay. But your paying for the damage." Apollo reassured.

Apollo opened up the sun roof and the raven flew in. She transformed into one of the Empousia from Pennsylvania. Annie. She was still wearing the purple, Panthers cheerleaders outfit. Annie's never ending sea of Red hair rested opun her shoulders. She shoved the white rag in her pocket.

Nick scooted closer to the window. "Why does she have to sit next to me?"

Apollo attention went on Annie. "Hey there-" He bit his lip, and caught a glimpse of her legs. First on the prothestic, robotic leg and then on her donkey leg. "Nevermind." He focused back on driving.

"Now we let you in. What do you want?" I inquired.

Annie twiddled her fingers. "I need your help."

The car was silent. I face the backseat and motion Annie to continue.

"My master, Erebus son of Nyx, he has your friend and sister have been relocated in the cavern that motals call Gardner cave."

"I know where that is." Apollo interupted. "That's located in Crawford state park, just 11 miles north of Metaline.

I gave him the 'shut up' look. Then returned my attention on Annie.

"How do you know?"

"I've seen them travel there. With their weapons and everything. And hide in the rocks of the mountain. Waiting for you to come. I flew away to find you, to warn you. And also I need one favor from you."

"What is the favor?" I ask again.

"I need you to set me free. I've made a big mistake joining Erebus's army. If it wasn't for my stupid choices, Vivian and Patricia would still be here. So i dont blame you guys for killing them. They are technically back at home in Tartarus. To set me free just say these words, Écho edó apó to sýnolo sas doreán . Pígaine kai na zísoun eiriniká .

Was that in greek? I follow her request. "Écho edó apó to sýnolo sas doreán. Pígaine kai na zísoun eiriniká. (Translation: I here by set you free. Go on and live in peace.)

Annie breathed with delight. As if a weight came off of her shoulders. "Thank you!" She cheered. "For setting me free, I will ask my grandmother, Hecate, to grant you one wish. If I were you I would use it to get back home after you find your friend and sister."

"Thanks we'll need it." Nick nods.

She transformed back into a Raven and flew up and out of the sun roof.

"How far are we from Crawford State park?" I ask Apollo.

"About....34 minutes away." He answered.

"Yay! More waiting." Nick said sarcastically.
