I found out who Annabeth is. Percy's girlfriend. Child of Athena.
No wonder Leo needs to warn Percy.
I asked Leo about quests, and he explained.
"Quests. Send someone out to complete a task. Either Chiron or the gods allow one. Then you get a prophecy, from our Oracle. Then you get sent out. You can choose at least 2 others to go with you. You either fail or you succeed. Failing means that you most likely die"
So happy.
The activites whizzed by, and soon enough I was walking from dinner to Cabin 20. I remembered what mom had said again.
'You can't trust all gems'
Maybe that was a warning. A warning that someone can't be trusted.
But I dont understand the gem part.
I lay in bed, tossing and turning, until I finally fall asleep.
My dream was disturbing, yet slightly informing.
I was in a dark, dingy area. I heard voices in the shadows, but they were so faint I couldn't reconise them. Someone banged against there bars, and screamed.
"SHUT UP!" Someone screamed. I wanted to see who it was, but they stayed in the shadows.
"WELL GET OUT OF HERE!" Someone yelled back.
"Don't worry. It will happen. As soon as they come" She snarls. Oh gods. I have a feeling that's not a good thing.
The dream changed.
A girl, again in the dark, was speaking. It seemed she was speaking to herself, but another voice was answering her.
"Anything new, girl?" A voice asks. It was the same voice as the lady in the previous dream.
"One. But it's the people your awaiting." The girl replies. I swear I hear excitment ripppling through the room.
"You are not joking, right?" The voice asks.
"No."
"This is going better than I thought." The voice cackles.
And I awake. Lou is knocking on my door.
"Wake up, sleepyhead. It's already 9:00."

I was going to my final class: Sword Training. When I got there, I spotted Percy. He was arguing with Chiron about something. He spotted us, and Chiron cantered away. I notice red around Percy's eyes, like he's been crying.
"Hi guys. All of you guys continue. I was just told to train Jasmine some skills" He says. I follow Percy, the clashing of swords behind me.
"Leo told you?" I ask, as Moonshadow appears in my hands. He nods.
"Yeah. Up nearly all night" He says. "Now, sword time."
He teaches me some useful skills, like disarming with a dagger and sword, where to strike when someone has armour, and how do dodge certian weapons. We also sparred a couple times, and I even beat Percy once.
Once. And he was going easy.
I was having so much fun I hardly notice the horn blow for dinner. Percy doesn't notice it either, until everyone starts to leave. His smile fades as he thinks of sitting by himself.
"C'mon, Kelpy. I'll sit with you."
It was awsome. And I'm not talking about the food.
Percy was funny, cool, and calm. I could see why Annabeth liked him. He cracked jokes, I cracked jokes, and we laughed at each other. He was a great brother. I wave at Lou, and she waves back. I think she was wondering where I was.
After an excellent dinner, it was a campfire again. I thought they didn't have them this often. I sat next to Leo
"Attention everyone!" Chiron announced. Everyone went silent as they sat down.
"Now, you might be wondering why you're all here, Am I right?" Chiron asks. Everyone nods.
"I have called you all here because I am sure that you are aware of some... missing campers." He states. I hear a sniff, and some people patting others on the back.
"So. I am going to assign a quest. A quest to find these campers. The camper who will be leading it will be..." He says. Everyone waits, and Leo is grinning.
"Jasmine Dragonite."
"What?!" Leo and me ask at the same time, his grin dropping.
"I asked for this quest in the first place!" Leo states.
"I've hardly spent a week here!" I shout. Chiron holds up his hand, and silences the area.
"I know, Mr.Valdez, that you originally asked for this quest. And I know, Miss.Dragonite, that you have spent very little time here at Camp. But a certian god or goddess asked for you specificly to lead this quest. And I have watched you over the past days, and you have copped extremly well, even under pressure. I have a feeling you'll have this all under control."
A god or goddess believes that I can do this quest? Really? It must be my mother.
"So. Presenting our Oracle, Rachel Elizabeth Dare!" Chiron says. Some people clap, and some say "Hi Rachel!"
Rachel steps out of the shadows, and the first thing I notice is here flaming red hair. Her hair is long, choppy, and is very wavy. She has freckles that decorate her face, and her face is very pale. She's wearing a silver shawl, a maroon jacket, jeans, and white sneakers. They look good on her.
"Hi." She says. Everyone looks at me.
"Well?" Drew asks, impatienly.
"Well what?"
"Ask for a prophecy, duh" Drew states. Some people snicker.
"Umm. Can I have a prophecy for my quest?" I ask Rachel, extremly confused.
Her eyes glow green, and she starts to spew green mist. Some people rush foward with a stoll, and they ease her down in it. Then she speaks in a chilling voice:
"West will travel a group of three,
To find the loved one's and set them free.
The eyes of golden will fill the one's of might,
The one who'll ride to safty one night,
Red will fill the soul of those love,
But the flame will still help defeat the one.
The magic and water will repair the one's spell,
But beware of the gem that made couples in cells"
She returns to normal, and I gape at her. One, HOW THE HADES DID SHE DO THAT?!
Second, That's two magic people that have mentioned a gem. One was a godess, one a oracle. It has to be important.
I realise I was still gaping, and everyone was staring at me. I closed my mouth, but Drew and her gang were already giggling. I glared at them, and they shut there mouths. Chiron looks at me, like a random girl spews out green mist everyday.
"So, who will yo-"
"Percy and Leo"
Everyone looks at me.
"Your reasonings?" Chiron asked.
"The flame will even help defeat the one, thats Leo. The magic and water will repair the one's spell, that's Percy. It could also be me, but I have a feeling that we need an experianced quester. Percy is pretty experianced."
"Well, if the others accept, you'll be on your way tomorrow. Any thought of where your heading?" Chiron asks.
"West? Im pretty sure the prophecy said to head west" I say.
"Excellent!" Chiron says, clapping his hands. "You will leave tommorow morning"
"Also, something to wonder about when we're gone." I start.
"What?" Chiron asked.
"There's a spy here, in Camp. A enemy spy."
