The Fiery Tide

chapter 6

As we arrived on Olympus, I couldn't help but open my mouth in awe at the massive kingdom in the sky.

Immediately, I felt like touring round the kingdom but Annabeth insisted that we finish the quest as soon as possible.

We headed towards the throne room hoping to meet the gods there but on our way we were blocked by a woman, I recognized her from the dream I had, and I was busy staring until Grover pushed me and made sure I was bowing towards the woman.

Lady Hestia, said Annabeth, we are honored to be in your presence.
Rise children, said Hestia, hello Perseus, we meet again.

Uhm sorry lady Hestia but may I ask how you know me.

Let's all go to my palace, this isn't an appropriate place to talk. She flashed them to her palace,
Hestia's palace was huge and in the middle of it was a giant hearth.
Please Annabeth, Grover excuse us I want to talk to Perseus alone.

The next few minutes were full of shouting and disbelief.

So you're trying to say that, began Percy, is that I'm from the future.

Yes, sighed Hestia, that's what I've been trying to tell you for the last 15 minutes.

Okay, said Percy, so why don't I remember anything.

That would probably be because of the fates, stated Hestia; they took your memory.

And in my dream you tried to give them back to me, Percy replied
But how come you know so much about me, Percy continued.

When the fates took you back in time, your uncle Hades and I were sent back too, stated Hestia
But with your memories intact, finished Percy.

But why was I taken to the past, asked Percy

You were taken to the past because the gods and your friends betrayed you, said Hestia

Well, thank you for telling me everything, said Percy, I'm very grateful.

Now I believe its time to get back to your friends,they must have been waiting for a long time.

Okay, Percy said as he joined Grover and Annabeth at the table , whats the plan for this quest..
