The Prophecy of Heroes; Just Us Mortals

Veronica

(If anyone is confused, go back to the first book, look at the last chapter, and you'll see what Gaea's plan was)

I woke up, gasping for air.
"Veronica? You okay?" Asked a voice. Was it.....Erika's? She came into the room.
"ERIKA!!!!" I jumped out of the bed I was in, and hugged my sister tightly.
"Whoa, you okay?" She asked.
"Better, with you here!" I told her.
"What are you talking about? I've always been here, did you have a nightmare last night?"
"Wait, you don't remember what happened at Camp Half-Blood?" I asked.
"What? No," she said,"But, I learned from last night, I'll listen"
"What happened last night?" I asked.
"You don't remember our fight last night? Lucky, never mind, just tell me what happened at this.....Camp Half-Blood" she replied.
I started with what happened to Mom, and how we didn't have anyone because our father is Neptune.
"The Roman sea God?" She asked,"that's our dad?"
"Yeah," I said,"but you haven't heard the worst"
I then told her how we were former servants of Gaea, and how she "took us in" when we were kids. I explained to her about the mission she had given me to kill Piper McLean, but how I'd only put her in a coma.
"That is a terrible thing to ask someone!" Erika claimed.
"I know" I replied.
Next, I explained how she got to camp, and when she accidentally fell in the lake, she was claimed, and people mistook it for Poseidon.
"The Greek sea God?" She asked.
"Yep!" I said.
Lastly, I told her how I got there, and then, I went straight into the quest we had to save the 7, and when Gaea pulled us in, then I told her how she made her kill me.
Erika gasped.
"Veronica, you know I would never do that!" She said, pulling me into a hug,"Well, your here now, so it was obviously a dream, okay?"
"That's the point! It wasn't a dream, Gaea's spell to make us mortal also brought me back!" I told her.
She sighed.
"Well, where's everyone else?" She asked,"The other people you mentioned?"
"I have no idea" I confessed.
"Well, I guess I'll know it when I see it, I'm going to Manhattan today to see Tori, and for your sake, I'll look around for them" she said.
Then she left the room.
"UGH!!!" I yelled. Why didn't she believe me??? She seemed so understanding while I was explaining! What happened?

••••••••••••••the next day•••••••••••••••

I decided to call Erika to see how she's doing. When Tori answered, she said.
"Hello?" She said.
"Hey, is this Tori Graham?" I asked.
"Yeah, who's this?" Tori asked.
"This is your cousin Veronica, I'm calling about Erika. Is she with you yet?" I said.
"Uh, yeah" she replied. Then she put Erika on the phone.
"Hello?" She said.
"Erika, you need to believe me! Gaea set us up! We have to find her!" I said.
"Okay, calm down, V" she said.
"I can't calm down when an evil Mother Earth is planning to attack us!" I complained.
"there is no evil Mother Earth coming to get you" she assured me.
"Are you even listening to yourself?" I asked,"you know I'm right!"
"alright, deep breaths" she said.
I sighed, it was no use trying to convince her.
"Fine" I said.
"are you calm now?"
"I guess"
"good, bye Veronica!" She said.
"Bye" I replied.
Then I had a thought, the spell only works on half-bloods, and there was one person I knew who wasn't one... Rachel Elizabeth Dare.
