Three hours. That’s how long Kaysen had slept the night before, and it was effecting her mood.

She had stayed up until midnight watching Halloween and Christmas movies on Netflix. She read a book between then and the time River, Hazel, and Frank came by, which was about three in the morning. She fell asleep on the floor in front of the television, since Frank and Hazel got dibs on the couch, and River got the comfy chair.

Then, Sylvia had to go to school, and woke all eight other people sleeping in the house at six in the morning.

“So, where you from?” Percy asked the group of four eating breakfast in the living room.

“England,” the three eldest answered, going back to their cereal.

“How’s she your daughter?” Annabeth asked, leaning against the kitchen counter alongside her husband, texting someone. Their daughter had long since left for her preschool, having been dropped off by her dad.

“Plastic surgery.”

Amy and Kaysen held back laughs at Rory’s answer. “Surgery” was a big exaggeration. It was more like “Roman-ization.”

“What brings you to the good old U.S.A.?” Piper asked, taking the milk out of the fridge.

“We’re travelers,” Kaysen answered with an innocent smile. She, Frank, Hazel, Jason, Percy, and Annabeth were waiting on waffles. Nothing screams breakfast like burnt waffles!

Several minutes passed by, the members of the seven that were present making small talk with the time travelers.

“Annabeth!” someone yelled from the sink, startling Percy, who was nearest to the sink.

“Oceana?” Percy asked, staring into the sink. “What are you doing in my kitchen sink?”

“Holding a war council with your wife,” was the yeller’s simple answer. “Now can we hold it? Everyone in the council is waiting!”

“Hello!” Kaysen said, popping her head into view of the war council. “Are you the war council? Good, because, believe it or not, there is going to be a war. A big one.”

“War?” someone asked dreamily. Oceana rolled her eyes at the son of Hypnos, Noah Johnson. He always dozes off, and only catches a word or two.

“Yes, Noah. Now go back to sleep.” The girl looking at Oceana reminded her of someone, but she just couldn’t place where. And where did she know Noah’s name?

“War against who?” Sienna asked. She sat up at the mention of war, of course, considering as her father was Mars. She was one of three Roman demigods on the war council, and she took her job very seriously.

“Sienna, Chase, Sepia, I know you’re going to hate this,” the girl began, her head momentarily getting out of view of the council. “But, we’re going up against Rome.”

“I’ll do that,” Sienna remarked, leaning back in her chair.

Oceana’s eyes lit up with excitement. She suddenly remembered when she had seen that girl before. On a police scan being run by Camp Jupiter. She was the Amber Alert girl!

“And why should we trust someone that is being hunted by them?” Oceana asked. Kaysen swore, if she didn’t know that she was already the daughter of Triton, she would have been a daughter of Athena from just the way she could calculate things.

“Because I’m the Doctor.” was Kaysen’s reply.

“So, what makes you think we even stand a chance against Rome?” the daughter of Athena asked. Kaysen couldn’t remember her name, for whatever reason. Guess not studying something for nearly a hundred years can do that to a guy.

“Egypt!” Percy suddenly yelled.

“Egypt?” Oceana asked, giving a confused look. “They don’t exist.”

“They exist,” this so called “Doctor” claimed.

“And what makes you say they exist?” Oceana laughed, everyone silent in the room except her and Kaysen.

“Just come over here, okay? We need you here by this time next week. Understand?”

“Crystal.”

Sorry guys for this chapter. I had a three day school week, so all I was thinking about was how lame my weekend was. Seriously, when I was asked what I did this weekend, I said “I got my flu shot an hour ago.” MOST INTERESTING THING I DID!!
