Chapter 11

Calista's P.O.V.

"And so I came to you so I wouldn't get in as much trouble."

I had finished healing him during the story so I was just sitting on my bed. "Wow. Well thanks for telling me."

"No problem. So are you going to tell me why you aren't in the meeting?" Caught in the act. Why does he have to be a child of Athena?

"Umm... well...."

Avira looked around my room and saw it splashed with water. "Iris message?"

"Yeah. It never works though. I need to be more specific and I don't have specifics on where he is at."

"Aren't twins supposed to have some freaky connection thing?"

"What freaky connection thing?"

"I don't know. I just read that somewhere. Like they can send thought to each other."

"Don't you think I have tried that?"

"Well have you tried to do it where you and Percy have a connection?"

Thank the gods I'm friends with a genius! I run out of the cabin and head to the lake. A connection between Percy and I is through our father. The water! Avira calls out behind me, "where are you going?"

"To the lake!" When I get to the lake I don't stop running. I run straight into the water and I feel that power of the water surround me.

'Percy?' I think through the water.

'Am I still going crazy?'

'Percy? Is that you?'

'Of course it's me! I'm talking to myself!'

'Thank the gods! It's your sister Calista! And you are probably no more crazy than you were before.'

'Calista?'

'Yeah?'

'How are you in my head?'

'I'm in the water using our freaky twin connection thingy.'

'I didn't know we had one.'

'Where are you!!'

'Aw. Has my little sister been missing her older brother?'

'No' I scoff in my head. 'And I'm only 3minutes younger than you!'

I hear him laughing in my head. 'How is Annabeth?'

'Are you trying to dodge my question?'

'No. I'm just trying to find out how my girlfriend is.'

'She hates you right now for not contacting us. And I'm mad at you also!'

'Well I'm sorry! I lost my memory and I only remembered your guy's names. I didn't remember anything else.'

'Oh... That is not a very good excuse!'

His laugh rings through my head again and I smile to myself. I have missed him and I'm still going to miss him because he isn't here with me right now.

'I know I'll try to come up with a better one when I see you again. But I have to go now. I'll talk to you later baby sis.'

'No Percy don't go!' My smile fades and a frantic feeling comes over me. I can't lose him again.

'Im always going to be here Calista! And we will see each other again. Your big brother will take care of you!'

'You are only older by 3minutes!' The smile comes back on my face and he ends the "call" with an "I'll see you later."

I spend a few more minutes under water with a smile on my face still. Then I swim back to the surface. I pull myself out of the water still dry and run to find Annabeth. Laughing I run into her cabin and pull her up from her chair. "Why are you so happy?"

"I just talked to Percy!"

Her face picks up at match mine. "How? Is he alright? Did he ask about me?"

Jumping up and down I reply "Yeah he did!"

She finally pulled me down to sit on her bed. "Tell me how." I settle down enough to tell her our conversation.

Her face brightens and  she fills me in on what I missed at the meeting. "So Percy is at the roman camp?"

"Yeah. And Leo is going to build a ship to take us to Greece."

"So I'm still not going to see him until he fulfills the next big prophecy?"

"You can come with us to pick up the Romans but no I don't think you are." My face falls but she grabs my chin so I look her in the eyes. "But Percy is alright. That's all that matters right now. Right?"

"Yeah. And now I have a way to bother him whenever I want!"
