The tears were already falling, like rain down a windowpane.
Clutching my tiny, leather-bound photo album in my left hand, I prepared myself to Shadow Travel away. My mind whirled like gears shifting, with emotions. So many conflicted emotions. I didn't want to decline Alex's offer to come with me and help. Believe me, I wanted him badly to come with me. But it was for the best, don't hate me. He couldn't get hurt because of me. I didn't want to hurt him.
A sleepy, drawling voice suddenly spoke to me. Poor Viola, poor, poor Viola. All alone, left out here to fend by yourself. Desperately searching for little Nico. Grieving over your sister's death. Ah..what was her name? Bianca..that's it. Yes, Bianca. She had to watch over Nico for two years. Do you know how much they missed you? How they longed for you? As days went by, they thought you left them for good. But they were too scared to talk to anyone about you, because you told them to never tell a soul about your goal. To find the answers. Oh Viola..ignorance is bliss. Have you ever heard that saying before? You should have stayed with them. And now because of you, Bianca is dead. Yes, dear. DEAD. You were dubious at first when you felt that, dark, dark feeling inside of you, whispering that your darling sister was dead. But you knew inside, that it was true. Poor Viola, your mother is dead. Maria di Angelo. Yes, she was a good mother I bet. She always sang in Italian for you at night, I believe. How sweet. But that hotel..struck by the Mighty God Zeus' lightning. How unfortunate. To tell you the truth, I was going to kill your mother anyway. But lucky for me, Zeus did the job for me. All just because of some prophecy. Poor Viola-
"JUST SHUT UP"I screamed. I had no idea where the sleepy, creepy voice was coming from. In my head, most likely. Maybe I was hallucinating. But no, it couldn't be just a hallucination. The voice was too real. And also, how did this Voice know so much about my past?! The tears were already falling, like rain down a windowpane."LEAVE ME ALONE!"
The dirt beneath me was swirling in circles, surrounding me. Dust clouded my vision. Everything was beginning to fade. I no longer could see anything but dirt and dust flying around me. And then I slipped away from consciousness and collapsed.

Can anyone guess who the SLEEPY voice was in this chapter? Anyone?
You guessed it. DIRT FACE. You all know how Gaea like, ruined a lot of the Seven's(As in, Percy Annabeth Piper Frank Leo Jason and Hazel)lives or provoked them a lot? Ex: Taunting and Provoking Leo, causing him to lose control and set the room his mom was in on fire. Always saying to Leo that he's the 7 wheel. Etc. Well, she's kind of doing that to Viola. I'm kind of thinking of adding a twist(You probably won't expect it unless I decide not to or change my mind) so bare with me!
