I the same dream as I did last time about when I ask Mere out she dies except this time it was worse I don't know why but it just felt worse. I woke up everybody was still asleep I walked out to to the hall and down the stairs "Hello," a lady said "Hello," I replied and walked outside and went to the bus stop and got out at the Shedd Aquarium I walked over to the tree and there was a Phoenix but it was the Phoenix I know it was smaller I walked over to it "What do you want," the bird said but it sounded like a girl. "I know your brother," "He wants to see you," I said "You know Hermi," she said suddenly sounded interested "No but I do know Phoenix," I replied "Ugh he still uses that name and not the one he was given," she said sighing. "What's your name?" I asked her "Lucile," she said "Oh and tell my brother too meet me here and say the world sea he'll know what I mean," Lucile said she flew off.
I walked to the bus stop the others would be awake when I get back. I walked threw the lobby to the elevator and went to floor five I opened the door and there was Caden,Carter,and Mere with worried looks on there faces "Where were you?!" she asked "I went to the Shedd Aquarium and talked to Phoenix sister," I said "You did!?" "What did she say?" he asked "She said meet her at the aquarium and told me to tell you sea and, that your name is really Hermi," I said. "Yes thats my name sadly," Hermi said Carter and Caden were trying not to laugh it was kinda funny. "Well what dose "Sea" mean to you," Mere asked "It means that I have to transform to get to where she's going to be," Hermi said "Time to head then," I said. We got to the bus stop Phoenix was in a cage and must have been a chicken through the mist because the driver asked if we were going to the egg factory. We were about five minutes away when a three old ladies got on that looked a little sketchy its when they went to sit down a saw they all had wing "Furies," I whispered to Mere who was sitting next to me "I know just don't engage till we get away from the crowd," Mere said then she turned around and spread the word to Caden and Carter.
We got off the bus and walked around the corner nobody else was going and the old ladies followed us. We got around the corner and instantly I drew a arrow,Mere amid her prism,Caden and Carter drew their swords the old ladies came around the corner and I was right they transformed into Furies. "Hello again," she said in unison "I don't remember you being this creepy," Caden said "I don't remember you being that annoying," the Fury in the middle said she pulled out her teeth and hissed at us "Attack!" she screamed. They all flew I managed to hit one in the leg she fell and I drew my short sword and charged at her she dodged and scratched me in the shoulder I turned around to strike again but she few up and kicked me in the face I fell back. I can't die this way not from a fury she raised her claws when fire when through her forehead and she whimpered then fell beside me "Thanks Phoenix," I said "No Problem," he said smiling. Caden and the other fury were in a heated battled and Mere dodged claws of her fury opponent then Carter slashed her from behind then we all watched Caden and the fury fight he dodged then slashed but she dodged then fire shot her and she fell and screamed in anger/pain we all looked at Phoenix "Sorry it was taking to long," he said. The aquarium was in sight we as we walked along the harbor "I must change now," Phoenix said he held up his wings and jumped into the water we waited then a dolphin exploded out of the water "Like me now," Phoenix said.
"I'll get in the aquarium you guys just get to the dolphin watching place," Phoenix said then he went underwater. We walked up to the aquarium "Wait we need tickets!" Mere said "Covered," Caden said he had five tickets and the extra one was for Rose but she was asleep "Were did you get those?" asked Carter "Form me," A tall man said his presences was electrifying wait. "Zeus?" I asked the man "Yes young one it is I the great and powerful Zeus," he said flexing. "Thank you grandfather," Caden said bowing "Your welcome but remember our deal," Zeus said then he snapped and vanished "What deal?" I asked him "I have to find and kill the cursed child before he kills and Olympian," Caden said looking at the ground "Wait the cursed child had the power of killing a god," Mere said she looked around at all of us "Don't even think that way," Carter said "None of us would do it we all know that but someone could try to use our power," . We took the tickets and walked in silence up to the line luckily Zeus gave us V.I.P tickets to skip lines which was life saving considering the lines went around the corner of building. "May I see your tickets?" the woman at the stand asked us we gave her our tickets and she scanned them then said "You can enter," she motioned her hand to walk around the corner. We were walking and passed some trees then we got to entrance and I took one step in the place and I took my breath away it was beautiful here there was a large aquarium in the center and halls that lead to other places surrounded it. We walked down to the atrium and looked at it for like ten minutes then realized we had to meet Phoenix.
