Ariana

I'm still upset about Nico. I haven't seen him in forever but, it seemed like we would be good friends because of what happened that first day we met each other.

Just stop thinking about it Ariana.

I think to myself.

"Alrighty, who's ready to go to a casino?"

Percy asks us while we start walking to the big metal doors.

Nobody answers.

"Well then."

Says Percy,

"Nobody answered, because we have to be quiet, so shut up!"

Annabeth whispers to Percy and swats his arm.

"Well, okay the-"

"Shut up!"

We all whisper,

"Love you guys, too."

Instead of telling him to shut up,

I slap him on the face.

"Ow!"

"PERCY, SHUT UP!"

Percy finally shuts up and we start walking again towards the exit.

Thank the gods, we got out without Percy talking the whole time and without the Amazons finding us.

We get on Festus and flew in the air with no trouble.

"Something bad is going to happen."

I say when we all sit down on Festus,

"What? What makes you say that?"

Frank asks me, which, by the way, is the first time he's ever spoken to me.

"Because we got out and up in the air with no trouble. Something bad has to happen. It's basically how the world works."

I shrug and lean back on my hands.

"Y-you don't know that. That might not happen."

Leo stutters,

"Why did you stutter?"

"I don't know, it just happened. I'm going to go check on Festus. You guys should get some rest."

And we do. We fall asleep, and I have dreams where I have to shoot innocent people. Great.

•••

I wake up by Piper shaking me,

"ARIANA, WAKE UP!"

She yells,

"Geez, thank you. I've been yelling at you to get up for 10 minutes."

She says.

"Ha ha, glad to know I made you suffer."

"Love you too, Ariana."

I smile and stretch. We get up walk the long way to the Lotus Casino and when we enter the casino, the music shakes the floor.

"Look for somebody with anything red!"

Annabeth yells over the music. We all walk around looking for somebody with red. Hazel yells something that I came hear but go over to her just in case. She points over to a girl in the back, not speaking to anyone and standing there awkwardly, with a red sweatshirt on. It's weird because it's burning up in here. We walk over to her and tap her shoulder. she jumps and looks at us,

"Oh, um, hi!"

She that's to us. She has light brown hair and light blue eyes,

"Hi, we wondering if you knew anything about a trident? Poseidon's in particular, actually?"

Percy asks her,

"Well, you don't even know my name! My name is Emma and I know who you guys are, so save the introductions!"

We all look at each other, clearly confused.

"Uh, how exactly do you know who we are?"

I ask Emma.

"You'll see, follow me."

She leads us to the girls bathroom and Leo, Percy, and Frank are confused about why they get to be in the girls bathroom.

"Don't ask questions,"

Emma tells Leo when he opens his mouth to ask why they're in the girls bathroom.

"Just follow me."
