When I felt the prophecy coming, I knew there was something wrong. I couldn't quite place it, but there was something different with this one. When the spirit of Delphi took over me, it felt weird.
Three demigods shall take a quest
Leading them to the goddess in the west
Two magicians and another demigod
Shall accompany them and without a flaw
Together they must work to fix the veil
Lest all the world is doomed to fail
Deaths in battle will come and go
But pantheons together must vanquish the Shadow.
When I came to my senses, Will was holding me steady. Everyone was shocked- that was a normal thing to see when I just spouted a new prophecy. Before anyone could speak, girls in silver parkas emerged from the trees behind the campfire. The girl in the lead, Thalia, went right in front and looked at everyone before speaking to Chiron.
"Chiron, we have a problem," she said.
"I think that's already obvious, isn't it? The Mist is missing!" Leo said, emerging from behind Calypso and tinkering with his toolbelt.
"Yes, but there's something just as bad as that. With the Mist gone, Olympus and the two camps have been compromised. We are obvious and clear in the eyes of the mortals. It's just the shields keeping them out. You have to see what they're currently doing after seeing Olympus on top of the Empire State Building," Thalia answered. The children of Iris made a rainbow (I still do not know how they can do that at night) and Chiron threw a drachma to it, asking to look at Olympus from below. The scene that appeared surprised all of us.
Mortals were crowded around the building, trying to get a good look at the hulk of a city looming over them. Many of them had their phones out, taking pictures and videos and posting them to who knows where. There were choppers and planes flying near it, but when one gets too close the shields of Olympus fire up and they hit an invisible barrier.
"I think the only reason they haven't started using brute force against it yet is that there are too many mortals near the area. we need to act fast before they do anything else," Thalia broke the silence that followed us seeing the IM.
"Then we'll go with the quest. Lou, you'll go on this quest. As per the prophecy, you take two companions," Chiron said.
"What about the two magicians and the other demigod?" Someone yelled
"Who are those others? What other pantheons?" someone from the Hephaestus cabin asked.
"It's them, isn't it? Egyptians. Norse. Mayan, all the other mythological pantheons. They're real?" Somone piped up, and I recognized him as Malcolm, Annabeth's brother. Annabeth answered him.
"Yes, they're all real, just like the Greeks and Romans are. They're still alive," Annabeth said. The campfire turned a deep shade of magenta, like the campers wanted to have outbursts but were stopping themselves. The news didn't really bother me. I've seen visions of them before. I don't tell anyone but Chiron, but I've seen the magicians and the Norse.
"Then give us proof!" An Ares kid yelled.
"You want proof? Percy and I met two magicians before. Carter and Sadie Kane. The Egyptians live in Brooklyn, and they have powerful magic. I have a cousin who is a Norse demigod. You want more proof?" Annabeth raised her voice above the uneasy crowd.
"Stop this, we need to work together if we want to bring back Hecate," Calypso said.
"Let's go back to our original question. Lou, who will you take with you?" Chiron said.
"I'll take Cecil and Will," Lou Ellen said. I suddenly felt something, like a prophecy is going to happen. How can this happen? I've just spouted a prophecy! Before I could do anything, the green mist started pouring from my body and I felt the Oracle take over me. This time, it felt natural and normal.
Five are to go east to the land beyond the gods
To battle for the future, against all odds
The chained goddess, two are to free
While fate befouls the other three
Myths and mortals together shall fight
Or lose the war, no hope in sight
And for the second time that day, I fainted.
A/N: I know it's a teeny bit late but I forgot to update yesterday because I was busy watching SPN, if you know what I mean.
