Pyro had been going off the walls crazy, and mom, Starling and I have been trying for months to get him to calm down.
"Lily, if you're tired, you can stop for today" Starling said.
"What? No! I want to help!" I protested.
"You were up all night helping out, go take a break, I'd prefer if you got some rest, okay?" My mom said.
"Alright, fine, I'll go see Samantha heard from Lee" I suggested.
"And then get some sleep" mom added.
"And then get some sleep" I repeated.I found Sam in the Poseidon cabin with Erika, Dad, Veronica, and Miley. They had Callum, Chris, and Johnathan on Iris Message.
"I think it's time for me to tell you what really happened when I was crystallized" Erika said.
"Hey guys" I said, "what's going on?"
Dad nearly jumped out of his skin.
"What the Hades! Seriously?" He said.
Veronica snickered.
"What is your deal today?" She asked.
"I don't know!" He said throwing his hands back.
"Callum and the guys found something weird, it's about Mom's crystal" Miley said, smiling.
"Smiley Miley! Are you feeling better?" I asked.
"A bit, yeah" she admitted.
"So, what were you saying, Erika?" John asked.
She sighed.
"When I was crystallized, I was in a coma....for two weeks" she started.
"What?!" Miley said.
"When I woke up, I was confused, I was watching three different things, it was like watching security footage from three cameras at different angles"
"The three crystals," Veronica said, "you were watching from all three of them"
"But you said..."
"I know what I said, let me explain" she interrupted, "the day you and your brother turned eight, something happened"
"What?" I asked.
"I can't explain it really, I guess it's how I can understand dragons now, there were these two dragons, both were....elemental"
"Elemental?" John asked, confused.
"One was fire, one was ice" Erika explained, "they hunted me for three years, until they finally got me, long story short, I was frozen in ice for four years before you freed me"
"When you came out of the water you were cold" Miley remembered.
"That was why" I added.
"Yeah" Erika said.
"So, these dragons, you think they're up to something, and you have something to do with it" Veronica summed up.
"Yeah, that's right" she answered.
"So what's the connection between you and those dragons?" John asked.Meghan's POV
Well that ended badly.
While Gaea let Tara go, she kept me captive. Trapped on the wall covered in vines.
"When I have your brother," Gaea started, "my plan will be just about ready"
"Just about?" I asked sternly, "what more could you need?!"
"You really haven't put it together yet have you?" She asked.
"Well, you haven't given me much to go on" I snarked.
"Since you won't be alive long enough to escape, allow me to oblige," Gaea said, "you and your brother are merely the hosts, I need three others to finish the job, a maiden of fire, a maiden of ice, and a sorceress to carry out the spell"
When Chris and I were young, Tara told us all about her friends. So I knew that Wisty was on that list for the last one, but it took me a bit to realize that the maiden of fire was Asphy. So who was the maiden of ice?
"I'm happy to help, Gaea" said a voice. A cold, hate-filled voice. A woman with dark hair and snow-white skin appeared out of the shadows.
"I appreciate it," Gaea said, "Khione"
Khione. Why did that name sound familiar?
"Okay, but why didn't you just use Tara as your 'maiden of fire'? She's a child of Hephaestus" I asked.
"Because," Gaea said, "Tara is supposed to be dead, her spirit is fragil, unlike the child, Asphette Gardens. Wisty Freeman is also an intelligible choice to make the spell happen"
"You're forgetting that those two are both good people, they'd never sell out the lives of two others willingly!" I scolded.
" 'willingly,' yes, you're right" Gaea said.
