Alex POV

I felt the hardness and coldness of the round stones in my feet. It's a good sensation.

I loved being here. There's nothing like being home. And the Isar river was the best place at home (together with all the football-related things and my own house, of course!).

But, I had to admit that it wasn't the first time that the Isar becomes a meeting place between me and...

"Lupa, you're already here" I said, looking to the silver wolf who had just appeared.

"Yes, my child" she said. I really hated being called 'child', I'm already 16! "I've called you for something important"

"I know" I said "You wouldn't call me if it wasn't important. It isn't your style"

"Of course. You're one of the most powerful demigods I've ever trained together..."

"Together with the child of the sky, I already know it" I cut her off. She had said this so many times.

"Yes and I wouldn't call you if it wasn't necessary but I feel it is" she said

I touched my black hair "And what's it? Worse than Mnemosyne?"

"Don't really know. Nothing's sure but we fear something dangerous is coming. I need you to come to the US, to help the Seven with this new danger" she explained

"The US?" I asked. I never liked America.

"Yeah, I know you don't really like America but that's how it is. You have to go to New York and then, head to Camp Half-Blood" she ended

"Camp Half-Blood? What's that?" I asked

"It's a training camp for demigods in Long Island. Greek demigods" she said

"Greek? No way!" I said "You know..."

"They're different from Lucas and his group. They're not bad people and aren't always trying to kill Romans" she said

"Okay... I have to agree, want it or not, right?" I asked

"Yeah, you don't have a choice" she said "But don't worry, it'll be okay. But..."

"But what?" I said

"It'd be best if you hide you godly parentage. Unless you trust the Greeks enough" she said

"I like the idea" I nodded and was about to left "Who I have to talk to there?"

"Chiron, it's a centaur. You shouldn't have trouble finding him" she said

"Okay, something more?" I asked

"No. Si fortuna, my child" she mumbled and disappeared.

"Thanks" I mumbled.

US? Greeks? Okay, this is gonna be a good adventure...

Si fortuna = Have luck (Latin)
