"NO," NATALIA ANSWERED, shaking her head at the redhead as Annabeth ran down the hall to get a med kit. "You couldn't have killed her."

"I'm sorry, but who are you?" Jason asked, staring at Rachel.

"My name's Rachel," she responded. "I'm the Oracle here at Camp Half-Blood. Basically, I tell the future and give Prophecies."

Natalia kneeled down next to Piper and noticed her chest rise and fall. "She's still breathing."

"We've got to heal her," Jason announced. "There's a way, right?"

Chiron kneeled down next to Natalia, placing a hand on Piper's forehead and grimacing. "Her mind is in a fragile state. Rachel, what happened?"

"I wish I knew," she said. "As soon as I got to Camp, I had a premonition about Hera's Cabin. I went inside. Annabeth and Piper came in while I was there. We talked, and then — I just blanked out. Annabeth said I spoke in a different voice."

Natalia's eyebrows knit together in confusion as she stood up, crossing her arms. "Like a Prophecy?"

"No. The spirit of Delphi comes from within. I know how that feels. This was like long distance, a power trying to speak through me."

Annabeth then ran in, clutching a leather pouch and kneeling next to the unconscious girl. "Chiron, what happened back there — I've never seen anything like it. I've heard Rachel's Prophecy voice. This was different. She sounded like an older woman. She grabbed Piper's shoulders and told her—"

"To free her from a prison?" Jason asked.

Natalia stiffened, and Annabeth glanced up at her nervously. She looked down at her blonde friend with a knowing expression.

"Natalia?" Chiron asked. "What's wrong?"

"U-Uh, I'm sorry about not telling you this Chiron, but before Annabeth, Butch, and I left, I had this . . . dream. I was standing in the dark, and all of the sudden a woman's voice came and told me that I needed to free her. This could be the same thing that happened to Piper."

Chiron made a three-fingered gesture over his heart; a ward to fend off evil.

"Still, Jason, how did you know that?" Annabeth asked.
