About twenty minutes after the epic battle, I went to dinner. Because I am the champion I get a whole table where me and my friends can sit by ourselves. That meant Brittany, Jacob, and Brian had to sit with people they bullied. Now that they sat with everyone, people would pick on them, like throwing endless amounts of food at them. Now I understand why she bullied everyone. It was because as champion you have a lot of power over what people do.

After dinner I told Artemis everything that I have been keeping from everyone. (I didn’t tell my trio of friends cause they still ditch me.) She had an interesting reaction. “What do you mean war is coming? Why didn’t you tell me. When did you see this man. Who is he. Magicians can’t enter here.” is what Artemis said without letting me get a word in.

“I wanted to tell you at the right time. Apparently I should have told you earlier. “ I said.

“Of course you should have dumb butt!”

“well I  told you now.”

“Now isn't good enough. If I would have known I wouldn’t have let you become champion.”

“Why not?”

“Gosh you are stupid aren’t you. Because now if there is a quest you will have to go, which means the prophecy is coming true.”

“Well maybe it isn’t me that is the half archangel the prophecy talks about maybe there is another one.”

“No there isn’t. You killed the great beast and is the champion and is being the future, it is you.”

“Well if it is then at least I have you to back me up.”

“Maybe but even if you have me and george back you up we are still not enough to beat a powerful enemy that the prophecy talks about.”

“What about Nate and Sabin? Why didn’t you mention them?”

“Because they are horrible fighters and George is crazy good but not Brittany good.”

“I see.”

“You need to let Brittney be the champion so the prophecy won't come true.”

“I can not do that.”

“Yes, you can it is not that hard too.”

“No I can’t. You saw all of those happy faces when I became champion, I can’t let them turn sad again. “

“You can, it will save your life.”

“It never says I will die and the prophecy will come true no matter what. I mean look at the story of Oedipus, no matter how hard they fought the future the more it came true.”

“That was just a story.”

“Maybe but it shows what can happen if you try to fight the future.”

“Maybe but this is dangerous you know. The coffin that is locked up reminds me of only one thing.”

“What” I inquired.

“The coffin of the destroyer.”

“Who?”

“Oh my gosh, we just talked about this in class today. Its Abaddon.”

“Who?”

“You really need to pay attention. He is the guy who controls the locust monsters.”

“Oh, that guy” I said

“Yeah that guy.”

“Hey whatever happens promise me you will be safe and take me with you..” she said. I then looked at her for a minute and I could see sadness in her eyes.

“I promise.” I said Then she hugged me and started to cry a lot.
