The Chosen Demigods

Chapter 47

HEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHAT THE FRICKITY FRACK??? Last I checked, this story had like 6k views, which is amazing, but nOW It HAs LIkE 9000??? WHAT THE HECK??? I AM SO CONFUSED. 

But thank you so much! This week has been really annoying. I have this problem with my tooth that will require root canal treatment, (which I'm scared of) along with an infection and I might have to have a surgery done to remove a potential cause of the infection. (Which I am terrified of.)

I know people have much worse problems, and I'm acting like a whining baby, which I apologize for, but half my face is swelling and mum says I'll have to go to school, so yeah. BY THE WAY....

 SLIGHT TRIGGER WARNING! I've been reading a lot this week, and so many talented authors have horrible thoughts and harm themselves. One of my friends dabbles in minor self harm themselves. To all those people who might be struggling with mental health issues, I have no idea what you're going through, but I've seen so many amazing people on the internet who are willing to talk to you about it. Know that you are always loved, even if you can't see the people who love you. If you ever need help, there are countless places that you can get it. Don't listen to the horrid voices in your head, no matter how right you think they are. Because you are an amazing person, who may have made mistakes, but no matter who you are, your life is worth living. 

So, yeah. Sorry about the how long the authors note is, but I just felt it's an important thing to address. 

The last paragraph, not the earlier ones. The earlier one was me being pathetic.

Piper's POV

"Piper... Piper! PIPER!!!" My eyes shot open, and I saw Hazel's face looking down on me. "Come on, you're going to be late!"
"...What?" I said sitting up and yawning. Weak sunlight filtered through the windows, and I could see an inch of the lake out of one of them. With a jolt, I realised that our dorm was empty. I sniffed the air a few times, and was greeting by the smell of... pumpkin?

"Is it Halloween already?" I said looking at Hazel confused. She rolled her eyes. 
"Yes, it is, and you're late!" What did she mean la- HOLY HADES I WAS LATE!!!!

I yelped, and threw myself out of bed. I could here Hazel sigh as I threw the lid of my trunk open and desperatly rummaged threw it for a clean pair of socks.

"You know, if you had got a watch like I told you to, this wouldn't have happened?" I grunted. I mean, a watch would be useful, but I don't see how one that isn't electronic could help in this circumstance. A few minutes later, I was standing in front of Hazel, fully dressed and panting. 

The frizzy haired girl rolled her eyes at me, and walked toward the door.

"By the way, we aren't late. The others only just left for breakfast."
"HAZEL!"

I jogged to catch up to her and fell into step beside her on the staircase. 
"Why did you have to wake me up like that?" I asked her pouting. Hazel chuckled. 
"Nico and Will want to meet us in the entrance hall. Something about that book on dark magic." I groaned. 
"Great. Now I can't get mad at you for waking me up that way." Hazel laughter echoed down the wooden passageway. I had to smile. Her happiness was infectious. 

A few minutes later we were walking down the familiar corridor that lead to the entrance hall. The room had kind of become our un-official meeting place. We had met there when Hazel had a dream about the lockets, (Turns out they help us with our nightmares,) when I'd considered trying out for the Quidditch team, - I didn't end up doing it. We have to leave as soon as we destroyed the locket. -and the countless times we'd talked about contacting the gods. (We couldn't figure out a way.)
