A/n: Okay, so I really need to know if I should write the other side of these last few chapters in another story. If I do, this story might not last much longer, but if I don't than you may never figure out the other half. I really want your opinions, please! Now, into the chapter!

PoV:Annabeth

We landed at Havenfield. It was a little rough, considering that there were 5 people all trying to land at the same time. A weird, feather covered... thing screeched as we landed, and a group of horned pegasi flew over.

We were all standing when we hit the ground, but a few moments later Sophie dropped to her knees with her arms wrapped around herself.

"Foster, are you okay?" Keefe exclaimed worried.

"I'm fine." Sophie replied through gritted teeth.

"You're not fine, " I replied, taking off my cap as Keefe called for someone named Elwin.

Elwin came running out of Havenfield apparently having been prepared for this. He knelt in front of Sophie. "Hey, can you look up at me, please?" When Sophie did, he gasped at her frail form, " What have you been eating the past few weeks?! "

"Uh... Nothing?" She tried with a small smile.

Elwin shook his head, " You would've died of you hadn't eaten anything. Maybe they shoved it in your mouth, or something? "

"Well, in full honesty, I don't remember eating at all. I don't know why, but I get the feeling in forgetting things."

I didn't quite understand why that meant anything, but the elves all either gasped or had a look of surprise on their faces. I decided not to think about it since a strange... figure was walking towards us, along with two elves following him.

When the elves saw Sophie they ran up and hugged her, both of them crouching in the dirt. They kept whispering things to her and she kept smiling.

"Elwin?" Sophie asked when her parents finally let go, "How many elixers will it be this time?"

" Not that many. Only about 10 or 11. " Elwin replied.

My eyes met Leo's. He had the same look of confusion as I probably did. "Hold on, only 10 or 11? How is that a small amount?" I asked.

" Well, I have had to give Sophie about 40 elixers every morning and night for about a month. 11 is a much more preferred number. " Elwin explained.

I shuddered. It wasn't that I had anything against it, I just hated the idea of having to drink 40 whole bottles of medicine every morning. Honestly, that could kill you, but that was beside the point.

"Unfortunately," Elwin continued, " Most of them are still in the Healing Center at FoxFire. We'll have to go there. "

Sophie nodded, "Dad, can you get Flori?" Grady nodded and walked away. As soon as he was gone, Keefe scooped Sophie off the ground bridal style, "Woah, Keefe, what? I can walk on my own!"

Keefe smirked, " I know, but this is easier than you tripping everywhere. Besides, you're enjoying it! "

"No I'm not," Sophie grumbled , rolling her eyes. She failed to hide the light pink blush that formed in her cheeks, though, causing Keefe to grin even more.

When Grady came back he mumbled something under his breath and looked like he was going to tell something, "Wait, dad! " Sophie exclaimed, "He's just helping me out! Don't yell at him!"

Grady mumbled something again before he pulled out a pathfinder. He turned the crystal to the right position before waiting for Flori, whoever that was.
