The Drama of a Teenage Demigod (Percy Jackson FanFic)

Chapter 20 (The Hunters Have Arrived)

*Camp Half-Blood*

Annabeth paced back and forth in the foyer of the big house as Leo fiddled with a rubix cube.

"Are you sure they'll know where to look?" Annabeth asked Leo her face wrinkled with stress.

"They're the hunters of Artemis I think they'll know where to find her" Leo said solving the rubix cube for about the 17th time.

"I know but Elise has been gone for a couple days now and I'm worried that the reason that she's not coming home isn't because she doesn't want to....." Annabeth said trailing off.

Leo's hands stopped frantically solving the rubix cube and he froze.

"Nico would've told us if she was dead" Leo said trying to prove Annabeth wrong.

Annabeth looked at Leo and gave him a hesitant look.

"We haven't heard from Nico in a few days as well" Annabeth said to Leo.

Leo slammed the cube down on the table next to him and shook his head.

"Stop trying to think logically about this situation because all your logic is doing is throwing everything into Chaos!" Leo shouted at Annabeth.

Annabeth looked a little taken aback by his comment. But she still shook her head.

"Someone has to think logically about the situation. If we let ourselves be blinded by emotions then we will never be able to fix the problem" Annabeth said to Leo.

Leo was about to say more but just then a knock came from the front door.

Annabeth walked over to the door and opened it.

The person standing there in their combat boots and signature smirk smiled when Annabeth opened the door.

"Heard you needed some hunters?"

*Elise's POV*

Demigod dreams are probably worse than nightmares.

I mean think about it.

They're as scary as nightmares and you wake up screaming and in a pool of sweat like you do with a nightmare.

But the nice thing about nightmares is that they aren't real.

Wish I could say the same about demigod dreams.

I found myself in a field.

The grass was nice and green and there were flowers of all different colors and species. A nice checkered blanket lay on the ground and a beautiful tea set out.

"Oh won't you sit down dear?" The familiar enchanting voice spoke.

I looked down to find the goddess of love lying on the blanket with a tea sandwich in hand.

"Why did you bring me here?" I asked Aphrodite.

"Oh we can talk about that later" Aphrodite said taking a bite of the sandwich.

I stood their looking down at the goddess and she patted the blanket next to her.

"Come sit or all the pastries will dry out" She said motioning to the tray of pastries in front of her.

I hesitantly say down next to the goddess and waited for her to say more.

"Well go on and eat. You must be starving from all the running around you've been doing" Aphrodite said with a knowing smirk.

I froze and looked away.

"Is that what you came to talk to me about?" I asked her.

She nodded.
