Khinei's POV
I don't know what's so special about the blue glowing pearl in Medusa's ring but i have a feeling it will answer most of my questions so i took it.
"What's that?" Jr asked.
"I don't know..." I said examining the pearl in my hand.
Percy smirked and said, "Why did you take it?"
"I have a feeling..." i replied unsure of myself.
Then a voice of a man said, "You kids there! What are you doing! Holy gods! you broke Odyseus' statue?" a man who i'm guessing is police as he looks down at the mess we made luckily because of the mist (the mist is the one which covers human eyes from the truth) the man didn't see the dead body of Medussa lying headlessly on the floor
I smiled guiltily at the chubby policeman and locked eyes with Percy and Jr. We nodded and made a run towards the exit.
After hiding in the bushes for some time the cops starts to lessen in number and soon we went out of hiding.
"Where should we go?" Jr asked as he tries to restrain Cerby from running off and chasing a butterfly.
"If we're lucky maybe they still haven't sent out word about the psycho kids who destroyed marble statues and cut off Medusa's head so we could still return to our Hotel room and gather our things.
They nodded and we started walking trying to keep a low profile so cops wouldn't notice us. The whole walk i was thinking how the small pearl I was holding could answer my questions, i just have a ... feeling. Maybe i am going insane.
(skip walk and some other boring things)
"Guys, i'm done packing seeing you two are both slowpokes and sleep will come to me first before you two finish packing i'm going to the balcony for some fresh air.
They both just nodded and proceeded to whatever they were doing. When i went out it was already dark but i have to go out because:
1.) I have to think what is the meaning of my dream last night.
2.) I don't wanna sleep for i'll surely have another dream.
And...
3.) I have to figure out what this pearl does.
Seeing i couldn't possibly have any clue to what my dreams could possibly mean I sat down on the floor and settle for examining the pearl.
Since it is dark the blue pearl glowed brighter. But except for its glowing nothing seems to be useful in providing a clue.
"What are you supposed to do?" i stupidly asked the pearl. Yeah, i know it wouldn't reply to me and not that i was expecting one but a familiar voice suddenly came from behind and said, "Why did you call Khinei? Miss me?" Hermes said.
I turned around to face him my face red with anger or blush i don't know!
"I didn't call you!" i said quite loudly fortunately Percy and Jr hadn't heard me.
He stared at the blue pearl i was holding as if he caught me stealing a candy from a baby. "Really? That pearl is use to summon a god."
"Oh." i said. Yeah i know great verbal skills. I have so many things i wanted to say but he interrupted by saying, "Anyway, guess i have to..."
"Have to what?" i asked kinda irritated.
"You'll know." he said then grabbed my arm. I start to pull away until light swallowed me i closed my eyes and when i opened them i...
Found my self in olympus the throne room of the gods but it is empty of people or gods and goddesses i mean.
"You're at the throne room of the gods." Hermes said his voice quite unreadable.
"Pretty obvious." i said sarcastically which he just smirked at.
"Wait here." Hermes said and started walking away.
seeing i have to 'wait' I looked around and my eyes stopped at two familiar throne. One is from my dream last night of the woman sitting there giving birth to her baby that looks a lot like me. The other throne that looks familiar ... well i don't know why it looks familiar to be honest.
My vision starts to fog and i remembered the dream i had at the camp. My head starts to spin and i would have fell at the marble floor if Hermes hadn't caught me.
"Are you all right Khinei?" his voice and face full of worry.
I ignored the question and pointed at the throne from my dreams, "Who sits there?"
"It's rude to point." he said.
I laugh a little and said, "This coming from the god of thieves?"
He laughed a little too but i said, "Come on, answer."
"Hera." he said his tone unreadable again.
"I'm guessing that's where her daughter sits." i said pointing to the other familiar throne.
Hermes eyes widen as if i said something horrible, "Now are YOU all right?"
"How did you?" he said his voice as if it was breaking.
"I don't know I just ... have a feeling." i said pacing around since i'm so confuse then i told him about my dreams and the voice in my head.
He looked at me his face poker and after i finished telling him he ... well he HUGGED ME and almost KISSED me!
He clutch my face and said, "I'm so glad i found you Arzeya!"
"Wait a minute whose Arzeya?" i asked really really confused.
"She's the girl who looks a lot like you that you've always been dreaming about. She's a daughter of Hera that is until everyone forgot about her and i don't know why. I tried to make everyone remember but they just couldn't. luckily i convinced Apollo and he released her from tartarus and now i'm guessing she's stuck inside of you." he said very excited while still clutching my face.
"So ... you're telling me that i'm a ... goddess??" i asked quite out of breath though i am not runnning.
"Yes." he nods.
"That's insane ." i said not convinced.
"We better keep you from Hera before she-" he starts to say but before he could finished Hera appeared.
Hermes gave me a bag then the lightness once again swallowed me the last thing i saw before i got back to earth is Hera's face looking dangerously right at me...
