Out of nowhere, Percy and Annabeth came into view with their swords in hand. By now, they were surrounded by several empousia, apparently they knew that Camp Half Blood would send demigods to recruit Angel. Angel studied the scene, thinking about grabbing her sword, but she knew that there was still too many of them. It was four demigods against about twenty empousia. They basically disregarded Angel, because they knew Percy, Annabeth, and Nico were the real threats. As they circled around the trio, like predators approaching on their prey, Angel reached for her bag, she knew what she had to do. Out of her bag, she found a pencil and sketchpad. They were most likely going to think that Angel was crazy, but she did have a plan, so she started drawing like crazy.
"Angel, what are you doing, run!" Nico shouted to her as he held up his sword. He summoned some skeletons and shouted orders at them as they started to attack the empousia. It didn't do much good though, every one he killed, two more seemed to appear.
"I know what I'm doing!" She yelled back at him. Angel was drawing as fast as she could, the pencil flying across the paper.
"Run! Go and save yourself!" Percy urged as he used a big wave to keep the empousia away from them.
"Annabeth, quick get her out of here!" Annabeth cut down a few empousia and made her way over to Angel who was still drawing.
"C'mon Angel, we have to get out of here, you may have thought these girls were your friends but they're very dangerous, we have to get you out of here," Annabeth explained to Angel, trying to keep calm.
"I know they're dangerous obviously, are you sure I'm not one of them too?! I do have the same eyes as them," Angel said angrily, her piercing red irises looking at Annabeth. Angel hated it when past demigods she met had her mistaken for an empousia.
"We know you're one of us and we can have time to explain this all later but right now we have to go!" Annabeth demanded pulling on Angel's arm.
Oh great, here we go again, Angel thought as Annabeth touched her. Soon after that, she plunged into a vision.
It was a nice and sunny day, the birds were chirping and everything seemed right in the world, but Angel knew better. She watched as Annabeth came into view, she was outside, with Percy, they were having a nice little picnic date. They sat near the edge of the ocean, as the baby blue waves crashed against the flawless shore and seagulls flew above them. They were in about their mid fourties, which was fairly good since most demigods die young, no explanation needed. Suddenly, out in the distance, an army of monsters approached the couple. They were caught off guard, and Annabeth was without a weapon. The two tried to flee, but the monsters surrounded them, there were too many to defeat. Percy sent huge waves towards the monsters, watching the water wash them away, but it didn't stop the inevitable from happening. One of the giants picked up Annabeth and stabbed her in the heart. They threw her in the opposite direction of the beach, and just like that, she was gone.
Angel snapped out of her vision, trying to finish her drawing. With one final move of the pencil, she said in relief,
"there." She pointed to Percy and Nico as Annabeth and Angel watch them take down the multitude of empousia with ease. Once they are done, Annabeth was shocked.
"How did you- how?" She asked.
Without saying another word, Angel throws her sketchbook onto the ground and the image: Percy and Nico standing among the remains of the empousia.
