((OH by the way, if you were interested in buying the second book in the Heroes of Olympus series, the website has a preview of the first chapter of The Son of Neptune. Here's the link if you'd like to read it. :D))

[kannagi]

(Yes!! Thank you C: I am reading it right now. It seemed like it took forever for him to get the book out T.T Do you read the Kane Series too?)

(Edit: Lol... that was... interesting :3 I feel so bad for Percy! 3= I haven't read the first book in a while to be honest, so I mostly forget what happened. But somehow Percy and Jason got mixed up? Jason = Roman and Percy = Greek. But how did they confuse them, and will both of them ever get their memory back?... o.o)

[ragemonster]

((I know right? AndI haven't read them, actually. Are they any good? Oh btw, in case you missed it, I replied on page 18. =D))

[kannagi]

(They are okay... I loved the first book, but the second was a bit frusterating. I'm hoping the 3rd and final book in the Kane series turns out great, cuz then it would make the whole series worth it. Reading your post :3 I'll reply in one min.)

[ragemonster]

((Alrighty. How'd you like the first chapter? After I'd finished I was practically itching to read more. Oct. 4th can't come soon enough.))

[kannagi]

(I loved it. It's just so like Percy x3 I mean, he's confused, smells, and doesn't even remember who he is. Yet he still just jumps off a mountain like it's just some totally normal thing to do xD But that Lupa character scares me more than Stheno and Euryales. o.o I have a feeling she is probably cruel, heartless, stern, and powerful, just from the way Jason talked about her. She scared the crap out of him, and he couldn't even remember her xD That's pretty bad..)

(Do you want to start the prophecy or something? :3 I posted it on the first page a while ago. If you need a review of what it's about, I mostly remember. I think it would be great if we took 4 Greeks; Obviously we have to take Dylan and Rose.. and I would love it if we could throw Jason in there xD That should make things interesting. Also, maybe we could drag along Claire or Marissa, Dylan's half sisters. Or we could just forget them altogether and just take Dylan, Jacob, and Rose :3 Up to you...)

----------

Dylan

Dylan muttered thanks to the nymph who brought him his lunch, and was about to dive into it when he noticed a shadow standing over his shoulder, blocking out the sun. He turned around, and was face-to-face with a kid from Apollo, who appeared nervous.

"Hi," he said, as his pale face flushed pink. "I'm Martin. I was, uhm, wondering if I could ask a favor..." He shifted his weight uncomfortably and adjusted his glasses. He was rather pitiful for being the son of the sun god; his skin looked as if it never saw the light of day, and his eyesight was horrible, even for a dyslectic demigod. "I'm not really good at canoeing," he muttered under his breath. "And my head couselor is always teasing me about it. And even Chiron has noticed. He said it wasn't that big of a deal, but I could tell he was disappointed. I was wondering if maybe... maybe you or one of the other Poseidon campers could, well, help me out?" Dylan just noticed that neither Claire nor Marissa had arrived to the Pavilion yet; they must be running late.

"Well, uh I dunno." He said, rubbing the back of his neck. "I am still kind of new here, maybe you'd have better luck with Marissa or Claire--"

"Oh yeah! I totally understand..." Martin blushed a deeper shade of red. "I'll cya around then," and with that, he ran back to his table before Dylan could reply. Dylan immediately felt guilty for refusing the poor Apollo camper's help, and he no longer had an appetite.

[ragemonster]

((Oh I know right? xD Poor Percy. You know, I completely forgot about his Curse of Achilles until it was mentioned. And sure, we could do the prophecy (ironically I was just thinking of this today xD), with Rose and Dylan, and maybe Jacob and one of Dylan's sisters, or Dylan, Rose, and someone else totally unrelated to them both. (Seriously considering Jacob being the "secret criminal"). Or, just Dylan and Rose?))

[kannagi]

(Well in Greek mythology there is always 3 campers that go on a quest; something about the "tri" being lucky. But I dunno, I think we should expose Dylan's not-so-greek background, have him go through torture for a few days, and then Rachel could like collapse in front of everyone or something and mutter the prophecy. xD But since Dylan isn't Greek, he counts as one of the Roman charries. So, Rose, Jacob, and someone else needs to come along. I'm seriously considering making that Martin kid, as mentioned above, be the third xD Or Claire, cuz she reminds me a bit of Annabeth, though a lot more fierce.

I think Jacob should be just the overprotective stubborn half-brother, though. Yeah, he may be a bigot sometimes, and it would be good to add in all that fighting, but he should be loyal and brave at the end of the day..)

[ragemonster]

((Sounds good. Yeah, Jake's just being a stubborn jerk at the moment, as he obviously hates Dylan for the whole capture-the-flag incident. But yes, he's just being jealous and overprotective, like you said. So, Jake, Dylan, Rose, and whoever else you'd like to take would seal the deal. :3))

Rose

Once she'd shook off her anger, Rose took the time to look around and get some bearings of where she was.
The sand and beautiful view of Long Island Sound made it clear she was at the Fireworks Beach, to her relief. This spot was one of her favorites, and she perched herself on a large boulder, watching the waves crash on the beach. The sun was directly overhead, signaling that it was noon, and the cool breeze was the only thing that gave away that it was winter, aside from the iron-gray water farther out into the Sound. The sand underfoot was cool, and Rose kicked off her flip-flops to put her feet in the sand.

[kannagi]

('kay :3 I think I might go with Martin, for a change of parents. I don't want 2 Poseidon/Neptune & 2 Zeus. Yay for Apollo! :3)

(I'm going to control Rachel for a moment here.)

Rachel

Rachel sat by Chiron, watching the demigods eating their lunch while absentmindedly twirling her fork on her now-empty plate. Everything was normal, persay; she hadn't received a prophecy since the one she got 6 months ago; that a very special duo was arriving at Camp Half-Blood. She knew, of course, it was Rose and Dylan. But they haven't done anything spectacular yet; so she waited, like always.

She decided to go for a walk. Some days, it was really boring around here. She hasn't regretted coming here with Percy, no; but she definitely wished she could leave the Camp now and then.

Prophecies come out of nowhere. And this one was no different. One minute she was Rachel Elizabeth Dare, and the next... she was a 5,000 year old possessive spirit. Her blue eyes turned a green, putrid shade, and her arms trembled with power as she collasped to the ground. Green smoke flew from her mouth as she choked back words, engulfing her in smoke. She shook, and though she would never admit it, she was afraid of what happens next. Because she doesn't know, and because deep down, she was scared of the spirit.

Her lips parted as the oracle completely possess her. "I am the Spirit of Delphi." It seemed completely oblivious to the campers crowding around it, as it/Rachel stood up slowly.

"Very different, yet much alike,
2 different bloods must unite
If they are to survive the fight.

However, if they are to survive,
They must seek outside help
From the goddess of night sky.

Travel west; this isn't a test
Figure out the puzzle
During the war of blood and gore.

Find your companions,
4 more you seek,
One is already
Upon your feet.

Don't be fooled, that isn't the problem
A secret criminal is using you as their tool.
Figure them out, before it's too late
On the eighth day, once the sun sets
It'll all be set in slate.

Rachel gasped as she snapped back into reality. She had the vision that always came with these prophecies, revealing the people to go on the quest. She knew the truth. "Dylan. Dylan Greene!" She yelled, her mouth bitter with dislike. "You're a traitor!"
