Leaving

Percy P.O.V.

Waking up to the seven having to meet in the Big House is not the best way to wake up. When I see not only the seven being her but Asteria, Nico, and Thalia, I knew something was wrong.

"Well since everyone's here. I will let Asteria explain," Chiron says as everyone was seated.

"Chiron I really don't think it would be a good idea to send the seven after them having to go cross country for the Giant War. Even if the dream is true we don't know where it is and I am not going to force Nico to shadow travel this many people," Asteria says her feet tapping on the floor.

She looked more worried about us then what was going on. Now I'm worried. What is it that she doesn't want us to come with her?

"I need you to tell them so that tonight when you leave you will be on the same page," Chiron sys

"Fine. But if I think it wouldn't be safe," Asteria says. "My mother has shown me her and Lord Hades another world they created together. That world is in danger and she wants me to see why it is. But in the dream there these being that suck the life out of you with its presence"

"Well if that is it I see why Chiron wants all of us to go. It is easier for us to protect each in this world," Annabeth says.

"Also, I think Lady Hecate wants us to go. Lady Artemis sent me here for that reason as well," Thalia says.

Honestly, I just wanted to finish up school and go to college in New Rome. But then again you could never do anything with the gods always having a conflict.

"Then it is settled, everyone will be meeting at Thalia's tree for everyone to leave," Chiron says.

Everyone one ran to pack cause this is definitely going to be a long day ahead. Might as well have fun while it last

Asteria P.O.V

I know complaining about a dream you don't fully know is useless. But the seven shouldn't be the ones that have to come. Annabeth and Percy fell into Tartarus for heaven sakes. They off all people need a break. When night fell, I was the first one to arrive only because I needed some time to think. Whatever I saw I knew it was a sign. Sign that I could fully understand but you know demigod dreams never tell you everything.

"Asteria, what are you doing here so early?" Thalia says carrying a duffle bag over her shoulder.

"Trying to figure out what my dream means. What about you?" I asked.

"Well, I thought I could get some fresh air before the rest of them arrive."

We both went silent, as it was what we both wanted and needed. Eventually, everyone arrived most looked like they just died and came back to life. Some started to fall asleep but I was trying to stay awake I need to at least figure out why we're going. And where.

"You should really sleep. It is easier for me to take all of you to this world."

I shot awake. That voice sounded so much like my mother that it confused me.

"It is me Asteria. You really need to sleep. Everything will be explained when you wake up."

I slowly fell asleep next to Thalia's slow breathing. Knowing that my mother is the one making sure we're safe.
