Annabeth

This did not sound good.

Of course, it never sounded good.

I seriously was hoping this was just some late April fools prank, but the prophecy sounded real enough. Also, it added up to that dream I'd had. 

The titan king shall be consumed.

Kronos was not completely destroyed, he still has a conscious mind. The words came floating back to  me. Luke had said Kronos wasn't destroyed.

I had ignored it at first. I just thought it was a normal dream, but now everything sounded more real.

Rachels voice pulled me out of my thoughts. "Annabeth? Are you listening?"

"Huh? Oh, yeah I am."

"So I was just asking how Silena is back at camp."

"Wait, Silena? Beauregard? The one that died in the battle of Manhattan? How in Hades would she be here?" Percy asked. Then apparently realizing how rude that sounded, "I mean, I'm not mad that she's here, just," everyone in the room stared at him. "You know what? I'm just gonna shut up now."

"She came through the doors of death. When Gaea opened them, she let out a few souls." I said. "I saw Beckendorf before Rachel came to get me, and," I decided I wouldn't tell them my whole dream, just the part that was important. "And I saw Luke in a dream. He said Kronos wasn't completely defeated, he's alive. And someone's trying to bring him back."

There was a moment of silence, as everyone took in this new information.

"You're kidding, right?" Percy asked. "Even if this dream was real, you're not really gonna trust Luke."

"I'm not saying I trust him, but it adds up to the prophecy."

Before Percy could say anything, Rachel spoke up, "The Titan king shall be consumed. It does make sense. Unless you know any other Titan king."

As much as Percy didn't want to trust Luke, he could see that she was right. He had no answer.

"What about the rest of the prophecy?" Hazel asked. "We can focus on the rest later."

She hadn't met Luke, because she wasn't there during the battle of Manhattan. She probably wanted to be involved in the conversation.

"The seven half-blood's quest resumes. That would mean the seven half-bloods of the Arg-"she cut herself off, not wanting to say the name. We hadn't spoken of it since the battle with Gaea had ended. When Leo had... well, you know what I mean.

"But that would mean Leo-" Jason started, "that would mean he's alive."

Piper and Jason looked at each other. They had been more close to Leo than the rest of us, and Leo's death had affected them more. We all missed him, but it couldn't add up to what they felt.

"What about the other lines?" Piper asked. "The hunter shall join the quest with death, and many once again face their final breaths. Which hunter?"

I felt like I should say Thalia, but we didn't know for sure. "Okay, say we knew which hunter, what about the part where it said, with death?"

"Thanatos?" Frank asked. He'd had a bad experience with almost burning his stick to free the death guy. He'd told us when he Hazel and Percy had gone on a quest to the Arctic.

"Or Hades." I said. We had to keep all our options open.

Frank opened his mouth to say something, when Rachel suddenly fell to the floor, unconscious.
