Entry Three

The next morning, Eric and I were walking from the Poseidon Cabin heading towards the dining pavilion.

I didn't want to be alone last night, and Felicity wanted to give both Eric and I some space, so instead of staying at the Chaos Cabin like she normally does, she spent the night in the Hades Cabin.

She loves staying in her Mom's room in the Chaos Cabin, and everyone leaves her alone about it.

The walk is nice, seeing as every time I go to the dining pavilion I either run or sprint there.

Taking in the sights of the Camp is actually a peaceful experience. Now I know what Dad and Aunt Michaela had always told me, 'Just because you can run as fast as the hare, doesn't mean you can't go as slow as the tortoise.'

Or in other words, just because you are a Primordial, doesn't mean you can act like you own the world. Those below you are needed by you, you can't be the ruler of the world if there is no one to rule.

Walking into the pavilion, all eyes came on us. 'Probably for what happened last night during dinner...' I thought, getting a little angry.

I angrily sat down at the Poseidon table, book in hand.

Luke, Hazel, Piper, Felicity, Eric, Mom, and Uncle Nico sat down on the seats around the table.

I listened as conversations started up around the table. I didn't want to be a part of it, due to my racing mind.

Staring down at the book in my lap, I wanted to know all the secrets that were held in the book. The secrets of my late Father and my missing Aunt.

My shoulders sag as I remember what Eric, Felicity, and I had watched yesterday morning.

'I don't know if I want to know more or not...' I'm doubting if I should keep using the book or not, but I want to feel closer to Dad and Aunt Michaela.

'They're not coming back this time...Not coming back. Ever...' That thought scares me more than anything.

"Amelia..." I look up to see everyone, and I mean the whole dining pavilion, staring at me.

I blinked, noticing for the first time that I was crying.

I wiped my tears, chuckling wetly. "Why did Aunt Michaela have to leave?" I asked, talking mostly to my Mom and Uncle Nico.

The many emotions that were shown varied, shock, sadness, and hopefulness. Everyone wanted to know the answer to the same question. 'Why did she leave?'

Mom and Uncle Nico looked at each other.

Mom sighed. "We don't know. Both the other Primordials and Chaos don't know why she left. We don't know the reason."

I bit my lip. "I might have away to find out."

Everyone who haven't seen what the book can do, looked confused, with some hope in their eyes.

"How?" My Mom asked.

I put the book on the table, and opened it. "Do you know why Aunt Michaela left?"

The pages glowed and words started appearing, but not on the page. The words glowed three feet above the pages.

'Yes...' Gasps were heard around the dining pavilion.

'Lady Michaela left for a reason. I do not know the whole reason, though I the last secret entered was of that something happened. Something to do with Lord Perseus' death. This is all I know...'

The cursive words disappeared and the glow faded.
