|| Chapter 6 ||

This is the last pre-written chapter so from now on, don't expect updates as much. I try every Friday and/or Saturday, but writers' block hates me.

Callie POV

I stood at the stern of the ship, watching as camp half-blood got further and further away, "Hey Callie," said Emma from beside me, her heterochromia eyes boring into me, "Why don't you help your dad with the controls of the ship."

"Yeah sure, beats standing here," I replied and walked away.

I walked over to the controls and asked my dad, "Can I help?"

"Of course, can you grab the Nintendo and keep us in a straight line while I turn on the radar?" He replied, I grabbed the Nintendo and kept us on course.

I started to think through the events that will happen after landing in the Roman camp, and what our parents said,

"So first, we were descending," Aunt Annabeth says, "And the Terminus statue comes and tells us we can't land because the whole ship is a weapon, we compromise by floating above New Rome."

"Annabeth sees Percy and they run to each other in slow motion." my dad laughed.

"Leo!" Aunt Piper exclaims as she slaps him upside the head.

"Jeez, beauty queen," he mutters, rubbing the area she hit him.

"Anyways, we have lunch in the forum, Ella comes and-"

"Compares my boat to the Titanic!" Dad interjected.

"And," Annabeth gritted, "Says a prophecy, which then makes Octavian suspicious."

"So then, I take him onto the Argo II for a tour, the rest is a blur to me."

"Reyna and I were talking in the garden of Bacchus when the forum exploded, later we found out an eidolon was possessing Leo."

"Remember kids, It wasn't my fault."

Aunt Piper slapped him again.

I sighed contently, those sessions were so much fun.

I glanced over to where Emma stood by the rails. She had grown so much, I still remember the day we found her...

I was three years old, yet I remember it clearly, My parents, and all our closest family, by that time it was just Charles, Silena and I, walking by the forest. After a while, we hear a baby crying, Uncle Nico and Will tell the other to say with the kids and run into the forest, nobody knows what happened exactly, but I remember the two walking out of the forest clutching two babies, a boy and a girl, one of which had a note on her leg, both bloody.

"What's that?" Aunt Piper askes, pointing to the note.

"It says," Will examines it and gets teary, "'there was nothing we could do, they're getting closer, please take care of our children, her name's Emma.' that's all it says."

"Why're they covered in blood?" Aunt Hazel asks.

"It's... their parents', we found the two there next to some mangled corpses." Nico answers.

After that, Aunt Reyna adopts the boy and names him Andre, Uncles Will and Nico adopt Emma.

We had such a great time with them, I can't imagine a world where we don't meet Emma and Andre.

After a few hours, Leo comes up to me and says I should sleep, I went down to the storage area and into the bag and immediately collapse in a bed.

Of course, dreams invade my sleep,

It was a normal day at camp half-blood, but not the past camp, my camp, forty years into the future.

It appeared to be nighttime, nobody was out.

The dream zoomed into Aunt Annabeth and Uncle Percy's house, I saw Luke asleep in his bed, but when it got to the bedroom, Aunt Annabeth and Uncle Percy were nowhere to be found.

This repeated during the dream, visiting each house and finding the younger siblings asleep, but the parents gone.

Suddenly, a voice called out to me, one I knew too well,

"Legacy of Hephaestus, I am coming for you."

I woke up in cold sweat and immediately ran to the other rooms yelling, "EMERGENCY MEETING, GET YOUR BUTTS HERE!"

Everybody ran in, half dressed, except for Aunt Thalia, I swear she sleeps in her gear.

"What is it?!" Emma asks.

"I had a dream..." I told them the details of the dream, by the time I finished everyone was crying.

"So you actually heard Carl?" Andre asked.

"Yeah, I did, our enemies are the demititans and Tartarus."
