The prophecy
A week later a girl with bright orange hair walked into the camp. She could here the Apollo kids singing and she went to the camp fire. She looked around until eventually she spotted Percy sat with his girlfriend Annabeth. She smiled and walked over to the two.
"Hey guys." She greeted them. Percy smiled when he say her but she got a usual glare from Annabeth.
"Rachel how are you?" He asked.
"I'm good. Missed this place, any new campers recently."
"A few actually. We've got two new Apollo kids, an Athena, a Hecate, a Hephaestus, a Aphrodite and a couple weeks ago we got a Nike kid. That's all since you last visited."
"Another Hecate huh? Those kids are a little scary the things they can do."
"You should see this new one. She's crazy powerful, she even managed to beat Annabeth in a game of capture the flag."
"Shut up Seaweed brain." Said Annabeth grumpily but Percy just smiled at her making her blush a little.
"Do you guys know where Chiron is?" Rachel asked interrupting them. Both Percy and Annbeth looked up at her.
"He should be around her somewhere." Said Percy.
"If your asking a question like that then I can only come to the conclusion that you've had a prophecy." Sakd Annabeth.
"Then you would be right."
"Was it to do with the other one you said? The seven demigods one?" Asked Percy.
"No I think it's completely different. All I really know is that someone's life is in danger."
"The. We must find a way to help them." Said Chiron appearing beside her.
"Chiron." Said Rachel a little shocked at his sudden appearance.
"Can you repeat the prophecy?" He asked. Rachel nodded took a deep breath. Then her eyes turned green and her voice boomed through the camp making everyone fall silent to listen.
"Day and night must join together
With the help of death to save her brother.
One with be lost in the battle for life
And greatly missed by those who survive.
A quest of mystery and painful truths
One will find out who they really are,
A monster, born from evil that chose to live in the light." Chiron frowned in thought. The camp was silent and the Apollo kids instruments were still. Annabeth stood up.
"We have to work this out." She said. "The help of death...that has to be Nico but as for the day and night I have no idea how they are."
"We must find a camper with a brother in need." Said Chiron. "But whether this brother is a mortal or not is left unclear." As be said this they heard a shriek behind them and Aurora fell to the floor. Some Apollo kids immediately jumped up to help and the Aphrodite kids were freaking out.
"What happened?" Asked one of the Apollo girls.
"I don't know. She muttered something about someone called James after she heard the prophecy and they she collapsed." Chiron walked over to the hysterical Aphrodite girl with Rachel who was back to normal Percy and Annbeth close behind.
"Who is James?" Asked the Apollo kid.
"I don't know." Said the Aphrodite girl.
"James is her step brother." Said a voice from behind Chiron. Everyone turned around to find Lillith stood there with Nico just behind her. Nico had just shadow travelled them back in time for the hearing of the prophecy. "Her Father remarried and had a kid named James. Aurora has never really been all that fond of him. The two are completely different. He is a gamer but when we were driving here to camp he rung her because he was worried. Then Larry chucked her phone out if the window to avoid attracting monsters. Something must of happened to him after that."
"Aurora...of course that means day." Said Annabeth. "And as for night...Lillith it's you...Lillith means monster of the night...the prophecy said something about a monster."
"Lillith isn't a monster." Said Lou Ellen from some way away.
"I never said she was. She can't be she is here in this camp but there are many types of monster. It might simply mean a creature with a lot of power. Many might consider that a monster and we are all aware that Lillith is more powerful than any Hecate child we have here. It has to be those three. Lillith, Aurora and Nico...they have to go and get Aurora's brother back from whoever is keeping him."
"Where would we even start though." Lillith asked.
"I bet Aurora will know something but she is unconscious at the moment." Said Annabeth.
"The three of you should set off tomorrow morning. For now we must get Aurora to the infirmary..."
