~Frank's POV~

Even after hours of preparing and being with Hazel, I still feel like I'm not prepared enough. The first quest I had been on, I had lead and that was the quest to Alaska.

Seeing as at the time Alaska was unknown and dangerous, but now this island is unknown and could be potentially dangerous.

"C'mon, it's almost sunset. Everyone agreed to meet in the dining pavilion." Hazel said, taking my hand and guiding me to the dining pavilion.

I laughed and followed.

We were walking around the cabins, just talking.

Walking into the dining pavilion, I noticed that everyone else was here. Even Michaela.

All eyes turned to us, before looking to Michaela, who was staring at the lake.

Michaela clapped once and turned to the quest members, when I joined Piper and Jason.

"So, we got a chariot?" She asked.

Leo spoke up. "One I made myself." He said, proud.

Michaela looked at him, and smiled. "I really have missed you all." She stated, looking at everyone.

Chiron galloped up, and smiled sadly at Michaela. "And, we have you missed you. And, Percy. It hasn't been the same since you left."

Michaela smiled, before becoming serious. "The only you can get there is with Blackjack. He can get you there." Making it sound simple, when it isn't.

"But, we don't know where Blackjack is." I stated.

Michaela smiled, and snapped her fingers. It was still strange seeing Michaela in a misty figure.

Noise started in the woods behind Michaela, something coming closer and closer.

Until Blackjack stood there waiting for instructions.

"Hey Blackjack." Michaela greeted, as the Pegasus galloped around her, causing her to laugh.

"What now?" Jason asked.

"Now," Michaela straitened up. "I warn you that the journey will be boring and your destination will be hard." She warned.

"What do you mean by 'boring'?" Piper asked.

"The journey to Tartarus is said to last nine days, but it really depends on the way you go down. Percy and I can travel to and fro in an instant, you three on the other hand, I have no idea on how long the journey will be." Michaela answered.

"Now, do you have all of your stuff?" She asked.

Jason, Piper and I made noise of confirmation.

"Then, gear up and take Blackjack." Michaela turned and left, again.

Both Camps and the rest of the Element Wolves made a sendoff for our quest to the island.

Piper, who was handling the reins, had Blackjack take off. Right as the sun started to set, we left Camp Half-Blood.
