Chapter Three
~Chris's POV~
When I worked for Kronos, Luke was always seen as the bad guy, (I was too) but even when he was Camp Half-Blood he was always serious and tense.
Now, he acts childish and fun to be around. Though some of the girls hate how childish he is sometimes. I do have a feeling it was because of Percy and Michaela, and the way they act that inspired Luke.
Luke closed his eyes and concentrated.
After a few tense moments, Luke yelped and jumped back, opening his wide eyes.
"Luke..." I ask.
"Why did Michaela have to respond so loud?" He wondered, eyes still wide.
Then, a white glow appeared where Luke was before he jumped back. The glow too form of a teenager, but not any teenager, Michaela.
The image wasn't the best, though you can tell it's Michaela.
"Wow, you tried calling me. This must be big, none of you tried before this..." Michaela frowned, looking around before staring at Luke. "What's up?" She asked, acting casual.
"What's up? What's up? Why did you leave?" Clarisse demanded, looking angry. I would try calming her down, but I knew it was a losing battle.
Michaela smiled sadly. "I know. I know I left, but there is a reason."
Zoe stood. "And, that is?" She asked, holding her head high.
Michaela stared at her, before sighing. "I had to leave. Something happened to Percy, and it was affecting me. I couldn't stay and it broke my heart. You have to understand that."
"Then, can you help us?" Phoebe asked.
Michaela bit her lip. "Depends. What do you need help with?"
Annabeth stepped forward. "What do you know about an island?"
Michaela froze, her eyes wide. "Where did you hear that?" She breathed out, looking fearful.
We all looked at each other.
Silena stepped up. "Why? What do you know about it?" She asked.
Michaela hesitated, before sighing again. "It's an island that no one knows the location of. The Fates, before Percy and I found it, thought it was a myth. Chaos doesn't know where it is. And, Destruction and Order didn't go looking for it. Only the Co-Balancers can find it, and Percy and I managed to do it on accident."
"So, only Annabeth and I can find it?" Nico summed up.
Michaela just stared at him. "It's more complicated than that, Nico." she sighed again, frustrated. "You and Annabeth can't go, that will only make the situation worse."
"Who can go then?" Hazel asked.
Michaela shrugged. "I don't know. I'm following my own cryptic message of the future."
"You mean a Prophecy?" I asked.
She stared at me like I was an idiot. "Anyway," Michaela looked away. "I can't help unless you have a Prophecy or something."
Piper stepped forward, hesitating. "...Only those who can travel there may go, and those who have not lost life and came back. Those who go need to be powerful and have a connection to the Sky, Sea, and Underworld..." She repeated from the book.
