Quick note.

Ily!
You're awesome!

When ever Reyna has nightmares its always a nightmare within it's self. The fear of watching the events unfold right in front of you.

First she was at Camp Jupiter at the boarder. The smell of Monsters is in the air. What caught her attention their we're a large numbers of halfbloods with them. Enjoying it.

She walks around the border to see what looks like a whole army resting so close to Camp Jupiter. Her Home. Made her sick.

"Demigods." One said and spat across the dirt, "They disgust me."

"I agree." Another hisses and slashes her claws across a stone making a small sparks, "I want to kill them and watch the gods be over thrown!"

"We will see the fall of the gods and their retched children and the world is within our grasp again!" A harpy screeches.

A more powerful voice calls out above all the others, "In a few days time we shall storm their little fortress and bring our masters what they desire! Death to Gods and their Spawns!"

The battle cry reaches across all the monsters. A ripple in the pond that spread out a great distance.

Then her dreams shifts.

She fighting by the little timber when the different giant she have never seem before with it's giant hand flicks her away as if she was a fly.

It then grabs her and holds her under water until her lungs burn. Then pulls her back up as she gasps for air and her weapon.

Then she's on the same beach again with Nico and watches him die then she wakes up.

She takes a deep breathe in the dark of the night. She leans up in bed clutching her chest feeling her heart beating rapidly in her chest.

"Can't sleep?" Nico said by the window that has a few rays of moonlight pouring in.

"Y-Yes." Reyna breaths still taking deep breathes. This is the second time she had the dream about the giant on the beach.

Reyna silently walks over and sits across from Nico.

"Are you scared?" He asks his eyes closed.

"Of what?" Reyna asks.

"Anything."

She blows a stray hair that isn't sticking to her forehead with sweat, "The Quest."

He eyes opens and he stares back at her.

"I believe this isn't an regular quest. We are apart of something much larger something we can't see the full picture of right now," Reyna explains and pulls herself until she's standing.

"That was what my nightmare was about," Nico mumbles.

"The Quest?" Reyna asks her voice has a slight hitch to it.

"I wish." He shakes his head and hair falls so that his eyes are clear, "It's the Prophecy."

"What?" Reyna gasp her heart pounding in her ears.

"I-I-" He looks at Reyna, "It's nothing."

Reyna said and sat down on a bunk which was soft under her finger tips and whispers, "I know it's very difficult to share them."

"Reyna." Nico slowly walks over while taking, "You know how Dreams are supposed to have a meaning."

She twist her fingers nervously and mutters, "Yes."

He sits next to her and the bed slightly dips, "We were fighting on a-"

"Beach?" Reyna ask and he stares at her with larger black eyes.

"Yes." He said and he takes her hand and presses to his face, "Reyna I couldn't protect you. I left you to fight that giant."

"Nonsense." She starts.

"No. I made a promise to never let anything or anyone harm you." Nico said.

She feels her face heat up and looks down at her lap.

"I want to protect you." She hears him whisper.

"And I want to protect you Di Angelo," She said back.

He cracks a small smile, "You really are something special."

"Wow. That a big step up from Die! Demigod scum! You are part of a crazy prophecy." She said and he softly chuckles.

Then looks really drained.

"You need rest." Reyna said and gets up from bed when she feels Nico wrap his arms around her.

"Stay."

"Nico-"

"I'm afraid I'll have nightmares," He said and Reyna sighs in defeat.

"I don't know maybe-" Reyna starts but Nico quickly pulls her toward him. She had her back against his chest.

"Get some sleep." She whispers as she grabs his hand in the dark.

"For once in many weeks I think I will." He whispers back and grabs her hand back and they both find sleep.

...........

Reyna opens her eyes to find Nico getting out of bed. Light enough trying to not wake her up.

She laughs slightly and this gets his attention.

"Did I wake you up?"

"Nope." Reyna yawns, "I was waking up anyway."

"I was going to tell Chiron about the rest of the Prophecy." Nico said putting on a new shirt.

Reyna furrows her eyebrows, "Yes, I had almost forgotten."

"Reyna what are you doing?" Nico ask as she stands up.

"Getting dressed." She said.

"With you injuries." He said with wide eyes.

"They're only minor." Reyna said.

Nico scoffs, "Sure."

"I'm going to they meeting." Reyna said using her authority voice.

Nico half smiles and pecks her lips, "Stay. Please?"

They stare in each other eyes and she sighs, "Fine but only this once."

"It won't be long." He said and walked out the cabin door and Reyna sits back down on the bed.

It was really boring sitting in the cabin alone so Reyna decided to get out and walk around. Changing into some shorts and she couldn't find a shirt.

The only shirt in the cabin were Nico's all were either black or a close shade to to it. And only one Camp Half Blood shirt.

"I hope he wouldn't mind." She whispers and slips on the shirt tucking in the lose ends.

The fresh air hits her and she takes a deep breath. She walks over to the infirmary to check up on the girls.

"Come on Aaron please wake up." Jordan whispers griping her friend hand saying words of encouragement to her.

"Oh hi Reyna." Charlie said barely keeping her excitement under control.

"Hello Charlie." She smiles back hugging the girl.

"We heard about what you did a few days ago very brave of you." Charlie smiles.

"I never got to thank you really but thank you Praetor Reyna." Jordan kneels.

"Please rise. It was nothing really, beside that crazy Centaur." Reyna said and Jordan rises. Reynas takes a seat on Charlie's bed.

"What's wrong with Aaron?" Reyna asks softly.

"S-She's in a coma like a deep coma The leader of the Apollo cabin said." Jordan explains.

"Will?"

"Yeah that's his name." Charlie nods her curls moving with her.

"I hope she wakes up soon it's not fun being in a coma." Reyna said looking at Aaron chest move up and down.

Many people had healed from there wounds had healed so the infirmary was empty except a few beds.

"What day it it?" Reyna asks.

"It's April 27." Charlie answers looking out the window.

"Thank you." Reyna said, "I have a few things to do so I'll be going now."

"Okay we'll see you later Reyna." Jordan said smiling at her, "Thank you for every thing."

Reyna smiles and walks out the infirmary. She sits in the strawberry fields to help clear her head.

The Summer Solstice is in a two months. She folds her leg and meditated.

When will this quest be issued now or later? What are the trying to accomplish?

There were to many question and only a few answers. Her mind screams.

Then she hears voices.

"Okay Ryan since your a son of Demeter we're going to try to grow soon strawberries for Camp Jupiter. We usual work with Dionysus kids but I want to see what your capable of.  I know you can do this. You gotta it?" The girl instructs him.

"I think." He said unsure.

"Don't worry you'll get the hang off it." The girl said and position her hands in from of her, "Now let's start with the seed."

"Seed." He repeats and copies her movement.

She grows a small strawberry plant and Ryan closes his eyes and constraints.

Reyna watches as the plant slowly starts to grow.

"That's it!" The girl said.

Then the plant grows to monster pus size really fast. It's vines growing all across the field. One wraps around Reyna ankle and starts to grow skyward.

Taking Reyna along with it.

She could not have one day without an attack on her life. She was getting tried of it.

.................
