Percy~
I was getting swordfighting tips from Chiron when Annabeth ran up. "Chiron," she said, out of breath, "Jenni had a dream message. From Hera." Chiron looked concerned. "Telling her not to look for Nico DiAngelo," she continued.
I kept practicing. "I don't think he wants to be found, so don't worry," I told Annabeth. "I know, Seaweed Brain, but remember, it's HERA," she replied. Chiron said, "Normally when Hera does this, the demigod is powerful, and she wants him for a task. This task could possibly start a war."
I put down my sword. "So we're going after Nico?" I ask. "Yes," Chiron replies, "We need to assemble a team."

Annabeth-
The situation was urgent, so me, Chiron, and (reluctantly) Percy went to call the rest of camp to the campfire. After rounding up half of camp, I headed for the campfire site. It felt strange, even to me, to gather around the dead coals in the early morning sunlight. As I waited for Chiron and Percy to return I wondered what the gods would think about us skipping breakfast. Hopefully they wouldn't blast us into ashes because we didn't send them a burnt offering. I glanced over at the brazier where we burn a part of every meal. Apparently Chiron had had the same thought as me and had already been there, because a few harpies were scraping some bacon and eggs into the flames. The smell made my mouth water. Maybe we'd get to eat after the quest had been sent off. Or maybe I'd be part of the quest and have to eat that gross travel food-
Chiron came galloping up, and I forgot about breakfast. Percy came jogging behind him, and honestly, I might've laughed! I mean, come on, it's not that far from the arena to the campfire, and Percy was breathing heavily, gasping for air. He noticed me suppressing my laughter and grinned widely like he accomplished something.
Actual me-
About to eat dinner, gotta go. post more later about Chiron's decision.

As far as I'm concerned SusyQ can be a goddess. Hera maybe. Or maybe she might want to be Jenni. I wasn't really clear about her godly parent, so she can create Jenni's story.
More posting later

I'll be Jenni!

"Jenni," Chiron announced, "has had a dream telling her that no matter what happens, she is not to go looking for Nico. From Hera."
"That," I said, "is a load of pegasus dung."
Annabeth glared at me. I glared back. Chiron looked at both of us.
"We have to decide what to do about this, which is why we called this meeting," Percy said.
"Well isn't it obvious?" I asked. "We go on a quest. Where's Rachel?"
"No," Chiron broke in, "Clarisse, we have to think about this. Hera specifically said not go after him."
"Listen, losers, " I yelled, "in case you've forgetten, you'd all be dead if it weren't for Nico. Don't you remember that? Huh? Don't tell me you've forgotten. Who rescued you guys when Luke rose? Who raised that wall of black stone? Who figured out what Luke did so he could host Kronos? Who told you, Percy? Who saved all our butts back at the Empire, when we were backed right up against it and we were going to lose? Who convinced his dad? Huh? Nico Di Angelo, that's who. And you guys just want to leave him there, while he's probably battling a monster somewhere? Is that what you want to do? Fine then, do it. Do it. But I'm out of here. I'm going to go find him, and I'm going to get Nico back safely, understand?"
"Clarisse," Percy said, "you can't go on quest. Not without a prophecy, and you can't just leave the camp. It's against the rules."
I sneered at him. "It seems to me that somebody, ah, forgot those rules a few years ago. You snuck out with Annabeth and Tyson. And besides, I've got special privelidges. Remember?"
Percy sighed. "Fine, go. Why do you care so much about Nico anyway? He's not family."
"When someone saves your butts and has no one to save his own, he's family. Now, I can bust out of here, or we can do the thing properly, and get a prophecy and all that. Which way would you rather go?"
Chiron sighed. "Clarisse, please. We'll go after him. We need a group of three. You and who else?"
"Five," I said. "We need a group of five. It's in my gut. We need five."
"But Clarisse," Annabeth said.
"I know. I remember. We lost Bianca and Zoe. But the second time, we didn't lose anybody. You think I don't remember? I remember," I said, squeezing Chris Rodriguez's hand tightly. "We remember. But this time, we need five. Me, the loser, Annabeth, Jenni, and someone else."
Chiron sighed, exasperated. "Fine," he said, "Whatever you say."
I usually get what I say.

Jenni~
Chiron turned to me. "I think you should have the final say, Jenni. You had the dream message. Anyone in particular you want to come on the quest?" My mouth felt dry. I did not want to lead a quest. Finally I managed to squeak that out. Chiron looked agast. "But Everyone wants to lead a quest," he said. I felt faint."I don't." Chiron looked at me strangely. "We better find Rachel."
Spammydude says afaf. Any ideas?
(September 16, 2011 - 4:21 pm)
I'm so sorry I abandoned this thread!!! I'm not sure what I should post so I'll wait a while.
(September 16, 2011 - 4:30 pm)
Can I lead? If none of you guys want to? Please? With a Kindly One on top?
(September 16, 2011 - 6:41 pm)
I dont know, maybe Percy wants to lead. We should see who wants to lead and who doesn't.
(September 17, 2011 - 10:22 am)
Well, seeing as I'm Percy Jackson... jk, go ahead!
(September 17, 2011 - 10:51 am)
It's fine with me, then. Should we have a prophesy? That might be a little hard to come up with. Any way, I think we need Rachel. So someone, please put her in your next post.
@Sagara... will you be joining this thread after all? I don't think you're in the position to lead, even if you want to, because you're a naiad (right?) Sorry, but I'm pretty sure only demigods can lead a quest.

Will go to rhyme dictionary and start making up random prophecy that could mean anything so we can do whatever we want.
*Goes to rhyme dictionary*
Okay, this is really, really bad, and I just made up most of it to go with Nico (find the half-dead that are lost... or is it Nico? These stupid prophecies never make any sense. And are is plural...) Oh, and it's four if Sagara doesn't want to rejoin.
.
Five will navigate the earth, to find the half dead that are lost.
They shall pass the heat, only to be taken by the frost.
Some they shall lose, and some they shall gain.
Friends they shall make, but lost to rain.
They shall be helped and hurt, by many of the twelve.
They shall play the part of trickster, only to be hoodwinked themselves.
.
It needs work. And it makes no sense to me either.
.
1. That is basically self-explanatory, except there's room for bigger problems than just Nico, which is probably the case.
2. No idea.
3. in case someone has to stop writing, or someone wants to join.
4. Something to rhyme with 3.
5. Don't the gods always interfere?
6. Hmmm... no idea.

Oh my gosh, my prophecy is horrible. SOMEONE CALL RICK RIODAN!!!
