The Wrath of Ouranus: Chapter 16

Chapter 16
Luna's POV

"Annabeth?" I called. She wasn't answering, she laid on the ground pale and unmoving. I decided to get up and grab an ambrosia inside my bag. I crushed it into a soft ball and carefully put them inside Annabeth's mouth. Little by little, the ambrosia was giving her colors back. After a moment she was coughing, hard.

"Annabeth!" I said in relief, "Oh thank the gods you are safe!"

Annabeth slowly sat up and coughed a bit, "What-- What happened?" She asked between breathes, "Where's Josh?"

I bit my lips, "Niobe took him in exchange for your safety."

Annabeth's eyes widened for a second before returning into their natural storms of wits. She was thinking of a plan, already.

"Where is he now?" she asked.

I shook my head, "Josh normally radiates some sort of light. But now..."

"What?"

"I can't sense anything. Not a single glow of light."

Annabeth stood, I stood along with her. She was thinking, she had that look she always wears everytime she was thinking.

"Can't you search like you normally do?"

I though about that, "I've never used my tracking ability with Josh before." I hinted before crouching, "There's always a first for everything."

I closed my eyes and felt every presence around me. Darkness, Blue Light, Red flames -- EVeryone had a specific symbol in them and I never knew what Josh's was.

I kept on searching, further and wider than I ever dared.

A Teal Drop, Gray Storm, Leaves and Barks ...

I kept on searching, not stopping until I found something realted to Josh.

More green auras of animals ... A blue feather, green ripples ...

Then I felt something else.

A brown haze of fury beside a glowing tear.

I smiled and looked up at Annabeth.

"Found him."
