''' A Goddess Gives Us A New Enemy '''

I rematerialized in the middle of a war council. When everyone saw me, they cheered. I got off of the table, and told everyone my story. I burned the shroud that the Aphrodite Cabin had made for me. According to camp rules, if a camper goes on a quest, a shroud is made to be buried if they die. If They don’t die, the quester gets to burn it.

Nobody would believe me when I said Christian was the enemy. But soon, they began to understand. Chiron looked impressed with me. I took out Ceto’s scale and showed everyone. It was so great to be back at camp. We adjourned the meeting and prepared for Capture the Flag. My team won, when I used my helm to sneak by and get the flag. We all headed to the Cabins where we saw a beautiful lady with gray eyes in the middle of the cabins. We all walked over.

“Lady Athena,” Chiron said bowing, “To what do we owe this pleasure?”

“Unfortunately, battle,” Athena responded, “There is a camp very much like your own in the south that plans to destroy the gods.”

“Yeah,” I said, “Christian said something about that.”

“And he was not bluffing,” Athena said. She pulled out a sword made of pure silver and tossed it to Chiron, who caught it, “You know what that means.” She said, and she disappeared.
