Arianna stared into the fire, hands in between her knees, thinking.

Ari stood up and walked over to Perth and put her hand on the distressed girl's shoulder. "Just take a deep breath Perth."

Sienne noticed everyone was either chattering with their friends or sitting in thought. She tried to get the attention of someone to see if she could find out what all this was about. One girl with long black hair that almost looked green because of the fire caught her eye. Do you know ASL? she wrote in the sand in front of the girl.

Ari shook her head at the girl. Sorry She signed back.

Lewis, who had missed the deliverance of the prophecy, ran out of the Hermes cabin upon hearing the news. He at first paid the girls no mind.

Sienne ran after the boy who had just ran past. She had seen him around the camp, so she assumed he knew what this was about. When he sat down, she wrote in the sand again. Do you know ASL?

Lewis stopped in his tracks. He was a little nervous, and that was clear. He had been taught some signing before, but he wasn't the best at it. "A little," he replied, making sure to speak as well so that if she didn't understand the signing, she could maybe read his lips.

Sienne was glad someone could possibly tell her what had just happened. "Do you know what happened just now? With the prophecy? I'm still new, so I don't get what all this means," she signed, hoping he would be able to explain with the sign language he knew, "If you can't explain in signs, I can read your lips."

Lewis sighed in relief. "It was just that. A prophecy. Usually when we have those, they explain a grim event that will come to pass, and hint at the heroes it will take to save us. We send heroes to go on quests in order to save us. Some prophecies are more dire than others. As for what it was about? I'm just as lost as you are. I was asleep when someone came in screaming about a prophecy."

Ari turned to look at Lewis. "Why were you sleeping???" She asked.

"Am I not allowed to sleep?" he asked back, "I've been training a lot, and I think it's well-deserved."

Lewis then switched back to his more serious demeanor and asked Ari if she had heard the prophecy.

Ari nodded. "I guess." She walked over to the two of them.

"Can you tell us who the prophecy was about?" Sienne signed.

"I did, but Perth had better tell you. I have a different way of processing and relaying information, so I could tell you it completely differently." Arianna said.

Sienne read the girl's lips and turned to the boy, whom she assumed was Lewis, "Who's Perth?" she signed.

"She's Zeus's daughter. She's been here more than twice as long as I have," Lewis answered, "I don't know her incredibly well, but she's seen her fair share of prophecies. That I'm certain of."
Lewis addressed Arianna again, "Have you seen her?"

"I was just with her. She's freaking out quite a bit."

"Must've been bad," Lewis murmured under his breath. He adjusted his glasses and ran his fingers through his raven hair. He was terribly nervous now.

"It really was." Ari whispered. "If either of you need me, I'll be down by the lake."

Lewis decided not to bother Ari any more. He glanced at Sienne, then back around the campsite, searching for Perth.

Sienne nodded. She looked behind and saw the light from the fire fading. She hadn't realized how late it was already, "I'm going back to the Hades Cabin," she signed, "tell me if you figure anything out, ok?"

Arianna jumped into the water. "She let herself drop to the bottom and sat cross-legged. Okay. Don't freak. Don't freak. Don't freak.

Lewis nodded. He paced around the campsite, searching for someone to tell him what was happening. He caught a few words here and there: end of the world, someone has to save us, Perth, perhaps? But nothing seemed new to him. So far, it seemed a standard prophecy.

Sienne jogged back to the Hades Cabin and shut the door. As soon as she knew no one else was there, she started doing what she had been doing for the last week she had been here and known about her powers. She used her powers to bring her younger sister to the world of the living. "Hi," Sienna signed, "how's the underworld?"
