Tealle was startled as it started to talk and backed up.
Mihala fainted on the spot. Teri smirked, remembering other prophecies she had partook in.
(is anyone still here)
(I was sleeping but I'm up now. I'm Central Time btw.)
(Same here, I'm in Central Time.)
(I’m awake, I’m PST.)
Phoebe was listening to the prophecy, eyes wide. There hadn't been a prophecy at Camp for a while now. At least not important ones. She crossed her arms as she listened, swallowing.

Kaden was listening nearby, his back stiffening. Nine demigods. That was practically a monster buffet. And if Alex was chosen to go…. He would tear apart the world to keep his little sister safe.
(I hate how when I'm on, no one's on. But when I'm not on, everyone else seems to be on.)
(I’m sorry. ;-;)
(It's fine.)
Elizabeth gripped her sketchbook tightly, so much that her fingers started turning white. She has heard from other campers who were here for ages, talk about soemthing like this. And people die in situations like this. Elizabeth didn’t want to die, not now.
(Anyone on now?)
(Me)
(I'm here)
(I’m here)
(Who else is here?)
(Okaysies… I'm just going to continue the prophecy since Phoebe's there)
Ryker stoods there in the silence. The oracle seemed to be happy with the company, and continued. "Opposites together will find the key…" she said in her raspy voice. Ryler had no idea what that meant. Opposites?
"Together they stand, alone they fall…" Now this was freaking him out. Were prophecies always this… open-ended and dangerous?
(Hey I’m alive.)
Elizabeth nearly dropped her sketchbook.
(I"m just going to finish it, then we can discuss what the meanings are with our characters)
The oracle continues.
"Magic and water to overcome all
Children of dark, child of stars
One will forever be in bars
Lost will be a child of the sun
Some turned to none."
That last line made him stiffen. Some turned to none… What could that mean? He turned t the people behind him, and realized they were all people he had met before.
(So now we discuss?)
(Yep)
(Okay, I’ll listen.)
Ryker stares at them all, and they stared back. “Gods, do- do you guys have any idea what that meant?” he asked. None of them did anything. “I’ll take that as a no. We need Chiron, now.”
