Annabeth and Percy were stumbling through Tartarus. They were exhausted and in pain, but they couldn't stop. The monsters would catch up and they would be killed. If that happened, Gaea would win, and they couldn't let that happen.

Percy panted. "I'm... so... tired."

Annabeth helped support him, "Come on seaweed brain... you can do it."

They kept making their way through the hellscape when a light appeared in front of them.

Percy instinctively pulled out his sword, Riptide. Annabeth pulled out her makeshift weapon made of bone. They watched as the light got bigger and brighter. It was warm and welcoming.

Percy let his arm drop and he stared at the light. Annabeth's arm followed suit.

The light got closer, but they didn't run away.

The light engulfed them, and they were gone

Leo, Hazel, Jason, Frank, Piper and Nico were aboard the Argo II.

They were sitting around the dining room table. It had been two days since Percy and Annabeth had fallen into hell.

"How much longer till we reach Greece?" Jason asked.

"About two weeks," Nico said.

Jason sighed.

They all missed the two Greek demigods. Nico was even sadder than he usually was. Percy was like his brother.

"I need to IM Thalia," Nico said, standing up.

He was stopped as a bright, white light appeared in the center of the room. Everyone pulled out their weapons. The light didn't do anything, it just floated there.

"Feels like home," Hazel whispered.

Everyone else felt it too, and unconsciously lowered their weapons. The light expanded, and they too were gone.

Thalia was in the hunter's camp. They were hunting a pack of hellhounds.

"How close is the pack?" a hunter asked the dark haired lieutenant.

"Still a few miles away," Thalia answered.

The hunter nodded and went back to her tent.

Thalia looked up as she heard footsteps approaching her.

"M'lady," she said, standing up to the approaching goddess.

"Thalia." Artemis greeted, "How are you?"

Thalia sighed, "I'm worried about Percy and my other friends."

The moon goddess nodded, "I know. But they're strong, if anyone can do this, it's them."

Thalia smiled, "Than-" she was interrupted by the appearance of a white light.

Everyone in the vicinity drew their bows and aimed it at the light. After a moment Artemis spoke.

"Lower your weapons. It's not a threat."

The hunters hesitantly obeyed. Thalia was mesmerized by the light. Artemis watched her closely, then the light.

"Go Thalia. It's meant for you."

Thalia nodded and ran into the light, and she was gone.

At Camp Half-Blood five people were all wandering to the same spot.

Grover dropped his reed pipes and walked towards the shore, not really sure why, but knowing that that's where he needed to go.

Travis and Connor both looked at each other and nodded, abandoning their latest prank idea. They needed to go to the beach.

Katie looked up from the flower box she was tending to. She didn't understand why she needed to head towards the beach but she went anyway.

Clarisse dropped her sword in the middle of practice. Thankfully she was the only one around. Beach was the only thought she had.

When they all arrived on the shore they nodded to each other, understanding that someone was calling them here. After a moment a light appeared in front of them all. It was silent for a moment.

"Ladies first." Travis and Connor said, staring at the light.

Clarisse snorted and walked in first, the others following behind her.
