‘Hello and who are you?’ The nymph said

‘hi’ I said ‘I am Grover the satyr and this is Percy and Annabeth the savours of Olympus’

‘Hi and don’t forget you helped too Grover’ Annabeth said

‘and who is this boy?’ the nymph said pointing to Jack

‘hello miss I am Jack son of Zeus’ he said

‘hmm a child of Zeus they just keep coming.

‘what do you mean “they just keep coming”? Percy said

‘a daughter of Zeus walked just across this mountain just a few minutes ago’ the nymph said

‘Thalia!’ Percy Annabeth and I said at the same time.

‘who’s Thalia?’ Jack said

‘your half-sister and the leader of the hunters’ Annabeth said

‘so she’s one of the hunters’ Jack said ‘that means we’re on the right trail.

‘yep by the way what’s your name?’ I said asking the nymph

‘I am Maia pronounced May-a the mountain nymph’ Maia said

‘wait weren’t you the mother of Hermes?’ Percy said

‘no no I’m not that old but that Maia is my namesake’ said Maia

Suddenly something weird happened Maia took up the voice of juniper like she was being possessed and then she spoke to me in junipers voice.

‘Grover you must follow her. she is the one take her with you and see what happens. she can help you in both ways.’ Maia/Juniper said

‘I-I will Juniper I won’t let you down’ I said

Maia returned to her normal self and fainted. I caught her.

‘looks like you’ll have to come with us’ I said

‘does this mean an adventure?’ she said

‘it sure does’

A/N by the way I didn't call the mountain nymph Maia just because it's my name. In Greek mythology the mother of Hermes is actually called Maia and that's my namesake. And in case you were wondering I'm not Greek.
