Louis

I was still thinking angrily about Rene staying with me when the meeting started, outside before the fire. She was still probably still fuming to, I thought. Fortunally I had to leave her in the medical Bay to Attend the meeting. 

Unlike useaul though, the crowd was all mixed, there was no chatter, no was stayed by their seats that showed what Cabin they belonged to. You could tell, just by feeling the atmospheare something was very, very wrong. 

I felt for a moment claustrophobic, there were so many people...It had been a long time since he'd mixed with all the other Demigods before. Harry would of known how to calm me down...He didn't exactly know what had happened to me, no one did but he knew how to make me smile and laugh again, even if it was for a few seconds. 

Luckily though I did have someone else who knew about my panick attacks. "Hey, take slow breaths. you alright?" 

I breathed a sigh of relief as Liam came up from behind me, sitting down next to me. 

"I'm fine...I-Wait, are you okay?" I suddenly noticed how pale Liam looked and he had dark bags under his eyes. He dismissed me with a slight wave of his hand "I'm fine, rubbish sleep, thats all and a bit of a stomach ache, I think it was the food last night..."

I relaxed slightly then stiffened as two scowling faces walked into the meeting. Percy and Annabeth but they looked like they'd had some sort of argument then I wached curious as Annabeth gave my new half sister, Casey an angry look before she sat down. Percy sat next to Casey looking defient. Casey looked as confused as I felt.

I jumped, startled a bit when Chiron started to speak "Demigods, we come here on an urgant and pressing matter, today we do not face, wars or battles or monsters, we are facing an even deadlier enemy, an sickness has spread in the Camp...It has already killed two or our own, we must prey to the gods and hope they can help, if anyone has any information on this sickness, please step forward"

Suddenly Drew stepped forward. I stopped myself from glaring, I didn't really like that Aprodite girl...The amount of snide comments she can give you if she thinks she's higher that you is insufferible. Drew said slowly "I don't really have information but...I have a theory..."

"Yes?" Chiron asked. 

Drew lifted her chin slightly and said, her voice carrrying a strange quility to it that I found myself consideering her idea "Casey caursed this!"

Casey looked up shocked. 

Chiron said hesiantly "Drew, I don't think-"

Drew said angrily "She came exactly around the same time this sickness started!"

Drew dramaticly pointed her hand at Casey and said to everyone listerning to her "No wonder her father tried to kill her! She probably was carrying the sickness and brought it on us!" 

Casey stood up "Thats not true!" She yelled. 

"No? Prove it Newbie" Drew retorted.

Was it true? Could Casey be the culprit of this sickness?

"Stop It Drew! You're Charm Speak doesn't work on all of us!" Joette's voice came out of nowhere and just like that I snapped out of it. No! What was I thinking? I was blaming my sister for this? No way!

However some people still seemed to agree with Drew, including Annabeth?

 "Annabeth, I told you that-" Percy growled.

"Its the only logical solution Percy! Why else would she come as soon as the sickness hit? Why else would Zeus try and kill her?" Annabeth told him firmly.

While they argued I realised with a start that this must of been what they had argued about before coming to the meeting, Annabeth must of arrived at the same conclusion at the same time as Drew did.

As soon as Percy and Annabeth argued there was an uproar in everyone else, some shouting and yelling at each other, I heard how fighting monsters brang this camp together, closer than before but this sickness was tearing the camp apart. 

My head started to ache as the shouting contiuned... 

"Percy"s right! You can't-"

"She is bringing the sickness!" 

"She must be stopped!"

"You can't blame her for this!"

"You have no prove!" 

Shut up.

"Niether do you!"

Shut up.

"Its not right!"

"Our friends and siblings are dying! I don't care whats right!"

Shut up!

"You-!"

"SHUT UP!!" 

Everyone grow silent as a pained cry reached into the air, it took me a momet to realise it was me who had yelled it. I was sitting in a lower positition than I was, my hands covering my ears and my breath coming in fast, come on! Pull yourself together Louis! I shouted at myself in my head. This is not the dam time to have a panick attack. 

I ignored a strange look from Rene from behind me, something unfamiler on her face.

To my relief Chiron coughed, everyone looked back at him. 

Chiron said hesiantly "Yes...Well, I agree with Louis and I think you should have thought of anouther option, for example Rachel?" 

Rachel stood up from her seat near the front, everyone looked at her as she said hesiantly "I at the moment have no prophercy of this sickness but I feel there is one coming soon, yet the time is not yet right, though..."

I shivered as the air seemed to grow colder, I'm sure by all the pale faces around me, I wasn't the only one who felt it.

Rachel added, looking up into the sky then at Chiron and at everyone around her "Though I feel something in the air, I'm afraid a Storm is coming and we all best be ready when she does..."
