Theo
The pain was unbearable, I couldn't hear myself screaming but I knew I was.

I closed my eyes but for some reason I could still see the picture. Then I realised it wasn’t a picture anymore, it was moving, slowly at first but it quickly sped up. I was watching a battle.

Bailey was fighting a boy of about fifteen who had a back sword, an obvious sign of a child of Hades. Grape vines were shooting out of the ground and attacking the boy but it didn’t seem to be helping, the boy would just slice through them with ease and they would collapse to dust.

Suddenly the Hades boy lunged for Bailey but it didn’t to anything in the boys favour, Bailey just blocked every attack that came his way. I had no idea Bailey was so good with a sword.

Whilst the pair were fighting I could see vines sprouting out of the ground slowly and quietly. Before the son of Hades knew what was going on a vine had wrapped it self round his ankle and had pulled him over.

I expected Bailey to knock the boys sword away while he was down but he didn’t, instead he just stood there. He wasn’t doing anything.

Then the fallen boys eyes filled with panic and he started to lift his sword so it was pointed at his chest. Bailey was doing his madness trick he had done to the Minotaur, but this time he was going to have the boy kill himself. I didn't understand, Bailey wouldn’t do something like that, would he?

However before the boys could stab himself a red haired girl appeared and grabbed Bailey, placing her knife to his neck.

“Let Haidyn go,” she snarled.

The Hades boy, Haidyn, relaxed and dropped his sword.

“Scott!” I heard a girl scream behind me. I spun round to see the dark haired boy fall to the ground clutching his side. There was a taller older guy stood over him with a bloody sword. I didn’t need to guess who he had just stabbed.

A girl with dark skin who looked about sixteen ran over followed by a blond haired boy of about twelve. They knelt next to the dark haired boy, they both had tears in their eyes.

Snow stared to fall gently from the sky even though it seemed like summer and the ground froze over, I had a feeling the stabbed boy called Scott was causing that to happen.

Not wanting to watch the boy die, I turned round only to see myself fighting a tanned boy in his twenties with bright blue eyes. He looked familiar but I didn't know where I had seen him from. I had an arrow pointed at his head but it didn’t seem to bother him, he still had a cruel smirk on his face.

“Face it Theo,” he said, “you've lost.” Other Theo didn’t reply, instead a bright light stared to come from his hands.

When I saw it the pain in my head returned. It felt like my brain was going to explode.

I opened my eyes and the pain stopped just as fast as it had arrived. I was still in my mom’s room, however I was curled up on the floor clutching the picture that I had just seen some to life.

The best conclusion I could come to about what had just happened was that I had just had a vision of the future, it wast’t rare for children of Apollo to have that ability. I knew three of my siblings back at camp could get them.

What I didn’t understand is why my mum had drawn the pictures. I knew that some mortals where able to seen into the future, Rachel Elizabeth Dare was one of them. Did this mean my mother was as well?

So many questions filled my head but I had no way of answering them. I had obviously found what my mom had left me but why did I need to find it, was there a reason I needed to see the battle I had just witnessed.

My father’s words rang in my ears. ‘Find you light Theo’, I didn't know what he meant when he first said it but now I had more of and idea. Other Theo from the vision had light coming from his hands, did that mean I was able to control light like my father. Was it even possible for children of Apollo to be able to do that, I’d never heard of one before that could.

More and more questions flooded my head making me stressed. I thought about maybe talking to Emma about it, she was more likely to know what it meant than I did. And even if she didn't she was smart enough to help me figure it out.

I was just about to head down stairs and catch up with Emma and Bailey when I heard a crash coming from the kitchen. Someone was in the house. I assumed it was just Emma and Bailey back from the rocks, but then I heard a deep voice swear.

“Let me go!” I heard some else say, I knew it was Bailey, there was no way I could mistake his British accent. My heart jumped when I realised that someone had Bailey.

Quickly I put my mom’s sketch book into my back pack and rushed down stairs.

When I got there I found two guys and a girl in their twenties standing in a semicircle around the base of the stairs, they were waiting for me. It struck me straight away that they looked familiar, then I realised they were the ones from my vision. The red haired girl, the tall boy who stabbed Scott and the one with bright blue eyes that I was fighting.

Bright eyes was stood in the middle and had his arm over Bailey shoulder like they were best buddies. I could see Bailey was terrified, his violet eyes were wide with fear and I was pretty sure he was shaking.

“Look at that,” bright eyes said, “we’re all here.” A cruel smile crept onto his face as he squeezed Bailey’s shoulder.
