The Chloe Chronicles: The Lost Goddess

Chloe's POV- I become number one and feel like number two

Chloe began to panic. Nico wasn't responding to her desperate cries, and breath wheezed from his mouth. Chloe began to sob, she thought she had helped him, but instead she turned him into a squeaky toy for a dog! The water had healed her other times before, why wouldn't it help Nico?
She held Nico's head in her arms, thinking of what to do next. She couldn't leave him like this, he was obviously hurt. She had to do something.
Percy had said to go to Thalia if it was an emergency, but Nico's arm was healed. Maybe he just needed to be woken up?
Chloe looked around the cabin for something that could work when her mind wandered to a cartoon she had glimpsed as a child. The bird was trying to wake up the owl and had dropped a large, 200 ton weight on its head, causing a red bump to grow, but alas, not waking up the bird.
Chloe shook her head. She couldn't make Nico's injuries worse, nor did Percy possibly have an anvil light enough for her to carry.
Chloe looked back down at Nico's sleeping frame and a tear slipped from her cheek onto his chin.
"You seem worried." The voice of her giagiĆ” taunted. "Too bad he'll never wake up!"
Chloe shook her head, covering her ears. "Shut up you witch!"
Her giagiĆ” cackled in response and Chloe tucked head closer against Nico's chest. She was dead, she couldn't be talking to her. This was real, not fake. Nico could not be another dream, he was real.
Nico's chest rose and fell softly and Chloe curled up against his chest, hiding her face in strands of blonde wisps.
She shut her eyes, trying to fall asleep. It didn't work. Gods, this reminded Chloe too much of her Aunt. Chloe's small hands trying to revive the woman she loved, and failing.
Chloe wiped the tears from her eyes and brushed a stray hair from Nico's forehead. Her hands shook and she drew them back, clutching them to her chest.
Chloe bowed her head, shutting her eyes tightly. "Please, help him." She whispered. "Please-"
Chloe shut her eyes, the tears streaming down her cheeks when she felt another prescience in the room. She opened them, and saw a girl, struggling to lift Nico from the floor.
"Well," she said. "Aren't you going to help me?"
Chloe stood up, lifting Nico's legs and carried him over to a bed. His breathing was still shallow and Chloe felt like curling up into a ball and crying again.
Instead, the stranger took her hand and led her over to a chair. "Sit, you don't want to get woozy."
Chloe's vision blurred and she looked again to the girl. Green mist floated around them, burning her eyes.
"Who are you?" Chloe said.
The girl held up her hand. "Listen, I don't have much time. I am about to spout one like an sea sick kid on a pony ride. Where is Chiron?"
Chloe shrugged. "I don't know. This is the Poseidon cabin."
The girls eyes widened. "It's- it's true?"
Chloe nodded. "Who-"
The girl pressed her fingers to Chloe's lips. "Listen kid, you are about to come out of this daze and become very sick alright? I need you to find Chiron in the morning and tell him that the golden light surfaces. Ugh, I can't...spout right here...not now."
"Spout what? And why do I need to tell Chiron about a light?"
"Listen to me!" The girl screamed, her face becoming beaded with sweat. She grabbed Chloe by the collar of her shirt and took a large breath. "You..are..in..terrible..danger!"
Chloe definitely wanted to curl up in a ball now.
"You must...convince Chiron...before..she..takes..you."
"Who?"
"Gah!" The girl yelped and she fell backward onto the floor, becoming consumed by the green mist. Chloe stood up in her chair and blinked. The girl was right. She was becoming ill. Chloe ran towards to door, and retched what felt like her guts out.
Did I just have a dream? Chloe thought. No..in dreams you can't feel.
Chloe looked quickly back in the cabin, finding Nico stirring awake. She wiped the vomit from her mouth and shut the door, her vision still blurry.
"Chloe," Nico said, groaning. "What the Hades happened?"
Chloe opened her mouth to answer him but a wave of nausea hit her again and she collapsed to floor, holding her head inside a nearby trash can.
Nico made it over to her from the bed, and patted her shoulder. Chloe felt relieved when she felt his touch on her shoulder.
"Are you alright?" Nico asked.
Chloe shook her head and slumped back into his arms. His voice sounded as if it was fading. Chloe was confused though. That normally happened before she had a daydream. It was nighttime and, she didn't typically receive them at night.
Her head pounded and her stomach churned. Chloe groaned as Nico pressed his hand to her forehead.
"Gods almighty," He hissed. "You have a fever."
Chloe held up her hand to his cheek, pressing it to his skin. "I just need rest."
Nico shook his head. "At least drink some nectar."
Chloe shrugged as the liquid was passed to her. She took a few sips before Nico took it away and she rested her head against him. Her eyes wandered to his arm and she ran her fingers over the once bloody skin.
"You're...healed." She croaked.
Nico gave her a small smile. "I'll be fine. You should get some sleep. You uh, have a big day tomorrow."
Chloe sat up, remembering the girl. "This girl, she said, I have to talk to Chiron."
Nico nodded, passively ignoring her. "I know. You can talk to him tomorrow. Right now you need sleep."
Chloe tried to protest again but her head began to ache so she closed her eyes and tried to focus her mind on sleep. Nico reminded beside her, an arm draped around her shoulder.
"You must speak to Chiron." A voice echoed in Chloe's head. "You are the one."
As Chloe's body gave into sleep, she began to think. Maybe I am the one, maybe I am something.
I came and now everything is going to change.
