Thalia and Luke sat next to eachother on the ground. Annabeth was asleep. Luke held two quarters in his hand. That was all the money they had.
They were hiding in the woods near a small town. In that town was a store. Just one of those tiny stores, like c.v.s. but smaller.
"We need money."stated Thalia whispering so she wouldn't wake up Annabeth.
"Forget money, we need food." replied Luke.
"We need money to get food, stupid!"
"Not necessarily." A slight grin appeared on Luke's face.
"Stealing from the store in this town would mean having to leave fast, which we have no real way of doing do we?"
"We would just need to run to a safe hiding place."
"Okay, when do we do it?"
"Tomorrow"
"Great, now let's get some sleep" Thalia found a spot to lie down on the ground. They went to sleep.
