Annabeth Chase
The Trip
I was in pain when I woke up. Its pretty usual. Nothing out of the ordinary but atleast I'm not covered in blood. Slowly I sat up, rolling my shoulders trying to get the stiffness out of it. I close my eyes. Maybe today will be the day we finally escape. The day Percy and I finally leave. It's so strange for me. I don't regret being with Percy and therefore being trapped with him. I just don't understand why. Percy... My percy. Percy has been my best friend since we were 11. We met at a camp and every year since we got closer and finally on his 16th brithday we became a couple. I swear he cannot take hints, I have to be upfront with him. I remember when I first kissed him. He was so surprised. It reminds me of when we were captured and now we're treated like lab rats. I frown at the memory but it vanishes. I don't want to think of that anymore.
"Percy?" I whisper, my voice barely louder than birds chirping outside.
He doesn't reply. I can hardly even see him. We're in a small cell with a tiny square window. I can see the outline of Percy's face. His handsome rough face. He looks so calm that I could believe we were in his cabin at camp and we had just fallen asleep. I have the urge to kiss him. Just so he would wake up and I could see his beautiful green eyes.
"Annabeth, I know I'm fabulous but stop staring." Percy says half asleep.
"Do you always have to joke around?" I ask, honestly.
"You do call me seaweed brain for a reason. I have to live up to the reputation."
"If I recall correctly that was actually because you went for a swim in the lake and when you came back you had seaweed on your head."
He smiles. "You know me, Wise girl."
I smile. Even in dire situations he makes me happy. I don't know how-
"Get up!" A gruff voice yells. I can hear the smile as he spits the next words. "Or we'll send Arai."
Percy visibly shudders and pales. I probably look worse. The arai consist of 5 people that basically torture you. They torture Percy the most. I walk over to Percy quickly and help him stand. I know for a fact that his wounds aren't healed. He doesn't make a sound when he stands. The titans, as they call themselves, rush in and handcuff Percy first, then me. We are escorted out of the building into a van and I finally notice that Percy has a tattoo burned into his skin. Its their logo. Tartarus.
This place really is Tartarus, I think to myself.
XxX
I don't want to think about where we are going. Instead I think of my dad. I wonder if he even notices that I'm not there. If he even knew I wasn't at camp either. He shipped me off to that place when I was 7. Camp was basically home for me. If only Mal-
I'm jostled into Percy. I look up into his frantic eyes.
"What was that?" he asks.
"I don't know."
We hear gun shots and see the Titans struggling against something. A canister it thrown into the van and suddenly Percy and I fall asleep.
I just realized that cover up is like a play on words.
