Countdown to Infestation
168 hours to Infestation
Annabeth had broken up with Percy. She didn't want to meet him anymore.
After those horrible times then she had realized she and Percy were not suitable. After the sweet love wears off, what's left of it is realization of the incompatibility of each other.
Now, she lived on a sunny little neighbourhood in Seattle. Even though they used to stay there together, she still liked the city itself.
Now, she lived beside a quiant old man, Mr. Hembridge, with a neatly trimmed lawn.
Now, she had peace.
-The next day-
139 hours to Infestation
"Hello there, Ms. Chase!" That was Mr. Hembridge.
"Hello to you too! Say, who've you got there?" Annabeth replied.
Beside Mr. Hembridge was a woman in her thirites. Stunning, with long blonde hair like hers, and a black dress.
"This is Nadia! I met her while I was on the beach yesterday." Nadia had black eyes, and her arm possesively around Mr. Hembridge's waist.
"I'll leave you to your business!" Annabeth smiled as she went back into the house.

A dog barked, and the wind breezily ran across Annabeth's face as she bent down to pick up the newspaper. She hadn't seen Mr. Hembridge lately. He must be sick.
However…she DID notice quite a few spiders crawling around here and there. These few days she had called for the pest company to come and clear it away, but they seemed bent on coming back.
She really wished Percy was here now.

Next day. A foul odour was coming from his garbage cans. Must be those goddamned raccoons again.
But…no…there was no sign of racoons. Just…spiders…again...
Annabeth had been freaked out by those freaky spiders. She told herself,"I better call the past company to come everyday."
41 hours to Infestation
The person on the other line of the phone sounded bewildered when Annabeth made her request.
23 hours to Infestation
Mr. Hembridge hadn't been out of his house for days now. His lawn was yellow, and overrun by spiders.
His curtains were all shut, and all was silent.
Annabeth wondered what had happened? Perhaps he his neighbour wanted some time alone with..what's her name…Nadia. Annabeth locked her doors and closed her windows as tight as possible. But the spiders always seemed to be able to enter her house. She was now on the verge of insanity.
10 minutes to Infestation
A loud hiiiiiissssss had woken Annabeth up. It came from Mr. Hembridge's house. Hiiiiissss wasn't a normal sound of…private business.
He had to go take a look.
Armed with her knife, she braced herself, braved the yellow lawn, and nudged the door open. It was unlocked. Not a good sign.
4 minutes to Infestation
Webs. Everywhere. Tables overturned, and an eeire indigo-ish light washed over everything, as dust floated in the stale air.
Mr. Hembridge, dead.
"Hello."
Nadia!
She had eight legs. Eight eyes.
And the bulbous abdomen of a blakc widow. Of course!
"Archane... You..."
She got her knife ready, and tried not to show her fear.
30 seconds to Infestation
She took her phone out with trembling hands and dialed Percy's number.
"Percy! Help! Help- AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
3…2…1…
INFESTATION
My first try. Pls Read and review. I still think it isn't very freaky, though. And not very clear.
