-Sam and raine
Percy 1- Rachel dropped her ice cream on me.
*Pant*Pant*
Great. A good start to begin the story; I, running with a strange looking dark and a British looking girl trying to outwit ferocious monsters.
Tell me again why I have to meet crazy tyrants every time I start a story. It's starting to get redundant. I mean, really.
Okay. First, let me tell you first what happen before I got chased by ugly looking monsters. It started with an ice cream. Gee, I love ice cream particularly on summer time especially blue ones.
Anyway back to the beginning, I, Annabeth and Rachel where at an ice cream parlor. It was on late summer so the temperature was like 50 degrees. Ice cream was the best solution if you don't want to get heat stroke.
Annabeth and Rachel were talking about landscapes and ancient architecture. Boring. I got stucked licking ice cream and tuning out whatever it was about Great Wall of China.
On the parlor's windowpane, I saw a boy, about my age, with a dark complexion and a curly hair, looking puzzled at everywhere. A girl that looks like British came by and said something to him. They looked lost. I don't think many people get lost in Manhattan, maybe they're tourist.
I was still looking at the two baffled tourist when suddenly Rachel abruptly stood up. My first thought? Not again. I looked at her eyes; it was green, smoky and glassy. She raised her hand and dropped her ice cream on me which by the way was CHOCOLATE! Men, it takes hours to clean the smear. Do oracles do that to their friends every time they have ice cream at hand? That's inhuman!
Then the out of place prophecy came;
In Egypt's hands the world must fall,
Only one can answer the forbidden call
A hero for both sides will be a known soul,
As fiend fiends will save us all.
With that, Rachel collapsed… as Usual.
"Egypt? What does that have to do with us?" Annabeth asked me puzzled.
"I have no idea. We better tell Chiron." I said urgently. Whatever the prophecy about, it doesn't spell good news.
When Rachel came along at last, we decided to take the gray taxi since it's much faster compared to taking the bus.
Annabeth took a drachma and shouted "Stop, Chariot of Damnation!" in Ancient Greek.
She threw her coined into the street and the drachma sank right through the asphalt and disappeared.
We impatiently waited for a moment.
Then, the asphalt darkened. It was like de ja vu. It melted into a rectangular pool about the size of a parking space. Furthermore, a smoky gray taxi erupted from the ooze.
The passenger window rolled down. I expected an old woman will stuck he head out but instead a Minotaur did.
"Run!" I shouted, shoving both Annabeth and Rachel out of the axe of the Minotaur's reach.
We ran hastily. I was half dragging and half carrying Rachel for she still hadn't recovered completely from drowsiness.
"More are chasing us!" shrieked Annabeth.
I looked back and saw that she was deadpan right. There were about 30 ugly monsters chasing us. Some of it I couldn't name.
I wanted to fight but because Rachel was half hugging and clinging at me,(Okay, I know what you're thinking. It was merely a because she's still feeble nothing else)I would have a hard time doing it so I got no choice but to think of a better plan to escape from those monsters.
We kept running until we saw an intersection. I had an Idea.
"Annabeth take Rachel and go to the opposite alley. I'll be a decoy."I instructed Annabeth slowing down a little.
"We'll meet you at the port" She said hurriedly then took Rachel out of my arms.
I got my pen, Riptide out of my pocket and uncapped it.
I faced the monsters who are gaining their speed directly at me. "You want a fight? I'll give you one" I bellowed then advanced at them.
Once I slashed some monsters, I was on an auto pilot all over again. Slash. Block. Rip. Block. Slash. Only when I realized that they didn't disintegrated when I kill them did I run further into the alley opposite to where Annabeth and Rachel had taken.
While running, I kept on thinking why the monsters didn't disintegrated when I slammed with the two persons I'm running with now. The one I saw in the Ice Cream Parlor.
