Hey everyone! I hope you like this, I wrote it mostly during the early hours of the morning so don't expect it to be any good. It just popped into my head so I wrote it. There was originally more to this chapter but I decided to split it up, so I'm sorry for the shortness. And to my Vampire Academy and Twilight readers, I'm sorry for not updating in probably 6 months now but I can't seem to get that story right! Trust me I've tried over and over again. I must have at least six different versions of the next chapter but I think they all stink. So sorry again, and know I haven't given up yet!
DISCLAIMER: I own… my cat, a pencil, $3.62, and a little piece of paper stuck to the back of the closet door, but not Merlin or Percy Jackson and the Olympians. Oh yeah, and I own my brother at soccer but I don't think that's what I was talking about…
Percy Annabeth Nico and Thalia were training at camp when Zeus got bored and decided to send his daughter, nephews and Annabeth back in time. He flipped a coin between Camelot during Merlin and Arthur's time and the time of the dinosaurs. Though he was greatly disappointed when he found that he couldn't watch Percy be chased by a T-rex he stuck to the coin toss and sent them to Camelot. Then he sat back and watched the show, sincerely hoping that Percy got executed.
(A/N I would like to say that this first part is taken directly from the Gates of Avalon episode. And that my favorite color is orange!)
I was wearing my armor on a hunting trip with Merlin, holding up a crossbow, and getting ready to kill the deer that was in front of me. I crept forward silently until Merlin, being the idiot that he is, bumped in to me.
"What is it?" he stage whispered curiously.
"You really are a total buffoon aren't you Merlin?!" I yelled out at him in agitation, for by now the deer had surely run off.
"I was just asking" Merlin defended himself, still oblivious to what he had done.
"Who, me or the deer? We're supposed to be hunting. It requires speed, stealth, and an agile mind." I asked loudly and sarcastically. I got annoyed and hit Merlin on the forehead when he stared into the forest, looking confused as if the deer would still be there.
"At least you can get by in two out of three then." He mumbled under his breath.
Suddenly, thunder rumbled above head and we stopped arguing. "We had better get back to the castle, don't want to get caught in a storm." I stated.
"You think? It doesn't look like a storm, Arthur." Merlin mused.
"So? It's thundering out! I really don't --" I stopped short at the sound of voices in the distance.
"Where are we?" One voice asked. It was definitely female and very confused.
"I dunno; it's really weird, one minute we were just training and the next we show up here." A second female voice said, but this one sounded more like a leader and a little rougher.
"Oh crud, we're screwed if both Thalia and Annabeth don't know." This time it was a male voice that spoke. He sounded very sardonic.
"Yeah, maybe there's water near by, though. That way I can stop bleeding." A last guy said.
"Wait, you're bleeding?" The second girl asked, surprised. (In hearing this, Zeus got up from his throne on Olympus and started partying for the injury of his nephew. Then Athena and Ares joined him as Poseidon glared at them from the corner.)
"Yeah, someone, more specifically Annabeth, forgot she had a knife in her hand when we came here and stabbed me while trying to grab hold of me." He said pointedly.
At this point we were both confused. I motioned for Merlin to follow me, as I crept up to where we could now see the four people. They were all about fifteen and wearing some sort of heavy looking armor, like really heavy. I mean, the armor the knights and I wear is heavy but this looked like almost twice that and they all wore it as if it were nothing. It didn't even seem to weigh them down. One boy, who I assumed had been the last to talk, had a bloody gash down his arm. The wound itself was hidden by his armor but blood was leaking out everywhere. He also had jet black hair, sea green eyes, and was the only one not carrying a weapon. A second boy also had black hair, but his eyes were all black. They had white like normal people too but where the color is supposed to be it was black. He also held a sword made of some shiny black material. Two girls stood side by side, one was holding a dagger so I assumed that to be Annabeth. Annabeth had long, wavy blonde hair and wise gray eyes. The other girl, Thalia, wore the same thing as everyone else but instead of having a helmet with a horsehair plume on top she had a simple silver circlet atop her head. For a weapon she carried a bow and arrows and a grotesque shield. She had black hair like the two boys and her electric blue eyes were stunning.
Thalia apparently heard us approaching and turned sharply towards us, the rest followed suit.
