Third Person
Percy laced his fingers through Annabeth's as he thought about what they had gone through together. (Aqua: Omigods, I forgot. Setting is after the Second Giant War - but the summary says so, so whatevs.) He had almost died too many times to count. She had taken that poisoned knife for him. They had defeated Kronos. He had lost his memory and somehow got to Camp Jupiter (Hera…), with only one memory: Annabeth. She and his mom had cried every day, not knowing where Percy was. They reunited, only to fall into Tartarus. They had survived Tartarus, lost Damasen and Bob, closed the Doors of Death, and kicked Queen Dirt Face's butt. To sum it up - they had been through a lot.
So, it was worth it to go to that comedy show. As they walked towards the ticket booth, they chatted casually. The ticket seller looked at them strangely, but said, "Sorry, all of these tickets are sold out. Try next show."
Percy asked, "When is that?"
The man replied, "In one and a half hours."
Since there was nothing else to do, they just sat on a bench and waited outside. After they had talked for a couple minutes (mostly about Camp Half-Blood), they realized that the seller was looking at them strangely. Not the "your clothes are on backwards" strangely, not the "you're weird" strangely, not the "you sound like an idiot" strangely (though Percy got that look a lot), but "you look like my next meal" strangely.
"Percy?" Annabeth whispered warily.
Before they could do anything, he transformed and pounced.
Annabeth's POV
We barely managed to roll out of the way. Percy pulled out Riptide and I pulled out my ivory sword.
"Fools," the no-longer-a-ticket-seller said. Well, he didn't just say it. His voice was a hiss. Or… was it a she?
A Fury, I realized. But before I could think more, she attacked me.
We could barely dodge her attacks. By the end of two minutes, we couldn't do any more.
She towered above Percy and I, lying on the ground. We were done for.
"NOT SO FAST, YOU. NO ONE HARMS THEM." A voice rang out.
Suddenly, out of nowhere, there was a lightning bolt. The Fury vaporized.
"Hello, cuz. Hi, Annabeth. How ya doin'?" Thalia grinned down at us on the sidewalk.
Aqua: I KNOW, I KNOW: YOU WERE EXPECTING RANDOM CRAZINESS. NOT THERE YET! WAIT AND SEE, I'LL GET THERE. DON'T WORRY, YOU GUYS CAN STILL BRIGHTEN YOUR DAY WITH SOME "AQUA HAD WAY TOO MUCH SUGAR" HYPER-CRAZINESS! THE NEXT CHAPTER WILL PROBABLY COME OUT VERY SOON - IT'S THE WEEKEND! HOORAY! WUT?
