Yup. I've now got a MR/PJ! WHEEE!
So, let's pretend the gang is an year older than norm. 16, 13, 9, 7...
If there is any similarity to Echo's awesome 'Spread Your Wings' story, don't worry, she's allowing a little similarity.
So, yeah... this is a short Prologue. Chapters will actually be longer. Sorta depressing at first, but trust me! It will live up to it's title!
10 reviews and I'll post sooner!
Prologue
Static. Then suddenly the video loop started-again.
She watched the figures on screen, a hollow look in her eyes.
A boy and a girl were talking in mute voices. Finally the girl took a list from the boy. The list was covered with misspelled words, all of them a sort of junk food.
The girl walked into the convenience store behind the bench. The boy sat there, leaning on his packed bags.
Then suddenly a sports car pulled up. Not close to the boy, a couple of feet away. It parked there. Two supermodel guys walked out of the two front seats. They both walked into a small cafe behind the boy.
A couple of minutes later they came out. One of them was holding a cup of coffee and a bag of donuts in his hands.
They got extremely close to the boy. Suddenly, the one who was holding nothing whipped out his hand at an inhuman speed and touch the boy out in the neck. In seconds, the boy slumped over.
The back door of the car flew open, and a clawed hand flew out, grabbing the boy. He disappered into the car. The door slammed shut. The car drove off.
The girl came out a few minutes later. She screamed a name silently on the screen. And then she started looking through the place the boy was sitting. A needle, hypodermic. No signs of violence, but something was wrong. Then she whipped her head around and stared right at the screen.
The last part of the footage was a hand reaching up, up, up...
Annabeth watched the footage.
Percy was gone.
