Hey guys! This is my first fanfiction, so if you have comments or concerns please tell me! Also, I will likely need suggestions...

I do not own PJ, sadly:(

Annabeth's POV

"Percy, we have to tell my mom. If she finds out and we didn't tell her..." I mutter under my breath on the crowded bus, glancing around. Everyone else is busy. We had told everyone, Poseidon, Sally and Paul, my dad Frederick and even Chiron and the campers at Camp Half Blood that we were expecting twin daughters. But we had somehow managed to keep my mother, the goddess of wisdom, in the dark.

"I know. You want to go now or later?" Percy asked.

"Now. They're due in a month anyway, so we might as well. I just hope that she wouldn't get mad and like, steal them from the hospital or something."

"I wouldn't do that, Annabeth. At the very least I would just borrow them for a day."

"Mother! Oh, we were just on our way to Mount Olympus to tell you..." My voice trailed off under Athena's stern gaze. Then, quick as a flash, she waved her hand and the padding on the seat cushions vanished. Me and Percy tumbled to the ground, shocked, and as soon as we got up again, Athena was gone.

"We have arrived at Freeport (A/N I think it's about 30 minutes away from the Long Island Sound)." The grumpy driver yelled into the loudspeaker, obviously not understanding that you talk into the intercom and the sound comes out the loudspeakers. I stood up and shoved my way through excited tourists and citizens eager to get home in time for dinner.

As I got off the bus, a sudden growl sounded behind me, next to a poster for the musical "Finding Neverland". A large black shape edged out into the open from the shadows behind the poster.

I am not ashamed to admit that I screamed. I'm sure anyone except maybe Percy would scream at the sight of a hellhound in downtown Freeport right next to your house.

A/N- Sorry to leave on a cliffhanger like that, and such a short chapter, too. I promise the next chapter will be longer.

Who is the hellhound- Mrs.O'Leary or something darker? Did Hades send it? Review and I'll update so you can see!
