Percy and the Sword of Time
Percy P.O.V.
I ran from them, hearing; first the reports of rifles, then the high pitch whine of the bullet's deadly songs. "Fools," I thought, "mortal weapons can't hurt me." Barley had the thought left my head, when a slug slammed into my left arm (AN. Is he right or left handed? I forget) "GODS!" I snarled through clenched teeth. I had forgotten that they can, and I cost me my sword arm. I just hoped that I wouldn't lose it, as I was kind of attached to it (AN. Ha-ha, get it? Attached, it's his arm? No? Well I thought it was funny) Finally, I saw light up ahead; my ticket outta here, the West-bound freight train to Missouri. I ran harder; the train was speeding up, I jumped… The good news? I made it. The bad news? I used my left arm to haul myself up. I nearly fell unconscious that second, but knew if I did, I would be killed for sure, I may be an awesome son of Poseidon, but I ain't train-proof. So I pulled myself up the rest of the way, but right as I was about to get in and close the door, I felt my all-important pen, Riptide, start to slide out of my pocket. Making a wild grab with my right hand, I just managed to pinch it right at the top. I knew that if I didn't act now, I would lose Riptide forever. Because for some reason the enchantments that allowed Riptide to return to my pocket were null at the moment. So with my last bit of strength, and consciousness, I pulled, and jumped, forward, into the compartment. At that same moment, the train slowed, and the door shut, then latched again.
AN. So, what do you guys think? I would love some reviews on what should befall Percy next. If it was unclear, somehow Riptide transported Percy back in time to the Civil War Era. Also this is my first story, so I just randomly got this idea out of nowhere. Oh and I don't own PJO (dam) that's RR's job. All I own is this story, so, yeah. FISH OUT!
