This is one of my first fanfictions. The story is by me and my friend Betty. Constructive criticism is welcome. The cover is by me!
Enjoy!
"This is nice," said Lizzy. Lizzy Irving and her best friend Alexis Sky, were at the beach in California. Lizzy was Canadian at an average height with mid-back length brown hair and sea green eyes. She was a nice and easygoing girl, who got along with others well and went along with her friends. Alexis was Canadian and slightly taller than Lizzy with jagged, shoulder length hair that was up in a ponytail, a bright blue streak in her sidebangs, and sky blue eyes. She was a rebel, with a spunky, tomboyish, and adventurous personality.
They had just finished their volunteer work for school credits and today they got to start vacation. Their parents had let them stay in California for a few days as a reward for doing the volunteering. "I wish it could be like this every day," said Alexis. They breathed in the salty ocean air as they relaxed on the sand.
"I'm gonna take a short stroll around," said Lizzy.
"Okay"
Lizzy got up and started to walk towards the sea. The sky was blue, the water was so clear, thought Lizzy. I wonder what we are going to do tomorrow. She looked back at Alexis. Suddenly, a giant green tail whipped her into the water. "Ahhhhhhhh!" yelled Lizzy.
"Lizzyyyyyy!" cried Alexis.
She ran towards Lizzy with her heart pounding. By then, Lizzy had already been underwater for around 30 seconds. Alexis jumped into the water to search for her.
While she was sinking, Lizzy slowly gained consciousness. She opened her eyes and gazed at her surroundings. She gasped for breath, then realized she was underwater. She started to panic, sure she was going to choke and drown. But then she realized she was fine. She was breathing underwater! But how was this possible? Oh no. She thought. Alexis is still looking for me. I'd better swim up to the surface.
Since she was so deep underwater, it took her some time to surface.
Finally Lizzy reached the top. She felt so much better once she took a breath outside of the water. She was still shocked about the thing that knocked her into the sea and what had happened underwater. Lizzy spotted Alexis splashing around in the ocean, looking for her. She swam towards her.
"Alexis!" shouted Lizzy.
"Lizzy! I was worried about you! How are you still alive?"asked Alexis.
"I don't know." Lizzy had a thousand questions in her mind. How was she still alive? Why wasn't she wet? Who or what knocked her into the water?
Lizzy walked out of the water with Alexis following. Just then, two boys and two girls came.
One of the boys was handsome, with messy jet black hair and sea-green eyes. Holding his hand stood a beautiful girl with curly blonde hair, stormy gray eyes, and tanned skin. The other boy had closed-cropped blonde hair, sky-blue eyes, a little scar on the corner of his lip, and glasses with a stunning girl that had choppy and uneven brown hair and eyes that were so beautiful they seemed to change colors. They all looked much older than Alexis and Lizzy, who were just fourteen. They looked to be around seventeen.
"Hi." said the boy with black hair. "We saw you coming out of the water back there. Not that we don't know what it was, but do you know what hit you?" said the girl with blonde hair.
"I don't know" replied Lizzy. "Who are you?" demanded Alexis at the same time.
"I'm Annabeth. This is Percy, Piper and Jason." She motioned towards the boy with black hair, then the girl and the boy with blue eyes.
"We'd love it if you could talk with us for a second."
