Chapter 1
Annabeth
Annabeth groaned and put her head on her desk. She was in her room aboard the Argo II, and she was very tired. She had been doing research on-
Thunk.
What? Annabeth stood and opened the door that led from her room to the hallway with seven other doors that led to identical rooms as hers.
"Hazel! Are you okay?" Annabeth hurried over to her friend, who lay on the floor at the bottom of the stairs.
"Yeah," Hazel pushed herself into a sitting position and pushed her hair out of her face. "Leo asked me to bring a spare piece of Celestial Bronze to the engine room-" she nodded to a large piece of the metal, hammered flat in a rough circle about three feet in diameter. "-and I misjudged where the stairs were."
"Everything good?" Jason came down the stairs from above deck. "Are you hurt?" He asked Hazel.
"Um..I'm good, but what's that?" She pointed to a small cupboard at the base of the steps. It was painted white, with a wooden black handle. The door had intricate carvings, small and detailed in the two by two inch space. "Has that always been there?" Hazel frowned at it.
"I don't remember that being there. I'll get Leo." Jason turned and climbed back up the stairs, where Annabeth and Hazel heard him talking to Leo. Annabeth drew her sword and tapped the cupboard.
"It's hollow," Annabeth looked at Hazel, who looked as confused as she felt.
"Why would Leo put that there?" Hazel pondered.
"I don't think he did," Annabeth said grimly.
"Monsters. But, what type of monster would put something like that there? And what use is it?" Hazel asked, puzzled. Leo Jason and Piper came down the stairs, Leo pulling a screwdriver out of his tool belt. Hazel and Annabeth stood and let Leo inspect the door.
"Just wood. No metal behind it. Well, not and that I could tell." Hazel told Leo, who nodded. Jason, Hazel and Piper pulled out their weapons.
"Be ready. I think it's empty, what could fit In there? But just in case, don't let your guard down." Leo said. "Ready?" He looked at Jason, Hazel, Annabeth, and Piper, who tightened their grips on their weapons.
"Yes." Piper said confidently.
"Good. On three. One; two; three!" The door flew open, blasting out a whirlwind of air and throwing Leo backwards. He crashed into Piper and Jason's legs, and they went down. Hazel screamed, but her voice was ripped from her mouth. Annabeth was trying to back up, pulling Piper away, but the cupboard was now acting as a vacuum. Annabeth's feet were pulled from the floor and sucked towards the door. Her head cracked into the floor with a sickening thunk and she was yanked through the cupboard, which widened from its two inch space to let her through. Hazel tried to get a grip on the edge of the doorframe as she tumbled through the cupboard, but it was no use. Her hands may as well have been coated in butter, and so she was also pulled through after Annabeth. The winds suddenly died, before the door snapped shut and the cupboard vanished forever.
How did you like it? Please please review! This is my first fanfic, and I would love reviews. And, if in the future you notice any references from other books please say in the reviews that you do! I'll keep doing them if people like them. Also, if I have several chapters up and you are not quite on that last chapter yet, don't feel like you can't still review! I would love that, just please say what chapter you are on. I love constructive criticism, as long as you tell me why you don't like it. If you just say "I don't like it" that doesn't help me. Another thing is Please no swearing! Respectable language is appreciated, especially if younger people are reading. If you have any suggestions feel free to give them a voice! I may not take all requests, but I'll do my best. Thank you for reading! :)
