LUKES POV
We were exhausted, but somehow Thalia and I managed to run down 72nd street, well it looked more like an alley than any street I've been on. We sat down and saw a manticore disintegrate with a look of shock on its face. We walked further down the alley and saw a little girl about seven; she wore a lavender gown with long sleeves and she was barefoot and she had a small bronze knife and a crowbar. She had elbow length blonde hair and her face was covered in grime and monster slime, her big blue eyes gazed at us with a mixture of fury, mercy, and fear. If I wasn't so fast she would've brained me. "NO! NO MORE MONSTERS! GO AWAY! NO MORE MONSTERS!" she screamed, I grabbed her wrist she flinched the crowbar skittered across the alley. She took out her knife and she stabbed my wrist Thalia grabbed her knife. The little girl started whacking me. "We're not monsters!" Thalia said. Slowly she stopped fighting. "You're like me?" she asked suspiciously. "Yes." We both said. "And you won't take me back to them? Cause if you're going to I'm not going with you. Not after what they did." She said venomously, "What did they do?" I asked, Thalia shot me a look. She burst into tears saying repeatedly, "I didn't mean to!" "What did you do?" I asked she cried harder, "LUKE!" Thalia screamed punching me I flinched, "No, its okay. He just wants to know." She said sniffling, she pulled the sleeve up on her left wrist; it was bleeding from multiple cuts. "Oh my gods! Are you okay?" Thalia asked. "I-I-I didn't mean to!" she said. "Its okay, whats your name kiddo?" I asked. "Katrina Valentine, but I prefer Kat." She said. "I'm Luke and this is Thalia." She nodded, pulling the sleeves down on her wrists. "Where are we going, Luke?" she asked.
KATS P.O.V
"Where are we going, Luke?" I asked. No reply. "Luke, where are we going? Hello? Can you hear me?" I asked. No reply. "LUKE? THALIA?" I called. No answer, I heard something. It was like an animal leg and a bronze leg, I stood frozen. Then I turned around seeing a girl that towered above me, she looked like my mom; she had emerald green eyes and long flowing waist length caramel hair. "M-m-mom?" I stuttered. Then I heard Luke and Thalia call me, "KAT! NO!" I got mad for no reason, "NO! YOU BETRAYED ME! I CAN'T TRUST YOU!" I called back. The girl I presumed was my mother held out her hand and I took it and she led me to the end of the alley and she said, "Don't let them get to you, dear. I'll take care of them."
