Percy jackson and the revenge of
kronos...
I held my breath. As Annabeth and I crept through the damp,muddy forest we knew what we were waiting for. It was the forth tournament of capture the flag this month and, for the first time of belonging to Camp-Half-Bloof, I was afraid...
We knew exactly what we were up against.Athena, Apollo and my cabin were attacking Ares,Hephaestus and Hermes.Apollo's cabin were scattered across the forest,Athena had set up some traps near our flag, Tyson had a huuuugggeee!! flaming war-axe and was practicing against a tree nymph.Needless to say, Tyson was winning.
Suddenly!A voice in the distance rumbled,"Lock shields!Hold positions!!"
A dozen Hephaestus kids broke out from under Zeus's fist and raised their swords and axes in a threatening manner.Several arrows sprouted onto their sheilds,and they started to back off.But then the same voice shouted,"Stay you cowards!Stand your ground!" This time I recognised the voice.
"Clarisse!!" Annabeth yelled.I knew why she was agitatad. Clarisse was well known for her 'uncompassionateness' and never retreated, even if her team was losing a battle. And the worst thing about her was that she never showed mercy.. She leapt at me, hoping to make me lose balance,I sidestepped easily.She slashed at my legs as I hopped onto Zeus fist, missing my shins by five millemetres. I turned and saw Tyson taking on several of the Ares cabin.I thought he was outnumbered but he just slashed a wide arc and sent the Ares cabin flying.I only just had time to duck before Clarisse chopped at my neck.
"Stand ready!My bow!" Chiron shouted.
"Chiron?Why did you..."
I stopped talking in my tracks.. Just outside the border of Camp-Half-Blood..Were...
Twenty-two Empousa
