KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK
Percy woke up startled. He turned to check his digital clock. It read 3:00. He looked out his window, seeing that it was still dark outside. Three in the morning? Well, he must have just been hearing things. He turned the other way and pulled the sheets back up.
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK
Nope, not hearing things. As he got out of bed in his shark pajamas, he wondered who was disturbing his beauty sleep. It better be something important, or someone would get a good yelling.
BANG BANG BANG
"Chill out! I'm coming!" Percy yelled. This unknown visitor was really starting to irk him. Honestly, who doesn't have the ability to WAIT? He walked past his new aquarium filled with clownfish, to the sea-blue door of his cabin, and pulled it open. Jason was standing there, wearing his bright red "OH MY GODS!" t-shirt and some skinny jeans to go with it.
"What the heck do you want?" Percy asked, mildly annoyed. "Nice Jammies," Jason said. "It's three in the morning!" Percy exclaimed. "CALM DOWN! Can we talk inside?" Jason asked. "Ugh. Fine." Percy said, irritated. He had stayed up late the previous day playing truth or dare, and he was seriously sleep deprived. He needed his beauty sleep.
They went over and sat on his dark blue water bunk-bed. It was a really refreshing bed, but whenever Tyson (his cyclops half-brother) sat on it, it exploded. Before Percy could say anything, Jason started spewing out words, saying something about how he had gone for a fly. Before he could get any farther into whatever it was he was saying, Percy interjected. "Dude, calm down, and speak slower. I can't comprehend a thing you're saying."
"Look, I think I saw something REALLY, REALLY bad, but I want you to come to make sure that I'm not just going crazy," Jason said.
"Alright…" Percy said.
"So, c'mon, lets go."
"Now?"
"YES, now!"
"Fine, but you owe me."
"Deal," Jason said.
"SO, is it in walking distance?" Percy asked.
"Nah, climb on my back."
"I am NOT climbing on your back."
"Fine, have fun walking."
"Fine, this better not hurt."
"Alrighty!" Jason said, with a false smile on.
This was going to be great.
Percy climbed on, and off they went.
As they flew through the dark skies, Percy looked down at the lights of Manhattan below. To think that all those people had normal lives, and were ignorant of all the things he knew was just mind-blowing. Percy wondered what would happen if he was one of them. He might have had a better life. No, he told himself. He realized that he probably wouldn't have met all the people he knew today. All the demigods, all the people close to him. He would never have known people like Jason, Frank, Piper, Annabeth. Then, he remembered Leo. Whenever he thought of Leo, he wanted to cry. He always heard thoughts in his head. You should have worked harder. You could have saved him. He knew it wasn't his fault what happened. But, it felt like it was.
Before he had any more time to ponder over it, he noticed that the ground was getting closer. "Well, here we are," Jason said. As they landed, Percy noticed something strange. Instead of going about their normal business, the mortals were all staring at him and Jason. They started to point and take video. Percy eyes started to widen as he realized what was going on.
"Oh my gods.
They can see us."
