Here's the second chapter. Thanks for the reviews! It means a lot to me. This chapter is shorter than the last, mainly because if I continued it, you all would get bored of how long the chapter would be. I tend to do that with my stories. ;P
Disclaimer: I do NOT own any characters from the Percy Jackson series. They are owned by Rick Riordan. Sadly, all I own is Corra, the dragon girl.
My eyes widened as a loud crash came from inside the cabin moments later. I rushed in; worried Corra had gotten herself hurt.
Inside, I found Corra sitting on the top of a bunk bed. She was looking over the edge at her bow. It was on the ground, suggesting she had tossed it over. Maybe on purpose; maybe by accident.
"Corra? Che cosa e successo? (Corra? What happened?)" I asked worried. Corra smiled at me.
"Ho lasciato il mio arco per la mia strada qui, (I dropped my bow on my way up here,)" Corra explained. She cursed herself for being such an idiot. I cracked a smile.
"Perche hai salire la in primo luogo? (Why did you climb up there in the first place?)" I asked.
"Volevo vedere se mi volete seguire. E volevo vedere meglio al posto, (I wanted to see if you would follow me. And I wanted to get a better look at the place,)" Corra admitted, blushing. I smiled.
"Posso unirmi a voi lassu? Mi piacerebbe vedere quello che vuoi dire, (Can I join you up there? I'd like to see what you mean,)" I asked. Corra nodded, and moved over on the bed. I climbed up, careful not to hit Corra as I got comfortable. I was surprised at how endless the cabin seemed. There seemed to be torches lit with green flames going on for miles.
"Mi ricorda degli Inferi, (It reminds me of the Underworld,)" I muttered. Corra glanced at me.
"E il Underworld davvero questo grande e oscuro? (Is the Underworld really this big and dark?)" Corra asked, looking back at the vast emptiness around us.
"Gia. Tranne, I'Underworld e pieno di fantasmi, e questa cabina e solo vuota, (Yeah. Except, the Underworld is filled with ghosts, and this cabin is just empty,)" I pointed out.
"Ma siamo in esso. Inoltre, mi piace il buio, (But we are in it. Besides, I like the dark,)" Corra protested. I smiled at her, and somehow, she managed to see it. She smiled back. Right then, a couch shell sounded. I started climbing back down.
"Andiamo. Questa e la campana della cena, (Come on. That's the dinner bell,)" I said, helping Corra down. She picked up her bow, and slung it over her shoulder.
"Campana strano, (Strange bell,)" Corra remarked. I laughed. Corra looked at me strangely, not understanding why I was laughing. "Era qualcosa che ho detto? (Was it something I said?)" Corra asked as we walked up to the dining pavilion. As soon as we entered, the entire camp went quiet. Chiron led Corra over to the table he sat at.
Everyone was watching Corra in silence. So, naturally, they all heard Chiron tell me to ask Corra what she wanted to eat. Corra thought for a minute or two.
"Posso avere quel cibo Peleo stave avendo in precedenza? (Can I have that food Peleus was having earlier?)" Corra finally asked. Shocked, I whispered what Corra wanted into Chiron's ear. He just nodded and sent one of the satyrs to get the food from the Big House. I walked over to the Hades table just as dinner resumed. Everyone started talking again; some casting looks at me or Corra.
When the satyr came back with a platter of dragon food, the whispering got even louder. I glanced at Percy, who was staring at Corra's food, and looked like he was about to throw up. I chuckled to myself and gazed back to Corra. She seemed to be enjoying herself, eating the dragon food at a fast rate. Corra must have been starving, because she finished the whole platter in a matter of minutes.
Just as I was about to turn back to my own plate, there came a mighty roar. Everyone froze, and looked toward the beach. Something had decided to take a nose dive on to the beach. It had gigantic wings, shimmering green scales, and a great, drooping head. It let out another roar, this one weaker than the first, then fell silent. Corra stood up in a flash, and raced toward the dragon.
"Corra! Don't!" I screamed, forgetting which language I was using.
That was nice. Anyways, I have a serious question for all those reading this: Should I make Nico and Corra a couple in the future? Remember, this question is VERY important. I'm asking you all this question because it will be important for future chapters. R&R, and let me know your answer in your review. Thx!
