Hey, guys! Chapter two is now UP! Please enjoy!
Disclaimer: I do not own Percy Jackson. Thanks.
Also, in case you were wondering, I rated it T because of some language, violence and slight suggestiveness(is that even a word? x3 lol, whatever) in upcoming chapters. Again, thanks, and please enjoy!
I gazed at my beloved camp in horror. What happened? I thought.
"What happened?" Mom wondered, mimicking my thoughts.
"I don't know, but I'm going to find out. Bye, Mom," I said, giving her a final hug before I was off to camp for the summer.
"Bye, Percy! Be careful!" she said, a concerned look on her face.
The first thing I did when I entered camp was run up to Chiron, who was limping. One of his legs were badly injured, though it has been treated and bandaged up.
"Chiron, what happened?" I asked, frantically.
"Monster attack," he replied, "Multiple hellhounds much, much bigger than Mrs. O'Leary…"
I suddenly remembered my hellhound, Mrs. O'Leary, who was about the size of a tank. If they were bigger than her, then they were huge.
"But… how did they get past Peleus? And how is Mrs. O'Leary?" I asked, praying to the gods that my pet made it through the battle.
"The hellhound is fine," Then Chiron shook his head. "We don't know… It has been happening for almost a week now, and we have many, many injured campers…And, unfortunately, lost some as well." He sighed, a solemn look on his face.
I glared at the ground in dismay.
I suddenly remembered something. "Where's Annabeth, Grover, and, Nico?" I looked up at him, hopefully.
"Nico is quite exhausted from summoning such a large amount of undead. Grover is with Juniper, I believe... Though I am not sure of Annabeth… I am sorry, Percy." My eyes widened. I had to find Annabeth and make sure she's OK.
As I headed to the Athena cabin, I looked around. Horror swept over me. Familiar faces lay on the ground, either very injured or not moving at all. Looking horror-filled at the ground, I bumped into someone, and fell back. I looked up. Clarisse.
"Hey! Watch it, punk!"
"I don't have time for you right now! I gotta find Annabeth and Grover," I said, standing up.
"Neither do I! Get outta my way, and consider yourself lucky. I'll get you the next time I see you, Jackson." She said, and stormed away. I huffed, and spotted Grover and Juniper trying to fan off Juniper's tree. She was crying. I ran over to them.
"What happened?" I asked, throwing dirt on the flames.
"Hellhounds… fight… fire… tree…dead tree nymphs…" Juniper managed to say between sobs.
Finally, we were able to put out the fire. I looked up at Juniper's badly charred tree.
"Thanks, Perce. It's good to see you again. I just wish it wasn't under these circumstances…" said Grover, holding Juniper in his arms while looking at her tree.
"It's good to see you, too, Grover. And Juniper, I'm very sorry about your tree. But I'm sure all the campers will try very hard to restore it." I assured her.
"B..but all.. the other… d..d..dead t-tree nymphs…" she sobbed. I didn't know what to say about that. We couldn't bring them back to life… And judging by the amount of burned down trees, I'd say she lost quite a bit of friends.
"I'm going to see Annabeth. See you later, man."
"Alright, see you later, Percy."
My heart raced as I approached the Athena cabin.
Please let Annabeth be alright…I prayed to the gods.
I knocked. Malcolm, Annabeth's brother, answered.
"Where's Annabeth?" I asked.
I really hope you guys are enjoying this so far! Thank you so much for reading this! Please review, and let me know what you think! ;)
