Thanks for the reviews, I'm going to try to use that advice now. Once again I do not own PJO.
Chapter 2
Friendly Encounters
Percy POV
Looks like I didn't have to look for Thalia at all, as soon as I ran out the door I was swept up by a swiriling black vortex. It was dark enough I couldn't tell up from down, I just knew that I didn't know where I was going. I started to see a small window of light coming ahead, It blinded me for a moment before I was thrown out on the ground. I think I was unconscious for a moment because when I opened my eyes I saw a very dazed Thalia looking down at me. I quickly jumped up and yelled "What the hell just happened!" I started looking around.
"Well good morning to you too" She said in a sarcastic voice. Morning? "What time is it?" I asked. "I'd say about, mmmm, 7 am". "Do you know why we're here?" She asked. I racked my brain for a moment"Aphrodite" I said in a sour tone. "That wich?" " Grrrr, Curse you aphrodite!" At the moment she yelled it her punk rock clothes were traded fo a long red silk dress, her spikey black hair grew out into long, combed, brunette model hair. "Nice" I said in a picky voice. She gave me that I'll-get-you-later glare.
Thalia POV
When I looked at the dress I couldn't think between getting back at Aphrodite or hiding from Percy. Man, percy had changed since our battle with kronos. He'd grown his hair out and his eyes had gotten a deeper green. At the same time of being imberassed infront of percy, I wanted to stab him in the neck
"So why did aphrodite bring us together?" I regretted asking "I had a dream, she was locked in tartarus, and she said that me and the one... that would protect me would rescue her." He said. I was curious about that sentence so I stored it away in my mind for another time.
"Where do we start?" I asked intently
"I say we get started by catching up over breakfast, looks like we're near Sanfrancisco, let's eat somewhere in town.
30 minutes later
Percy POV
We sat down at a burger king near the golden gate bridge, funny how we both ordered a whopper without a second thought. "So how's the hunt been going?" I said with a fry hanging out my mouth. "Oh, pretty good, I almost had a giant boar just as that black whole sucked me up." she said. "I know, don't those things suck?" We laughed at that "Isn't it funny that we havn't been attacked by any monsters?" At that moment a baby hippo sized hydra bust through the window and onto our table. "Darn you percy! You jinxed us!" The hydra jumped out at me. I quickly pulled out riptide and slashed. Of course I missed the body and hit the middle head. "Why do I always have to hit the middle one?" two fire breathing heads grew back and combined flames for one big burst of fire. To describe it , it kind of felt like a giant frying pan hitting me in the chest and sending me through the window behind me and 20 feet onto the bridge. As I started to slip off the bridge, I heard my name being called right before I fell into the bay 300 feet below.
OOOH, Cliffy, litterally. So as always read and review, oh and constructive critisism is always welcome. And I will update, like always, depending on reviews. So I hope to update soon!
