Chapter 2
"Uh... Sadie... It's twenty first..." that boy, Carter, said to the girl.
"That's what I said, twenty first nome." The girl replied evenly, turning away from me to look at him head on.
"No Sadie, you said thirty first."
"Uh, no I didn't Carter, I said twenty first."
"You said thirty first"
"Twenty first"
"Thirty first"
"Twenty"
"Thirty"
"Twenty"
"Thirty"
"Twen- HEY SHE'S GETTING AWAY" Sadie yelled, finally glancing at me.
And indeed I was. While they had been arguing, I took it as a chance to see if I could escape and somehow get back to Camp. I'd seen a ladder and started climbing down when that girl, Sadie, spotted me.
"Di Immortales." I cursed, climbing down faster, but I was still dizzy from bumping my head with Ironhead over there, so my reflexes were slower than usual.
Sadie put her hand out in front of her, as did Carter, and I gasped when I saw their hands disappear. A few seconds later they were whole again, and each had a boomerang in their hands, and Carter also had a sword that looked like a hook.
'Oh my gods. That's an Egyptian sword. What was it called…?'
"A khopesh." I breathed, shocked for a moment, before I pushed off the ladder and jumped the last few feet to the bottom. I tucked in my feet at the last moment and rolled safely onto the pavement, standing up unscathed.
Sadie yelled something in a language I didn't know, pointing at me with her boomerang. I felt a spark of amusement before the pavement in front of me exploded into a million pieces and I was thrown twenty feet to the right.
I got up and rubbed my neck. Was there some kind of underground landmine system? Or maybe she threw a small bomb that I didn't see? There was something weird going on here and I was going to get to the bottom of it.
I looked around for a way to escape; there was a river on one side of me, and an old warehouse on the other. Everywhere I looked, there was something blocking me from escaping.
I saw Sadie jump off the ladder as I had and run towards me, followed by her brother.
'Guess I have to fight then. Great.'
I pulled out the dagger Percy had given me on my birthday, a few days before he… I pressed my lips together.
'No. don't think about that right now. Concentrate on fighting.'
I saw Carter stop and stare when he saw my dagger. He leaned over to his sister and whispered something to her that made her eyes widen and glance at me apprehensively. All of a sudden Sadie yelled something else and everything went black.
R&R please! :)
