I STEAL A MOTORBIKE FROM A SHOP
I was trying to break the door when Percy screamed at us.
"Move!" he shouted. "Away from the door." We did what we were told. Then there were explosions everywhere like at the boys locker room and the equipments in the gym were all blown apart. I screamed because... well I felt like I had to scream. I stopped screaming and grabbed a long stick that was near me on the ground. Well, if I die here, I not going down without fighting, I thought yelling and charging at the monsters. Before I could hit the monsters, something pushed me from behind. I turned around stunned.
"What are you?" I yelled at the air. There was no one, but then a knife flying through the air from nowhere and hitting Joe from the back. Joe just stared at the knife.
"OW," he muttered then busted into a cloud of green flame. I just blinked and my knee just suddenly gave out. I hit my hip on the ground hard, trying to figure out what had just happened. Then a girl that I saw from Percy's photo appeared in front of me, not noticing me and began to walk towards Sloan. Sloan just blinked.
"That's the girl... That's the girl-"he began but was stopped by Annabeth, who punched him in the face. He was knocked flat. I laughed.
"And you," she told him. "Lay off my friend." Then she began walking towards Percy and talked to him. I looked around. The gym was in flames and Coach Nunley didn't seem to notice anything except in his magazine. I quickly got and brushed my shorts. Then I saw that the girl was gone and Tyson was sitting dazed against the wall. Mr Bonsai, the principle and a couple of police officers came into the gym. I gulped and ran out of the building, through the hole that was smoking. I was shocked and my gym clothes were burnt. I quickly went into a clothes shop and took some clothes and went into the change room. I quickly wore the clothes that I had picked. It was a red tie front chambray top with a dark green short. I shrugged and put them on. When I went outside towards the counter, there was no-one so I also took a jacket. Without paying, I went out of the shop looking casual. The people on the street were looking at the Meriwether College Prep and when I scanned the crowed, I saw Percy and Tyson running down the alley of Church Street. I decided to follow them since I had nowhere to go. I called my grandmother and told that the school was on fire and my grandmother was screaming.
"Fire?!" she screeched into the phone, which I had to pull the phone away until she had finished screaming. "Oh, no. What else was there, Erin?" I quickly told her what had happened and she didn't talk for a few seconds. I ran in a distance so Percy and Tyson could not see me. I told my grandmother that I would talk to her later and hung up. I put my hair up into a ponytail, because it was annoying me by covering my face. I grabbed a toyo hat from a hat store while I was running down the alley and I put it on my head. I came to a stop when I heard them talking. They were talking about Tyson and a person called Grover, Camp Half-Blood (?), some monster called Laistryboniens, I think it was. Annabeth was the girl's name and I realised that she was Annabeth Chase, the smart girl who went to the same school as me last year before I got expelled! Oh that school was boring. I was glad that I got expelled. Jokes.
I was too busy thinking about her that I didn't hear what Annabeth shouted. She said something like harma epitribeios or something. Then a taxi-like car came out of the ground bubbling. I yelped and took a step back. I was shocked. Then Annabeth, Percy and Tyson jumped into the taxi and the taxi drove away. I gritted me teeth and ran up to catch up with the taxi. For some reason, nobody seemed to notice it. When I had arrived back at the street, smokes where coming out of the school and the crowd were trying to put out the fire. I ran into a motorbike shop and looked for one. I saw a motorbike that was looked like it was just for me. It had the key in place, fuel already full and wasn't chained like the others. Also it was my favourite colour, green. I sat on it and turned on the engine. The man who had been sitting at the counter was looking at me now. I just took a deep breath in and smiled at the man.
"I hope you don't mind me taking this, mister" I said "Thank you!" and I drove past the door. The man was shocked. He got up and ran towards me.
"No! You can take that! You have to pay!" he shouted. But I was already gone.
It felt great riding a motorbike when you didn't even know how to ride it! I was nervous but I felt fine. I got on to the road and looked around. Then I saw the grey taxi driving on the Williamsburg Bridge. I grinned and followed them on my brand new motorbike. I was following the taxi when I saw that the taxi was skimming along the edge of the bridge. I was thinking, what were they doing inside there? Was the driver nuts? Then the taxi slammed into the guardrail and made a grinding noise. I winced. There were smoke coming out of the car. The taxi hurled down the bridge towards Brooklyn which I followed, which was extraordinary hard since the taxi was so fast. Then they were passing through Brooklyn heading towards the Long Island. I could smell the strawberries on the field and the trees everywhere. I was slowing down a little bit but the taxi wasn't. It was about to crash when the taxi suddenly braked hard. The taxi turned a few times them stopped. I drove the bike towards a tree and hid. I looked at the three people coming out of the taxi, tumbling. Then they began to run towards the hill. I looked and yelped. There were monsters and people in armours fighting.
