But, before we could do anything to help Rebel, she drove the knife into Mrs. Dodds chest and she exploded into that golden flourish stuff. Then Rebel grabbed onto a horizontal flag pole and flung herself back through the window and with in a flash the knife was gone and she was consumed with sorting through her drawings.
" How did you destroy Alecto so fast?" Nico asked.
" What are you talking about? I've been going through these drawings the entire time." Rebel said.
"Then explain the broken wind- how the heck?" Annabeth asked, then noticed the windows were fixed and muttered in Greek 'maybe I am going crazy'.
"OK, Rebel we know about gods, goddesses, and demigods. We know it all." Thalia got right to the punch.
Rebel looked shocked but with Thalia and Annabeth staring her down, she gave up. You could see it on her face as she plopped onto the bed, not on the pictures.
" Now one last little question, HOW IN THE WORLD DID YOU FIX THE WINDOWS SO FAST?" Nico asked, it wasn't like him to shout but it was in between shouting and talking.
" It does that by itself, I don't remember anything from an attack but grabbing a knife."
All of our faces must have shown shocked because she just covered her face with her hands.
"You think I'm crazy right?" She asked.
"No." Me, Annabeth, Thalia, Nico, and would have been Grover if he was conscious, said in unison. Rebel looked surprised.
Rebel got up and in a flash was right in front of us, I swear moving that fast is not even demigod normal, she stared us down. Apparently she has had some experience with liars. We sat there staring back, I gasped the moment her eyes changed color, they changed to more of a yellow brown, not ugly but kind of cool, hazel and greenish.
Rebel
When Percy gasped I immediately blocked my eyes from their view. I thought that because they change I might lose them as friends but Nico was brave enough to actually attempt to pull my hand from my face, of course I did feel kind of bad about my hand flying out to hit his forehead. My eyes widened at what had happened, I didn't mean to hit him!
" Sorry! Didn't mean to." I apologized quickly.
" Am I hearing this right? The Rebel apologizing to someone?" Came a snoody voice from the hallway. Dang! Kathy... I stayed silent.
"Well, my hearing has a perfect score so I must have." Then she turned to Nico, " You must be somthin' boy, she apologizes to no one, and I mean no one. But of course Rebel's been known to be desperate, that's how she got the scar down her back." She marched through the door but not before she noticed me blushing. She laughed on her way out.
And of course Thalia being Thalia had to say..."Both of your faces are really red."
Annabeth smacked Thalia, then Thalia smacked back. Looks like they both got the worst of it.
" I was just saying!" Thalia muttered.
" Awkward." I said. " I think I'll just go and eat while you guys get settled." Then I rushed through the door. Then I mutter ' I'm gunna kill Kathy.' in Greek. And rushed out before, I hope, no one saw the tears streaming down my face, that is not what caused the scar.
Nico
" What's with that chick?" I asked as I unpacked, the chick I'm was referring to was.... I think her name was Kathy. The scene replayed in my head every ten seconds then for the seconds in between it was stuck on Rebels face as she ran through the door.
" Don't know, all I could figure out is that who ever could make Rebel cry is one demented person." Annabeth stated.
She had a jumbo point, even though we had only known her for a half hour, Rebel didn't seem to be a girl who cry's a lot. I went over to her bed where she had left her drawings, they were awesome! Too bad I didn't notice the others leave and Rebel enter.
" What are you doing?" She asked from the doorway...Crap.
