A/N : Hola! Sorry for the cliffy but I thought it was necessary. I'm evil aren't I, if you wanna blame somebody for my cliffy blame my cousin she told me that if I didn't publish it there she'd ban my use if her computer, so there that's why there was a cliffy. ( if your confused, im currently living with my cousin and her mum.) Here's chapter 3.
Chapter 3 : Escape
Annabeth's pov
My eyes fluttered open, my head felt like someone was hammering my skull on the inside. I tried to sit up but fell back down again, suddenly I remembered why I was here.
" Percy ? " I whispered, I got no reply
" percy ? " I said a little louder.
"Annabeth, I'm here follow my voice "
I almost exploded with joy he was alive.
Slowly I crawled on my hands and knees until I felt someone pull me in to an embrace, I knew it was Percy. I allowed myself a couple minutes to cry into his shoulder before I pulled away and cleared my throat.
" Where are we ? " I asked scared
" no idea " Percy replied " it's pitch black "
" how the hell are we - Wait remember when we found the labyrinth at camp. " I said
" yeah but what does that have to do with this ? " he questioned
" well we held hands, you illuminated the tunnel with your sword and we found a way out " I replied slipping my hand into his.
" see this is just one example of why I love you, wise girl " percy said pulling out Riptide .
The swords light didn't make a ginormaus difference, but I could make out my surroundings.
We seemed to be in some sort of cave, instantly my throat tightened, the cave brought back memories of when I was battling a cyclops in the Bermuda triangle. ( or the sea of monsters take your pick ) Percy must have been reminded because his hand got tighter round mine.
" I'm here " I whispered
My head whipped round to the right where I heard growling.
" I'm here too " the voice sounded like a whispering wind.
I yelped and started dragging Percy down the tunnel, soon enough we were running for our lives, just in the average day for a half - blood. After what felt like ages of running light appeared in the distance, we sprinted faster and made it out into the street panting, we didn't stop there we kept running until we reached a very busy road, Percy did his best taxi whistle and told the driver to take us to the location of camp - half blood. When we got there the driver gave us a funny look and Percy gave him a wad of cash. Only now did I realise that I'd sprained my ankle and that I had a huge gash on my arm aswell as a terrible headache. Percy and I half stumbled half walked to the big house.
We found Chiron play cards with Mr.D. When Chiron noticed us he blinked a couple times, truth be told we weren't expected till next week. Suddenly my legs gave out and if Percy wouldn't have been there to catch me I would've fallen face - first into the porch steps.
The last thing I saw was the infirmary.
My eyes slowly opened, when I could see properly, I saw percy smiling at me rubbing circles in my palms and Chiron having a discussion with Argus.
" How you feeling wise girl ? " Percy asked concerened
" better " I replied
Chiron came over with a look that was a mix of joy and worry.
" Annabeth, my dear, I have some news. " he said rubbing his chin.
" what is it ? " I asked interested.
" well when we were taking care of you, we found out something very interesting " he said
" What's so damn interesting " I yelled
" Annabeth your pregnant " .
I'll leave it there I'm just too tired, maybe I should carry on the chapter... Nope! I won't. Ha ha.
