Sorry if the 48 hour chapter didn't go as planned. We had a power outage on Thursday and I watched The Hunger Games on Friday, since I read the book I was like "I volunteer! I volunteer as tribute." And like "Tracker Jackers, genetically enhanced wasps created by the Capitol." And I even whistled Rue's four note song while Katniss was whistling it. I was lucky they didn't kick me out. Thanks to all who reviewed and sorry if I kept switching from past to present in chappie dos you see I typed it up in two different days and also I was confused. Evander asks; what is BTW it's by the way, by the way. Hehe so I promised you guys some virtual cookies it's at the bottom of the page along with the smileys.
Disclaimer: I don't think I need one cause I OWN the PJO and HOO series. MUWAHAHAHAHAHA ha ha ha hey wait where are you guys taking me oh no no not that NOOOOO! *BEEEEEEEEEEEEEP*
Third person POV
Annabeth stares in shock as the son of Hermes made his way to her. Percy on the other hand had a flame boiling his sanity and influence among himself. As Luke was approaching, Annabeth takes a few steps backward causing herself to bump into Percy. She blushes as her hand accidentally grazes his abdomen. Annabeth was too embarrassed to even look at the son of Poseidon who was to engulfed by rage to care.
"Luke, hi. Um, this is your cabin?" Annabeth hates the feeling Luke gives her when she was near him, but she still tried to hide it making it seem impossible.
"Yeah, don't you know I'm a son of Hermes?" Annabeth shook her head. "Well your tour guide here doesn't do a good job eh, how about I take you on a tour of my own since it's much better than his pathetic rambles about himself and his little cabin." He gives me a blinding smile that clearly radiates self-confidence.
"Actually I haven't told her about that yet Luke." Percy tries to make his words sound normal but Annabeth could feel it was forced. She can feel vibrations on the ground which seemed to grow stronger as He moves step by step to Luke. "And you know what Castellan," Percy changes his language into something Annabeth thinks is Ancient Greek. Everyone in the cabin turn their heads to the racket Percy is making and by the looks on their faces, she could also tell it was pretty offensive. "Errek es korrakas, Luke you know you don't want to mess with me." Percy's eyes were darker and those little vibrations that Annabeth felt earlier had grown into a small earthquake that shook the cabin.
"Okay I think we better get going." Annabeth says, moving Percy away from Luke. She was smart enough to know what happens when two boys fight, and to make matters worst they were demigods. "C'mon Perce," Annabeth says with fake enthusiasm, "we have to go back to Chiron remember."
As soon as they leave the cabin, Percy finds himself making his way to his cabin.
"Hey, hey, wait up where are you going?" Annabeth asks.
"Cabin three, Poseidon." Percy replies quickly. He is a fast walker so they quickly made their way to the front porch of "cabin three". "Now if you excuse me I have to feed the fishes." As Percy slams the door, Annabeth knows he was being sarcastic.
Annabeth
Percy was a son of Poseidon! Well that explains the vibrations, but it's still unbelievable! If I recall properly, he told me a while ago, "Some demigods abuse their power and choose arrogance over fidelity. Most likely the children of he big three." I knew the big three were Zeus, Poseidon and Hades and I think I know how most of them end up dead in their young ages; Was it possible he was talking about himself? It is possible; I mean he was speaking in some kind of monotone, depressed voice while talking about the subject.
The conch horn goes off in the distance, signaling dinner time. I take another glance at the Poseidon cabin wanting Percy to come out, but I don't think he will, so I decided to wait for him in the dining pavilion.
I grabbed a plate then put some fruits, pizza and salad on it. I remember Percy saying something about giving an offering to the gods, so I made my way to the bronze brazier. Then I sit down on the Hermes table. As soon as Luke came by I know I was doomed, He starts talking about himself and I tried to listen but unfortunately, my eyes make their way to the Poseidon table. I watch Percy eat there alone. I suddenly have the urge to go there, and soon enough I leave Luke and his blabbering.
He looks up from his food and says, "What are you doing here? Don't you remember I told about going to other tables other than the Hermes table?" I answer with a nod. "Chiron will get mad at you!" He exclaims.
"Well…he seems to be fine with it." He turns to the main table where Chiron's seated, and as I said he was smirking looking directly at us.
"Why do you want to be here anyway?" He asks.
"You seemed lonely so I decided to stop by." He agrees with a nod and I take the seat beside him. Percy frequently tells jokes and tells me about the demigods in camp.
"See those two guys at the Hermes table." I look in the direction in which he's pointing at and see two guys who look exactly like each other. "That's Travis and Connor Stoll. Just a tip keep your valuables close to you at all times, they're not called Stoll just for the sake of being Stolls."
"They're twins?" I ask and he simply replies with a no. People start looking at us also and mumbling some, what I guess are, rumors.
"They're actually brothers of different age but yeah most people mistake them as twins."
"How do you tell them apart? I really don't want to call Travis, Connor and vice versa."
"I'm not telling you. That's actually the fun part and it's for you to find out. C'mon I'll show you something." He carries both our plates while I take our goblets. We drop them off at the designated area for used plates and goblets then head off to where Percy was taking me.
Turns out it was the beach, and he has all the reason to take me there since he's the son of the mighty Poseidon. The cool breeze was blowing the stray strands of hair on my face to where they belong. Percy invited me to sit with him on the sand, and I gladly agreed. I take off my shoes knowing I didn't need them anymore.
"You know I love bringing people here especially girls. You wanna know why?"
I was shocked hearing this from him. Was he really as much of a flirt like Luke? I couldn't think properly since I'm too nervous. Can't he see it? I just met you! I said none of the words I stated a while ago, instead I say, "Why?" A blush is creeping on my face. Percy is just looking at me with his sea-green eyes absolutely ready to make his move.
" It's because, I can do…." Do what? Do what! I'm nervous and frantic at the same time just wanting it to finish. "This!" He says, and suddenly a wave crash on us. I let out a scream and I was furious.
"PERCY!" He's laughing at the same time running away from me as I chase him on the shore. "I'M GONNA KILL YOU!"
"Kill me? With what you don't even have a weapon yet." I smile at this and grab a handful of sand. "Uh-oh, I'll get going now bye." He dashes of to the water and I follow him. Soon enough the water is knee-deep and the sand under my feet was turning soft, a clear sign that it's going to get deeper. He chuckled nervously and I threw the sand and to my dismay, he disappears into the water. I turn a good 360 degree turn and just wondered where can he be?
Suddenly, I felt arms wrap around my waist and drag me to shore. I was puzzled on how he was completely dry even though he had a little swim on the beach but I remember the fact that he was a child of Poseidon.
He set me down on the beach and with a touch on my arm I'm as dry as a bone.
"We should better get back they may be looking for us." We start the long walk back to the cabins. When we arrived at the Hermes cabin, I turn to face him.
"Thanks for everything." I say.
"No prob." I open the door and got inside. Hoping that I could go back and at least give him a kiss on a cheek.
