When Percy woke up the next morning, he was not happy. He must have woken up 10 times that night. He got out of his bed and found some clothes to put on. When he was done, he walked out of the door and right into Annabeth. She looked at him with such anger that Percy nearly wet his pants. He backed up slowly like a trapped animal. Then he saw that she was holding a sword over her head.

Then he really did wet his pants. "WHY THE HELL DID YOU SPLASH MR.D!" Percy just sat there with his mouth wide open like a goldfish.

This, apparently, was not the right answer. She started to bring the sword down. "BLOODY MURDER! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!" Percy ran so fast that he could give the road runner a run for his money. He even left the trail of dust. The only place Percy could think of to go was to the beach.

He changed direction, all the while yelling "BLOODY MURDER!" People came out of there cabins and watched the two of them like this was a normal thing. He reached the water and dived in. He swam as deep as he could. He swam until he reached the bottom of the lake. There, he saw a deep chasm. Then, being the idiot that he was, he swam into it.

It must have been 50 feet deep. He reached the bottom and saw hundreds of pearls. He picked one up to look at it. He had forgotten all about Annabeth and started to swim back to the surface of the water. He reached the top of the chasm and swam towards the shore. When he got there, he started to walk back towards his cabin to put the pearl somewhere. Then he remembered Annabeth and dropped the pearl in fear. It landed by his feet. Then, the coolest thing Percy had ever seen happened. He got stuck in a giant bubble. The bubble started to float back towards the shore, right where Annabeth was.

Then Percy had the smartest idea he had ever had; he used the bubble as a hamster ball and started walk away from the beach. It actually worked! The bubble slowly started to go the other way. It was getting faster every second. Now, Percy sort of looked like he was in the circus. He was sprinting inside a big bubble and was going as fast as a car.

Percy was having so much fun that he forgot to look where he was going. By that time, Chiron had come outside to stare at Percy. "Percy, Percy, watch out for that tree!" BAM! The bubble popped and Percy dropped about ten feet like a bug.

The last thing he saw before he passed out was stars spinning around his head. At first Annabeth felt like retribution was at hand, but after he didn't wake up for a few hours, she started to get worried. Little did she know that Percy was well awake and was faking it. He was actually snickering under his breath so that no one could hear. That was of course before he heard Chiron tell Annabeth had to go on a quest without Percy. He sat bolt upright in his be. "Annabeth isn't going to go on any quest without me." he actually said this in a serious voice.

People might not think so, but Percy took quests seriously. Both Chiron and Annabeth looked up surprised. They would have been angry at him if they hadn't been talking about quests. "Annabeth, you're going to have to go up to get your prophecy." She nodded slowly and started walking towards the stairs leading to the attic.

About an hour later, Annabeth came back down. Percy mentally winced. She didn't look too good. "What did the oracle say?" Percy asked. She just shook her head and kept going, mumbling things like "Why me?" or "Help me." under her breath.

Just then Thalia burst in, "If you're going on a quest, I'm coming, if not, then what did I miss."
