Chapter 4-Laistrygonian attack!

Charisse's POV

I turned back and saw him again. He smiled again and said," What's wrong, demigod or should I say Egyptian magician?"

I got shocked. That was the last words I heard from my mysterious saviour. Now, I don't know if I'll still return my gratitude or not.

"Wait! H-How did you know?" I asked.

He just leaned in one of the books shelves and smiled.

"I was the one who sa-"before he could continue, a Scythian dracanae appeared. How did I know? I'm a mythologian.

"Duck!" Hermes exclaimed and I ducked. The poison didn't reach me.

Hermes brought out his golden sword and started attacking the monster. I crawled on the tiled floor and grabbed the book. I then threw it at the Duat.

Alarms flared. Mortals were shouting and running as fast as they could.

Then after I threw the book in the Duat I stood up but got tackled by a hellhound. I realized it was the bull who tackled me to the ground last January.

I guessed if it could only talk it'll say "Long time no see, we meet again, and I'll devour you now!"

Great huh? Anyways, I resisted. Water! I need water!

The hellhound bit my left arm, and scarlet blood flowed helplessly. It started bleeding profusely.

I screamed in pain. Here we go again. If only hellhounds could smirk I guess it was smirking now. It got me. Again.

Tefnut! Please I need water! I asked Tefnut for help.

I heard you, my dear. Now, imagine that you were holding the golden bracelet and chant this "I need water, follow what I utter" Tefnut

Was it just me or that spell was like the spells the TV Show Wizards of Waverly Place was using. I remembered as long as they cast a spell that rhymes it'll work.

The hellhound was at the top of me. It was ready to bit me.

I closed my eyes and imagined. That was where I was good at! Imagine.

I imagined touching the golden bracelet and warmness covered me.

"I need water, follow what I utter" I chanted. I felt like I was Alex Russo in Wizards of Waverly Place.

Then suddenly I felt really warm. I felt energy surged right through me.

I opened my eyes and bolted up. I wrestle down the hellhound. Since when did I know how to wrestle a hellhound? Anyways, it worked out. I was at the top of it but it rolled and it was now on the top of me. It leaned in to eat my face, it was slobbering and my beautiful dress was now soaked wet because of its drool. Ew!

Gosh, what now? I kicked the hellhound hard but it looked like it was no effect.

I closed my eyes imagining that someone will save me.

Then I heard a cry of agony. I opened my eyes and saw Janie holding golden with gray designs of miniature owls. Arrows were attached on her back. And a pile of monster dust on my clothes.

"Janie!" I ran up to her and gave her a hug.

"Hey Hey, Char. Chill out!" she said jokingly.

I pulled away and looked around. I was searching for someone.

"Where's Hermes?" I asked as I turned to Janie.

Janie's eyes now turned to gray. It always turns to gray if she was thinking something and reading books or anything that was related to Athena.

"Hermes? So you saw him!" She snickered.

I nodded and looked sideways.

"Yup, but where is he?" I asked.

"I don't know. I haven't run to him. Maybe it's just a decoy or your imagination" Janie explained.

"Janie! But-"I said but interrupted when Janie said," We had no more time. Let's go and find Xierra."

I just nodded and we heard a scream. That scream belonged to Xierra!

Janie and I locked eyes. Xierra was in trouble!

We ran going to her.

We saw Xierra at the magazine section throwing magazines at the Laistrygonians or Canadians.

"Get off me!" She kept screaming at them as she nonstop throwing the magazine at the 3 of them.

But the magazines were no effect to them. They kept getting nearer and nearer as Xierra kept backing. The Korean cut girl had her back now at the cold wall.

The Laistrygonians were now drooling poison. Ew!

Xierra was panicking now. She doesn't have any experience in fighting. Fighting monsters counts too.

"Listen." Janie said making a plan," You distract them while I'll kill them."

I nodded as Janie grabbed a dagger. She tossed it to me and when I caught it, it was too heavy.

Janie noticed it too and shrugged it off.

"It's your only weapon," she said like I had no choice.

I went my way towards the Laistrygonians while holding the heavy dagger on my hand.

"Hey! Get away from my best friend!" I yelled at them. One of them answered my call and went towards me.

Before it could reach me, Janie had already killed it with her bow and arrows.

"Charisse take care of Xierra. I'm going to find something." she said. I nodded. How could she leave 2 ladies who don't even know how to fight to take care of the monsters?

She left and I turned my attention back to Xierra.

I could see 2 more on Xierra. I don't know what came to me but even though I don't have any experience in fighting monsters; I rushed to her side and started swinging the dagger.

I started fighting one of the two remaining Laistrygonians.

I started to dodged and attacked like an expert until I had stabbed it in the chest and it turned to monster dust. I felt like I'm a hero in some sort of game.

Then I heard thunder and saw lightning flashed everywhere. I looked at Xierra. Her brown eyes turned to electric blue and are now in an anger mode. Uh-oh. She was angry. Very angry.

The next thing I knew she had struck a lightning on the Laistrygonian and it turned to monster dust.

I was about to congratulate Xierra when she fainted.

Janie finally came after she had looked for something and was now holding a piece of cake and ice tea. Yum!

Then I felt the pain in my left arm again. I fainted.

Before I fainted, I heard Janie mumbled something about "Geez, I had to feed 2 girls who were now unconscious. I need reinforcements"

What does she mean by that?

When I woke up, I saw myself in infirmary. How did I know? There were many beds and people healing them. I saw Xierra beside my bed.

I thought she died but then I heard her soft breathing. She was still alive. I lay on the bed again as I put my right arm on my forehead. I started thinking.

I couldn't move my left arm because it hurts.

Then I saw a boy. He was 14 too like me.

He approached me and touched my left arm.

"Ow," I complained.

"Keep still." he said as he touched the wound. I resisted the pain.

He started chanting something in Ancient Greek. How did I know it? I could understand it.

Then when he was finished the wound was gone. I sat up and looked amazed on my left arm.

"OMG! Thank you so much!" I thanked and hugged him.

"No need to thank me. It was my job as an Apollo kid," he explained. I pulled away and looked around again.

"Where am I?" I asked.

"Infirmary," he said simply.

"No," I said

"New York." He said," Welcome to Camp Half-Blood."


Ho ho~ so, Charisse and Xierra with Janie finally arrived at Camp Half-Blood. But how can that be? They're in the Philippines. You'll find out in the next chapter. R&R
