The Hunters

"We need to get to the forest in Puyallup, Washington state" Luke told Annabeth and I. She was frowning, her blond curls lay dully on her shoulders. Her face was covered in dirt and her hands and knees were scraped and burned. She didn't look much better than the rest of us. My newly cut black hair was filthy and Luke told me that my eyes didn't glow anymore. Luke had a bloody scratch on his forehead, over his right eye, his clothes were covered in yellow dust and thy were tattered. Apparently, three demigods attracts a lot of monsters.

"All the way to Washington? Were in Manhattan!" I said. He sighed.

"I know where to find a train, we can get in one of the empty cars and it'll take us the whole way there"

"Why a forest there?" Annabeth asked. Being smart, means lots of questions.

"I saw it in a dream, and it's far away from Monsters" he told her. She had her head hung low and her eyes drooped. Luke picked her up and her head rested on his shoulder. He pulled us into a group hug and we just stood there for a while. He kissed the top of my head.

"We have to leave now, if were going to make it" he set the blond down and I took her hand. Then we followed Luke to a big train with tons of freight cars. We hopped into a large one that was empty and laid down. I leaned against Luke's shoulder and Annabeth's head rested on my lap. I played with a few of her strands of hair and smiled. She was fast asleep.

"Luke?" I whispered.

"Yes?" he asked.

"Why us?" he gave me a confused look, barely noticeable in the lack of light. "I mean, w-we could be normal..instead of being in this disgusting car, we could be with the rest of the people, have a house, a dog..." I yawned. "Have my brother back..." my eyes slowly dropped, until I felt Luke tense up.

"Brother?" he asked.

"Well, I uh had this friend, he was a boy and he was like a brother" I lied. I knew he was too tired to argue against it.

"Oh.. Okay...I love you Miss. Grace"

"and I love you Mr. Castellon" then I drifted off to sleep.

Wake up! Wake up!" Annabeth called.

"Annie, it's four in the morning" I muttered against Luke's chest

"How would you know?" she asked.

"Does it look like I have a watch?" I asked, holding up my wrist. Luke started laughing.

"No it doesn't" He said. I looked up. Oh...haha wrong wrist. I showed them my other one.

"Mm. Yup a freckle past a hair" Luke said.

"What?" where is my watch! Luke ran a hand through his hair and sure enough there was my watch. "Luke! Give it back!" I said. He chuckled and held his hand higher.

"Come and get it!" I leaned over and kissed his lips, omygods, omygods! I am kissing Luke Castellon! His lips were soft and moist. Sweet tasting. My arms went around his neck and his around my back. We kept on as I lowered one hand and started unbuckling the watch from his wrist. When I had it off, I pulled away. We both were gasping for air.

"Wow" he gasped.

"Yea," we stared into each other's eyes, it was magical and all for a watch.

"EWWWW!" I heard a shrill voice shout. I laughed and pulled Annabeth in my lap and started tickling her. She giggled and told me to stop in between laughs. I let her go and she looked at me.

"Luke and Thalia, Sittin' in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G!"

"Huh! O now your going to get it little girl!" Luke said Playfully. And chasing around the car. Suddenly we lurched to a stop and they fell down. "Alright let's go" Luke said. We got off and started walking. The forest was huge and I knew were bound to find monsters despite what Luke told me. Yup I was right. I heard a growl and I instantly tapped my bracelet and got out my spear. Hellhounds...

One lunged for the unprepared Annabeth, but Luke raced to her rescue as I fought off a second. I sent a shock of electricity and it rammed into a tree, it started to get up, but Annabeth used her celestial dagger and it poofed to dust. But there were more. We were all back to back, surrounded when a long arrow shaft stuck out of a Hellhound's back. More arrows and more monsters fell.

"What's going on Luke?" Annabeth asked.

"Hunters." Luke hissed. When all were defeated, many girls walked out of the shadows.

"A daughter of Zeus, Daughter of Athena and a son of Hermes m'lady" one girl told and auburn haired girl. The girl who spoke was beautiful, her hair was blond and curly, like Annabeth's only different. Her eyes were a light blue that sparkled in the moon light. She was short, but intimidating. She had a long jagged scar across her forearm and a hunters bow and a celestial bronze sword.

"The Zeus girl could be useful." another said. She was also quite pretty. Her hair was shoulder length and snow white. Red eyes, long lashes and a scar on her cheek that didn't make her any less pretty. She had too daggers and a long imperial gold sword. Next to her stood a girl with long black hair, her eyes startlingly black, like an abyss. She stood tall and proud, just as pretty as the others, a long scar ran from her temple to her collar bone. A black spear was sticking out of a black pack she had. And next to her was a girl with long dark brown hair, braided with gold ribbon. She had a silver circlet on her head and she stared at me intently.

"Mica, Gwen, and Alexis, please escort Mr. Castellon and Ms. Chase to the tents. Zoe, miss. Grace, please accompany me in my tent. I followed reluctantly.

We sat in a triangle and I felt uncomfortable.

"Thalia, do you know who I am?" I shook my head. "I am Artemis" she said softly. Her voice was calm and welcoming.

"Why do you want to speak with me?"

"We would like you to join us, become immortal." Zoe(the dark haired girl) said.

"What about Luke and Annabeth?"

"Annabeth is young and I see a different future for her, Luke- he is male" Artemis said.

"That is so sexist" I said. "I can't leave Luke, I'm sorry" I got up to find them. I saw the glare on Mica's face as she cracked her neck, clearly telling me to stay away from her. Gwen and Alexis left us for a moment, practically dragging Mica out.

"I guess we can go now:" I told them both. They nodded and we slowly got up and out. When we started exiting I was pulled aside.

"You can't trust him!" Zoe hissed.

"Yes I can" I pulled my arm back.

"You love him?" Mica asked. I nodded. "Don't love him! He will betray you in the end!"

"No he wont!"

"You will see! Trust me girl! He will leave like the coward he is!" Zoe yelled. Then I ran back to Luke and Annabeth. They gave me confused faces, but I waved them off and we went to make a new safe house.

"Luke?" I asked, it was late and Annabeth had just fallen asleep.

"Yea?"

"You'll always be here right?" I needed to know for sure.

"Of course! I could never leave you guys!" he said with a huge smile. I hugged him...I don't need to worry for now...

Stay?

No!

I'll be right here where ever you go

Why aren't you here now?

Good no? Lol! well REVIEW!

Well bye for now Mio Amors'...
