Chapter 4: Torch and Moonlight
Percy's POV
I woke up all in a daze. When I opened my eyes I saw two Annabeth's staring back at me saying " Percy...Percy...are you awake? " I tried to sit up but my back felt sliced in two.
Annabeth gave me some nectar and ambrosia and soon I could sit up and talk. I looked around first. I was in another one of those waterfall caves.
Suddenly back in my daze I said " Annabeth wait the wolfes " cofused, She said " What wolfes? " I reached into my pocket and for some reson I found two baby wolfes clawing and growling happily.
" Where did you get those? " " And how did they survive all that back there if they were in your pocket." Annabeth demanded.
" Woah woah woah " I said. " One question at a time. " " Ok but first tell me were you got them. " Annabeth responded. So I told her the story of the two guards.
At first Annabeth was shocked but then her face clouded with worry and exitement. " What? " I said. " It all makes sense now " She said exitedly. " WHAT? " I said still not understanding.
" These are Artemis's wolfes " She said quietly. " So um what are we going to do with them " I said. " Well we can't do much now but keep them safe until Artemis collects them. "
" But what if theres hundreds of them in the world " I said letting my wolf roam around the cave. ' That could be true but, what I said is the best thing we can do right now. " She said stubbornly.
" Fine. " I said. " OK how about I make us some dinner " I said wanting to change the subject. " You have food? " Annabeth said surprised.
" Yea I do." " What do you want to eat: We've got meat, apples, Bread, and muffins " I said happy because we had lots of food left.
" Mmmm how about some meat and bread tonight " " As you wish Madame " I said putting on a fake french accent. She giggled. I started a fire and I tossed a slab of meat on top of it when the fire was good and ready.
I handed Annabeth one of the two wolfes. " Here you take care of one and i'll take care of one. " I said. " Sure. " Annabeth agreed.
Suddenly my wolf hopped out of my lap and pawed at the fire. It then did something amazing. Small bits of flame came out from the fire and landed harmlessly on each of my wolfes four paws.
Annabeth's wolf stared intently at the moon. Then it glowed bright silver. As me and Annabeth stared amazed at them I thought of a good idea.
" Hey Annabeth do you want to name the wolfes " " Great idea Seaweedbrain! " She said. " I want to name mine Torch for its love of fire " I proudly.
" Well I think Moonlight would be the only apropriate name for mine because of its obvious love for the moon " Annabeth said firmly.
We made a small area for them to sleep and by then the food was ready. I served everone ( including the wolfes ) a big peice of meat with buttered toast. I scarfed it down. I was starved.
After dinner ( which was very good by the way ) We made plans to slowly get back to camp half-blood. We discovered we were very far away from camp half-blood.
We had to take two nights in a hotel to get back. We decided that as a treat the two days at the fanciest and funniest hotel in New York. It had a water park, theme park, arcade, and all the rooms there were suites.
As we all got into are sleeping bags I just knew that the next two days would be just what we needed.
OK I know that was short but it was meant to be that way. The next chapter is going to be AWESOME!
