Annabeth's POV
We haven't reached South Carolina, and the sun was beginning to set. I knew Percy's leg was hurting very much, and if I didn't get that out of there it would get infected…if it wasn't already. He was driving with his good leg, as he was before, but every time we had to stop really fast, he would groan and hold his leg. I would want to help him, telling him to stop down the road so I could find something to take that bullet out of his leg but he was being stubborn and didn't listen to me. After hours of trying I gave up, and looked out the window. I stared at the trees passing by rapidly, and I saw a few houses here and there.
After I got bored, I sighed and looked over at Percy. His unevenly cut, raven black hair was slightly over his eyes. Covering a bit of his sea green eyes, but you could still see them. They were focused on the road, they looked tired and pained. Percy's jaw was set in place, as if he was angry. His kind of dark pink lips, formed a bit of a smile. I wonder why?
"Like what you see?" he asked.
I rolled my eyes and looked away. I know why, now. But as I was looking at him, I did notice he was still wearing his prison clothes. I had to buy new clothes, now. If anyone say Percy like that, we would get caught more easily. We passed by a Wal-Mart and I made Percy stop. He stopped a few meters away from Wal-Mart and parked in an Empty Denny's restaurant.
"Just wait here a minute," I told Percy as I got my purse from the back. "I'll be back really soon." I assured.
"Just hurry, I hope there are no cops around."
"Don't worry." I said as I closed the door.
"I'll be back." I finished as I left.
*Time Lapse*
I came back twenty minutes later. I had bought food, clothes, shoes, and other things. Among those other things are hair dye, and colored contacts. No, I didn't buy the colored contacts from Wal-Mart, I got them from a nearby store. Wal-Mart doesn't sell everything; I don't care what the commercials say! I walked over to the car, and threw everything in the trunk. I went back to the passenger seat and sat down. As I was clicking in my seat belt, I heard Percy start the engine. He winced as his bad leg moved, and he tried not to cry out, so I wouldn't notice. But I did notice.
"Percy, are you alright?" I asked.
He took a deep breath, and nodded.
"Don't lie." I said.
"I'm not lying, Annabeth." He said.
I knew he was like that. Never admitting he was hurt or that something hurt him. So i knew it would be stupid to try to get him to say yes.
"Fine, whatever you say."
After a few more minutes of driving, I realized, the sun was setting. There was no way we would make in to South Carolina today. I looked over at Percy, I had to stop this. That leg of his would probably get infected, if it isn't already.
"Hey, Annabeth. Can we stay somewhere, I don't think we can get there by tonight." Percy said.
Huh, it was easier than what I thought.
"Sure, you know a place?" I asked.
He smiled.
"I know a place."
(A.N./ The place I am going to write about is FAKE! It is not a real place in North Carolina, it is just a figment of my imagination.)
I looked out the window, the night was cold and windy. Perfect place for a horror movie. We were driving down a dark road, and my thoughts were flying around everywhere. I even began to think that Percy was trying to get rid of me by killing me in these woods. But then everything changed when I saw a small city in the woods, lit up with light. It was so bright, but New York beat it by a 1000.
There were people everywhere, but the crazy thing was…they were all in costume. Zombies, Aliens, Angels, Ghost, Vampires etc. They were everywhere, this was my version on Halloween Town. I was amazed, Percy was a genius! We would fit in here perfectly, a prison and a prison guard. If anyone asked, we were just in costume.
"Percy, you are a genius! Has anyone ever told you that?" I said.
"No. But it feels good." He smiled.
I shook my head, and waited for Percy to park. When he parked I helped him get out, and I went to the back to get the things I got from Wal-Mart and the stores around. When I was talking things out I felt two people standing behind me. I turned around to find, a Pirate and a Vampire. They looked really fake, I mean, green fangs? White make-up? Sad.
"Aye, aye." The pirate said.
"Umm…" I said not really knowing what to say.
"Good Evening." The Vampire said.
"It's night, not evening." I said.
"Blah! I'm going to bite your neck!" The Vampire yelled as he almost jumped on me.
This is such a weird place,I thought.
I kicked him in his stomach, and he fell back. He hit the ground with a loud THUMP, and then I turned to the Pirate. He got scared, but when he was about to run he bumped into a brick wall. A.K.A Percy.
"Going somewhere?" Percy asked.
The pirate shook his head so fast I thought it was going to fall off. Percy was glaring at them with so much intensity; I was even a bit frightened. The Vampire got up and went up to Percy.
"Hey, man. Calm down, we are just kidding." He said.
Percy grabbed them both by the collar, and growled.
"Yeah? Well, I'm not kidding."
The guys pushed Percy away, and then ran away. Percy limped over to me, and almost fell. But I got him, and gave him support.
"I could have taken care of myself, Percy." I said, as we slowly walked over to big hotel, and we were both carrying bags.
"Oh, come on, Annabeth. Sometimes people need help. Why are you always so stubborn?" Percy asked.
"I am not stubborn!" I argued.
"Sure you aren't, sweetheart." He said.
I glared at him, hating it when people call me sweetheart! We walked over to the front desk, and got out room. For some reason, the lady there, who was dressed as a fairy, glared at me. I gave her a confused look and limped up to the elevator. The elevator was shining gold. It wasn't real gold, because it would have been too heavy, but it was convincing.
"How long does the costume party last?" I asked.
"Today, tomorrow, it will be normal. Well, as normal as Celebration could get." Percy said.
So, the town's name was Celebration…makes sense.
We walked over to the room, Percy talking sharp breathes every time his leg hurt him which was every time he took a step, and I opened the room door. The room was amazing! It was all white, black, grey, and royal blue! The walls near the bed were all big fish tanks! The bed was a pretty Silver, and Royal Blue color. There was a huge flat screen T.V. and black leather coaches, with weird decorations. The floors were white marble! MARBLE! My favorite stone!
I walked inside, and Percy quickly sat down in the nearest chair. He looked relieved, while I looked terrified.
"Percy, there's only one bed." I pointed out.
"That's alright. You can sleep in the bed, I will sleep in the sofa."
"No, your leg is messed up. You sleep in the bed."
"No, Annabeth, you will sleep in the bed." Percy argued.
"No, Percy, you will sleep in the bed."
We kept it going like this, until I was right in front of his face and he was so close I could feel his breath on my face. We stayed like that, frozen, just looking at each other. Grey to Green.
"Sleep on the bed, Annabeth."
"No."
"Fine, how about we both sleep on the bed. I'll stay on my side, and you'll stay on yours." He tried to find a compromise.
"Fine."
I went back to the bags and got three things.
A little blue towel
Pain killers
A metal object
I gave Percy the towel, and told him to bite it. He reluctantly agreed, as I applied the cold medicine on him. After a while, I hit his leg to see if he felt anything and he didn't.
"This is going to hurt." I told him.
"Do it."
I kneeled down next to his leg, and began talking out the bullet. Soon, Percy started biting on to the towel, and screaming into it. He tried to grab anything in his reach and held on to it until his knuckled turned completely white. I hit something metal inside Percy's leg, and began to take it out. Blood was going everywhere, but with my free hand, I stopped the blood with a towel.
"Got it!" I said, as I let the bullet fall on the floor.
Percy had sweat run down the sides of his face, and he looked hurt.
"I have to go take a bath, the-the water helps." Percy said, his voice full of pain.
"Okay."
I helped him, jump on one leg, to the bath room. I helped him inside, and yes he had his clothes on, and then I gave him a bag.
"There's medicine, clothes, towels, underwear, shaving things, and shoes in the bag." I told Percy.
"Thanks."
"Also, take the hair dye. It's blonde, and the contacts are brown." I said as I put in all on the counter.
"Thank you, Annabeth."
I nodded, and walked out.
Luckily, the room had two bathrooms. So I went over to the other, I had dark red (It's really dark, almost black.) hair dye, and blue contacts. I can't wait to see how I will look…
