Chapter 7: The Dragon From Cabin 9

Just as the song "High Way to Hell" ended and "Scars" by Papa Roach came on, our picnic was interrupted.

As so as we heard the big, earth shaking steps, we were ready to fight. Our swords were drawn and we were ready for a fight. I pressed the emergency button on my watch that would signal my brothers and Jazz. It was a gift from my father to his children, along with Jazz, D.J., and Ollie.

In a few minutes all of my siblings, save Nile and Zero, would be here.

"What the hell!" D.J. yelled.

"I don't know."

Just then we heard shouting, then it came out of the woods.

It was a huge bronze dragon. It was at least 15 feet high and about 20 feet high long. It had razor sharp metal teeth and it had a wing span of about 40 feet, but it seemed like it couldn't fly.

But that wasn't the worst part. The worst part was that it breathed fire.

When it emerged from the forest it breathed a column of fire right by us.

We dodged it just before it reached us. Just then the entire Hephaestus cabin came rushing through the woods followed by the by the Apollo and Poseidon cabins.

"Holy Hades! Where did that thing come from?" screamed Ollie.

"Quickly, the nets! Get the nets!" screamed a Hephaestus camper, Jake Mason.

"DUCK!" as he said it, D.J. pushed me to the ground with him on top of me protectively.

When we hit the ground I could hear running water. I focused hard on it. I felt the familiar tug in my gut and the water came and hit the dragon in the mouth.

My brothers caught on and helped. The Hephaestus campers launched the net at the dragon. Just as the net was about to hit it, the dragon took off to the woods, and escaped. The Hephaestus kids all ran after it.

Once they were gone, D.J. and I got up slowly. Percy, Jake, Alex, Zac, Wolf, Ollie, and Jazz all ran over to us. Jazz was the first.

"Sis, are you ok?"

"Yea. D.J. are ok?"

"Yea," he said as he got up. He winced as he did this.

"D.J. your hurt," I said.

"Come on man we're getting you to the Big House," Ollie said as he and Percy helped him up.

"Dude I've been in worst than you have like when I made Mt. St. Helen erupt."

"I remember that. You scared the entire camp half to death," Said a disembodied voice. Then Annabeth appeared with her Yankees cap in hand.

He smiled and said, "Don't you mean I scared you half to death?"

Once he said it, she slapped him.

"Come on, can we get him to Chiron before he gets hurt worse?" I said.

Once at the Big House, Chiron fixed D.J. up. His back was badly burned, but a little nectar took care of it. Chiron bandaged him up and I brought his stuff back to his cabin for him while Chiron was doing that. Once he was all bandaged up I walked him to his cabin. It was a quarter to 8. I looked around and saw all kinds of pictures of us growing up. All of us at Jazz's tenth birthday, us at the lake, playing ultimate hide and seek (don't ask) and at my sweet 16 that they through for me.

I stayed there with him for a while. We laid in his bed, his arms warped around me. We were quiet for a while, till he said, "I love you."

It was so sudden I didn't know what to say. Then I looked him in the eyes and said "I love you to."

He smiled and kissed me.

It was the perfect end to the almost perfect day.
