The Immortal Battle

The Immortal Battle

I saw Luke. His golden eyes were chasing me. I ran and I was shouting but my yells echoed off and were cut off, as if sliced into thin air. I screamed, as something shook me and I heard someone's voice, crying "Julia! Help!" And then the scene changed.

I was falling. And falling. And suddenly I felt a huge pain all over as if I had slammed into something. I felt wet and I couldn't breathe.

I woke up. And I looked around me and screamed. I was in the middle of a lake. Maika was flying off into the distance. No, she was being pulled. I saw nobody on her back, which meant my friends were gone. I shuddered.

The shore was too far away to see, but I swam. Thank the gods I was on swim team. But right now I could use a little help from Poseidon.

The waves were big and it was hard to swim over them, but I tried to push on. The water was taking chunks out of my strength. My body ached from the hard fall I had taken.

1 and a half hours later I accepted the fact that I was going to drown. I was about 20 meters from the shore but I was sinking. I tried desperately to move forward with sudden bits of energy. But I just flailed in the water, choking, coughing.

Suddenly, a huge wave came from behind me, and just when I thought it was the end, it carried me to where I could stand. I trudged slowly onto the beach and collapsed.

Somewhere half a mile away Annabeth rolled down a big hill until she banged into a tree trunk and stopped...

I felt myself being slammed onto the ground and rolling, and I saw blood from the scratches. I banged into the tree trunk and remembered crying out "Percy!" I opened my eyes. My clothes were torn and I was all bloody. I had bruises everywhere.

All around me were hills and a lake, a very big lake. I looked into the sky and I saw Maika being pulled away by a big force. I didn't see any of my friends on her and I assumed they were scattered around here somewhere. I decide to set up a camp with a fire so maybe my friends could find me.

I made a small leaf bed and took twigs from the forest to my right to make a fire. I found two rocks good enough to try to make a spark and after a while and 3 times having the flame die out, I got the fire going. I added a lot of wood and it made the fire very big.

I went to the lake and washed my cuts. I took leaves and pieces of my clothes as bandages. I went out to find some wild raspberries to eat and then caught a fish in the lake with a Target plastic bag I found. I put it over the fire and then ate it with the berries. I washed it down with some water I boiled in Maika's bowl to measure out her vitamins that I had accidentally brought.

Thank you Dad for making me go to girl scouts! I thought. I was very proud of my little campsite except the fact that I had no protection in the night from monsters. I thought about making a fence but it was dark and I was tired from my little rendezvous. I lay down with my Yankees cap on, just in case.

About a mile from both Julia and Annabeth, Lily fell into a tree. It held her and she was terrified to get off...

I was falling, I was sure of it. I felt myself crash into to something pointy, and I grabbed the air until a branch found its way into my grip. I screamed when I looked down. I was hanging off a tree, and ground was 20 meters away. I hugged the tree and was instantly embarrassed. What if there was a hidden camera and this was all a joke? All my half-brothers and sisters will call me Tree Hugger and they'll laugh at all the things in my hair and my cuts and my smeared make up... I don't wanna go back home! I thought. But then I thought of my friends and I freaked out. I knew I had to climb down soon, or my strength wouldn't hold. I agreed to just wait a little while, just in case there was help coming.

Half an hour later I decide to climb down. My hands were slipping and twice I almost slipped off into my death. Nearly 5 meters to the ground my hands were shaking and I just couldn't hang on. I fell and bumped myself badly, but I was all right. I decided to trek off for my friends before darkness came. I didn't want to be any where near that forest.

And so I set off, holding my knife as hard as I could with my hands aching so much.

2 miles away, Sara was falling.

I was barreling down to my death. I was falling really fast, but then I landed softly. I was on a pile of hay. I looked around. I was at an old shack with a stable. There were whinnying sounds from the stable, and the shack was torn down, and part of it was ashes. I didn't have to open the door to go inside; the walls were down. Inside were a tiny kitchen and a bed. In the kitchen I fed myself some slightly stale bread with a nice jam. I drank the milk in the bottle and found a pitcher of cream which I licked out the rests of. I remembered my friends and decided to make use of this. I took some food and a first aid kit.

I went to the stables and found 4 horses. I took 2, and let the others free. I tied the two horses I was taking with me together, and set off in search for my friends. I found a trail and started to go faster.

Soon it turned darker and I neared a lake. I decide to tie the horses to a log and I fell asleep.
