Chapter 9
Annabeth's POV
The wind whistled past as I tumbled towards the sea. I was falling quickly and the sea was only a few metres below so I quickly sucked in a deep breath, I glanced towards Thalia and saw her wrapped up tight into a ball and her eyes shut tight, screaming. I quickly closed my eyes just as I was about to hit the water. The impact was hard. The water knocked all the air out of my lungs and my body felt like I had just been catapulted into a brick wall.
I floated for a while in the warm water flailing and trying to find which way was up, eventually I was pulled into a boat. I must have been under for longer than I thought as the sky had now turned darker . I breathed in hysterically for a couple of minutes before looking up. Also in the strange boat sat a drenched Thalia who was sat silently, shivering. I also saw a Percy who was stood staring into the distance and muttering quietly.
"What are you doing?" I shrieked causing Percy to jump. "And where did you get this boat?"
"Don't do that! I nearly had a heart attack! Annabeth look around, we're not in a boat."
I took glanced back around the small space before realizing it was not in fact a boat ,but a bubble.I stifled a shriek as I realized we were actually deep below the waters surface near the seabed. All around us fish swam in shoals, in between beautifully coloured corals and long waving plants.I glanced up and saw far above us the sun shining through the water casting a beautiful blue haze on everything on the seabed. I took another couple of deep breaths before daring to speak again.
"HOW, how much air do we have?" I stuttered. Percy glanced around the bubble.
"Probably another couple of hours worth," he replied. He had sat down while I was watching the ocean floor. I slowly sank down onto the bottom of the bubble and hung my head in my hands as I tried to process what my eyes were showing me. I sighed and pushed back tears, the events of the past couple of days had suddenly come crashing down on me, in a crushing wave.
"How are you doing this?" I asked quietly.
Percy shrugged."I don't know how. I've been able to do this all my life. I can't explain it, I just feel at home here surrounded by water."
"Okay. Can we please just get to the surface as quickly as possible?"
"Yeah, sure. Just wait one second" He closed his eyes and his brow creased like he was concentrating hard. Slowly the bubble began to rise.
