Hey guys! As I said I'm updating today. I can't wait to right this chapter so I'm just going to get right to it.
Chapter 7
Annabeth
My day started off fairly normally. I got up, ate a small breakfast, practiced sword-fighting on a tree, and then headed out to get my horse.
I got everything I needed and brought it back to my house to set it up. When I finished, I walked back into town and into the town stables and looked at each horse. I found the perfect one at the back of the barn. She was caramel brown with a black mane. I decided I would name her Caramel.
I purchased her and brought her out out to the street. I then realized I didn't know how to ride a horse.
It can't be that hard! I thought. So I mounted onto the saddle. I kicked Caramel like I had seen Jordan, the riding instructor, do it but I guess I kicked too hard because she took off down the street right at a guy!
"Watch out!" I screamed but I was too late. Caramel had run him over. I pulled on the reins and Caramel stopped immediately. Still holding onto the reins, I ran over to the guy.
He had messy black hair and a cut across his forehead that was bleeding.
"Hello?" I said, tapping his cheeks lightly. "Are you awake?" He didn't move. His eyes stayed closed.
I flipped him over so he was lying on his back. I let out a sigh of relief when I saw his chest rising and falling.
I figured he wasn't going to wake up any time soon and I couldn't just leave him on the side of the road so I picked him up, which was extremely hard, thank you very much, and placed him on top of Caramel.
I walk alongside Caramel with the reins in my hands, adjusting the guy every so often so he didn't fall off.
When we finally got home, I tied Caramel's reins to the pole under the over hang. Then, I slung the guy over my shoulder and carried him into my house.
I put him on the bed and covered him with the blanket.
The gash on his forehead was still bleeding so I took one of my old dresses, ripped a piece off of it and placed it on his forehead. Sadly, I didn't have any medicine so I couldn't treat it.I put some bread, cheese, and a cut up apple on a plate and set it on the bedside table.
I had to get Caramel some water so I took my extra bucket and went down to the creek t fill it up I gave it to Caramel and went back to check on the guy.
When I walked into the bedroom, his bright sea-green eyes were open and he and a confused look on his face.
"Hi, I'm Elizabeth."
OOOOOHHHHH! Slight cliff there... How is Percy... or should I say Peter... going to react to Elizabeth/Annabeth? I'll try to update tomorrow or Friday. I promise I will have the next chapter up by Saturday night... L8R G8R!
