Hello and welcome to my story! I'm kind of hyper, so you will have to excuse me. And here is .
Annabeth Pov.
Chapter. 10
Bye cat, hello crazy lady
"Hurry up Percy!" I said frustrated.
"I'm going as fast as I can, I don't want to drop it."
"It's a cat, if you drop it, I will only land on its feet."
"Well I still don't want to drop it."
"Ok we're almost there." We walked to the hospital and towards the reception lady. She had lovely blond hair, similar to mine. She was chewing on gum and reading a magazine. She wore a little too much make-up and had too much perfume on.
"Excuse me." I said in my sweetest voice. "But can you tell me where the closest veterinarian is?"
"Why." She said in an irritating voice. I stared at her for a few seconds. Before I could reply to her statement Percy cut in.
"We have a kitten that we found in an alley that we think might have some disease."
"How do you know?"
"Cause we found it in a dumpster." Percy said slightly annoyed by the reception lady.
"Why were you in a dumpster?" She said in a monotone voice.
"We were walking…"
"That's not the point. Do you know where we can find a vet?" She chewed on her gum, paused and replied.
" No." She said plainly.
"Do you know where we can find a person here that actually knows what they are doing?" Percy said as irritated as me.
"Yeah."
"Were can we find them?" I said half screaming at her.
"They're on lunch break." By now I think I destroyed my Tails toy.
"Forget it, let's go Annabeth." Percy grabbed my wrist, turned around and walked away.
"Wait are you guys looking for an animal doctor?" She said.
I smacked my face, turned around and said nicely.
"Yes do you know where it is?"
"Yeah, my pet turtle was walking really slowly. Cause turtles are supposed to run really fast on that spinney thing. But it wasn't, so I took him to the hospital. They didn't take him because he was a turtle. They told me to take him across the street to the animal doctors." She finally took a deep breath and was about to begin again, but Percy stopped her.
"Well thanks for that wonderful story, but we have to go."
We ran out of the hospital as fast as we can.
"Wow." Was all Percy could say.
"Let's not talk about it, I'm really confused.
"You think you're confused, all I heard was turtle, walking, spinney thing, hospital and street!" He exclaimed.
"Well let's just get this kitten to the animal doctor." I said smiling. Percy busted out laughing, I soon followed. How could a grown woman think that a veterinarian is called an animal doctor? Sure children say that, but they don't know the professional name. By that age they should know. I opened the door for Percy and walked in. I rang the bell on the table and waited.
"So what do you want to name it?" I said.
"Um… how about whiskers?"
"No something unique. Like Larry or Bob or…"
"I like bob." Percy said.
"Ok Bob it is."
"Hello sorry to keep you waiting. How can I help you?"
"Could you tell us where we could get this kitten checked-up?" Percy said.
"Is it your cat?" The lovely reception man said. This is fifty times better than that crazy lady.
"No we found it in a dumpster."
"Ow, give it to me; I'll make sure it finds a wonderful home."
"Thanks, but can we make sure it gets checked-up now?" I said.
"I'm afraid not, but you can check it when it comes up for adoption."
"Ok let's go Percy." I said sadly. Bob was the cutest cat. It's sad that he was left on its own.
"Sure." He said, looking down. We slowly walked out.
"Wait, did you name it? Usually animals that come in are named.
"We named it Bob." I said proudly.
"See you later Bob." Percy said slightly cheerful.
We walked out the door and to the streets. It was 3 pm. A few hours from now and these streets would be more filled with people. We crossed the street and walked past the hospital towards the ice-cream shop.
"Hey lets get some ice cream." Percy said trying to cheer me up.
"Remember that crazy lady at the hospital!"
"Yes." I said smiling.
"I can't believe someone can be that stupid."
"I know I thought you were the dumbest." I said lightly punching him. I don't want to make that mistake again.
"Let's get some ice cream." I said smiling my best smile at him.
I have decided that I am going to write a sequel. But I'll probably post the first chapter around November; because the story will be set around Christmas time.
