I got a question about what Taylor's purpose is in this story.
If you do a bit of Re-Reading I think it will click a little.
Ok as a reminder this girl that got knocked out her name is Mara.
Do not disrespect!
Chapter 11: I wake up to apple juice ice cream.
Mara's POV
"Ow my, well everything." Were my first thoughts when I came to.
Next was: "Where in the world am I?"
Finally there was: "Am I hallucinating or does that dude have eyes all over his body?"
I didn't exactly know where I was.
Maybe a hospital.
If so, why are there weapons hanging on the walls?
I had a cast on my leg, my other leg and stomach were bandaged.
I thought I was going crazy when I looked out the window.
Sword battles, kids with goat legs, a horseman, and a lava spewing climbing wall.
I knew I was forgeting something....
Taylor and Riley!
What happened to them?
Just then a boy walked in.
He looked about 16 or 17 with black hair and green eyes.
"Oh, good. You're awake." He said.
"Yeah. And you are?" I asked.
"Oh. I'm Percy, and you?"
"Um, I'm Mara." I said softly.
I needed to stop talking, I was wasting energy.
I felt sick and dizzy.
I looked at my hands, to see if my gloves were still on.
I would need them if he was gonna try anything stupid.
"If you are wondering what happened to your friends, they're fine."
"Can I see them?" I asked.
If he said no then I would know that they weren't 'fine'.
"Yes, but you might wanna have some of that first." He said gesturing toward the glass of something that looked like apple juice. "It will help you regain your strength."
"Really?"
"Yes."
"Fine, it's just apple juice."
"Woah hold it! It doesn't taste....."
I had taken a sip, and it came right back out of my mouth.
"So what's it taste like to you?" He asked.
"Umm, I think Bear Claw ice cream." I said in between finishing the glass. "Ok, why does it taste like ice cream?"
"It tastes different to everyone."
"Why does it taste weird then?"
"I don't know."
"Can I go see my friends now? And don't tell me I need more apple juice ice cream."
He was smirking now. "You might need those." He said pointing to the crutches leaning against the wall.
"I don't need any stupid crutches." I said propping myself up.
I tried to get up on my feet, instead I went down.
"Fine," I said sounding a bit defeated. "I'll use the stupid crutches."
"Your friend Taylor is in that big house past the volley ball courts."
"Thanks, Percy."
He smiled and waved me goodbye.
It was slow going across the fields.
I saw some one talking to Taylor in front of the large house with the nasty paint job.
It was one of those goat boys I saw through the window.
For the first time I noticed Taylor was a Goat boy too.
Minus the beard, horns, and the curly hair.
Honestly, he didn't look like them at all.
Most of them have curly brown hair, he has straight, short, black hair.
The boy he was talking to, looked about sixteen.
But his beard looked a little full for a sixteen year-old.
I walked up to say 'hi' but Taylor spoke first.
"Mara! You're finally awake!"
"I've only been out for a couple hours. Right?"
"Uh, actually you've been out for five days." The other goat man said.
"What!" I yelled.
"By the way, my name is Grover." He said.
"I'm Mara, by the way."
"Your buddy here is very special compared to us normal satyrs."
"Satyrs?" I asked.
"Yeah about that," Taylor said. "I should have told you sooner."
"Told me what?"
"How about we skip the drama fest and show her the introduction video." Grover said.
I'm a lazy person yes sorry.
I'll do a bunch more chapters now.
