Chapter 11: Percy:
Hey guys, me again, sorry it's been so long, things are well… nuts. Somehow when the Kanes tested us to see if we were really Egyptians, I managed to make glowing blue hieroglyphs appear. I have no clue how I did that! I planned to just use my water manipulation skills to move the water and freak a couple of un-expecting Egyptians out. But nooooooo, things just had to get all weird and confusing.
If I had to guess how it all happened, I would have to say that it probably has something to do with that super freaky scarab tattoo, that the two Egyptian gods gave me. Just for the record, I am still really freaked out about that night; there is something about dreaming something, and then waking up and finding out that it wasn't a dream that can really mess up your day!
But if life wasn't complicated enough, Annabeth is now hosting an Egyptian goddess, which by the way messes up you day almost just much as the dream thing. Sekhmet, Amos had called it? It sounded familiar, but really school and learning things, never really was my forte.
But enough of that stuff, on with the story right? You guys don't want to hear all the stuff you already know! You want to hear what is going to happen next.
After Annabeth talked to the little voice in her head, she looked as freaked out as any person I had ever seen before. She was hyperventilating, and I noticed at a certain point she stopped blinking, that's not normal, is it? I really don't know, but my girlfriend was in trouble, and I knew I had to do something, but what? Maybe try to take all of the attention off of her for a little.
"Annabeth," I said calmly "why don't we go to our rooms and talk about this?" she nodded her head, obviously very pleased with my quick thinking.
"go on ahead," Amos said "get used to the idea, I will send Carter and Sadie up to talk you through this in a little bit, they have been through almost this exact scenario,"
I don't know why but I felt like punching him right in the face. We just didn't want to make a big deal out of it. Annabeth would most likely just want to go on with the day like this never happened. But I needed to get her out of here for now, so we could call Chiron or something.
"fine" I responded quickly to Amos's statement " we will be up stairs in our rooms," I said all ready grabbing Annabeth's hand and heading out the door of the library, which wasn't as great as Annabeth had described, it was just a big ole room of books, nothing extraordinary about it.
"Are you okay?" I asked immediately after we exited the library
"Yeah, I think so," Annabeth said, but I could see she was hurting
"it's going to be okay," I said positively, as if I knew it to be a fact, she smiled at me pitifully like she knew I was trying to help but she didn't feel any better, which I suppose was not the big surprise of the day.
"I am just really scared Percy" she said, I knew she was telling the truth, I hadn't seen her like this since we got lost in the labyrinth, and she thought it was her fault. I guess that made sense, maybe she thought that she did something to deserve this. Wait, we did, we came here to the Brooklyn house, to spy. I realized how the Olympians would feel if an Egyptian tried to spy on us inside of camp half blood. Maybe it was a punishment, maybe this was the gods trying to tell us to get out now, while we still had a chance. And it hit me, the line from the prophecy,
When war breaks out between both sides
Of course that's what it meant, I thought it meant a war between the Brooklyn house and us, but maybe it meant a full on war between the Greeks and there gods, and the Egyptians and their gods. That wasn't good, last I checked, Egyptians had like a bazillion gods, we hadn't even started the war yet, and we were already out numbered.
"We need to get a hold of Chiron" I said urgently "now!"
Annabeth didn't argue, she must have seen the importance of this in my eyes, and she nodded and we sped up our pace, to a medium jog, then to a full on sprint up the stairs.
I flung open the door to my bedroom, and the place had been ransacked. Clothes littered the floor, the dresser was ripped open and the mini fridge's door was torn off. The sheets in my bed were thrown everywhere, the pillows were ripped open and the feathers left a thin layer white fluff covering my floor.
Annabeth turned to me with a judging stare "nice," she said "one night here Percy and the place is already a mess," she looked over at the mutilated mini fridge "there is a key for that you know?"
"I didn't do this," I defended "I am not that messy, someone came here," I was starting to get really worried
Annabeth looked shaken, more shaken then she was a second ago, "they know!" she said turning to me with a sense of urgency in her voice "they know everything, they came in here looking for something,"
What she was saying made good sense "you room!" I suddenly realized, her eyes filled with shock and she cursed in Greek and fled the room to next door.
Her room was in the same condition as mine was—filthy.
She rushed over to her backpack and rustled through it, "Ohhh," she muttered then she swore again "my teddy bear is gone,"
"What?" I asked
She looked up in surprise realizing she must have spoken aloud, "nothing," she said quickly
Then she turned back to me, and pulled out her cell phone,
"Now we get serious," She said "no more Mrs. and Mr. nice Greek spies,"
"We need to talk to Chiron now!" I agreed
She began to dial the number, and I knew there was no turning back now, when a spell of light headedness flooded over me, I felt dizzy and was over whelmed by that top of the roller coaster feeling. I passed out. It was just like the night I had the dream where I got the tattoo, I was having another vision, and I just hoped this one brought better fortune than the last one did.
