Izzy Sprays a Shoe Monster

HolySnailProductions is BACK IN BUSINESS!

Ok I'm really, really sorry that this is sooooo late but I've been suffering from severe writers block and have not been able to get back into the story as well as I'd like. But I've got a (vague) idea about what's gonna happen so bare with me.

Also please don't squish me. I wont be able to write if I'm squished.

(this chapter is dedicated to Bubblesrulez :) )

(I don't own Percy Jackson, Rick Riordan does, but I do own Vicki, Izzy, and Cody Daniels [who might possibly end up being a nice guy... if I feel like it… which I do])

Percy's POV

The next morning I regretted buying Izzy a chocolate donut and letting her have some of my energy drink that I used to try and wake up with.

For the whole car journey afterwards, my usually lovely quiet little sister as bouncing around the back seat of the car, nattering on about all of the other cars and birds and trees that she could see from where she was sat. That morning Cody (much to my annoyance) was awake with the sunrise, insisting that we head out as soon as possible, which did absolutely nothing for my mood. Then just as we were cruising along the freeway, my day became slightly worse;

"Perwcy! I gotta go pee!" Izzy squirmed in her seat, I glared over at Cody as he tried to stifle his laughter. Resisting the urge to bang my head against the steering wheel I quickly indicated to get off the freeway and into the nearest service station. After I pulled into a parking space, I fished a couple of dollars out of my wallet and handed them to Cody,

"Get some food from the store while I deal with Izzy," I said by way of explanation, "and some drinks too, just not energy drinks," I sent a pointed look back at the still fidgeting Izzy and glared at the son of Apollo's amused expression.

"Ok, meet you back here in ten!" he said and quickly left the car in search of snacks. Sighing dramatically I reached back and unbuckled Izzy's seatbelt and lifted her out of the car before exiting myself.

"Come on Fizz bomb! Before you explode," as we headed towards the bathrooms, I had the weird mental image of an octopus exploding into a slimy tentacley mess with random starfish and anemones dancing in it.

…My head is so weird.

Thankfully no one was in the bathroom so we wouldn't receive any weird looks (cause we did look a bit like demented backpackers with our colourful but crumpled clothes) and we were in and out without any problems, (except for when Izzy decided it would be fun to spray me with the soap dispenser). The sun beat down on us from a clear blue sky as we searched the almost silent service station for our blonde haired companion. But something was off… it was quiet…

…too quiet.

Suddenly Cody burst out of the shop, running towards us with a hoard of Dracanae following behind. Cursing I drew Riptide and pushed Izzy behind me;

"Stay back!" I ordered her and with that I rand towards them, sword swinging in an attempt to send them back to Tartarus. I ended up fighting four at once, hacking and slashing with my sword as the others followed Cody, who had drawn his bow and was sending arrows flying into the Dracanae's bodies, making them disintegrate into sand and fly off into the wind.

But then Izzy let out an ear piercing scream as one of the reptilian women swiped at her with her claws; the was a rumbling sound from beneath the ground and a huge geyser erupted from under the monsters feet, sending it and its companions flying into a shoe stand where they dissolved on contact. While they were distracted I quickly slashed through the last of them before scooping up the food Cody had dropped and rushing over to where my car was parked; Izzy and Cody hot on my heals.

"That was awesome!" Cody exclaimed, giving Izzy a spectacular grin as we quickly got back onto the freeway, "The way that the water just shot out of the ground like that! And then when they just smashed into that shoe stand! That was just amazing!" I rolled my eyes at his enthusiasm (maybe he had had a chocolate bar in the shop) and glanced back at Izzy in my rear view mirror.

My adorable little sister was curled up in her seat, black hair surrounding her face as she cuddled the hoody that I had tossed there when I last drove the car, sound asleep. I smiled tenderly, she must have worn herself out with that boost of power.

While we carried on driving I wondered about the extent of Izzy's power; was the geyser what she wanted to happen? Or did she just let her emotions do the work for her? I was going to go with the latter. Either way, my littlest sister is pretty cool.

So there you have it! Sorry its not as well written as the rest of it, and the fact that Cody is a bit OOC, I sorta just went with where my mind took me! its not very long either but... i just rambled! I might write more soon but don't get your hopes up just yet cuz I've vaguely lost inspiration for this story but bare with me.

HolySnail OUT!
