This is Ian calling for backup

We finally crossed the border to Pennsylvania.

"WOO! WELCOME TO PENNSYLVANIA!" yelled Anthony.

"How much coffee did you drink yesterday at the rest stop?" I asked.

"I DON'T KNOW! TWENTY?" guess Anthony.

"Oh my gods, today is going to be really long now." stated Ariella. SNAP! I heard something in the woods.

"You guys hear that?" I asked.

"Hear what?" Sabina asked. I pointed at the woods. I pulled out my Broadsword, the group followed me raising their own weapons. I carefully walked. SNAP! I turned left. SNAP! I quickly turned right. A squirrel. "AWWW! A CUTE SQUIREL!"

"Yeah I guess that was a false alarm." I turned around so I could go back. FLEWP! I felt an arrow go RIGHT past my face. "WHAT THE?-" FLEWP! FLEWP! FLEWP! I ducked down and so did the others. I looked up, there were zombie like skeletons with arrows. "AMBUSH!" I yelled. "GUYS!"

"ON IT!" Ariella got out a throwing knife and threw it at the zombie skeleton. It shot him right in the head. I got my bow and fired it shooting ice arrows (Special Weapons Bought from the Hephaestus or Apollo cabin). One of them hit one of the monster, freezing it RIGHT on the spot. FWICK went the ice. "Anthony and I will take the flank, distract them!"

"Alright. Sabina, let's go, get your sword." I commanded. Sabina got her sword out and so did I. We charged at the zombie skeletons. I knocked a skeleton off it's feet and stabbed it down it's heart. I swiped it up and cut the throat of another one. Sabina stabbed one on the foot then made it up it's legs to it's neck. I grinned. More and more skeletons came.

"FOR IAN!" yelled Anthony from the east. Ariella and Anthony charged downwards unto the skeleton army. I stabbed and slashed, stabbed and slashed. I felt something grab my legs. I looked down. THEY WERE UNDER US! I stabbed downwards.

"IAN! ANTHONY GOT STABBED!" yelled Ariella.

"Oh crap." I said as I finished off a skeleton. I ran to Anthony on the ground with Ariella guarding him, Sabina followed me. "GET A WATER BOTTLE!" I yelled. Sabina gave me some. I poured it on Anthony's open wound.

"AH! IT HURTS!" Anthony grabbed on to me and started to squeeze.

"Don't worry, do anyone have hand sanitizer?" I asked.

"NO PLEASE! IT WILL BURN LIKE HECK!" Ariella tossed me a bottle while hacking a skeleton's arm off. I poured it on the wound. "AAAAAAAAAHHHHH! IT BURNS!"

I got out my library card and took off my t-shirt and made a bandage out of it. I pressured the credit card on Anthony's wound and tied my t-shirt on him hard. Anthony was panting, but the pain must've been gone. "You alright now?" I asked.

"A little bit, the hand sanitizer burns." Reported Anthony.

"Hey, it removes 99.99% Germs." I joked. Anthony gave a painful laugh. "Do anyone have a water sprinkler? The thing they use for gardening?" I asked.

"Here." Ariella gave me one.

"Thanks." I sprinkled it in the air and offered a drachmas as an offering. "Camp Half-Blood, Long Island. Chiron." Chiron appeared. "Hey Chiron! We need some reinforcements, can you help?"

"Where are you guys?" asked Chiron.

"North West Pennsylvania." I replied.

"You guys are in luck, we had a squadron of Half-Bloods near that area to make a Titan Arrest."

"Hey Hades gave us the same mission."

"Weird. Anyways, we will send the back up."

"Thanks." With that the IM disappeared. "Guys back up are coming."

"Ian can I talk to you?" asked Ariella.

"Not now." I kept pressuring Anthony's wound.

"It's really important."

"Fine what?"

"Can I talk to you in private."

"Fine. Hold the wound for me Sabina." Sabina ran over and pushed at the wound. I walked with Ariella. "So what's up?"

"I kno-" Snap.

"HEY! THE CAVALRY HAS ARRIVED!" said a Half-Blood. I looked over about 30 Half-Bloods were here.

"You were saying." I asked.

"Never mind."

"Alright."

"Where's the injured soldier?" asked the Half-Blood.

"Follow me." I said.
