Potty-Smell-Us

Annabeth

We turn around to see the only and only, "Grover!" Percy and I shouted at the same time before tackling him into a hug.

"What are you doing here?" He asked.

"Well I'm here trying to find the cure then when Thalia wakes up I can finally apologize properly, and Annabeth I have to do this, if I don't the guilt is eating me and I know, I know it's not my fault but just let me do this one thing and I won't bring it up ever again," Grover pleaded me with those big goat-y looking eyes.

"Fine, as long as you promise to never ever for the rest of your life bring up the incident," I crossed my arms.

"Yeah, cross your heart and hop to die," Tyson copied me by crossing his arms across his chest.

"Tyson it's hope to die and don't forget about pointing a needle in your eye Grover," Percy finished off and corrected his brother.

"Tyson, w-what are you doing h-here?" Grover noticed the little Jackson. Grover and Tyson aren't on the best of terms you see when Tyson was first adopted he didn't trust people other than the Jacksons so when Grover came over to play once Tyson attacked Grover leaving him with a broken arm and a black eye, ever since then Grover has been afraid of the little tyke.

"I had to take him with me," Percy explained.

"Oh and I should mention one more thing, I'm not here alone-" Before Grover could finish another voice joined the conversation.

"Yo fuzzy legs, where'd ya go?"

"You mean, she's here too," Percy gulped.

"Well if it isn't Prissy and princess," a familiar silhouette of a buff female approached us from the forest.

"Clarisse," I greeted her.

"What are you doing here?" Percy asked though it sounded more like a demand, I was quite surprised when his voice didn't quiver like it did back in high school.

"Well Prissy if you must know, I need to prove myself to the old man," Clarisse sneered at the mention of her dad Ares.

Ares is your go to man when it comes to anything war related. He is a weapons master and the General of the Army, and he's the best of the best. Since Clarisse is his only daughter he has high expectations for her and he's always comparing her to her older (and more annoying) brothers Phobos and Deimos.

"Wait, I just realized something," Percy shouted getting all of our attention. "How did you get here before us? And how did you catch up to Clarisse before us?"

"Really Prissy that's your big realization?"

"Well I got a helicopter ride here and I didn't catch up to Clarisse she found and almost speared me." We looked at Clarisse who just shrugged it off.

"So where is the oh so magical golden fleece?" Percy asked.

"Some old mad scientist named Polyphemus currently has it and all we need to do is find his house or whatever he lives in," Clarisse gave us the details.

"Wait, his name is potty-smell-us man, did his mom hate him?" Percy bursted out laughing but the only person who joined was Tyson only because he had no idea what was going on.

"Percy, his name is Polyphemus," Grover told him after he realized that no one was laughing with him.

"Oh," Percy cleared his throat. "Continue Clarisse."

"As I was saying, I've already cleared through the forest and it's not there so what's left is that," she pointed behind us.

"You mean the mountain," Percy gulped. "As in we have to climb?"

"No we're going to sprout wings and fly," Clarisse made the flapping motion with her arms but her face had no emotion.

"I get it, I get it," Percy started to trudge his way towards the mountain.

"Come on, we better follow him before he hurts himself," I held Tyson's hand and we followed his idiotic brother.

"You know if I could get a house like this I would be okay with living in the Bermuda Triangle," Percy said as he looked from his spot on the mountain in awe while Tyson whistled.

I had to agree with him, from the outside the island looked like something you would see on a postcard advertising the Caribbean.

"But now I'm reconsidering it since I'm climbing this stupid mountain," Percy grunted.

"Prissy stop being a prissy and keep on moving your lazy as-"

"Clarisse watch your language, Tyson's here," I cut her off before Tyson could learn a new word that wouldn't be much appreciated by Sally.

"Fine, fine princess, don't get your panties in a knot, but the boy could use some toughing up. He is a body builder with the heart of a panda, it won't get him far in life but at least further than his brother over there." Of course that got a protest from Percy.

"Guys we're here," Grover informed us. Even though he was beside me climbing, I forgot about his presence for a bit.

The place was well as cave-y as a cave could get. There wasn't much but it looks like it could fit perfectly in 'The Flintstones'. From the opening of the cave, there was somewhat of a hallway which lead us to I guess it was a living room, then there were two paths we could of taken, one was to the kitchen while the other lead to the bedroom which was also the pen of a sleeping sheep. Weird. Tyson and Percy ended up searching the living room, I went with Grover to the kitchen but I was pretty sure the boy was just hungry and Clarisse went to check the bedroom. Although we were far away it was still close enough for us to hear and somewhat see each other.

"Now if I was a mad scientist where would I put a medicine that could potentially cure my poisoned cousin," Percy spoke out loud as he rubbed his chin in 'The Thinker' pose. "Out in the open would well be a bit too obvious so it would have to be hidden somewhere good."

"Percy, he lives on an isolated island in the middle of the Bermuda Triangle, I don't think having visitors would be his biggest issue," I let out a sigh.

"Oh yeah, oops," he let of a sheepish laugh and rubbed the back of his neck.

"Percy if you were a mad scientist, Thalia wouldn't be your cousin," Grover pointed out.

"Heh heh," he rubbed the back of his neck again.

"Prissy, if you keep thinking like that your brain is going to burn up from over use," Clarisse told him. I wanted to point out that, that wouldn't happen but that would just cause an unnecessary fight.

"Guys," I warned them.

"I found it." All eyes turned to the owner of the voice. In his meaty little hands was a round-bottom flask containing a golden liquid.

"You. Are. Kidding. Me." Clarisse sent a glare towards the flask.

"Tyson, w-where d-did you f-find it?" Grover asked.

Tyson walked back to where he found it and it we followed him, it wasn't a quick walk because after two steps Tyson stopped at the coffee table and placed the flask down.

"You. Are. Kidding. Me." Clarisse repeated herself.

"Well we found it now that's all that matters and we can now go save Thalia," I got my hopes up and started to usher the group out.

Just as we were about to leave the living room into the hallway we heard footsteps and a sheep bleat. We all looked at each other wide eyed thinking of how screwed we are.
