Hey everyone! New chapter. Sorry the last chapter was a little awkward and blocky, i'm still getting back into the groove. This chapter is definitely gonna have action. I heard that the battle with Polyphemus was short and kind of boring, so i'm gonna make this battle a lot more interesting.
Right when we knew what it was, I sounded the horn twice, alerting the campers to stay in their cabins. I went outside, and walked around the bighouse. Everytime i looked around a corner, I did it through the reflective blade of Whirlpool. We went around to the back of the big house and I heard it. A faint slithering noise coming from the brush behind the big house. I cut it down with whirlpool, and walked into the woods. There was a perfect path where the basilisk went, we followed it for about 20 feet, when we saw where it stopped. It stopped at a hole in the ground. We waited for a few to see if it would come out, but it didn't. We started back towards the big house, when we heard a snap of a twig behind us. I looked behind us with Whirlpool, and sure enough there was a 50 foot long snake behind us.
"Don't look it in the eyes! You'll be petrified!" Annabeth shouted. I turned around as fast as I could, and swung my sword. It hit the basilisk, but not fatally, It made a blood curdling noise, and fell to the ground. I opened my eyes a little to see if it was dead, but it wasn't. Right when I opened my eyes, I closed them, because the basilisk was getting back up. He reached up and thrashed about. He smacked it to something and I heard a large snap. The monster made a horrible scream, and hit the ground. Then I had an idea. I sensed out for water, and there was a creek nearby. I pulled the water towards me, and surrounded myself with it. I then opened my eyes and looked at the basilisk. I didn't get petrified, I waited for a second, but I was fine. I walked a little, and the water bubble followed me.

I looked down on the ground near the golden dust. There were some spoils of war on the ground. There was a Basilisk fang on the ground covered in golden dust. I picked it up, blew it off, and observed it.

I put it in my inventory for later. I sheathed my sword, which conveniently turned back into a pen, and put it in my pocket. I went back to the big house, to the front and went inside. I rang the bell twice to let everyone know that the threat was gone, and blew the conch to call breakfast.
Chiron came up to me and put his hand on my shoulder. "Good work ."
"Thank you sir."
"Now, it's time for some breakfast."
