Alright, so should I respond to some reviews? Yeah, I am!
ItsYaBoi325: Of course she knows how much trouble she caused! She's a daughter of Poseidon! She is a beacon for trouble!
PurpleBunny5504: Yeah... I just needed Percy to find out and Rose wasn't supposed to tell anyone... but Luke never said he couldn't tell, so... loophole! He brought that on himself.
OceanBlueSeaEyes: Oh, I have that all planned out, don't worry. And yeah, a few minutes doesn't make a difference.
BlackJackkk12: Thanks...? Please no cussing...
Disclaimer: Sadly, I don't own the glorious universe of Percy Jackson, if I did, I doubt I would be writing this.
So... on with the chapter!
I jogged along after Luke until we made it to a dock, and you could see a huge cruise ship a little off into the water. "How did you get that?"
Luke looked over at me and smiled, "I have my ways, we also have a titan on our side... so..." I nodded and paced around for a little. I doubted Dad would help out after I just tried to kill his son, my brother.
Then and two ideas came to me, "Alright, I could probably get Midnight out here, or we could swim, your choice."
Luke thought for a minute but decided to use Midnight instead of getting wet. I rolled my eyes at his obvious dislike of water and whistled as loudly as I could. I got a few odd looks from, what I guessed, were tourists, but this was New York, not the weirdest thing people had ever seen. After about five minutes there were two black smudges on the horizon, she must have brought Blackjack.
That was fine with me, I mean he seemed to like Luke, and Luke did well around the pegusi. When they landed, I smiled. "Hey girl, how are you?"
I'm good, just a little hungry.
I rolled my eyes and got on, Luke doing the same for Blackjack. After we were settled, they took off and I gave them the directions to go the cruise ship. "So, what's the plan?" I asked Luke once we were in the air.
Luke smiled and said, "Our first step you may not like too much, I don't either, but we need a specific quest issued at camp."
"What do they need to do?" I asked, Luke always made things completed for himself.
"Get the Golden Fleece," he looked over at me, I stilled, why would we need that?
So I asked, "What would we do with that?"
"Resurrect Kronos."
"Okay... so how would we get that quest started."
At that he winced. "Well... that's the thing..." Luke looked up and we had just landed on the deck of the ship then blurted out, "We have to poison Thalia's tree!" Then dashed off to Zeus knows where. I stood there shocked, why would Luke purposely hurt someone, or something in this case, so close to him. Thalia was basically his little sister.
After the shock passed, I felt anger bubbling under my skin, Kronos was corrupting Luke. I had an argument with my head that went something like this.
"I can't stay! Luke isn't the same anymore!"
And, "But I can't leave him, there's still a little Luke Castilian down there somewhere."
In the end, I did stay, and we started our plan for getting that quest issued.
The next few days were pretty dry, I mean, I wandered around the ship, learning all of the nooks and crannies, you know, learning your environment. Some monsters had been boarding everyday, and there were zombie like things meant to be passengers milling around. They were kinda awkward to be around, so I generally avoided them, but some of the monsters had some amazing stories with run-ins with heroes.
I yawned and padded back to my room, the good thing about having a titan on your side is that you didn't have to do chores, so I could walk around without shoes without my socks getting dirty. Once I got back to my room, I slumped on the couch and pulled out bracelet Percy got me for Christmas.
Luke and I had a mini celebration together, like watching a movie and a little bigger meal than usual, but we have to keep out supplies at a healthy level, so know big blow outs. He had gotten me a new blanket, which I was grateful for, the ship wasn't the warmest, I made him a card at the last minute, so it wasn't my best work.
Then a knock sounded on my door, I shook my head and dragged myself up. I stumbled over to the door and opened it to Luke's smiling face, I smiled back and he said, "Want to go for a ride into town, we need to stop by the store."
"Sure! I could get out if here," Luke left and let me put on some shoes and tame my crazy hair. I jogged over to the stables and saw the Son of Hermes sitting on a hay bale. I walked over to one of the cupboard and pulled out a bag of sugar cubes and grabbed out a few, as well as a donut from a box for Blackjack. "Here you go guys, ready to go?"
They both got very excited at the sight of the sweets, but didn't answer my question, I sighed and gave them the treats. "Alright, here we go," Luke climbed on the back of Blackjack, while I hopped up on Midnight. I checked my pocket for Tsunami and was happy to feel the cool plastic against my fingers.
Then, we were off. We flew above the water and it took about ten minutes to reach the shore. We let them fly around to stretch their wings longer than 20 minutes while we picked up some food such as pasta, fruit, vegetables, milk, you know the usual.
So? Thoughts?
I hope you liked it, and sorry for being late, but school has started again for me, and I can only get about 200 words written a day, not counting weekends, so... yeah!
I hope you liked, also, please no cussing in your reviews, thanks!
