A/N Hey guys. Bet you forgot about us, huh? Haha. Anyway WE ARE BACK. Even though it hasn't been that long... So does anyone else love the show Shadow-hunters? Oh my gosh I ship Alec and Magnus! *squeals* Okay, wrong fandom. Here is chapter 12...
We do not own PJO or HoO, that's Rick
Chapter 12
Travis's POV
I told Allison that she could sleep now. She happily agreed. I sat down in front of a tree and thought about my dream.
Why in the world would I dream that? Maybe it was a warning of some kind.
I quickly woke Allison and Rose.
"Guys," I said. "I think we need to go."
"Why?"
"I had a dream."
"Travis, tell us what happened in your dream," Allison demanded.
I explained everything. When I finished Rose looked worried and Allison looked curious.
"Come on." she said. "I guess we should probably go anyways."
So, we packed everything up, and left.
Two days later, we found an ad in the newspaper that read "Mysterious Forest Fire in Spectre."
"Hmm...I don't think that could have been a coincidence," Allison stated.
"Maybe... Let's just keep going," I replied.
We began walking again and found a small diner. Inside, we sat at a booth and ordered some food. While we waited, we discussed our next move.
Katie's POV
I met Connor outside the door, and after that, we left on our quest. After we left, he stared back at the house until he couldn't see it any more. Then, he started to run. I followed him, as he was my quest-mate, and, well, I couldn't just leave him behind. Or, in this situation, in front of me.
After we had run for as far as we could (which was about forty-five minutes), we sat down, stopping to catch our breath.
"We," said Connor. "Are never going back there."
"What?" I cried.
"You heard me."
"But why?" I said. "I mean, it's a goddess, Connor. A goddess. We can't just directly disobey her."
Connor shook his head, sighing. "Some rules are made to be broken."
"But she'll fade!" I cried.
Connor just shook his head and sighed some more.
"Come on." he said. "I see a diner. Let's go eat there."
On the way into the diner, we were met with none other than-
Rose, Travis, and a hunter whose name I didn't know.
I glared at Travis, remembering Sandra.
"Katie!" Rose yelled when she saw me. We ran to each other and hugged. We are sisters after all. We pulled apart and Rose introduced me too Allison, the Hunter.
"It's nice to meet you, Allison," I said.
"And I you."
"So...anyone up for some milkshakes?" Connor asked.
"Sure!" we all replied.
I glared at Travis even more. He must have noticed because he looked at me oddly.
"Katie!" he cried. "I'm so glad you're safe!"
I rolled my eyes. "You lied, Travis. Why would I believe you now?"
Travis got a confused look on his face. And I had to admit, he looked cute. Stop Katie!
"What do you mean?" Travis asked.
"Let's not talk about this in here."
"Okay. Let's step outside."
"Fine."
I walked out of the diner with Travis hot on my heels.
"So, what is this abo-" Travis gets cut off.
I slapped him.
"How could you kiss me then go cuddle with Sandra?!" I yelled.
"What...oh gods. You saw that."
"Yeah I did. Sorry to impose your special moment," I said as I started towards the door.
Travis grabbed my elbow and spun me around to face him. He pit his hands on my shoulders.
"Katie... I don't like Sandra. I was hugging her because her hamster died and she was crushed. I tried to pull away but she wouldn't let go. I don't like her. I like... I like you. Katie I like you," Travis said the last part in a whisper.
"Oh gods. I'm so embarrassed. I'm so sorry I judged you quickly! I really like you too."
"Everything is forgiven. I think we should get back before Connor drinks my milkshake."
"Okay. But there's something I wanna do first."
Before Travis could reply, I pulled his down and crushed my lips to his. Travis kissed me back, which sent butterflies through my stomach. I pulled away and rested my forehead against his.
"We can go back now," I say. I pay his cheek and skip off towards the door, my smile bigger than the Cheshire Cats.
Allison stares at me as I walk inside.
"Your milkshake came. What took you guys so long?"
"Um..." I say, blushing. "We-"
"Had a lot to explain." finishes Travis.
Allison just rolled her eyes and shook her head.
"Whatever. Okay, so Connor explained your quest. I think our quests were meant to intertwine. You have to find a gem, we have to find the missing girl."
"I thought Katie was the missing girl?" Travis replied.
"Apparently not. I think someone else is missing..."
"Who?"
"I don't know."
"Well that helps."
"It's better than nothing! Do you have anything better!?" Allison yelled.
"ET phone home." Connor said creepily. (A/N there's the quote. Good luck)
We all stared at him.
"Oh-kaay." I said. "Not even going to comment on that."
Connor coughed,"Okay, let's move on from that. So, we head west?"
"Yes. You are smart aren't you, little one?" Allison mocked.
"Hey, no need to be mean, sis."
"Blah, blah, whatever."
"Guys." said Rose. "Can we please stop arguing? Geez, people."
"Sure." we all said at the same time.
This was going to be hard.
A/N Thanks for reading! So, anyone good at ice skating? I've never been, going ice skating for a friends birthday party though. I'm going to fall on my butt the whole time! Yay, fun times! Wish me luck! Anyway, PLEASE REVIEW. It helps motivate us. ;) Until next time.
Goodbye and may the fandom be with you.
