Disclaimer: I do not own Percy Jackson and the Olympians or The Kane Chronicles.

So now it is time to see how the triplets are doing. Hopefully, no one has been injured (I'm not refering to the triplets on this one) or killed (still not refering to the triplets).

Anyway enjoy chapter 3!

Chapter 3

Penny's POV

I hate Duat kidnappings. Always so complicated and hard to escape from. And there was too much sand. Haven't the Egyptians ever heard of rocks or stone or dirt? Why so much sand?

Let me explain, I was waiting for my brothers to wake up as they were kidnapped as well for some reason. We're in a really sandy place in the Duat. For some reason, our kidnapper had left us here without so much as a guard. Strange, really strange.

The really bad thing about this was that I couldn't feel Zeus's head in mind. That meant I couldn't send word back telling everyone that we had been kidnapped and sent into the Duat. I doubted that anyone even knew we were here.

Suddenly, Perry shot up screaming. I instantly went to him and said.

"It's alright, Perry, it's alright."

He calmed down after a minute but he was still shivering like crazy.

"Penny, where are we?" He asked after a moment.

"In the Duat." I replied.

Perry stared at me for a moment and then he asked.

"How did this happen?"

"Well I was participating in karaoke night and someone grabbed me and dragged me into some kind of portal, I think." I replied. "I don't know about you."

"That's what happened to me as well but why would someone kidnap us?" Perry asked. "More importantly why would they send us to the Duat?"

"Well we do have Magician blood." I pointed out and then I asked him. "Do you feel your connection with Hades?"

"No." He replied shaking his head. "It's like he was never there."

"I can't feel Zeus either." I said. "I guess they can't be in places where Egyptian gods rule."

"I guess not." Perry agreed.

Just as he finished talking, Percy woke up. He sat up and asked.

"What happened?"

"We were kidnapped and sent into the Duat." Perry replied.

"WHAT!" Percy yelled.

"And we can't get a connection with Zeus or Hades since we're in a place where Egyptian gods rule." I added.

Percy shook his head as if he couldn't believe it. Then he asked me.

"How do we get out of the Duat?"

"You're not going to like this but..." I took a deep breath and then I finished. "I don't know."

Perry's POV

First, I had a terrible demigod dream. Then, I find out that we're kidnapped and I can't tell Hades to get us some help. And now, Penny doesn't know how to get us out of here. I have the worst luck ever.

"What do you mean, you don't know?" I demanded.

"I've never been sent into the Duat except for dreams and this is no dream." Penny snapped. "I have no idea how we're supposed to get out of this one."

"But you hosted Nepthys, surely you learned something from her!" I exclaimed.

"I learned a lot of things from her but I didn't learn how to get us out of here." Penny snapped again.

"So what are we supposed to do?" I asked.

"Find someone who does know how to get out of here and ask them." Penny replied.

"How are we supposed to do that?" Percy asked.

"We start walking and hope that we run into someone." Penny said standing up.

That was better than doing nothing so I stood up as well as Percy. Penny gave us a reassuring smiled and then she started walking.

We had nothing to do other than follow.
