Chapter 7 is up! Woot! COOKIES!

Disclaimer: Yes, I do own PJO and Rick is not responsible for them. Not. Oh, btw Bookluva98 owns Adonia and I actually own something. They are called Samantha and Juilia (To some extent. I still didn't buy that paten yet…)

Warning: May be Mary-Sueish.

Later we had our duel. Adonia brought out her knife and grinned evilly at me. I drew my now-metallic lightning sword.

"Alright, Samantha. We shall begin our duel." She told me.

"Of course. I am ready." I replied.

She nodded and lunged with her knife at me. I brought up my blade and her knife clanged against it. I kept trying to block while she was whipping her knife everywhere (Ok, Adonia is NOT a Mary-sue. I repeat, Adonia is NOT Mary-sue. Remember she has a lot of experience). I slashed my sword at her and she caught the blow on her blade. She somehow threw my sword and pointed her knife at my throat.

I backed off and coughed.

"Okay, that was awesome. I seriously need some work here." I said, feeling terrible.

"It's okay," Adonia told me. "It might not be the easiest thing you can do. Try archery. You might be better there."

We ran to the archery zone and found Chiron teaching Percy (Or trying to, whichever comes closer).

"Hello Chiron, we wanted some archery practice." Adonia called to him.

He turned around and smiled.

"Hello you two. Was it Samantha that needed practice?" He could see right through all of us.

"Yes, she just can't get good at sword-fighting so we wanted to try archery to see if that was good." Adonia explained.

Way to make me feel better Adonia. I feel so happy now. Not.

"Very well then." He said and tossed us both a bow.

He taught us for awhile and then we were practicing on our own. One shot after another. Never got a bulls-eye that day but I wasn't very good.

I sighed. "I'm not good at anything!" I cried.

"Nonsense, you just haven't practiced enough." A voice said from behind us.

We turned around and found that blonde-haired Hades kid.

"Oh, Zach. Hi." Adonia said like she was bored.

I was the exact opposite. "Whoa, man! How on Earth did you get here!" I exclaimed.

"I Shadow-traveled." He said simply like it was obvious.

I raised an eyebrow. "Okay…" I said.

"Look, Sam. There's something important I have to tell you." He whispered to me.

"What is it?" I asked.

"Let's go in the woods. I don't want anyone to hear this but us." He said.

"Okay." I agreed and we went off into the forest, me not knowing what I had gotten myself into.

Sorry about this. I've been really busy getting ready for school and all. It starts tomorrow. I know its short and most will be now. I will most likely update on the weekends now and those one will be longer than this. I just had to get something out there before school. Hope you enjoyed it and do me a favor and review by pressing that little button right below this!
