Okay! So I only got two reviews for my first chapter! Please try spreading the word so people can read this! Anyways, enjoy!
Annabeth's POV
I walked towards Percy and whispered to him about the news that I heard from Piper. Apparently, Jarett and Josh are missing and Connie has to fix all of this by going on a quest.
Yet, five minutes ago I learned that Percy and I were going on the quest with her and Leo. I wasn't bummed but I wasn't exactly happy either. In fact, I was somewhere in the middle.
I was kind of used to going on quests now so I'm kind of cool with it.
When I told Percy he wasn't that surprised. But right now he was trying to find his sister. Percy and I walked all around the camp until we saw Connie and Leo walking back laughing and holding hands.
You could see Connie had a little bit of that old sparkle she had when Jarett and Josh were around. But this time it wasn't as strong.
I smiled at Connie and Leo warmly yet Percy nearly tackled her with a hug.
"What the!" Connie laughed.
Percy started laughing and Leo came on top of the pile. Connie started laughing hard so I jumped on the pile.
"Get off of me! You're all so heavy!" Connie laughed.
I was starting to stand up until everyone tackled me and made a huge pile on me. I felt how heavy all of them were and I kicked them all of.
All of us started laughing but then we heard someone clear their throat behind us. I looked up to see Chiron with a very stern face.
We all collected ourselves and stood up.
"I recommend that you all get ready for your quest. You should leave as soon as possible," Chiron said.
By his tone I could just tell that it was an order not a suggestion. I looked up to him and nodded.
I ran back to my cabin and grabbed my backpack. I stuffed it with an extra T-shirt, nectar, ambrosia, my dagger, and lastly a book to keep me entertained though I probably wouldn't use it.
I shouldered my backpack and headed out towards the pavilion. Connie was already there wearing all her weapons including her darts, her sword that can also turn into a whip, ballistic knives, a sheath of hunting knives, a bow and arrows, a dagger, a hatchet, a ring that pops out a blade, ninja stars, and including her powers.
So if you ever see her with any of her weapons. You would not want to mess with her. Percy learned that the hard way and he ended up with a hatchet two millimeters from his face.
Connie is pretty skilled with all of her weapons. Especially with her bow and arrows.
Anyways, I walked up to her carefully as she sharpened her dagger.
"Hey Annabeth," she said without looking up.
"Hey," I said.
I sat next to her and smiled contently.
Finally after like ten minutes, Leo and Percy came in laughing. Connie stood up and sheathed her dagger.
"Okay, so where the heck are we going in the first place?" Leo asked.
"Well, Jarett and Josh were headed towards California so I'm guessing the necklace is there. So we should maybe take a plane or a boat," I said.
"Boat," Connie and Percy both said at the same time.
I shrugged, "fine."
We all walked towards the canoe dock and Percy commanded a full mast ship to come. Right there in front of us was a ship that was as big as the Argo II but even more elegant and balanced.
Connie climbed up the ship and she popped over the railing smiling!
"Come on in! It's amazing!" Connie yelled in excitement.
I ran in after Leo and Percy and I almost gasped. Right when I walked in I saw red carpeting and on each side of the boat were intersecting walls that seemed to match the boat perfectly.
Yet, there was everything we needed. There was a kitchen, bathrooms, even a sitting room! But there weren't any bedrooms so we had to sleep on the open wide deck.
Percy started manning the ship by raising the masts and managing the ballistae.
I saw Connie sit down at the edge of the deck. She was looking at a picture and I knew what picture it was because she started tearing up. I knew it was the picture she held when Jarett and Josh were in comas.
But instead of walking towards her I ignored it and walked towards Leo in the kitchen. The kitchen was full of food and supplies.
As I walked in, I smelled that Leo was cooking something good. Really good, I peaked over his shoulder and saw that it was pasta and burgers! I've never in all of my life had such a supplied quest.
This has got to be the best quest I've ever been on! So far…
Leo: Man that was short!
Me: I'm sorry! I'm tired today!
Connie: *snorts* You're just tired because we kept you up all night.. baby
Leo: *laughs and ducks as a chair hits the wall behind him that I threw*
Me: REVIEW!
