Ch.3 Annabeth, Rachel, Tammy and I have a Cheer-off
Disclaimer-I wish I owned PJO, but alas I'm just a fan. Rick Riordan is the genius behind it all.
Easier said than done.
We walked up to Tammy; Rachel, Annabeth, and me. For the first time, I noticed something different about her…she seemed even more evil, even more twisted than the last time I saw her(if that's possible). Her eyes were beady and bright red. Her teeth were as sharp as my sword. She seemed to be growing more powerful every minute…then I noticed that she was.
"You guys, she's getting stronger," I told Annabeth and Rachel.
"What do you mean, Percy?" Annabeth asked.
"Wow, Percy instead of Seaweed Brain." I said.
"Not now Seaweed Brain." Annabeth said back.
"Guys! Not now!" Rachel yelled.
"You girls ready? Let's go!" I said. We charged at Tammy, completely forgetting our plan. I held out Riptide and tried to stab at Tammy. She quickly swatted me away.
Tammy laughed wickedly. "You demigods think you can beat me? And a mortal? Now that's just insulting." Tammy began cackling cruelly.
Rachel had an angry grimace on her face. She yelled out to Tammy, "You think you're so tough! If you're this great creature, why did you run from us last time?"
"I'll show you how great I am!" The empousa hit Rachel with her tail. A smoke puff formed around her. Then Tammy was gone.
"Aw, I can't believe I let her go again." I said.
"It's not your fault, Seaweed Brain there's nothing we could have done." Annabeth said.
"We could have beat her." Rachel said.
Rachel and Annabeth went and sat at one of the tables. I just stood on the sidewalk in disbelief. A girl in a cheerleading uniform walked up to the hotdog stand. She looked at me and smiled.
"Percy? Percy Jackson? Is that you?" she said. I had no idea who this girl was. I tried to think back from all of the schools I went to. I also thought of girls from camp. She didn't ring any bells. She approached me and gave me a hug.
Not a minute to soon, Rachel yelled, "Percy it's her!"
The girl was still hugging me, I took the cap off of Riptide and stabbed it through her stomach. If it was a real girl, it wouldn't harm her at all, but if it was Tammy…it would. The hugging all of a sudden stopped. The Mist faded and I could see the girl for who she really was. Tammy. She instantly vaporized.
"Yeah!" I said. I was so happy to know she was gone, for now.
"We did it!" Rachel said.
"Yea, and as much as I hate to say it but we couldn't have done it without you, Rachel." Annabeth said.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Rachel asked.
"It means you're not that bad." she said.
As for me, I'm still at odds about who I like.
