Alright time me to tell the story. The right way. ('I do it right!') Yeah whatever. So where so where am I to start? Oh yes! It was the mean, ugly, boxer wearing, Minatour.
Scarlett widened her eyes. "Holy crap." Mabel breathed as Brielle screamed at the top of her lungs. "Showtime, little boy." Thalia said to Percy.
Fear spread across his face, "W-what?" Thalia smirked, "You heard me. Now go!" Percy had fought many monsters since he had run away but this guy was the biggest one yet. Luke took out his sword as Annabeth drew her knife. "Thalia." Luke warned. Annabeth stepped towards Percy, "Thalia, this isn't fair." Thalia was about to say something when the Minatour snorted and finally noticed them. His eyes narrowed at Percy and he stood his ground.
"Let him do it." Mabel told them. Percy looked at her surprised, but saw that she had a look of confidence on her face. She knew he could do it. Percy took a deep breath and charged at the beast. The bull-man charged too fast, his arms out to grab me whichever way Percy tried to dodge. Time slowed down. His legs visibly tensed. He looked so stupid. (Muffled yelling) So, I don't care if you were being attacked. You still looked stupid! Anyway!
He couldn't jump sideways, so He leaped straight up, kicking off from the creature's head, using it as a springboard, turning in midair, and landing on his neck. That was pretty awesome. ('Thank you!') Don't get used to it.
Then Luke, Annabeth and Thalia's jaw dropped. The bull-man staggered around, trying to shake him. Percy locked his arms around the horns to keep from being thrown. Annabeth shut her eyes tight; she didn't want to see her new friend get hurt. Scarlett kept thinking, 'this can't be real, this can't be real! Oh gods, don't let him hurt!'
Mabel so desperately wanted to help Percy but she knew she couldn't. He was going to be okay. Right? The bull-man screamed and flung Percy through the air. He landed flat on my back in the grass. His head smacked against a rock. Mabel screamed and started to run towards him but Brielle stopped her. When Percy sat up, his vision was blurry, but he had a horn in my hands, a ragged bone weapon the size of a knife. The monster charged once again.
Without thinking, Percy rolled to one side and came up kneeling. As the monster barreled past, Percy drove the broken horn straight into his side, right up under his furry rib cage. He moaned and clawed at his chest, slowly disintegrating. All that was left was little Percy holding a knife-sized horn.
"Thalia can we accept him now?" Luke said with an eye-roll. Thalia was too shocked to say anything. Annabeth ran up and hugged the little hero. "Percy! That was amazing!" Stop smirking, and don't go and get a big head. (Mumbled grumbling.) "But why didn't you use Riptide?" Percy's smile dropped and a embarrassed look replaced it. "Um… I forgot?" "Uhg! You Seaweedbrain!" Annabeth yelled as she punched him. "Ow! Well you-you-you"
"Yeah you keep working on that." She laughed. Mabel sighed, "Young love." Scarlett and Brielle giggled and Luke looked at her with a confused face. He was about to ask what she was talking about when Thalia spoke, "Hey why are those people dressed up?" She addressed seven kids wearing a Princess, Pimp, RockStar, Harry Potter, Winnie the Pooh, Witch and a Hobo costumes.
Brielle face palmed, "Guys! It's Halloween!" "Crap! I love Halloween!" Mabel pouted. "Guys, I hate to be the barer of bad news but we have no money. Witch means no food." Thalia said. As this depressing thought set in, Luke had an idea. Scarlett created the same thought. As they shared a look, a creepy look spread upon their faces.
"This dress is itchy." Annabeth complained. "At least yours fits." Brielle pointed out. "At least yours is attractive! And for a girl!" Mabel shouted. (Laughing.) Yeah it was pretty funny! Anyway. After stealing the kids costumes, Annabeth was the princess, Thalia was the rockstar, Luke was the pimp, Percy was Harry Potter, Scarlett was Winnie the Pooh, Gabby was a witch, and Mabel was the hobo.
But of course the costumes had problems. Annabeth's dress was itchy. Thalia's tights were ridding up. Luke's hat was way to big. Percy's pants kept falling down. Scarlett's upper half was too tight. Brielle kept having to pull down her skirt. Really Mabel's costume was the only on that fit perfectly. Except for the fact it was made for a boy.
"Come on guys. Just one more house! We almost have a whole bag full!" Thalia cheered. "Fine." They all groaned. They were all extremely tired from walking so long. "How about that house?" Percy yawned. "Sure, lets go." Luke said.
They all trudged to the door. Percy and Annabeth must have ringed the doorbell at least five times. The door opened and they were face to face with the Greek goddess Athena.
Ohhhh! The suspense! Yeah not really. Well R&R! I do not own PJO.
