Chapter 10: Consequence of Pixie Sticks

(Percy POV)

"There coming soon, Master."

The man with gold eye's glanced over his shoulder. "Good. Now, do they have the knife?"

"The cursed blade? Yes."

"That's perfect. Make sure they have a proper welcoming when they get here, can you do that?"

The man shifted nervously. "Y-yes Master." He bowed and walked away.

"Perseus." I was jumped out of my thoughts. "You will come in a great handy to me. So long, until again tonight." He laughed cruelly.

-Line Break-

I jolted awake sitting up, my breaths shallow and fast.

I took in my surroundings. I was in the back seat of a car, Annabeth was next to me asleep, with a wet spot on her lap. Probably droll from me

sleeping on her legs. In front of the car was Piper, also asleep, and Thalia listening to her music not paying attention to anything but the road.

Gosh, I have a huge headache. What happened last night? Oh yeah, I got high on Pixie Sticks, why did Piper trick me into eating those?

I groaned trying to get the headache to go away. I layed down back on Annabeth's lap, closing my eyes trying to get more sleep.

"Ugh, my neck kills!" I heard Annabeth mutter. I ignored it, my headache getting worse.

"Have a nice sleep Annie?!" Thalia yelled. Ugh, now I have a stomachache. Not good from being sick and eating so much sugar.

Annabeth pulled off Thalia's headphones. "Hey!" Thalia yelled.

Annabeth just rolled her eye's. "Piper get up." She said shaking her shoulder.

"Ugh, what?" Piper exclaimed

"It's nearly noon, it's not healthy to sleep that much." Annabeth said.

Thalia put her headphones back in and focused on the road. Her foot pressing down slowly, but surly speeding up.

"Thals, you better slow down. We will probably get pulled over." Annabeth said. My motion sickness was getting worse by the second.

"Naw, I'm alright. The faster we get there the better, right?"

"Whatever, but if we get pulled over you're paying the ticket."

It was silent for a little bit after that, I was almost asleep. Annabeth was combing my hair with her fingers and her other hand was rubbing my back.

I started to think about my dreams. What did I say last night? I was getting high on Pixie Sticks, telling Thalia and Piper a story. Then what? I can't

remember it. Wait, I whispered something to...Annabeth! Yeah, it was about...Oh no, I told her about my dreams; about Kronos.

I mentally started lecturing myself. Annabeth must be freaking out, but I didn't tell her everything. That's good, she would probably be freaking out.

Kronos was planning to do something to me, and he had to use the cursed blade, Annabeth's knife.

I was suddenly jolted out of my thoughts when I heard a siren. Great, just great.

"Told you..." Annabeth said to Thalia.

"Shut up. Wait, I don't look like my age. I look like a 15 year old! Now I will have to pay for a huge ticket!" Thalia ranted.

"Just pull over Thalia." Annabeth said completely annoyed.

Thalia pulled over. I was still in pain 'sleeping' on Annabeth's lap. I opened one eye, Thalia was lets say freaking out. A man about 5.8' walked up to

the window, and knocked on it. Thalia hesitantly rolled it down.

"Y-yes officer?" She asked in the sweatiest voice she could make. I had to hold in a snicker.

"Did you know you were going 80 in a 60 speed range?" He had a gruff voice, making him sound like he just stopped smoking. Or started.

"Oh no! I must have read it wrong, you know I do have dyslexia." Thalia responded in the same voice she used before.

"Let me see your lisense."

"Oh yes! One moment." Thalia turned to Annabeth. I quickly closed my eye. "Annabeth give me Percy's license!" Thalia whispered at her.

"What? Why?" Annabeth asked, clearly confused.

"I can pass off as Percy, sort of...Well the officer has glasses Anyways, I'll just knock them off. Now give it!" She whispered back.

"Fine." Annabeth answered back searching my pockets. It would be really awkward if we weren't boyfriend and girlfriend.

Thalia did a quick smile at the police and then turned back at us. Annabeth finally found my license and gave it to Thalia.

"Here you go!" Thalia said giving him my license.

"This doesn't look like you..." He said.

"Oh let me see." Thalia said grabbing the license, then 'accidently' knocking off his glasses. I heard glass brake. "Oh no! I'm so sorry. But look at

the bright side, I fixed my license."

He took back the license and took a second glance. "Alright your good. Just make sure you are driving the speed limit."

"Yes Sir!" Thalia said. He walked away and Thalia gave a breath of relief.

"That was close." Piper said.

"Eh, I've been through more stressful moments." Annabeth said, playing with my hair again.

"We all know that Annie." Thalia said, earning a glare from Annabeth.

-Line Break-

I was half asleep, listening to Annabeth's, Piper's, and Thalia's conversation.

"Yeah, he said he had been having dreams about Kronos." Annabeth stated.

"So what do we do?" Piper asked.

"I'll tell you what we do, we trick him into telling us about them." That was clearly Thalia.

"We can get him high on sugar again." Piper said. Thalia was agreeing.

"Okay no! I will talk to him alone, then tell you guys later." Annabeth cut in.

"Fine." Piper and Thalia agreed at the same time.

It was silent from then on out, until I felt like I had to barf again. Sickness is back.

Annabeth immediately sensed the change, then felt my forehead. She swore in Greek.

"What is it Annie?" Thalia asked. Annabeth didn't even bother glaring back at her.

"Percy's burning up again." She said surprisingly calm. Me, still asleep, wasn't even considering what she was saying, I was to focused on not

barfing all over the car.

"Stop the car." Piper said to Thalia.

I felt a jolt, knowing we were stopped. I couldn't hold it in anymore. My eye's shot open and in seconds I was out on the side of the road, already

out of the car, barfing my guts out.

I heard the car doors open and close. I got onto my hand's and knee's still hacking. Soon I felt a hand on my back, rubbing circles. I was coughing

harder now.

"Oh gosh..." I heard someone gasp behind me, most likely Piper.

After another minute or so, I finally stopped. I opened my eye's looking at my barf, there was blood too.

I felt someone pulling me up and putting my arm around their shoulders. "Come on Perce, lets get you back to the car." Annabeth soothed.

My other arm was soon around another persons shoulder. I looked over and surprisingly it was Thalia. My head slumped forward, exhausted.

With them helping me to the car (more like dragging) I got into the back seat again, my head was on Annabeth's lap again.

All the girls were talking again, probably about me, I was really slowing them down. I soon felt something cold in my mouth. It suddenly beeped

and it got pulled out. I heard Annabeth swear in Greek. I started listening to there conversation.

"His illness is getting worse, his ttempiture is 105.2 degrees. Thalia, go to the nearest fast food place." Annabeth stated

"Why?" Asked Thalia.

"Because, we haven't eaten in a while" Annabeth paused. "and I've got to IM Will."

Huh, it must be worse then I thought. I looked up at my girlfriend. She was looking worriedly at me, but with a soft smile. I smiled back and closed

my eye's, before I knew it I was asleep.

-It is done!

So Percy is sick again? Kronos does have something to do with it, well ever sense the beginning he did. But he was the one who got Percy sick in

the first place...

Anyways I will post again, but I'm going on vacation so I will like on Sunday, sorry.

Aright, I'm like obsessed with Psych right now! I started the first season on Friday, now I'm almost done with the second one...I love it!

Okay, getting carried away. So review and have a great week!

Until next time, bye!
