Hey people, chapter 12, like I said!
CHAPTER 12
Percy's POV
"W-what do you mean?" she stammered, blushing. I could feel my face
heating up as well.
"You know, how she said I saw the face of my true love?" She nodded, still
blushing profusely. "Well I saw you, drowning in the water." She looked like she
was about to say something when we heard Thalia, we both jumped and ran up
to the deck.
"What is it?" asked Annabeth, but a few seconds later, we realized what it was.
we had reached the island.
Annabeth's POV
Percy, Thalia and I got into the raft to go ashore. Percy used his water powers to
propel us to land. I couldn't stop thinking about what he said in the cabin, and
I got a warm feeling inside that I couldn't explain.
When we landed the first thing we noticed was the temple/tomb thing in the
middle of the island. "what's that?" Thalia wondered aloud. "It looks like some
sort of... Shrine."Percy said thoughtfully. "Let's check it out." I concluded.
We split up and looked around the outside. It was a moss covered stone
structure with a big door on the front and a giant sculpted bull's head on top.
I looked around the door for some sort of opening mechanism. I spotted a patch
of rust, and realized, rust doesn't grow on stone. I slid my hand over and revealed
a sort of a button, but i couldn't press it.
The others notice my finding. "Doorbell?" Percy suggested. "It won't press." I
stated, but Thalia stepped forward and said smugly, "Watch and learn." she
pressed her pointer finger to it and a spark of electricity arced into the button.
A loud crashing sound followed, and the door slowly creeped open. "Ladies first,"
Percy said, and we headed down the stairs, into the darkness...
