p style="text-align: center;""Everyone inside!" Couch Hedge's voice blared through the wind. "Off the skywalk!" /p
p style="text-align: center;""What's going on! I thought this was stable!" I yelled to Leo. He shrugged. Hi words were whipped away, but I read his lips. emLets get out of here!/em I agreed completely./p
p style="text-align: center;"I could see Piper, Tanner, and Dylan holding the doors for everyone, shoving them through. How they were even holding onto their ground surprised me. Trying to get there was like running through quicksand. I could tell Leo, Jason, and Couch Hedge were having the same problem, even though it wasn't effecting any of the other people pushing through the doors./p
p style="text-align: center;"As I got to them, the doors slammed closed. Jason and Dylan walked over to us./p
p style="text-align: center;""Guys- help!" Piper yelled. She was frantically trying to get them open, and failing./p
p style="text-align: center;""We're done helping, Piper McLean." They said in unison. Dylan flicked his wrist, and she went flying. /p
p style="text-align: center;""No!" Jason yelled. He went to charge after her, but Couch Hedge held him back."Jason, Leo, Alanah, stay behind me." He ordered. "This is my fight. Should've known these were our monsters."/p
p style="text-align: center;""What?" I demanded. A rogue worksheet flapped into my face, and I swatted it away. "What monsters?"/p
p style="text-align: center;"Couch's cap flew off, and sticking up from his hair were two bumps- like the ones cartoon characters get when they're bonked on the head. He lifted his baseball bat- but it wasn't a bat anymore. Somehow it had changed into a weird-looking tree branch club thing, the twigs and leaves still attached./p
p style="text-align: center;"Dylan gave him a psycho smile. "Come on, Couch, let the boy attack me! After all, you're getting too old for this. Isn't that why they retired you to this stupid school anyway? I've been on your team all season, and you haven't even noticed! You're loosing your nose, Grandpa!"/p
p style="text-align: center;"Couch made an angry sound like an animal bleating. "That's it, cupcake. You're going down."/p
p style="text-align: center;""You think you can protect three half-bloods at once, old man?" Tanner teased. "Idxlike to see you try."/p
p style="text-align: center;"He pointed a finger at Leo, and a funnel cloud materialized around the Latino. Leo flew off the skywalk like he'd been tossed. Somehow he'd managed to twist in mid air, and slammed sideways on the Canyon wall. He skidded down, clawing furiously for a handhold. Finally he grabbed a thin ledge about fifty feet below the skywalk and hung there by his fingertips. /p
p style="text-align: center;""Help!" He yelled. "Rope? Bungee cord? Something?" /p
p style="text-align: center;"Couch Hedge cursed and tossed Jason his club. They had a conversation I couldn't hear over the wind, and then Hedge took off his shoes. I'd expected to see feet, but that wasn't it. They were emhooves./em Like, goat hooves. Donkey hooves. Animal hooves. Definitely not what was supposed to be there./p
p style="text-align: center;"I took in a sharp breath. I opened my mouth to say something, but I was hit by a gust of wind and blacked out./p
p style="text-align: center;"/p
p style="text-align: center;"I sat up with a start. "Hooves!" I yelled./p
p style="text-align: center;"Then I realised I wasn't in Nevada anymore. I was laying on a floor of some sort, and a bunch of teenagers were looking at me. It was a tight space./p
p style="text-align: center;""Alanah! Good to see you're back from the dead." Leo joked. I barely heard him though. I got up. Standing there with me were Jason, Pier, Leo, and two kids I didn't know. We were in a sort of box thing./p
p style="text-align: center;""Are those- oh, I must be dreaming. Flying horses. Either that or I've finally gone mad." I murmured. I looked over the edge and saw we were about five hundred feet off the ground. I'd never been afraid of heights, but I didn't know if I could trust the horses to keep us in the air. Since, of course, I was probably just hallucinating that they were there./p
p style="text-align: center;"Leo laughed. "I thought the same thing. Maybe we've all gone crazy. You emdid /emget hit in the head with air as I do recall. And I fell off the Canyon. And watched Jason turn into Superman. Oh, let's not forget about the part when Dylan and Tanner turned into tornadoes and Jason killed them. One more thing- we're apparently godly." /p
p style="text-align: center;""Ummmm..." I was sure I was dreaming. Or Leo and I were completely insane. Probably the second one though./p
p style="text-align: center;""Might sound crazy, Grey, but it's true. Demigods. Half-bloods. At least, that's what they said." Piper told me, pointing at the other two kids on the- whatever this was./p
p style="text-align: center;"The girl was staring at me skeptically, whilethe boy was driving the horsey flying thingies. I'd seen that look before on teachers- wondering whether they could turn their back n me or not. It was always funny when they wrongly thought it would be fine. I put my hand out./p
p style="text-align: center;""Alanah Grey. Call me Ala. Or Ana. Or Grey. Call me whatever, as long as it doesn't have a split meaning to it. I look things up, you know." The girl took my hand and shook it. /p
p style="text-align: center;""I'm Annabeth. The guy driving the chariot is Butch. I'm a daughter of Athena. He's a son of Iris. You know, Greek gods?" /p
p style="text-align: center;"I tried to stifle a laugh. "Iris is the goddess of rainbows, correct?" I said. Butch groaned./p
p style="text-align: center;""Shut up." He snapped./p
p style="text-align: center;""No, no. Rainbows are cool." Then I mumbled, "rainbow dudes flying on winged horses."/p
p style="text-align: center;"The dude turned his head around, and I put on an innocent face. Butch gave me the stink eye. Leo laughed./p
p style="text-align: center;""Already went through that." He whispered to me./p
p style="text-align: center;""So, okay. Since now all of y'all can see the wings on the horses, I know Leo and I aren't the only crazy ones. What happened back there?" I asked no particular person./p
p style="text-align: center;""Long story short, the football players- Dylan and Tanner? They were monsters. They tried to kill us. Jason slayed, and now their gone. But Couch Hedge is too." Piper said. Jason got a little red when she explained what he did. I whistled./p
p style="text-align: center;""Dang, Grace. Where'd you learn to do that? More importantly, where can emI /emlearn to kill evil jocks?" /p
p style="text-align: center;""Um, I dont-" /p
p style="text-align: center;""Right. Amnesia. Sorry, forgot. Ha, that's funny. Forgot about the amnesiac."/p
p style="text-align: center;"Annabeth stared at me weirdly. I smiled at her. /p
p style="text-align: center;""Never let her meet the Stools." Butch said. "That's probably take over the world." /p
p style="text-align: center;"I was about to tell them I planned to do that with Leo, but a flash of lightning and the smell of ozone interrupted me./p
p style="text-align: center;""Left wheel's on fire!" Jason yelled./p
p style="text-align: center;"I was freaked. The were storm clouds all around us- sometimes morphing into gray winged stallions or people with wings./p
p style="text-align: center;""Why are they-" Piper started./p
p style="text-align: center;""Anemoi come in different shapes." Annabeth said. "Sometimes human, sometimes horse, depending on how chaotic they are. Hold on, this is gonna get rough."/p
p style="text-align: center;"Butch flicked the reigns. The Pegasus bolted into full speed, and the chariot blurred. My vision blackened. When it returned to normal, we were in a totally different place. Gods, I need to stop getting knocked out./p
