Ooh yaaa!!! That last chapter was another cliffy!!!! O.K. so this is chapter 2 in Jake Seaning, a future half-blood, but for now, just sit back and enjoy, no wait I hate that word, and be impressed. Oh, gods, [frown]
"Wh-who are y-you?" Susie stammered. "My, my, did you just say something?" She snarled back in a reptilian voice. "Are you like one of those circus freaks?" "Grrrrr…." A rumbling deep in her throat, almost not human. Oh, crap. I hate my AD/HD. Always wonders of task. Anyway, she was still standing there when I said, "Uh, must be the wrong apartment." "No, she hissed back, Echidna does not get things wrong!" I thought of the only thing that came to mind. "Isn't that an anteater?" "AAAAAARRRRHHHHHGGGGGG!!!" she bellowed, "That's what the last one called me, Percy Jackson!!! "Who's Per-," I stopped in mid-sentence and stared in amazement at her arms. They were green and scaly, like a snakes. Then, my right arm started to feel heavy. I looked down and again stared in amazement, only this time not at her arms, but what was in mine. It was a 3 foot long lightning bolt. It was a super-bright yellow, or gold, and I could feel energy rushing through it into me. I looked over and saw that Susie was now holding a bow, long and silver. Then she yelled at me, "Attack!!" I charged at "Echidna" with full speed and stuck my lightning bolt into her stomach, but nothing happened. I looked at her and she smiled crudely. "It will take much more than that, hero" she said. I did the only thing that came to mind. I tried to "tell" the lightning bolt to shoot lightning at her. It worked. She got zapped straight between the eyes, yelled nooooo!!!, and burst into a powder type stuff. I looked at Susie and all she said was, "Wow."
After that little affair, my lightning bolt had changed into a nice bat. I wondered if this thing had anymore tricks up it's sleeve. After that she had told me about all of the greek gods being real, the children they have are called Demigods, or half-bloods, and the monsters are real too. It was almost to much for me to take. After a while of taking it in and over 5gazillion questions she told me about this camp, where half-bloods stay. Camp half-blood. "Wow, I thought, creative name." Then she told me about how we would have to get there. Oh, did I mention we were in Long Island, the place where camp half-blood was? She said it wouldn't be to long, only about an hour or so to get there by cab. "Is that safe?" I asked. As we were on the streets trying to get a taxi I just thought about my mother. I should at least tell her I'm going to camp. "What about my mom?" I asked. "You can I-m her when you get to camp." "I-m, like instant message?" "I'll explain later, for now lets just get a cab." As we got into one, I had a bad feeling I would never see my apartment again. So we road off, to camp half-blood…
