And here is chapter 9. What's that sound?
Chapter (. 9
Percy pov
As we walked towards our favorite ice cream shop, I heard a noise coming from the alley. It made a rusty sound. Like crashing two metal pieces together. I wasn't scared; I heard worse sounds, much worse. I was just curious.
"Hey Annabeth, what's that sound?" I asked her. She naturally curious said.
"Let's find out." Taking my hand and running into the alley.
The smell was awful. It smelt like something died in here but worse. It was a combination of throw-up, and rotten food.
"Do you hear that?" Annabeth said.
"What is it?"
"Meow." The animal said softly.
"It's a cat." Annabeth said gingerly.
"Let's take it." I said. I started to pick it up when Annabeth stopped me.
"No don't. It's scared of us. And it might have a disease. First we have to give it food, it's probably starving. That's how we urn it's trust. Then we take it to the vet to get it checked. It might have a deadly illness and we need to medicate it correctly." she said confidently.
"Fine we will do that. But what will we feed it?"
"Run to a grocery store and buy one of those small canned meals."
"Got it."
"Good. You hurry up will I make sure the cat doesn't run away."
"Sounds like a plan worthy of Athena." I said before turning around and walking to the shop-n-go.
3 minutes later
"Here I got one." I said handing it to Annabeth.
"Now we gently slide it to the kitten and wait."
"Why don't we leave a trail heading towards us?"
"Because it might feel frightened when it suddenly realizes that it's standing so close to us."
"Fine."
"I have a better idea. We slide half of it and let it smell the rest that's in my hand. It will eat the rest and then we can pick it up and take it to the vet."
"Ok but I'm holding it."
"Fine." she said.
She slowly moved the can of cat food towards the scared cat. It first looked at us, then the food and back at us. It then slowly walked to the food. Annabeth was smiling when it started eating. I was just happy that we both just saved a cat from hunger.
"Hey look it's licking it paw." I said.
"Aw! How cute." Annabeth said.
"Look now it's sniffing."
"It's looking for the rest of its meal." Annabeth said rolling her eyes. "But it's cute when it does that."
"Ok give me the rest of the cat food so I could carry it." I said.
"Fine, but I get to carry it half of the way to the vet." she replied.
"Then I get to say I found it." I stated.
"You did find it Percy." she said palm-slapping her face.
"Let's just go to the vet." I said embarrassed.
"Ok." she said laughing. I swiftly moved my hand towards the cat. It looked at me then started eating.
"Ok, now slowly pick it up and lets go."
"Let it at least finish." I replied.
"We have to hurry up, just carry it."
"Ok it's done we can go now."
"Great do you know where the closest vet is?"
"I am guess we should ask a hospital."
"Ok theres one a few blocks from here, lets go."
As we walked to the hospital we laughed and watching the cat with great curiosity.
This is part 1 of the finale. There will be four parts each posted on Sunday. Also I have a question, what do you think of a sequel? I'm thinking of writing a sequel in later, what you guys think.
