Sam's POV

I ran inside the storeroom. I had seen dummies being used for the fight and later for training but I didn't expect them to be in such a vast number.

With the piece of iron I had in my hand I ran through the dark room. I hid behind the wardrobe, waiting for my eyes to adjust to the pitch black surroundings. I had planned to put rather throw the iron piece into the Chimera's mouth. The iron would melt in her hot breathe suffocating the beast.

I sneaked a peak at the deadly beast I saw her confused by the dummies and she was blindly blasting each one of the dummies. I turned back taking a deep breathe. I went through my plan.

Now or never!

I looked at the beast. She had her back towards me I had to catch her attention.

"Hey!"I shouted. Realizing my fault I held my mouth

"IDIOT. ******" I cursed loudly. "Oops!" I said out loud again. I saw the Chimera turn to face me and breathe fire at me. Then I cursed again but this time it was in my head. And I did the first thing that came into my mind

Run!

And I ran. But i wasn't fast enough. Her breathe burned my right leg. I cried in pain but ran to take cover.

What was taking so much time? PERCY!?

Because of my foolishness I lost a good chance over the Chimera. Try again and again and again until your last breath. I looked back at the Chimera, she was fooled by the dummies. Their numbers dwindling, If I didn't act right now I would loose my chance over her. I stood up. The Chimera noticed my move. I stood still as the dummy. Hoping she wouldn't suspect. I wasn't able to stand on my right leg. The Chimera now walked in my direction. I had to see eye to eye. It was frightening. As soon as she was close enough/ within my throw-range I threw the iron piece at her.

The time slowed down. The iron piece went into her nostril. The Chimera was about to breathe fire at me. Clanking was heard on the opposite side of the room. I lost it and fell back on the ground with the exorbitant pain in my right leg.

Distracting everyone. Chimera blew fire at me but then turned to face the sound completely burning whatever was stood there.

"Percy!" I shouted but it wasn't louder than a whisper. Everything turned black.

General POV

Killing the Sphinx was hard and it took majority of Percy's precious time. All he could think of was Sam! How was she holding on! He tried hard to not to think about the negative thoughts that were pestering his mind. When Percy was able to kill the Sphinx he ran into the dark store room. As he busted through the doors. The Chimera burnt the wall a few feet away. Although Percy ducked in time but he could feel the heat. Percy stood up to see the Chimera choke. He tried to slash the Chimera but the heat was still unbearable. After the struggle the Chimera burst into golden dust.

It was hard for him to see and importantly search for Sam in the dark room. After a roaming around the dark room walking over the false body parts of the dummies he stumbled across Sam. She lay on the ground unconscious. Percy picked her up in bridal style and walked out of Bleu Royal.

"In here!" Called out someone. Percy looked at the source to see Katana motion ingredients him to follow her into a the nearest building.

Percy with the bags went into the building. Katana examined Sam's wound.

"Third degree burn. You need medical help." She concluded. Percy nodded.

"Water?" Asked Percy.

Katana offered him water and called 911.

"I can't stay here. When they come." Said Katana. Percy nodded his head in appreciation. Katana left leaving Percy and Sam alone.

The paramedics arrived they took the both of them to the hospital and admitted Sam.

"What is your relation with the patient?" Questioned the receptionist.

"Ummm. Sister." Replied Percy with the first thing that popped up in his head. Percy sat down on the bench. And was slowly drifting of to sleep when. The doctor came out of the emergency ward.

"She is fine now. She's asleep. The wound will take time to heal. We will release her after a two-three hours observation." Percy nodded. Percy went back to the reception to pay the bill.

"The bill is paid sir." Replied the cashier.

"By whom?" questioned Percy.

"A lady she left this envelope for you." Percy accepted the envelope and open it. Cursing his dyslexia he asked the receptionist to read it for him.

I paid the bill for you and this is the money that was you earned in the bet. In it Percy found five hundred dollar bills.

-x-K-x-

Percy thanked the receptionist. Percy later went to meet Sam. he unlocked the door and heard a loud thud from the other side of the door he rushed in. He saw Sam on the floor.

"Oh! its just you!" she sighed in relief.

"Let me help you." offered Percy and tried to help her but she refused.

"You will also leave me like the rest of them did. It's better I get used to this by myself." Percy was taken aback never had anyone talked to him like she did. Percy watched as she got back up on the bed.

"Thank you." said Percy breaking the awkward silence.

"For what?" she asked.

"You could have just left me there and saved your life." replied Percy.

"Thanks to you too for bringing me here. WAIT A SECOND WHAT ABOUT THE BILL?" asked Sam with her eyes wide open.

"Cleared. Katana paid for it." replied Percy

"Here." Percy gave her the envelope with the cash. Sam stared at Percy with her mouth hung open."Do you even know me?" she asked him this was followed by another round of awkward silence. " Thanks Percy, This is a lot." she replied again.

"What did you think you could handle the Chimera and the Sphinx together are you mad? and what took you so long?" she demanded Percy. Both of them shared their part of day's experience. The situation felt so familiar Percy felt his eyes moisten as he thought about the times when Annabeth shouted on him.

"So what comes next?" asked Sam bringing him back to the reality.

"I don't know you tell me." replied Percy. Through the window both of them saw the sun dip down below the horizon.
