Chapter 7: Horrible Nightmares
We are back in the woods again. Luckily this time we managed to snatch some food. Oh my gosh! My legs hurt so much. If I take one more step I feel like I'm going to fall. Grover notices how tired I am.
"Annabeth we are all exhausted! I think we should call it a night!" Grover shouts. Annabeth turns around and nods her head. I fall to the ground totally exhausted.
"So who should be on watch first?" Annabeth asks. Really Annabeth? Why do you always talking about being on watch? Grover voluntarily raises his hand. Percy starts to protest but Grover calms him down. Great now I can relax and go to sleep. I close my eyes and find myself in a different place. Everything around me is dark. Next to me is a hole. A hole so deep that I think it never ends. Immediately I know what this place is. It's the Underworld. Suddenly everything around me changes. Now I'm in a room. Hades is sitting in a chair and talking to Percy.
"Give me what I desire in exchange for your mother" Hades commands. Everything around me fades and I jolt awake. I peer up at the sky. It's morning. I look next to me and find that Annabeth is already awake.
"Morning" Annabeth grumbles. Well somebody is in a bad mood. Suddenly I hear Grover laughing. Grover is holding a pink poodle in his arms. Aww, the poodle is so cute.
"Hey Grace say hi to sparky" Grover says.
"Hi Sparky" I say in a sweet voice. Percy walks over to Grover and I and just stares at the poodle.
"Come on Percy, say hi to the poodle" Grover gently says. Percy shakes his head.
"Come on Percy, do it for me" Annabeth says. This gets Percy's attention.
"Ok fine. Hi Sparky" he grumbles. The poodle growls and barks at Percy. Annabeth and I start laughing. Percy glares at me. What it's funny. Anyway why isn't he glaring at Annabeth, she's laughing too? I think he has a crush on her. I wonder how this relationship is going to turn out.
