Chapter 3 stupid bloody knee.

I stumbled over a tree root, and pain shot up through my knee. But I could still hear their footsteps behind us. I got up and contiued runing. Every second step, pain would shoot up through my knee. Then fade a bit till I steped on it again. I clenched my teeth and ran faster to catch up with the other, my fall having cost valuable seconds. I ran up to muscle man, "when are we going to stop?" I ask him.

"when they're no longer chasing us" he replied. That was the end of that coversation. We were runing to fast to waste breath on more words then needed. And on with the run, dodging trees, jummping big tree roots, and ocasioally a log, going north-eastish then north-westish.

"OVER HERE! THEIR OVER HERE!" came a shout through the forest. "ONE OF THEM TRIPED AND LEFT A TRAIL OF BLOOD!" oh no, that was me. The other looked around, confused, wondering who the Titans were talking about. Their was also relief on everyones faces. Oviously think 'theres someone else, we might get away' I couldn't let them find us.

"it's me" I whisper. At first I thought I whispered to quitly for any one to hear, but then Poseidon stoped, Demeter saw him stop, and stoped the others.

"what did you say?" Poseidon asked.

"it's me. My knee." I tell them. They all look at my knee, and there eyes go huge. What? It's just a graze. What;s the big deal? I look down and see the big deal. It wasn't just a graze, it looked like half my leg had been ripped off. \

"Oh, my. That looks aweful." I exclaim, and Demeter and Poseidon crack a smile.

"what'll we do?" Hades asks.

"we wont leave her, if you try to sugest it." Poseidon added, mainly speaking to muscle man.

"i kinda guessed as much. We could continue to run, but they'd catch us soon enough, with a trail. We could stand and fight, with the element of surpraise, we would take a few out before dieing, as you are untrained. Or we could... no, those are our options."

"or we could continue runing split up" I add.

"NO!" Hades, Demeter and Poseidon say as soon as I finish.

"why not? Look, all of our options end in death. In this one, less death. I'm gonna die today. But I will not be taking you with me"

"Hera, you don't know..." Demeter starts to add, but I interupt her.

"yes I do. You go east, i'll continue to go west. And stick together, for my sake, please." they opened their mouths to protest, but muscle man came forward and gave me a hug.

"i'm gonna be sorry to loss you. Your strong." he whispered in my ear, then let Poseidon through. He also hugged me.

"we will stick together. For you. I'll see you on the other side" then it was Hades.

"you always were probally the strogest of us all." by now I was leaking again. I wonder why my eyes keep doing that. It's annoying. I couldn't see. But then Demi was hugging me. She didn't say anything. She didn't need to. We probally were always the closest out of all of us. We were all really close, but their was something else here. I don't know what it is, or why it's there,just that it is there.

"G-good-bye" I turn to leave, but a habd grabs mine. I turn round to tell who ever it is that I have to do this. But when I turn around I see muscle man there.

"here" he said, and hands me a piece of paper. "if all else fails, go swimming" he told me. Them turned and ran off in the opposite direction. My brothers and sisters followed. I turn and start to run again. The pain in my knee was less now. But that was probally because my cheats hurt. First my eyes leak, now suddenly my cheast is sore for no reason. Unless i've been hit, but they still seem pretty far away. I glanc edown anyway, but thankfully, there was no visable wound there. Just pain. My face was now soaked with water from my leaking eyes.

"HERE THEY ARE! I CAN SMELL THEM NOW!" I hear a titan say. Even though I knew I was going to die, I still ran faster. The pain went away. It was just a race between me, them, and time.

AN: short, I know. But hopefully the next one will be longer. Again, please review, and coment on grammar and spelling mistakes. I'm sure I made some (because I always do). Enjoy:)
