I feel the train slowing down; I really hope that we're in New York and not just taking a pit stop. I pack up my backpack and start shifting around some boxes in case someone opens the door they won't see me. If we're really here, then I'm going to wait for the right second to make a break for it.
The train stops, but instead of the door making a sound like it did when it closed, it's making a sound like claws are tearing at it. I see where the door and the wall meet that there is a small hole in the wall that is getting bigger and bigger. That sound is getting louder too.
"Die son of Poseidon!" I hear a high pitch screech and then the door is torn off the train car. I take my pen out of my pocket and click it. Instantly it stretches out into a full length lethal weapon. I run out of the car and put on my backpack on at the same time. My backpack is a little heavier now… for reasons.
When I get out of the car I see that the gorgon released the car I was in from all the others, leaving me behind to deal with this pain in the behind.
"Percy Jackson, you have killed both my sisters! Now you must die!" She says and lunges at me. I look around. No water. Great! How am I supposed to kill her without water?! She swings at me with her long talons, by the looks of it, I think she was trying to take off my head. I take riptide and swing at her shins, she jumps up and lands on my sword. It falls to the ground with a faint clank against the grass.
"No way to defend yourself, what are you going to do son of the sea god?" She spits out at me.
I'm not a fan of thinking so I don't think about what I'm going to do, I just do it. I punch her on the jaw. She stumbles back and off riptide, which I grad before she can step forward and back onto it.
"First you kill my sisters, now you are rude? They really need to teach manner at that camp!"
I'm close to New York, I just know it. I need her out of my way so I can get there, so I did the most reasonable thing you could do in a situation like this. I swing my sword through her stomach while she's blabbering about her dead sisters.
"No!" She screams as she turns to a pile of dust at my feet. The wind picks up the dust and blows it away. Hopefully with her gone for a little, I'll have enough time to get to this place that my gut is telling me to go.
That was short, sorry :/ Please review :)
