Ch. 3

Annabeth's P.O.V.

We all run over to help Danny.

"Hey,uh, so, Annabeth...who's Danny?" Katniss asks me.

"He's a demigod, son of Hephastus, a friend." I explain.

"Oh. Ok."

"Danny!" Percy shouts. Danny turns around in astonishment. Right away he notices the careers, he goes into action, and we do too.

When Mac sees me she studders, he tries to hind behind the other careers. Wimp.

"Hey Mac, what's up?" I ask him. No answer, "why are you hiding behind your 'friends'? Are you a wimp or something? C'mon, I'm a girl. I couldn't possibly be near as good as you. Now get over here and fight like a man!" I say. Normally, I would never! And I repear never! Say that I'm a girl, girls aren't as good as boys, but it seemed to perk him up. He came out from hiding and took out his spear, looking as furious as hilarious can get.

We fight.

It's me against Mac. Percy against Darika. Katniss against Bethany-whoa. Hold it. Bethany is like, 13. And she's good...-ok, anyway, and Danny against Bryce.

He pretends to thrown me off gaurd by faking throwing his spear. Doesn't do anything to me, I saw it coming.

"You know Mac, I'm the daughter of Athena. Do you know what that means?" I say.

"That just because you're a demigod, doesn't mean I can't kill you and cook you up for dinner." he says, rude.

"No, Athena is the goddess of wisdom, battle strategies. And I'm her daughter...do you know now?" I say, he's getting distracted. Perfect.

"Shut up and let me kill you!" he says. Dang it. He's getting back on track. I fake throw my dagger, do some awesome ninja turn, kick him a few times, throw a couple of punches, dodge some of his attempts, and finally, grab his spear, and put him in a headlock. I have his spear to his stomach, my dagger to his throat.

"Any last words?" I say. He struggles to get out, "I didn't think so." I stab my dagger to his throat, and hear two loud screams. There. Mac is dead. One down, 3 more careers to go.

I realized one scream was Mac, the other... I turn around and see Darika charging at me with all her might. She looks very mad. Boo hoo, things happen that we don't like girly. Deal with it.

She reaches me and I kick her in the gut. Darika stumbles on her back, but gets right back up, she has a dagger also. We fight head to head for a while, I glance over at Katniss to see how she is doing. She is not very good at straight up fighting I think, just distance, because right now, she isn't doing so good. And I'm not the only one who notices it.

"Katniss!" Peeta comes and shouts, running down to help her. I've got Darika down on the ground, holding her with my foot. Bethany, the 13 year old, glances over at him, and is ready to attack. I just can't get over her being 13 and being soooo good.

"Peeta-I can handle it." Katniss says, but he ignores her. I would to if I were Peeta, she's struggling and is on the verge of being stabbed be Bethany. Lovely thoughts, aren't they?

Bethany turns around, which was a big mistake. Katniss notices it also, and she takes the chance. She gets her bow ready, and that's when everything goes wrong. Darika pushes my leg off her and attacks me, Bethany takes a slice at Peeta's arm and he falls down. She turns around and takes a jab at Katniss to, and gets her in the hand. I'm just about to get loose of Darika attacking me to help Peeta and Katniss, but she jabs at me with her dagger, and it hits me in the stomach.

Then everything went black.

Duh! Duh! Duh! :P
