Sarah
"Don't worry, this won't hurt a bit."
Sarah, Daphne, and Logan had just escaped Pittsburgh and were right now hiding out in a cave in Cuyahoga Valley. Logan was right now trying to pull the bullet lodged in Sarah's leg out.
It hurt.
If Sarah hadn't been biting on her shirt collar she would have given their position away.
The bullet came out easily, but the wound wasn't pretty. Fresh blood poured out of it now that the blockage was out. Daphne poured some nectar on it, and after eating some ambrosia Sarah's leg felt way better.
"I'm gonna see if I can find the hunters." Logan said. "You two should get some rest."
Logan left the cave leaving Sarah and Daphne alone. Daphne started out on an awkward note. "Why did you kiss Logan? Do you like him or something?"
Sarah blushed so red her face could've stopped traffic. "I don't know. The kiss was sort of a heat of the moment thing. I mean, I thought I was going to die, he had his arms around me, and, well…" Awkward silence. "By the way, thanks for the save."
"No problem." Daphne replied casually, pulling an arrow out of her quiver. "Polyurethane foam arrow. It can cushion a fall from up to 15 stories."
Then Sarah had a thought. "Why do you want to know if I like Logan? Do you like him?"
Daphne's face blushed a dark shade of green. Green? Sarah thought, Must be a child of Demeter thing.
"No I don't like him!" Daphne exclaimed He's totally immature and, quite frankly, a little stupid." They both had a good laugh at that. Daphne continued. "Hey, you should probably get some sleep. You've barely rested at all this entire quest."
Sarah didn't want to sleep, she might have the dream again. And that wouldn't be good for anyone. But her eyes felt so heavy she just couldn't resist the sweet lull of sleep.
She should've told Daphne to run first.
Sorry for taking so long to post this. Advanced classes coupled with writers block is never good for writers. I promise I won't take this long again.
