Firstly I would like to thank Sparky199 for helping me fill some holes in the plot and basically helping me add life to Cleo and Katrine and also for being the first person to review. Secondly I've been thinking about the way this story is heading and have realised that the first five or six chapters will just be introductory fluff but I swear on the River Styx hat if you bare with me the story will get better but I can't do anything about it otherwise the plot will not make sense. Finally Ive noticed even though I've had quite a few views but only one reviews and I would like to say it's really not that hard. So please once you've finished this chapter just spend a minute or two just telling me what you think of this chapter and if you have any ideas for the story in future chapters I would love to know. Ok now that's wrapped up here's the chapter.
Disclaimer- As much as i would love to own Percy and Co I don't.
Katrine's POV
"Children, we're back!" Called the voice of the twins mother as an opened top cherry red Ferrari pulled up in front of the path down to the beach front.
The girls watched as the tall strawberry blonde woman stumbled down towards them in ridiculous sequined pink two inch heels and a matching frilly pink pencil dress. Katrine didn't know why she even bothered coming home her rich new husband Joseph (the twin's step-dad) would just wisk her away on another posh holiday again in two days time.
It wasn't that Katrine didn't like her mother but she was very absent minded and didn't understand that she or her sister didn't care for all the designer items she bought them; they just wanted to spend time with her. It was her new husband they didn't like. They refused to call him dad and if the had to talk to him (or about him) they would just call him Joseph. Reasons they didn't like him.. 1 He ignored them at all times. 2 they were sure he did everything in his power to keep their mother away from them. But they kept their mouth shut for their mothers sake.
The two sisters held tightly on to each other as they began to dread the scolding they would get of Joseph for getting their clothes wet.
As they trudged back to the car Katrine stopped, she heard rusting coming from the trees to her right. As she scanned the the surrounding area she saw a pair of glowing green eyes but after a few seconds they were gone. She felt Cleo place her hand on her shoulder.
"Are you ok Kat?" She asked quietly.
Katrine shook her head "I thought I saw something but i must have been seeing things.
Cleo lowered her brows in concern before following after their mother. Katrine waited a few seconds staring at the gap in the trees where she saw the eyes but after seeing nothing she shook her head again and ran to catch up with her sister.
During the next few days Katrine couldn't shake the feeling that she and her sister were being watched. That uneasy feeling lasted until her mother and Joseph left once more on a 'business' trip. Leaving the twins feeling slightly abandoned.
In an attempt to cheer themselves up Katrine and Cleo walked down to their favourite place; long island beach. But something felt wrong. The sky was empty of all life as if someone or something had scared away all the birds.
It wasn't until a huge monster charged out of the trees and down the beach towards Katrine and Cleo that the older twin realised that it was more than a feeling. Before she could react Cleo had grabbed her arm and pulled her o her feet and out of the way. Katrine watched in horror as a blob of illuminous green acid left a crater in the sand where she had been sat.
Ok I really am sorry for this disgrace of a chapter but it was necessary for the next few chapters to make sense. But anyway thanks for reading now al thats left to do is press that little rectangular button at the bottom of the screen and leave a review telling me what you thought of the story and any ideas you would like to share with me or thing you think I could improve on. Im open to all suggestions.
