Chapter 12

Chapter 12

Disclaimer: I do not own any familiar characters except for Derek, Rob, and Julie and I have decided to stop naming chapters because it's starting to take longer and longer for me to find the right one, and it always gives away what's going to happen in the chapter.

Percy's POV

I was walking towards the beach for an early swim, when Annabeth jogged up to me.

"Chiron wants us to go and get Derek, Rob, and Julie. He says that they're somewhere off of the coast of Maine."

"How does he expect us to get to them?" I asked with concern.

"He said that we'll figure it out."

"Well….Until then…do you.. umm.. Wanna walk around camp with me?" I said with a slight grin on my face.

"Sure." She said wearing nearly the same grin as I was.

We walked along over to the stables, since I figured maybe we could take a ride.

Then it hit me.

"Annabeth, I know how we're going to get Derek, Rob, and Julie." I said with excitement in my voice.

"Yeah, then how?"

I whispered it into her ear.

"You seriously think that'll work?"

She pondered for a moment and said, "Yeah, it will."

We continued walking.

Derek's POV

The door open and in came none other than Kronos himself.

We were all spread across, acting like we had done nothing than sit in our room for the past few days.

We all looked up and saw him looking at us, for me luckily I had recently showered.

"There has been an IM transmission detected here." He swiveled his head around and said," Search the room for any traces of water, NOW!!"

Then about 10 half-bloods and monsters entered and began searching the room, leaving nothing unturned and every corner checked.

Once they reached the bathroom, they found what they were looking for, which would have been easier to find if they had an IQ over 2, which luckily for us, they didn't.

They found what they were looking for, which was water, and the spray bottle.

"What were you using this for?" an extremely large monster asked us.

"To clean the mirrors after I had taken a shower," I replied.

"Huh. Maybe it was the tenants upstairs…" he said, then they all turned and left.

Percy's POV

We were nearing the Princess Andromeda when Annabeth said that we needed to hide.

Derek's POV

We were finally allowed out of our rooms as apology for the "Invasion" of our rooms.

We were stretching out on the top deck sometime after the sun had set, and were gazing out at the stars.

Being so far north, we were actually able to see more constellations like Orion,

(AN: I've actually looked for that lately and can barely find it!) and Ursa Major and Minor.

I peered off into the distance and swore that I saw something flying. I sat up and looked at where I had seen the object just a moment before.

Percy's POV

We looked on to the Princess Andromeda and saw three people stretched out on top of the deck with a few lights lit up behind them.

We lowered our altitude and neared the boat, making sure to stay near the water.

Derek's POV

I continued to look on when Julie asked, "What are you staring at?"

"I swear that I saw something flying…."

"It was probably just your imagination."

"I swear that…sigh never mind, I'm probably just hallucinating or something."

I laid back down and tried to sleep.

Percy's POVLand down there.

Gotcha' boss!

And STOP calling me boss!

OK boss!

sigh "Some things are just never gonna change." I muttered.

We landed on the ship, in the shadow of main cabin/ Captain's deck.

I climbed off of Blackjack and slowly walked toward the light, pulling out Riptide and uncapping it, but hiding the glow of the blade.

I cautiously stepped toward the corner, and gazed out seeing who it was on deck. To my luck it was just who I needed.

I went back and got Annabeth who was still sitting on her horse.

I grabbed her hand and slowly walked into the light.

We went up to Julie first, and I tapped her shoulder, hoping not to startle her.

"Huh? What the-" I quickly cupped my hand over her mouth so that nobody else who know of our presence, though I did have the strange feeling that we were being watched.

Annabeth went over to shut off the lights, while I got Derek and Rob up.

"Come on, follow us." I whispered
