A/N: Okay thanks for the reviews! This theme is Tower and so I'm writing as if one of them were stuck in a tower, trapped by an eviler force that won't let them out and the other one has to rescue. I bet you can guess these people : )

Have a wonderful day!

17. Tower

I was stuck. I was chained up by the ankles and wrists, making me sit on the floor, all my limbs at a weird angle. My hands hung up and my feet were beneath me. It was hard to sleep in this position. My ankles and wrists were rubbed raw and red lines were marking the areas I was chained up. I do not know my captor or where I am or how I got here. The last thing I remember was saying goodnight to Annabeth one night at camp. All that I know is that time stands still and there is no day or night. The stone floor is cold and damp under my knees.

It didn't feel good to be trapped somewhere where I couldn't help myself. I wasn't beaten badly but I had a few scrapes or bruises. But wherever I was, it didn't supply cheeseburgers. I was so hungry and was dying to have something to eat or at least something to sooth my parched mouth. I was ready to get out of here.

I heard a noise from the hallway and I looked up to where it came from. It was probably the guards. They were these creepy dudes that stalked the hallways every hour or so, never showing their face and silent as a mouse.

I heard a few clangs and something shattered. Something was advancing fast and the footsteps were coming closer. I lifted my head and watched, expecting a guard or something.

"Kelp Head, you idiot, getting yourself captured again." That could only be one person. I watched as Thalia walked into view of the cell. Her hair was spiked up as usual and she was wearing the hunter's gear.

"Pinecone face! You don't know how happy I am to see you." I said, and was still on the ground, looking like a helpless lump of limbs.

"Shut up and let's go find your girl." She said. I smiled as she started unlocking the door and my restraints from the key ring she swapped from the guards.

Thalia game me a hand up and I stumbled on my feet as I stood up straight. She caught me before I fell over, rolling her eyes, and we started making our way out of the cell. There was a hallway and a swirling, stone, staircase. We got to the end and I heard the most missed and beautiful voice that made me homesick.

"Thalia. Did you find anything?" Annabeth's voice sounded annoyed and as soon as I came into view, she gasped and dropped her knife. "Percy!" She cried, grey eyes wide with surprise filled with happiness. I almost tripped down the stairs on the way into her arms. I could smell the lemon flavored shampoo in her hair as I buried my face into her golden hair. I almost leaned into her with my full weight but I managed to stand up on my own.

"Percy, are you alright?" She asked.

"I'm actually starving." I said and pulled away to look at her face.

"Let's get you home." She said and I slung an arm over her shoulder, ready to face any monsters that might attack us on our way out.
