CHAPTER THREE: THEY'RE MISSING
Disclaimer; I do not own PJO, Louisa, Tobias, Max, Alvie, Sage, Elsie, Alokia, or Charlie. RR owns PJO, and ArtemisApollo97 owns everyone else that I just mentioned. I'm borrowing them for a contest.
Author's Note; Okay, I lied about the whole thing being in Chryssie's POV. Every once in a while, we'll check in on mystery dude, Alexander, and the captured families. I also have a poll up. It's until the end of this story. Who is your favorite Poseidon triplet? a. Louisa. b. I like all of them the same. c. Chryssie. d. Percy.
I wake up and find the other side of the bed vacant. I sit up in alarm. Demigods don't just leave eachother in the middle of the night. "Sean!" I call out. I walk over to Christian's crib, and find that empty too. I start to hyperventilate, and walk to the twin's room. Neither Abbey, nor Pearl are in their beds. I run to Denise's room and start to panic. Then dash to Laura's room, hoping for a sign of her, them, anyone, but all I see is a red stain on her bed.
I run downstairs and wake Louisa, who's room is missing Leo. "Lou! Sean and the kids are gone! I'm worried." I yell.
"Where's Leo?"
"I don't know that either."
We hop up, and I go to Charlie's room. He's gone. Lou goes to Elsie's and I go to Alokia's. "Gone, gone, gone!" I yell.
I slide down the banister to Percy's floor. "Percy! Leo, Sean, and all eight kids are missing!" He hops up and we each run to a different room. I run to Sage's room. "SAGE!" Lou runs to Tobias and Max's room. "Squirt? Drool Machine?" Percy comes back from Alvie's.
"Gone. Everyone's gone." He says. I scream in pain. I just run outside and to the Big House.
They follow me, Percy with silent tears running down his face, Lou looking like she'll throttle everyone who keeps information from us. I get there and bang my fists on the door. "CHIRON! CHIRON! CHIRON! CHIRON!" He opens the door as I bang my fists the hardest and scream, "CCCHHHIIIRRROOONNN!"
"Pray, what is it children? Percy, Chryssie, Louisa, come inside."
Percy just keeps saying 'gone,' over and over again. "They took 'em. They took 'em all." Lou mumbles.
"They took whom, child?"
"Our families. Sean, Leo, Annabeth, the kids." I say, trying not to believe it.
"We wanna quest." Lou whispers.
Percy's 'gone's start getting louder. I smack him, but not as hard as usual. Chiron goes to get Rachel and I walk to the Nemesis cabin to confirm a hunch. Yup. I knew it. I report back to the others. "He did it. What are the odds of our families disappearing the very night we pull a prank on a child of the goddess of revenge. He's missing, anyways.
"When I find him, I'ma kill him. Ya can help too, 'n' I'll run him through with my sword while-"
Rachel and Chiron walk into the room. 'Later', I mouth to her. We all stare at Rachel. "What? I don't control-oh here we go."
Four shall travel round the world, to save loved ones
They need to work fast, or be reduced to none
You will have to sneak inside
Or else it is doubtful that anyone will survive
"Who will be the fourth?" Chiron asks.
"Let's bring Bella. Her magic will help us on our quest." I suggest.
I go back to my room to pack and find a note under my pillow. It says:
Dear Chryssie and co.,
I hated that prank. You humiliated me in front of everyone at camp and physically caused me pain. That itching powder, those earrings, clips, and heels! The makeup is still on my face and so are the pictures of you eating hotdogs. Your first clue to where to go is located at The Franklin Institute in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Act quickly, or you will never see your family again. Including Jessica, Sally, and Paul.
From, Alexander Vengaza.
I don't care what Lou says. I'll kill him. I run off to find the others.
"Guys! Look at this note." When Louisa is done reading it she screams and rips it in half.
"I wonder how this is going to turn out." I say.
"Why not just ask the author, Idizzle22?" Percy asks.
Lou smacks him upside the head. "Don't break the Fourth Wall, Percy. Nobody appreciates it. Especially the Fourth Wall repairmen."
A couple minutes later, the four of us are in a van, off to save our family.
I know, dramatic. Review, please!
