(Okay, here's the fifth chapter. Thanks for the follows and reviews! I appreciate it.)
CHAPTER 5: THE SLEEPYHEAD
(Annabeth's POV)
Malcolm woke me up with his knife. I opened my eyes and screamed at the sight of the knife. "AAAAAH!"
"Seriously?" he said.
"Sorry! I thought you were going to stab me."
"Oh, yeah, right. Well, sorry sis, but you don't have time to eat breakfast... Anyways, what did you dream of? You slept too long."
I dreamt about Percy and Luke, but I don't wanna mention.
"Anyways, it's gonna start in five minutes." Malcolm said.
"What's gonna start in five minutes?" I said, wanting to return to my slumber.
"Capture the Flag." he answered. "It's 11:30 AM, Beth!"
"WHAT?" I said, a little louder than I expected. "WHY DIDN'T YOU WAKE ME UP EARLIER?"
"No time for explanations! Let's go!" he said as he left.
I changed my clothes, wore my armor, and got my cap. I ran to the woods.
"EVERYBODY READY?" Chiron shouted. "THREE, TWO, ONE..." The horn sounded and there was chaos everywhere. I sprinted towards the area of our flag, together with Fille. I wore my cap and climbed up the tree, while Fille positioned herself.
After minutes, Pragus and Gervine appeared.
"Fille! Where's Annabeth?" Gervine asked, panting.
"Up there." she pointed to a tree.
"Where?!" Pragus asked.
"Up here, nerds!" I called out. "Weren't you two supposed to distract Percy?"
"Jackson's gone. He kinda...disappeared." Gervine said.
"Oh, and Darius's down." Pragus said.
"WHAT?"
"True." they chorused.
"Don't just stand there, GET THE FLAG NOW!" I said angrily and they sped into the woods.
After another set of minutes, a person from the opposing team appears. She or he slashes Fille in the leg and she fell down. "Oh no." I whisper. "Fille..."
I drop down as the person almost raises the flag.
"Thought it'd be too easy, eh?" I threatened him or her.
He or she looks around and cackled. "Percy has told me of you, Annabeth Chase." Then he or she puts some goggles or whatever you call it. "I can see you now."
I slash him or her and he or she fell to the ground, rose, ran off but eventually he or she tripped. And then she whistled. I never knew if she was a boy or a girl. I forgot about Fille.
"Fille, are you strong enough to run, and hide?" I asked.
She nodded. I helped her up and she tried to run, but she can't because she has a damaged leg. Poor Fille.
I suddenly heard leaves rustling. Someone was coming. Still invisible, I peered into the woods. Suddenly, someone slashed the air (well, not exactly the air but my cap, but I'm invisible, so you can't see the cap and if you were watching, you'd see nothing but the air) and my cap was removed. I gasped when I saw the person. "Percy, is that...YOU?"
(I'm very sorry for giving short chapters! The next chapter is a little long, and it's one of my faves. Thanks for the reviews and follows, anyway.)
