My Best Friend teaches me How to Pick Tasty tin

Grover and I sat in the meadow that afternoon and watched the satyrs chase the dryads only to get a mouthful of wood for their work. Since they gave me the day off of my chores, we decided to chase monsters in the woods and hang out in the fields. Grover munched on a few tin cans while I sat there and dreamed of Annabeth.

"You know, Percy," Grover started, mouth full of can pieces. "I should teach you how to choose the best kind of tin to eat." I turned a bit toward him. "What?" He turned towards me. "Yeah. You have the cooper cans, tin cans aluminum cans, oh, and defiantly stay away from the-"

"Percy" A voice said from a distance. It was Selena from the Aphrodite cabin running towards us. She stopped to take a breath. She stood up and whipped her hands on Grover's shirt. "Your… friend is awake and only wants to talk to you." She said, discussed yet still in her lovely voice.

Once we made it to the cabin, everyone was against the wall. No one would take their eyes off of Cece. She had a scared and angered face. Zoë was leaning on a pole in deep contemplation while Thalia was kneeling right next to Cece, who was laying on one of the sick beds. I walked towards the bedside and kneeled right next to Thalia. Right across in a chair was Artemis, who was watching my every move.

Cece looked at me. She looked a little bit healthier. Zoë was holding her nectar. I realized she had been crying and worried sick. I turned and looked at Thalia. She seemed to be praying. "What's up?"

She didn't answer back for awhile. "I think-"

She stopped suddenly. "You probably should ask Cece."

I turned towards Cece. Her blind eyes faced mine and that when she started the story.

I was running in the woods. I couldn't see anything, but the outline and darkness. I felt the presence of the woods. I was seeing (or in this case feeling) through Cece's eyes (or ears or something.) She turned around and started shooting arrows at something in a distance that she couldn't feel, just hear.

"Quick! Into the cove!" Palla said. She grabbed he hand and pulled me into a cove. Not too much later, the noise came back. It knocked me to the side where I hit my head. I heard a sword coming for me and swished to the side.

I felt a burn on my head. I screamed from the pain. I could hear Thalia scream my name. Artemis told her not to tough me. If she did, I would wake up and have to start all over and it can be much more gruesome. After the blow, it was all downhill from there. I felt blows on my head and in my stomach. Once it the fight was over, the force broke her arms and legs. I yelled even louder. Feeling her pain was the worst thing that I could have ever felt. Suddenly, I heard clashing from two swords clashing together. I could hear a grunt from Palla's weakening strength.

"Who are you?" Palla said. "What do you want from me?"

A male voice laughed. "Hello cousin, nice to meet you." His voice was so familiar. It sound strong and healthy, yet rude and evil. "My name is Luke. You and your sister, Cecillia, shall join me and my team to help Kronos, king of the Titians, destroy Western Civilization and the Olympians."

"What? Are you crazy, Brooke?"

"It's Luke!"

"Whatever, Duke. I REFUSE!"

Luke turned and put his sword, Bloodbiter, to Pallas neck. I could feel his presence since he was touching Palla now. He looked is regular attractive self. His hair was dirty blond and his eyes were the color of the sea.

"I'll let you change your mind on our way to Europe. Maybe you'll even choose to be my queen."

She gave a little laugh and cleared her voice and straightened. "I can see that you like that idea," He said. He voice was romantic. It made me want to hurl. "So I'll feel bad for doing this to you. Suddenly, he broke Pallas arms and legs. She screamed and passed out from the pain. Luke carried her in his arms and walked towards Cece.

"I feel bad for hurting my love's sister." He looked sincere about the fact, but still rude and proud. He flipped his long, blond locks and jumped on Cece's breastbone. I screamed with her, the pain almost made me pass out. "But it's my job."

I couldn't see him. He put Palla down for awhile. There was a sudden puncture in my arm, then my other arm, then both my legs, and last, my side. "Since you are her sister, I will let your death take a long, long time."

He picked Palla up and walked away.

I was shaken until I woke up. I shot up and slowly walked away. I stopped when I saw that she was crying. I walked back towards her. "I am so sorry I wasn't there earlier, Cece. I know Luke, I could have helped."

She shook her head. "No, you wouldn't, Percy."

I looked at her. She wouldn't meet my gaze. "What are you talking about, I've fought-"

"Yes I know Percy, I know," She said. She still wouldn't meet my gaze. "I can see your experiences when you were seeing my story and Luke is not the same. He is changing."

There was a moment of silence. Then, she turned to meet my eyes, but she embarrassed me. "Percy," she said. I didn't look at her. "I left a part out." That made me turn to her. She messed with her fingers and looked back at me. "Luke is all powerful and is out for you and is threatening to kill Annabeth if you come after Palla or her."
