Chapter 3: So good so far
My plan was going well so far. Ms. Dodds, deciding that I was a child of Aphrodite, retied he night we got back. We had Mrs. Kerr as a substitute. My grades went down. I did it on purpose. Instead of doing homework, I studied fighting styles. Something I didn't have a luxury of doing last time. I needed to be able to fight without a sword and couldn't depend on my powers all the time.
Like last time I was expelled. Yay. No sarcasm. It fit in perfectly with my plans.
The day we left was almost a carbon copy. Right up to meeting the fates. They looked at me, gave a slight nod and went back to sewing.
Grover panicked. "Always 6th grade. They never get passed 6th grade" he muttered wildly.
I decided not to lead him on anymore. I would give him a half truth. Um... a tenth of a truth actually... maybe less.
"Relax," I sighed "we'll go to Camp half blood soon, then you can get your searchers licence and go looking for Pan, who is under Mexico somewhere."
Grover fainted.
When he came back later Grover sputtered "What?"
"Let's take this slow. Pan is somewhere under New Mexico. The only way to get there is to go through the labyrinth We'll do that after we give Zeus his master bolt. I'll do that alone. Ares has it. Hmm, I'm going to fast. Heres my/our plan. We get me to Camp half blood after I talk to my mom. Then I train for 5 days. I beat the hell out of Ares get the master bolt and helm of darkness. Then, I'll get them to Olympus. Afterwards, we'll go into the labyrinth, find Daedalus, find Pan, get out and live."
I knew it wouldn't be this simple but, most of it would be know that I had it figured out and doing once helped.
