Andromeda
"Sorry, I'm Nico." A sad smile flickered across his face then was replaced by a look of grim seriousness.
"We need to get to camp."
"What camp? Where? I need to tell my father!"
"Sorry," Annabeth growled. "No time."
I stomped my foot. "You can't tell me what to do!"
"Yeah, I can! I'm you're teacher, idiot!" She said with an evil smile.
"Sorry to say, she's right! We need to leave! Now," Nathan- I mean Nico said, grabbing my arm. I tried to pull away, but he was surprisingly strong. I still struggled, but he just wouldn't let me go. Finally, I gave up and he dragged me outside. A boy of about Annabeth's age stood in the cobbled street, jumping from foot to foot. then his eyes fell on us.
"Finally," he sighed. "Who's this?" He said to Nico.
"I can talk myself, thank you very much!" I snarled. "The name's Andromeda, but you can call me Andy."
"Kay, Andromeda." I noticed with a jolt that he had a strange accent.
"Are you American?" I asked.
"Duh!" he said and we started walking. Multiple times I complained that my feet were tired. I decided to drag my feet on the ground, which ,surprisingly, slowed them down considerably.
I felt the boy heft me onto his shoulder like a sack of potatoes. Pretty soon, I fell asleep. I dreampt of a creepy guy in a chefs hat chasing me around, saying something like," Come here little girl, so I can put you in my stew!"
Suddenly, I was jolted awake by what felt like airplane turbulence. I sat bolt upright and saw only blue. Oh gods, I thought. I'm either dead or floating.
Then I saw what I was in. A giant canoe. With wings. I shrieked. I felt someone wrap a blanket around my shoulders. It was the boy. "Hi," he said, his eyes sparkling. "I made this beauty! You like her?"
I shook my head and his face fell. "I'm just afraid of heights. The workmanship is amazing; how it's able to stay upright and all."
He smiled. "Want something to eat?" he asked. I nodded and he rummaged through a pack at his feet. He pulled out a bag of what looked like white chocolate fudge squares. He pulled one out and put it in my hand. I took a cautious nibble.
It was delicious! It tasted like an assortmant of chocolates I'd had one time for Christmas. "What's it taste like?" Leo asked.
"Chocolate," I said with a smile. I noticed the scratches on my legs had disapeared.
"It's ambrosia!" Leo said, handing me another square. "That's all you should have, it could burn you up, literally." I popped it in my mouth, then laid back. The bottom of the boat wasn't very comfortable. Leo saw, then shouted," Pillows, Annabeth!"
"Gettem yourself!" came the reply.
Leo muttered a curse, but he got up and disapeared from my view and came back with two pillow pets: a unicorn and a bee. He told me to sit up and he laid down the pillow pets. I fell back with a mumbled thank you and drifted off to sleep.
