"Go fish!" I said smugly as Chiron asked me for a nine( what is it with this guy and nines?). I stood up and started to do a victory dance. Then we heard the scream.
" Let us continue the game later, shall we?" Chiron said as I stood up, scattering cards everywhere. Chiron pulled me onto his back and we were off(to see the wizard the wonderful wizard of Oz! I'm sorry I just had to put that!). The nymphs pointed us where to go. "That way," they whispered. I heard another scream, this one louder, more urgent.
I saw a pegasus fly overhead. Annabeth was on its back. It swooped down and was galloping right next to us.
"You idiot!" I yelled. "You left Andromeda unnattended!"
"Katie's watching her!"
Suddenly, Chiron and the pegasus skidded to a stop. We were at a clearing. Both horses pawed the ground nervously. In the middle of the clearing was a weird pulsating light. In the center of that was... Piper. And she was obviously in pain.
Her mouth was open in a silent scream. Once every ten seconds or so she would twitch and kick out.
I tried to call out to her, but the words caught in my throat. Then I saw the monster. It was a giant spider. The light wasn't light... it was a web, a web full of pictures of the gods, but not good things... terrible things. Annabeth whimpered. Arachne. She was alive and she was about to kill Piper.
