Man it has been awhile. I am a senior in high school now and my life is ruled by after school activities. To get back into writing stories I wrote this. I got an idea for what I want to do for the previous chapters continuation... just need to find the time to type it.
Annabeth was used to her cousins' random antics. By all means, it was nothing new to her. She has seen Shiloh in just about every situation possible for her. Hanging upside from a tree by a rope tied around her ankle to climbing and getting stuck on top of the rock climbing wall, Shiloh has done just about all of it. However, Annabeth could help the overwhelming anger growing the longer she was on the phone with her cousin.
"So uh...Yea. I'm going to need bail." said Shiloh on the other end of the phone.
Annabeth was silent for a few minutes. Debating on letting her younger cousin suffer or giving the bail she needs. She looked at the picture hanging above her desk. It was Shiloh's high school graduation day picture. Annabeth couldn't have been prouder that day for her, she watched Shiloh grow from the timid five year old runaway till the outgoing freshmen in college. Annabeth knew her cousin was capable of so much more then what she might present.
"What did you do this time?" Annabeth asked, bracing herself for the most ridiculous reason ever. Instead of hearing a ridiculous reason she heard,
"Uh... Well you what had happen was there was a concert and my friend and I went to it. At the concert, some guy was picking a fight with my friend... And I kind of punched him. And now I'm arrested."
Annabeth took a deep breath. That sounded like something Shiloh would do. She was protective of people close to her. Annabeth knew first hand, when she fell off the cliff during the manticore fight a couple years ago, it took at least three hunter a to pin Shiloh down so she wouldn't jump over the cliff to save her.
Sighing Annabeth got up from her desk chair and started towards the front door of hers and Percy's apartment.
"What police station?"
"The one in Chicago."
"You got to kidding me."
Annabeth was used to her cousin antics but sometimes she didn't know why she continues to help her. She tells herself it is because they are family and she loves Shiloh, however loving someone did sometimes involve yelling. And yelling was something Shiloh heard when Annabeth showed at a Chicago police station the next day.
