Ok guys, as promised, I'm updating before I leave for spring break. I hope you like this chapter! :)

Also, thanks so much for all the reviews! To some people, 28 reviews might not seem like a big deal, but to me they mean the WORLD! :3 Thank you!

Enjoy&Review!

~ {Percy's P.O.V} ~

We waited for Arachne to get more into her work. The spider knitted with such speed, we couldn't make out any of her movement. Her 8 legs moved around faster than we could register.

After we made sure that all her attention was turned to her tapestry, we made the first move.

"Oh, such good work. Too bad it's going to get ruined." – Annabeth said, raising her voice so the monster could hear her.

Arachne stopped what she was doing and glanced at Annabeth. "What do you mean, you little demigod? My tapestries do not get ruined! Never!"

Our plan was working perfectly. We knew that monster was about to crack.

Annabeth continued with her act. "Oh, well, you know, in this cave you live in, the cobweb gets all loose and stuff. It's bad for the work."

Our plan was simple: we were to make Arachne believe that her cobwebs will get ruined. Then, we'll tell her the 'secret' of keeping them safe. And the secret was in Annabeth's pocket. And by secret, we mean dagger.

Of course, if it wasn't for the monster's blindness, this plan would be a complete disaster.

"I don't care! I use the finest cobweb. It can never get ruined! – The spider yelled. – Don't play games with me, child of Athena. "

"Ugh, don't even call me that. I hate Athena. She's so…prideful. That's why I want you to beat her in this craft. And you will; only if you listen to us." – Annabeth sounded so persuasive, even the most rage-full creature would sit down and listen. It's not that she had charm speak or anything. She just had a diplomatic way of looking at things. That has saved our life multiples of times.

Arachne sighed. She dropped her tapestry on the ground and walked over to us, shooting cobwebs everywhere.

"It's good you finally admit that Athena is nothing but a prideful little monster. – The spider said as it sat on the ground next to us. – And if you're willing to help me, I'll listen to you."

Annabeth smiled. "Good. So, in my pocket, I have a needle. It has special powers. When you stab yourself in the hand, the one you use for knitting, it'll make your work so much better."

That was delusional. Arachne couldn't be that stupid…

"Ok! If it'll make my skills better, I'll stab myself. But are you sure it won't hurt me?"

"Positively. It doesn't hurt. I'm sure. But…before you take it, you have to free us first." – Now this was the tricky part.

Arachne seemed to debate on whether or not to believe Annabeth. Eventually, she gave in. "Alright. Hang on. I'll get a knife."

As she left, we all sighed. It looked like we were all holding our breath.

"It worked! How can she be that stupid?" – Dez asked, a goofy smile on his freckled face.

"She isn't stupid. It's just…she's too prideful. She'd do anything to prove herself better than Athena." – Ally said.

At that moment, the monster came back.

"Alright little demigods, I'll free you now." – With one swift movement of her… (claw?)…we were free. Trish stretched, and then smiled.

"It feels good to move."

"Well? Where's my prize?" – The spider asked.

Annabeth smiled sweetly. "Here,"- she said. Then, with one swift movement, her dagger was in her hand. Then another swift movement and the spider's body crumbled to dust.

We had defeated Arachne.

I looked at the loose body in front of us. "Hey, Annabeth!"

"Yeah?"

"You're a genius."

That's that for now! Good? Bad? I hope you liked this. Tell me what you thought of it in the reviews! Thanks, guys! Love you all!

Before I forget, I'd like to remind you all again that I will not be uploading for two weeks or so. I'm sorry. But don't give up on this story. Great chapters are coming! :)

Stay awesome and #LOUD!
