Sorry guys that I didn't get Madison's mother in the last chapter. I got a little carried away with that chapter and wrote a to long of a chapter, so I have to cut off a chunk of it….but her mother is in this one….enjoy!

I looked out the window and saw that I was in New York. I noted to myself that I lived fifteen minutes away, right outside of New York.

Annabeth helped me out of the car, and Percy came over to me and acted as if he was about to pick me up.

"What are you doing?" I said taking one step(hop)back.

"There's a bunch of stairs," He said.

I opened my mouth to argue, but he beet me to it.

"You pasted out, you've lost quiet a bit of blood, I think you're ankles broken, and you've thrown up, I don't think you need to be walking, or well in your case hopping." He slightly smiled.

"Ha, ha, ha very funny," I said looking at him.

That seemed to make him smile more, and I had to say he was super attractive.

Stop! I told myself.

He picked me up gently, and carried me up the stairs with Annabeth in front of us, and Grover behind us.

I noticed that he was on a pair of crutches.

He saw me looking, and I looked away quickly.

"Don't be afraid of looking, I'm not self conscious of my crutches. Actually between you and me, I don't even need them," He said smiling.

I gave him a questioningly look, and I felt Percy's chest(very strong feeling)shaking as if he was laughing.

When I looked at his face he was.

"You'll see why very soon," Percy said.

We came through another door and into an apartment.

Percy laid me down on the couch. I tried sitting up, but he shook his head.

"Mom, is it ready?" Percy called out.

A woman came through a door that I assumed lead to the kitchen. She had curly medium brown hair, blue eyes, and was kind of tan.

She smiled sweetly at me.

"Hi, I'm Sally Jackson, but you can call me Sally," She said.

"Hello," I said quietly.

"Mom, she threw up on the way here, is it done?" Percy asked looking at his mother.

She nodded and went back through the door and came back a second later with a mug of something.

She said down next to me and put the mug to my lips.

"What is this?" I asked before taking a drink.

"Its going to make you feel better," She said not answering my question.

I took a sip, and it tasted like water, but there was something else to it, but I couldn't place my finger on the taste.

I felt it go down my throat and to my belly. It did indeed make me feel better.

"Thanks I feel, much better, now can I go home?" I said sitting up.

Sally gently pushed me back down into the sofa.

"No dear, this didn't heal your ankle," She said carefully.

I nodded sadly.

"Can I take a look at it?" She asked.

I nodded again and she moved down by my leg.

She lifted the pant leg and cringed when she saw it.

"Just by the looks of it, I would say its broken. Can you move it at all?" She asked.

"No, when I try it hurts really badly."

She nodded and disappeared behind the door again.

She was gone for a few minutes, but when she came back she had a bowel of water with two rags in it, and something else that I couldn't tell what it was.

"Annabeth can you get that piece of glass out of her arm, please?" Sally asked Annabeth.

She nodded and sat down on the ground next to me.

"Your lucky that jump didn't kill you," She whispered.

"I know," I said simply.

"I'm going to pull this out in a second, ok?" She asked.

I nodded.

"Why did you jump anyways?"

"Well two strangers come up to you, who tells you your biggest secret, then follows you as your running away from them, when one of them has a sword that came out of a pen, wouldn't you?" I asked.

"Put it that way, I guess," She pulled the glass out of my arm, and I yelped. "I would have jumped. Sorry I would have told you I was about to pull it out, but it would have hurt more."

I nodded.

Annabeth cleaned up the blood on my arm, then looked at Sally.

"Sally? I think she's going to need a few stitches on her arm," She said.

I looked down at Sally. She had been getting something ready for my ankle.

She got up and looked at my arm.

"I'll put in a couple stitches before I work on your ankle," She said looking at me.

I sighed, and my cell phone rang.

I fished it out of my right front pocket of my jeans.

I cringed at the caller ID.

It was my mother.

I answered the phone, but before I could even say 'hello' she stared talking…or make that yelling.

"MADISON GREER, YOU WERE TO BE HOME TEN MINUTES AGO!"

She yelled so loudly I had to pull the cell away from my ear.

"WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU?!"

She was so loud that everybody in the room could hear and they also cringed.

"I'm over at a friends house, sorry that I forgot to tell you," I half-lied quietly

"YOU DON'T HAVE ANY FRIENDS!"

I said nothing.

"IS THAT 'FRIENDS' PARENTS HOME? CAN I TALK TO ONE OF THEM?"

Sally held her hand out for my phone, and I gave it to her.

She got up and went into the kitchen before putting it to her ear.

"Is you mom always like that?" Annabeth asked quietly.

I nodded.

She leaned in really close, and whispered in my ear, "Does she hit you?"

I nodded again, and felt tears fill my eyes, but I didn't let them fall.

She sighed and got up, and went to the kitchen.

Percy then grabbed the other wash cloth, and came over to clean something.

He ended up cleaning my scratch on my cheek. While he cleaned it, I couldn't help, but stare into his eyes.

"What did Annabeth ask you?" He asked nicely.

I turned my head, and looked at the couch, but he continued to clean my face.

"Nothing," I lied even though I knew, he knew I was lying.

He didn't push, which I liked.

Sally came back out and handed me back my cell. I was relived to see that the call was ended, and I didn't need to speak with my mom again, but I did notice that the screen had cracked.

"Damn it, I cracked my screen," I said.

"Please watch your language," Sally said.

"Sorry," I said looking at her.

"I told your mom that your going on vacation with us," Sally said.

I saw something in her eyes. Pain? Worry? Sadness?

"Why?" I asked.

"Because, you wont be going home for a while," She got to work, getting ready to stitch me up.

"There's something you have to see first, and you need to hear a little story before you can even think about leaving," She said.

I hope you enjoyed this chapter. You have seen a little piece of what Maddie's life is like, and you'll see more of how her life is like in some later chapters. Not sure how much later, but I'll be later.

Just to let you all no, I will not be ending this anytime soon. I'm hoping I can make it pretty long for you guys.

So, please review. I want to know what you guys think of my story so far. I want to hear any questions, comments, and concerns!
