I don't really have anything to say, so here we go!
I DO NOT OWN PERCY JACKSON
Chapter four: Phase Two
RAINS POV
I took my time climbing the stairs to our room. The elevator was broken. But even if it wasn't, Jeramy would make me take the stairs. I got to our landing and made my way to our room, feeling sick. I opened the door with my key and stepped inside. All the lights were on and so was the tv. I could hear it from the doorway. There was no loud music or obnoxious voices so that's good. He's not having a party.
"I'm home!" I call out into the seemingly empty house. No one answered. Jeramy must be at the bar or something. I took a deep breath and let it out. I have some time before he gets home, and hopefully, when he gets here he will just pass out on the couch until tomorrow.
I go to my room, put my stuff down and got my phone out.
NO NEW MESSAGES.
I sighed. I didn't know exactly what I was expecting, but it wasn't that. I got up from my bed and walked back downstairs, putting the phone on its charger.
My stomach growled. I haven't eaten in three days. But I've been long without food. I looked longingly at the fridge before shaking my head and walking back upstairs. I'm not allowed to eat from the fridge. And Jeramy never feeds me. I only eat at school, but I was so upset about the texts that I didn't eat anything today. and now I'm feeling the pain of it.
I got to my room and closed the door, walking to my bed and nearly collapsing from exhaustion. I looked at the clock, seeing it read 3:58. I yawned tiredly. maybe it'll take a little nap, it was most likely that I won't get much sleep tonight.
I closed my eyes, never wanting to open them again.
drip. drip. drip. I looked up at the dark gray sky, rain started falling, thunder rolled in the distance. The gods were angry. They want the girl in a safe place. fast. I quickened my pace. Those dracnae at her school were tough to kill. It was a risk using the phone to contact her but it was necessary. I just hoped she would take me seriously and call if she needed help. I slowed and ducked into the alley by her apartment building. Phase two of my plan was already in progress.. time to get the girl.
