Percy POV.
My life sucks. I was constantly being pulled into messed I never made and being forced to clean them up. Why do I feel this way? Well, here's why.
Not only were these Halfbloods constantly moving, they were moving fast. Grover would loose and gain connection whith them as we moved. It was more then frusturating.
"Are you even sure this is the place?" I ask Grover.
He looks at me, then to the big gray building.
"I'm sure. I can feel it."
"Grover, not that I doubt you satyr senses or anything, but this place looks like a parking garage with windows," Nico says.
Suddenly, a large shape comes out of the set of double doors. It was not human. I could tell by the way it walked. Not to mention it was 7 or 8 feet tall.
I also had the sinking suspicion that it had seen us because it was stalking towards us.
Max POV.
The place had the same old smell. The School alwas smelled like lemon scented cleaner and an ofice building.
It made me sick to my stomach.
I chose not to struggle. The fight would be pointless anyway. We were surrounded.
they lead us through a maze of familiar hallways and doors untl we had finaly arrived. The cages were sill the same; stacked on top of each other and packed so close together just looking at them made it hard to breathe.
"Don't worry, you are safe. We will take care of you," said a white coat, in a flat voice.
They quickly ahove us into the cages.
"Have fun piggies," Ari grins as he closes the double doors.
Annabeth POV.
I'll give the wolf man this, he was very tough. His unability to quit was almost admirable, but ours was better. He was dead in about 5 minutes.
We sneak up towards the building. And let me tell you, that thing went from parking garage to mental hospital real quick.
" I'll get you in, but after that I won't be much help," Nico said. I could tell by the far-off look he gave he would probably pass out as soon as we got in.
poof*
Yeah, that place was worse on the inside than on the ouside for sure. Nico leans against the wall.
"I'll stay with him." Grover says.
"But we need you to be there, you know, to identify the half-bloods were after," Percy whispered.
The longer we standed in this hallway the more uneasy I felt.
Suddenly, as if on que, we hear deep laughing voices from down the hall. We had to move. Grover quietly wraps an arm around Nico's shoulder and starts to guide him to opposate end of the hall.
But we were to slow.
