~2. Wait, you guys are what?
Percy
I stood pacing the chariot. Me and Annabeth were called to go save some demigod in San Francisco. My mom's exact words before I had left for camp this summer, 'don't get yourself killed.' And I'd been trying to do just that.
Blackjack who was at the front pulling the chariot pulled me out of my thoughts. 'Heyya boss, after this rescue mission can we stop somewhere for some donuts?'
"Maybe later, Blackjack", I replied.
Gods, that horse would probably devour the donuts at every monster donut place within a mile of him- no scratch that- in the world if he were allowed.
We landed on the grass and stepped out. There in front of us were three kids. Two girls and a boy. The boy pulled out a sword from his bag. The girl in the middle reached down as if trying to pull out a sword or weapon that wasn't there.
"Who are you and what do you want?" The boy asked. Way to get to the point.
"I'm Percy and this is my girlfriend Annabeth. We need to get you out of here."
~~~
"Wait, what?" The girl with brown hair, (who for some reason, had metal hands. I wondered where she'd gotten those from), stepped forward. "We are not going anywhere with you until you tell us why your here."
Something behind us yelled rooooooaaar. "That's why", I muttered under my breath. "The minotaur found us. We need to get out of here. I'll explain on the way."
We climbed onto the chariot. The three kids just stared at us.
Then one of the girls, the one with the metal arms, stepped forward. "I'm Lena, this is Chase and Rory", she said, trying to break the silence, obviously. No one said anything.
Then, trying for a friendly smile, Annabeth said, "so... your probably wondering who we are."
"Oh, please, do tell", the boy grumbled.
"So this is probably gonna sound crazy to you", I said, "but we're demigods."
"Wait, what?" the girl, Rory said.
"Yeah it probably sounds crazy to you but it's true, the Greek gods all of those myths, they're real."
"Actually, it's not that crazy. we've seen weirder."
"Soo you believe us?"
"Well, a few years ago, I wouldn't have believed that fairytales were real, so I guess we do." Wow, it was never that easy to convince someone.
"Wait", Annabeth said, "fairytales?"
"It's a... long story. maybe later." Chase cut in. "Anyway, what does whatever you said have to do with us?"
"Well", I put in. "One of you is a demigod." I said, pointing to Lena.
