Kidnapped
I skipped over to the stables and took out Stormy Skies, my Pegasus. I mounted him. "You ready, Stormy?" I asked him.
Yes ma'am, Stormy replied.
"Please, just call me Jade," I told him. Then, we set off. Into the air. It was a bit windy and foggy, but the cool wind felt amazing on my burning skin.
Jade, there is a storm coming, we should go back to the stables, Stormy said.
"Just a little longer!" I yelled over the wind. We were flying really high. Stormy was right, a storm was here. And we were in the middle. There was lightning ahead.
"Stormy, let's go d-" I was hit. It felt like somebody shoved me into a pit of fire. I fell off Stormy. I fell through the air my arms flailing. I screamed. Not from the pain, but from the fact that I was about to go splat. But when I landed, I hit wood.
"Captain, we've got her," Someone hollered. A hand reached for me. I twisted it. The person howled.
"What's the problem, private?" a voice said.
"Captain, she's a fighter," he said. I stood up, ready for a fight.
"Please, stand down. We don't want to hurt you, but we will if we have to. Tell us your name," The captain said. I shook my head. "Tell us your name, demigod!"
"Eat my dust!" I yelled. I jumped over the side of the ship. I fell in the ocean and swam for shore. Sky and Leo were making out on the beach. I tried to sneak quietly past them.
I ran to Cole's place. I opened the door, not bothering to knock. Cole had just come out of the shower. He was wearing pants, but no shirt.
"Jade!" He yelled. "What are you-"
"Stop being shy and comfort me," I said. Cole looked at me.
"Jade, what's wrong. Are you okay," Cole said. I changed my mind.
"I'll be back later to talk. I really need to punch something." I ran out of the cabin.
"Jade!" Cole yelled and followed me. He caught up and grabbed my wrist. I tried to push him away, but he grabbed my other wrist and pulled me to him. "What happened?"
I sighed. "I made a new enemy. They tried to kidnap me."
Cole's grip on me tightened. It wasn't restraining me, it was protecting me. "We need to tell Chiron."
"No. I have to find Stormy." I said.
Percy ran up. "Jade, are you okay. Stormy said you got hurt!"
I told them everything.
