Chapter 36

Paige's P.O.V.

I woke up to a sharp unbearable pain in my side.

The events of what happened came rushing back to me in a flood which made me cry out in pain.

"Connor?" I gasped. I opened my eyes and looked around.

We seemed to be in the middle of a thick woods. The trees were tall and dark, unlike the thick leafy trees at Camp Half-Blood.

Connor was passed out a few feet away from me. He didn't seem to be seriously injured. Just a lot of cuts and scrapes.

"Connor? " I asked again.

My voice sounded raspy and broken.
I tried to drag myself over to him but every move sent waves of pain coursing through my body.

I cried out in pain and immediately Connor was up and at my side.

"What do I do? " He asked.

"I don't know I'm not a bloody medic!" I groaned.

"Okay, I'll iris message an Apollo camper. " Connor said, rummaging through his pockets for a dracma.

"Wait! " I gasped, grabbing his wrist. " You have to promise me something first. "

"Yes. What is it? "

"Swear it. swear on the river styx. " I said looking him directly in the eye.

He hesitated for a few moments before saying. "I swear." The sky rumbled, locking his oath into place.

"You can't let Derek know about this. "

"What? " Connor asked, shocked.

"Whatever you do. You can't let him know I got injured. "

"But what if-" Connor trailed off.
He didn't need to finnish that sentence for me to know what he was going to say.

"Tell him it was quick. That I didn't feel any pain. "

Connor looked at me with a heartbroken expression. He turned and pulled the prism and small torch out of his pocket to make a rainbow.

He threw a dracma into the rainbow, and said.

"Oh iris, goddess of the rainbow. Accept my offering. Show me Will Solace at Camp Half-Blood. "

The rainbow rippled and grew untill we could see Will Solace at the infirmary at camp. "Connor! Oh my gods what happened? Travis came back and everyone's gone crazy. Most of the campers have gone out to fight those monsters you found! " Will exclaimed.

"Will. Its an emergency. We need your help. " Connor spoke quickly.

Will seemed to notice me lying on the forest floor. Apparently I looked pretty bad, because Will's eyes sunk and he let out a gasp.

I managed to tug on Connor's Sleeve.
"Ma - make him promise " I rasped.

"Will, you have to swear on the river styx that you wont tell Derek. " Connor demanded.

"What? Thats crazy. He's my brother!" Will shouted.

"Please. I can't do this without you. " Connor begged.

"Fine." Will huffed. "I swear. " a rumble of thunder sounded through the iris message.

"Okay. You need to pull the blade out." Will said.

"What?" Connor asked. " Won't she bleed to death?"

"No. The wound is just above her hip, I don't think it punctured anything."

"You don't think?!" Connor shouted.

"Just do it. " I said sternly.

Connor shot me a pained expression before moving over to my side and put both of his hands on the top of the blade, causing me to flinch, sending another wave of pain.

"Okay. You have to keep it straight as you pull it out. If you tilt it slightly, it might puncture one of her organs. "

Will said through the iris message.

" Oh, how reassuring! " I snapped.

" Ready? " Connor asked, looking me straight in the eye.

" Ready. " I replied.

Connor pulled up on the blade. I was immediately hit with a tidal wave of agony. It felt like somebody had stuck their hand into my body and was slowly pulling out my insides.

Somebody was screaming. But I think it was me.

Suddenly it was all over. The pain was gone and I sank back as the darkness consumed me.
