Survival in Gaea's Army

Chapter 8: The Rescue

Sam POV

Being a demigod you never lead a normal life but creating an earthquake and bringing down a whole warehouse that was a first.

The weird thing was that when I woke up I wasn't even the warehouse anymore. I became suspicious right away. I checked my surrounding. I seemed to be in a forest an I was propped up against a tree.

There was a fire right in front of me and across from me sat Percy who was also against a tree. My dagger lay at my feet and Percy's sword laid at his.

Percy was still unconscious and I was worried because what if he wasn't unconscious. What if he is...

I stood up or tried to anyway. When I tried to my while body erupted in pain. "Ouch ohhh eevvverything hunts!" I said as I slumped back against the tree.

Telepathically it is. Percy

Ugh uhh

Percy wake up

His eyes started to flutter open. When they did they instantly became alert. "Where are we?" He asked the slightest bit of panic in his voice.

"I have know idea. What's the last thing you remember?"

"I remember ole dirt face screaming and me putting up a water barrier as the warehouse fell and I guess we fell unconscious."

"That seems about right." I sighed. "Are you as sore as I am."

He tried to move but instantly sat back down. "Yep. I'm not surprised last time I made that big of an earthquake I couldn't move for a week." I heard a shuffle of leaves behind me, but Percy didn't seem to notice.

Did you hear that?!

What the sound of my awesomeness. He smiled smugly.

I'm serious! I heard leaves shuffle behind me.

Wow leaves shuffling in a forest what's next? The sky will turn pink?
He said sarcastically.

Could you be any more annoying?!

Oh I could but you probably won't like it.

We were being watched I could feel the eyes on my back. "You can come out now!" I yelled into the open air. When nothing happened Percy gave me the I-told-you-so look.

That's when a hooded figure stepped out from behind a tree. I probably would've started to laugh my socks off at Percy's priceless expression if there wasn't a creeper a few steps away from me.

The figure started to advance. I grabbed my dagger and Percy grabbed his sword. We pointed our weapons at the stranger and he/she stopped.

That's when the figure moved its hands up to reveal the face Percy and I were never expecting.
