[Percy's POV:]
I oddly like the cold, perhaps it's a son of Poseidon thing or something since last I checked the sea tends to be cold.
We had just arrived at Alaska, the place we had been gunning for the last week almost. On the way here we had learned lots about each other, for example, medusa actually does have a snake tail, it's just an 'intimate' part of her that she only lets out for lovers and comfortable sleeping. Other than that she is simply in her human legged form. It was the result of a game I never thought would happen, being a demigod and monster duo. Truth or dare.
[Flashback:]
"I'm so dam bored! Why is Alaska forever away!?!" We had left Andrachne's warehouse days ago and yet the road just refused to show any signs of well anything.. Just straight.. Slight turn.. More turn.. Less turn.. It was getting to the point where a hill was exciting.
"I agree with the Mutt-err Damian, this is rather.. Boring" spoke arachnid surprisingly. I guess she has always had something to do whether it's escaping Tartarus or weaving clothing.. Medusa agreed maybe because she missed cooking I don't know.
Reyna pulled over to a rest stop, nothing fancy, just a small parking zone nothing more. "How about we get some fresh air?" Oh Hera yes. I could not get out of the camper fast enough. OXYGEN IS GODLY.
"How I missed actual non-recycled air. It's almost like I can eat it!" Was I exaggerating? No you're exaggerating!
Reyna and Anna grabbed a few sheets for a picnic while I Chauffeur Emily and Fidi while holding the large basket of food Medusa had made.. She smiled in a way that'd melt anyone's hearts. She truly had a passion for cooking. We sat a ways away from the car making sure to be out of sight of the main road in case any passerbys see a wolf talking to humans and them talking back to me.
"These steaks are soo good! Even better than raw!" that's it, medusa is cooking all my future meals.
"Thanks Dami, I'm glad you like them, I made sure to keep em rare and undrained" I feel like a vampire more than an inverted not-werewolf suddenly..
"So shall we play some games or something? This is nice, but I'm itching for some entertainment and no, running at 70+ mph beside the camper doesn't count" Though that was fun.
"How about some good old truth or dare?" suggested Anna, thank you anna.
"What is that?" asked both Medusa and Arachne, understandably so they likely didn't have much opportunity to play games like this.
"Well, I'll ask you a question 'truth or dare' you'll pick one or the other and we'll either ask you a question you can't lie about, or we'll give you a dare to do if you asked for that" I see Reyna hasn't lost the ability to explain.. Maybe she is a legacy of Athena/Minerva..
"Very well I'll play.. But no trap building!" "Why not sounds like fun, just don't go crazy on the 'dares' " spoke Arachne and Medusa respectively.
"Sure we'll keep the dares tame, besides the kids are here can't exactly do anything to scare them or traumatise them" as soon as I said It I knew what was coming..
"Oh? And pray tell what kind of dares would traumatise my daughter hmm?" she had that same smirk she has when she teases me.. The sexy snake gotcha one..
"N-nothing.. Let's just play it already!!" I was not flustered. Not at all. Shutup.
We all sat into a circle, the kids decided to go off and play nearby, so PG was safely on the edge of the table and facing imminent doom. I was next to Medusa, who was next to Anna, Arachne, Reyna and Acanthis Who once again I forgot was with me.. She is really light and sleeps a lot ok!
