A camp half blood experience¹

We go to the Arch

Annabeth led us on a path through the city.

"Where exactly are we going again," Percy asks.

"We're going to my mothers temple," Annabeth said.

"Isn't that in Greece?" I ask.

"Not that temple, here," she says as we approach the Arch.

We walked past the fountain as Annabeth gave us math information on the place.

"This place is held by math! Both sides are perfectly aligned," Annabeth said in a proud tone. "And it is waterproof, that means Poseidon can't mess it up, AND no monsters can enter."

We walked into the building.

There was a class on a field trip, which emediatally made me think of my last field trip that I had.

It made me think about Roy and his goons.

I tried to shake off the thought and try to enjoy myself, just a little bit, at least.

In the temple were skulls of animals, paintings of I'd assume Ancient Greece.

I knew Grover wouldn't be too happy about the skulls of the dead animals.

"So, what now?" Percy asks.

"Well, now that our train exploded," Grover says, sounding very anxious and angry, "I can try to find us a new train with the very little money we have left."

Grover walks away to try to find another train or something to help us travel quicker.

"Sorry -" Percy starts, "he doesn't like it when people mess with animals."

"I know," Annabeth says.

'Well, I didn't know that,' I wanted to say, but I didn't because my shoulder started to hurt really bad.

It wasn't just on my shoulder anymore. My whole body hurt.

I tried to hide the pain.

Annabeth and Percy seem to have their own little moment, I have to idea what they are saying because they were a little further away now.

My pain was getting really blinding.

My vision was slowly blurring.

When my vision clears enough to see my surroundings, I go to walk toward Percy and Annabeth.

"Guys," I manage to get those words out before I collapse on the floor, but I don't pass out.

"Y/n, are you okay?" Annabeth asks, worried.

Grover runs over.

"What happened?" He asks.

"I- I think the stinger things were poisonous," I say.

"We gotta heal her somehow ," Percy says.

"I have an idea, follow me," Grover says.

Annabeth and Percy manage to get me up and practically drag me out of the building.

We reached the fountain, which was in front of the building.

We all step in the fountain.

I practically fall down into the water of the fountain, and they emediatally start splashing me with water.

"You are Poseidons' daughter. It should work unless he needs full running water to heal you," Annabeth says whilst still splashing me.

"Alright, I think in fine," I say.

I don't actually feel any better, but I am just too embarrassed. A lot of people I ad walked by and starred at us.

I try to get up but fail.

Suddenly, we hear rukus on the street.

We all look in that direction.

There is a car getting flipped over, and on the field is the one and only Echidna walking toward us.

Grover starts splashing me again.

"We have to get inside," Percy says.

"She needs to be healed to run," Grover says.

"We don't have time, And she is coming." Annabeth says, she was right Echidna was still making her way toward us.

Percy and Annabeth pick me up again, and yet again, practically have to drag me.

I am limping a lot now.

We make our way to the Elavator.

I know only like 2 people are allowed inside, but yes, we broke the rule. Nobody caught us.

As the doors shut, we can see a shadow of a huge monster, and we see Echidna inside the building.

"Was that?" Grover said.

"Echidna, and a Chimera, I think so," I say.

"Wait, but didn't you say no monsters were allowed," Percy asks Annabeth.

Annabeth seems to be deep in thought.

"Annabeth?" Percy asks.

"Echidna said something to be out there," Annabeth admitted.

"What did she say?" I ask.

"She said my impertinence ruined my mothers pride, and that will be my doom."

"What?" Percy says.

"I embarrassed my mother," Annabeth says.

"B- but you're not the one who sent the box, I did," Percy says.

"And I went along with it!" Annabeth says, "it embarrassed her, now she's angry."

The Elavator stopped.

We reached the top of the Arch.

I was really lazy with this chapter, I was too lazy to write the rest of this chapter, so there will be a part 2 of this chapter. And yes, I'm publishing this early. I'm trying to publish every 3 days.
