It was a strange sensation. Leaving the Lotus Casino. It felt like he was leaving a safe space. He didn't like it, but his mind cleared and reminded him of the quest.
After finding out they had been in the Lotus Hotel for five days. It was a bit jarring, and Annabeth was the first to snap out of it.
Annabeth had them all loaded into a back of a taxi, even though they had no money. She told the driver, "Los Angeles, please."
The driver looked at them, sizing them up as he chewed his cigar."That's three hundred miles. For that, you gotta pay up front."
"You accept casino debit cards?" Annabeth asked.
He shrugged. "Some of 'em. Same as credit cards. I gotta swipe 'em through first."
Annabeth handed him her green LotusCash card. He looked at it skeptically.
"Swipe it," Annabeth invited.
He did. His meter machine started rattling. The lights flashed. Finally an infinity symbol came up next to the dollar sign.
The cigar fell out of the driver's mouth. He looked back at them, his eyes wide. "Where to in Los Angeles...uh, Your Highness?"
"The Santa Monica Pier." Annabeth told him, sitting up a little straighter. She liked being called 'Your highness.' "Get us there fast, and you can keep the change."
The cab did get them there fast. He put his foot on the gas and the speedometer never dipped below ninety-five the whole way through the Mojave Desert.
On the road, they had plenty of time to talk. Percy told them about his latest dream. But the details were vague and incomplete.
Percy had told the group about his dream. He was called little hero, like Sammy was called little bee. But whoever was speaking to Percy knew he was there. Saying 'Hail, the conquering hero!'
There was a third person in Percy's dream. The voice's servant, calling him by a title Percy couldn't name.
"The Silent One?" Annabeth suggested. "The Rich One? Both of those are nicknames for Hades."
"Maybe..." Percy said, but he didn't sound so sure.
"The servant is another thin' in itself. The Furies are Hades's torturers and servants. You've killed Mrs. Dodds once. And we killed her sisters." Sammy said.
