Back To Wonderland

Chapter 6: Dakota

"Help!" Raven screams from off of the beast running down the road. I look over to Cre, he was kicking anything the was near him "Cre, we will save her" Cre looked at me with glassy eyes, what is wrong with him, he never acts like this unless.. No he couldn't "It was my fault" I look at Cre with a face that said Really. "No it wasn't Cre, it was nobody's fault" I pat him on the back "Now let's get going" I notice that Cre is fixing his position of his sword, again, he always does that when he is nervous. 'Why would he be nervous about saving Raven' I think 'Maybe he..' I shake that mind out of my head. "So where are we going" Cre asks, his voice cracks "I don't really know, I guess just follow the path of the giant footprints in the sand" I say looking ahead to see how far the footprints went, I see the beast running up a hill, gods that beast was fast. "Come on, let's go" I start to run. I look behind me to see that Cre wasn't following "Cre! Come on!" I yell at him. Cre looks up and starts to run towards me, I turn around and start to run as well.

We came to a stop when we couldn't see the footprints anymore "Where could that beast of gone?" I ask Cre "I don't know, maybe we didn't come fast enough and the footprints vanished" he shrugs his shoulders "There was no beast that came by here children of the gods and goddess" Cre and I turn around to see a middle age women with a teenage girl by her side. I look over at Cre, his jaw was dropped "Cresent Moon, close your jaw at this time" I snap at him, he closes his jaw. This girl had dirty bond hair, midnight blue eyes, with a flower crown, a California tan, fake eyelashes (w mascara), purple lipstick, white Hollister crop top, ripped white/blue short-shorts (can see her belly-button), grey sperry top-sider shoes, and magenta nail polish (French manicured). I could see why Cre's jaw would drop. I look back over at him. His jaw dropped again "Cresent!" I snap at him again. He closes his jaw. The young girl walks up to us "Hi, I'm Shantal Snow, daughter of Apollo, and I'm fifteen,who are you guys?" she asks in the most perfect voice, almost to perfect. "Cresent Moon, son of Athena, and I'm seventeen" Cre says, obviously in love, I roll my eyes "Dakota Hart, daughter of Bellona, and I'm seventeen" Shantal looks at me then back at Cre "Roman and Greek I see, well why did you come this way?" She ask looking at me "We came to find a demigod, she's been taken away by a guy named Shiv Connty" I look at her with a stern expression "Shiv Connty, doesn't ring a bell, but can I help search for her?" Shantal asks giving us the puppy eyes "Yes!" Cre says next to me, gods he is in love again. "Yippee!" Shantal starts to jump up and down while clapping her hands "This is going to be so much fun!"
