The rise of the falcon (ON HOLD)

We're going where?! (XV)

"So where are we going again?" I asked, it seemed like Jason and Percy had a telepathic connection and automatically knew everything the other did.

"The prophecy says; 'the land with no odds'" Percy put the prophecy line in air quotes.

"Do you have any idea where that is?" I asked skeptically.

"Not one" he mumbled.

"What is an 'odd' anyway?" I asked "How can land differ?"

"Size." Grover chimed in."It could mean the ground is even, even means there are no odds..." 

"Right.." Percy said 

"What's the flattest place?" Jason piped up.

"There are lots of flat places on earth...I'm gonna say desert.."Percy replied

"Which one?" I asked

"One of them" Percy replied

"Does anyone have Google?" I asked

"Ya, but if we use it monsters will find us!" Jason explained.

"We're flying" I said blatantly

"Flying monsters" Grover said.

Suddenly Percy's eyes lit up.

"I have a solution," he marched proudly to the cupboard and got a water bottle, then onto the deck. We followed him curiously. By the time we got onto the deck we could see Percy was saying something and tossed a drachma overboard. I could see a shimmering image appear in the air, it was Annabeth. Annabeth waved and smiled the proceeded to ask questions.

"What do you want, seaweed brain?"

"What is the fattest place on earth?" Percy asked.

"Why in Hades would you want to know that?" She looked shocked at the question.

"Trust me, it's relevant." He replied.

"I believe it's The Salar de Uyuni, it's a salt flat in Bolivia, in South America. Why?"

"Prophecy!" He explained "it says a land with out odds!" 

"Nice thinking seaweed brain."

"It was actually Grover who came up with the idea." 

"Tell Grover I say hi." 

"I will." 

Percy waved his hand over her image and it shimmered then vanished. Percy made his way toward us and we acted like we weren't eavesdropping. Apparently we were decent actors because Percy didn't even seem a tad bit suspicious at why we were just hanging around the door to the deck. 

"Guys, guess where we're going?" He beamed, he obviously didn't know we heard.

"Where?" Jason  Grover and I said simultaneously.

"To a big slab of salt in South America!" Percy said a little too  enthusiastically.

(Hi guys... I know I said this chapter would be longer and I'm sorry!  I've had so many projects and my teachers are not easy! I have had major writers block, though, I knew what was gonna happen in this chapter, I'm not sure about the next one though...I feel like when I get to a reasonable book size I will like make a sequel or something...? I'm not sure so comment on whether or not that's a good idea. In the end you'll be surprised, some of the loose ends will tie up with TOA and some I will leave to your imagination and I might even kill off your favourite character! Who knows? Me...duh...oh and don't hate me for breaking up #Cleo but I have plans, don't you worry.)

Ps. I'm really sorry for the short chapter and the long breaks between them but I have a life too! (*cries* what life?)
