Percy Jackson ~ Death Rechained

14

3rd Person

Annabeth woke after a few minutes the ambrosia and nectar were applied.

She touched her forehead and shook her head, "What happened?" She asked.

"You passed out when you got bitten by a Cerates on your leg." Thalia replied.

Percy ran to her in relief and hugged her as if this was the last hug they were ever going to share.

Percy let go after a few minutes, "So... what do we do know?"

"Go back to Hogwarts and hope that the trip will send us to the right place this time." Piper replied.

"The only question, the mode of transportation." Jason remarked.

"We could either shadowtravel again, with a 50% chance in gong to the right place. Or we could just use the pegasus's" Nico suggested, scaring the daylights out of everyone.

"Good option, but wouldn't the pegasus's be tired? We've been riding them day and night, multiple times at that." Annabeth said.

"True." Thalia mused.

"So... what now?" Percy asked.

"I don't know." Annabeth shrugged, "We could try the shadowtraveling again and the apparating."

She paused, "Wait... is it called apparating?" She asked, facing Harry.

"Yup." Harry confirmed.

"Right, and we could also do the vapor traveling thing." Annabeth continued.

"Okay! Let's give it a try." Hazel exclaimed.

Everyone started to hold hands and disappeared into thin air.

~{}~

The group appeared in an area with a large mass of trees.

"Is this the Forbidden Forest?" Hazel asked.

"Seems like it." Harry replied.

"Let's look around."

"The Heroes of Olympus, and the chosen one, how nice it is to see you." A voice hissed.

Percy prepared Riptide, as did the others prepare their weapons.

A figure came in, of a beautiful woman.

Annabeth gasped.

"Y-you're Lamia!" She sneered.

"Why yes, I am." She smirked, circling around the group.

"What's a Lamia?" Percy asked Annabeth, but Lamia heard it.

"I'm glad you asked." She grinned maliciously. "I am the Queen of Libya! At your service!"

Everybody relaxed, except for Annabeth, she remained her posture.

"She's lying! She's a demon! She eats children!" Annabeth hissed.

"Tsk, tsk, dear Annabeth, how could you say that about me? I was a great leader of Libya! I wouldn't eat children, in fact, I love them!" She exclaimed.

Everyone started to tense more, clutching their weapons tightly.

"How do we know you're not lying?" Harry asked.

"She's lying! I've read about her before! How are you even here! Aphrodite turned you into a shark!" Annabeth shouted.

Lamia growled at the name Aphrodite, "That witch ruined my life!" She paused. "And I sense a daughter of hers amidst the area." She smirked.
