Way back when with little Magnus and Annabeth...


"What's Olympus?" Magnus asked. 

Annabeth got a book from the shelf in her room, then quickly returned under the sheets with her cousin, "It's where the gods live. I read about them from daddy books."

"Ooooh," He paused, thinking about it, "I don't believe in gods"

She giggled, "That's okay. You don't have to."

"Yay!"

At about midnight a swirling portal with a blue glow opened up under them sucking the two little chidren in.

"Ahhhhhh!" Magnus yelled tearing up, "Mommy!"

Annabeth held her little cousin in an attempt of comfort, "It's okay Mag." They closed their eyes as they headed toward what seemed to be a never ending tunnel until they both heard a resounding THUD of their bottoms hitting something hard.

Annabeth opened her eyes to get a good look on where she and her cousin were. From the looks of things they were in  a city alleyway. The city smelled of car exhaust, rain, and garbage. In short the air stunk horribly. They seemed to have landed on some asphalt, but didn't seem to be hurt in the slightest bit. 

The sound of little Maggie's terrifying snapped Annabeth out thought, "I want my mommy." He sniffled, "I'm scared Annie." 

"It'll be ok Maggie." She hugged him close as she could to calm him down, but she noticed slight footsteps coming towards them. Gradually becoming louder and louder.
