          "What was that all about?" Dawn asked. With no logical answer to share, I just shrugged my shoulders and turned towards the window.

"Hey do-" I tried to say before my face collided with the cheap leather they use in the bus seats.  

        "Oooooowwwwww!!!!" Dawn whined. I stood to look over the seats and someone rushed into me, knocking me into the aisle.

          "Hey, yea could you get off of me?" I wheezed from under the heavy pressure of the body on top of me.

        Instead of an "I'm so sorry" or "Watch where you're going!" I heard the raspy shrieks of a bird like caw.

        "You must die! You demigod scum!" Is what I heard as I felt talons Pierce my arms.

        I still hadn't open my eyes since the fall, to afraid to see who- what was on top of me. My body was shaking, heart was pounding, and head throbbing.

        I can't die like this! Not on a bus, not by some deranged murderer thing.

        I decided that I would have to fight back at some point, dying was not on my to-do list. When I opened my eyes, I saw something that made me want to crawl into a hole and hide.

        On top of me was a creature with gnarled fangs, long talons, leathery wings and torso that reminded me of a cheap motorcycling jacket.

        Struggling with all my might, I tried prying the demon's claws out of my arms. Though, to no avail. She squeezed and dug harder.

        I let out a blood-curdling cry and I heard a distant voice calling my name.

        "NAHLA!" The voice belonged to Grover.

        "NAHLA don't worry I'm coming!" He made his way over to me, practically hopping over each bus seat.

        He ambushed the demon- monster- thing and was able to knock her off me. Taking this chance I ran over to Grover ready to thank him and practically sell my soul to him. Whatever actually made sense in this world now.

     Just as I reached him, Grover pulled out a bronze dagger. Taking a slow step back I whispered, "Y-You're going to try to kill me too? What did I do to tick everybody off?!"

        He shook his head, a small smile tugging at his lips.

        "Take this," He said, "Kill her! Hurry she's getting up!"    

        I grabbed the dagger, almost incapable of holding it in my trembling hands. The handle felt uncomfortable in my palm, it felt too small.

        I turned to see the thing starting to get up and bare her needle-like fangs. Not listening to my thoughts, I let my instincts take over.

        It ran towards me at an unnatural speed and with one swift flick of the wrist, I was holding the head of the monster in my hands.

        "N-nice work." Grover gulped, "Wouldn't want to see you when you've got training."

        Despite my current situation, I let out a small chuckle.

        Grover and I were the only ones left on the bus, as we made ourselves to the front I saw that the engine of the bus had been thrown out and many other parts were thrown ascue all over the roads.

        Walking off the bus made way to quite a scene.

        Someone is gonna get killed before the day is up...
