Liz And The Last Olympian

Chapter One

I look at the horizon. The salt water splashes my ankles. Apollo is next to me.

"What you thinking about?" he asks.

"Nothing," I lie.

"Quit lying," he says.

"Is my prophecy over?" I ask him. He falls silent.

"Tell me the truth," I say.

"No," he replies. I stare into his sky blue eyes.

"What is left?" I ask.

"I can't tell you," he replies.

"Fine," I say. I look back. Percy is in his step-dad's car. He is talking to a red haired girl named Rachel. I can tell there is something special about her. She is a mortal that can see through the mist. But I can also tell she is in love with Percy. But he doesn't feel the same. Blackjack, a Pegasus that Percy saved, and a white Pegasus with Charlie Beckendorf on it lands on the hood of the car. Percy gets out of the car.

"It's time," Beckendorf says. Why do I call him by his last name? I stand up and brush the sand off. Apollo hands me my white cover up. I put it on so I'm not running around in only my black bikini. I'll go barefoot. I give Apollo a quick kiss.

"Ready?" I ask.

"Who said you were coming?" Percy asks instead of replying.

"I did," I tell him. "So I can make sure you don't kill yourself."

Percy gets on Blackjack. I hop on the back. We fly off. I hold on to Percy's waist to avoid falling off. Even being immortal, I still have a fear of heights. Go figure. Percy 'accidentally' almost throw me off. I slap him up side the head. He laughs. Luke's cruise ship comes into view. We land on the deck. No one is here.

"This way," Beckendorf whispers. A crab half my height chimed in front of us. Percy pulls out Riptide, his sword, and slide under the crab. He stabs it in the stomach. The crab turns into dust.

"Well?" Percy asks.

"My hero," I say sarcastically. I bump into him. We go down into the boiler room. Beckendorf pulls out some bombs he made. I hear people start running to the stairs.

"We're about to have company," I tell them.

"Distract them," Beckendorf orders. I run up the stairs. Three people charge towards me. I kick them over board. I don't want to kill anyone. Percy joins me.

"Maybe you should not where shoes more often," he says.

"Thanks," I reply. I pull out my sword. We both run to the front of the boat. Luke is standing there. But yet he is not Luke. His eyes are gold now and his aura is of pure evil. Before it was in between. And he is carrying a golden scythe instead of a sword.

"Lovely to see you two," he says.

"Kronos," I mutter under my breath.

"So you can tell that I'm not Luke," he says.

"No kidding," I reply.

"Then you must know what I have planned for you," he says.

"No," I tell him.

"Queen," he says as though it's already determined.

"What?" I shout.

"Luke's one request," he says. "Plus you see already immortal. And you haven't fought me yet."

"Yet is the key word," I say. He snaps his fingers. Two people pull Beckendorf to us. He is cut up and have black eye.

"I'm sorry," he mouths. He press a button on his watch. I go flying forward. Pieces of the boat on fire fly past me. I land in the water. At least I don't have to worry about air. I look for Percy. He is past out. I grab his waist and pull him deeper into the ocean. His dad's place is the best for him. Mermaids eventually come and take him out of my arms. One grabs my arm and pulls me to a courtyard. Now I have to face Poseidon.
