The Sword and The Shield

Chapter 6

After that big mud fight, Chiron called us back into the big house. Ignoring Mr. D as he complained of all the mud we were tracking on his new Persian rug. "Alright children. I have an announcement." He stated we all groaned. Another quest? After we just lost Leo and just fought Gaea. Like a few days ago????

"Now children, let me finish. You will be attending high school, BUT for looking for certain objects. There is no prophecy. This is just an errand for the gods." Percy groaned loudly. We all knew he hated school, but this might just get us killed. "After you find those objects", he continued,"you will just come back here. Except Percy and Annabeth they already signed up for Goode High. Are we all clear?" We all nodded in agreement. "You shall also be staying in a simple house the gods have provided." I looked at him and said "But Chiron, what are these objects. We can't just go on a qu- errand for the gods, when we have no idea what to get." Everyone nodded in agreement. "Ahh. You will know when the time comes." As he said that he got up and left. The he poked his head in the door one more time,"We will leave tonight at 6:30." Then he officially left.

After that everyone just went to there cabins to pack. Someone knocked on my door. "Come in." I said. Piper stepped through. "I have just been going around telling everybody not to worry that much about clothes. But don't worry, I talked to mom about our styles." And with that she left.

I opened my new laptop, and went onto my documents. I looked at the plan for the new apartments and collage for Camp Half Blood. I was almost done, this was going to be a surprise for Percy for his birthday. So we don't have to go all that way to go to a safe collage. Not that I don't like Camp Jupiter, it's just- I sighed and closed my laptop. I stood up and set in my backpack.

I raced out of my cabin and then made my way to the van. I checked my watch. 6:15. Good I was right on time. Everyone else showed up. Apparently Leo begged Calypso for Dakota's "special" Kool aid.

And then he had 3 packs of Skittles.

And he is the most ADHD person in this car.

Oh gods this is going to be a LONG car ride.
