Chapter 3: Annabeth’s point of view
Percy was having a panic attack on the plane. It was pretty fun to watch…unless he started puking. I reached my hand out and help his.
“I HATE flying,” Percy whined. He looked back over his shoulder where Thalia and Lily were practically crying. ’I’m doing better than them,” he boasted.
“Be nice. Zeus might be trying to kill Artemis and Lily and your laughing at them,” I knew he was just kidding but I was anxious to get back on the ground. Zeus might just want to get 2 birds with one stone. He wouldn’t hesitate but his only daughter is on this plane. Thank ALL the gods for that.
“Hello passengers, thank you for flying with us. We have now safely landed and we ask that people with small children please exit the plain first. Thank you and a have great stay in London, England,” the flight attendant’s voice stopped with a short click. And normally after that it would be pretty peaceful unless your friends sprint out of the plane as fast as they can.
“Come on,” Percy said as he pulled me to my feet. “ We are in London, and even you can’t make this boring.”

That was about an hour ago he said that and now he won’t said saying, “This is so boring! Can’t like something attack us!”
“Here Percy,” I said as I led us away from the crowds and along a deserted stretch of beach. “Perfect!” I called as I slowly dipped my hand into the water. It wasn’t as cold as I thought it would be. “So what do you think Lily and Thalia are doing now?” I asked.
“Probably saving some forest,” Percy replied as he waved his hands to the rhythm of the tide.
“Probably,” I agreed. It has been a long day and all I wanted to do was sleep. “What’s that?!” I cried as something chilling brushed up against my face. I opened my eyes and jumped right to my feet.
“Relax, it was the water,” Percy was blushing. Of course, the only thing you can trust a son of Poseidon to do is mess with water. Soon we were both blushing.
“Excuse me, but can we talk to you both for a second,” a stranger called out. I eyed Percy and he immediately understood. Time for plan numero uno- RUN LIKE HELL!!!
