Pax POV
"Who have you been talking to?"
Annabeth freezes in her tracks and turns around.
"Remember Bob and Damasen said to not contact anyone." I say. "The only people we can trust are the demigods on this quest."
She turns around and scowls.
"I was just contacting our allies so they know where our position is." She spits out.
I squint at her. "Have you learned nothing from your first quest?"
"Relax, Pax." Annabeth sighs. "I made said person swear on Styx not to tell anyone where we are unless we're in trouble."
"And what exactly did you tell this person?" I almost shout.
She frown. "I told Sepia that we were in Percy's Bone Manor. Nothing more. Nothing less."
In the distance we hear a horde of hellhounds growling.
Annabeth looks down at the ground sheepishly.
"Did you even think what might've happened if you told the wrong person?" I yells.
Jason and Piper burst into the room.
"Hellhounds. Outside." Piper pants. "What. Happened?"
"Annabeth happened that's what." I snort. "She told Sepia where our location was when Bob and Damasen specifically told us not to contact anyone!"
Jason and Piper looks at Annabeth in shock.
Jason sighs. "Ladies, this is not the time to argue! We need to move out. NOW!"
Annabeth shrugs while I frown.
"Fine!" I eventually say. "But after moving to a safer location, we will discuss some ground rules for this quest."
The four of us move to the living room where we see Leo, Hazel, and a bear struggling to hold up a door.
"Quickly! We'll have to move out the back door!" Leo exclaims, holding up a wooden plank with pieces of wire in it. "I built something that should keep the door in place,but not for long! I'll nail it on while you guys escape!"
I nod and lead the others to the back door.
"Took you guys long enough."
I turn around to see Percy who had just shadow-traveled in.
"I got ourselves some meat for the road," he continues. "Let's go!"
We run to the door and step out. Leo joins us a few minutes later.
An army of hellhounds stand near the horizon, taunting us to come forward.
"Minotaur's Undies." Frank murmurs.
Hazel looks at him. "Watch your language."
Annabeth glares at the distance. "I will kill Sepia when if we come back. He truly has betrayed us."
