A/N: Think of this as the Alpha Sapphire 3DS to the Sapphire GBA. Same story, but better. Enjoy! Please review.
Thunk. I frowned. So close to the bulls-eye yet not close enough. I notched another arrow and shot again. Thunk. Missed again. I sighed and lowered the bow that I'd been holding for the good part of the hour. After the whole "Saving Olympus' ass" incident I'd started working on being better at wielding more weapons though Athena kids firmly believed in brain over brawn. Because you know what? Thoughts couldn't cut through sticky web. Ideas couldn't save you when a monster on a disgusting unknown number of legs slowly crawled towards you. I shuddered as the visuals from my nightmares flooded my mind. Everything was horrible, the stench of those monsters, the damp, underground cavern that was the backdrop of every dream, the feeling of helplessness as I was stuck in the center of a giant web. Though I wanted to tell myself it wasn't real, that when a week passed and I'd had nothing but pleasant dreams of a somewhat cute but also very irritating green eyed boy, I'd sink into sleep and be dragged back to the monster's web. I wanted to say it was her, Arachne, but somehow I knew it wasn't. It was something worse. I shuddered and picked up my bow again. Thunk. I smiled grimly. Bulls-eye.
