I AM BACK BABY. Aha, sorry for not updating in forever. I've been very busy. Well, anyway here is a new chapter :D

Riley's POV

I watched Katrina and Lilian put the gas into the car. They took an hour to get it so hopefully its a enough for a while. Katrina gets back in the front seat. She puts the truck in drive and speeds off. I can tell she is getting pretty tired so I say, "Do you want me to drive?" She only shakes her head. We continue to drive and Lilian falls asleep. Her face is pressed up against the window. She looks like she was just put in a coma. I smile to my self as she lets out a loud snore. Katrina laughs a little.

"Sorry about earlier." I say. "Its alright, you just wanted to get it done."

After that the drive is silent.

The sun starts to peek through the horizon and it makes a stunning canvas of reds, oranges, and yellows. I remember seeing a painting like this before. I've always wanted to make such lovely paintings like that.

"You could have if you didn't become a huntress, and embarrassed me." A voice whispered in my head. My eyes widened. "Go away!" I screamed eternally. "As long as you have that tattoo on the bottom of your foot, I will never ever leave you alone." The voice faded, for now.

Katrina pulls into a IHop and gets out the car. I wake up the others and we walk into the triangle shaped building. "How many?" a petite woman says. "Six," I say. She grabs six menus and leads us over to a large booth. Phoenix, Olivia, and I sit on one side and the rest of us sat on the other. I looked at the great selection of breakfast food and settled on blueberry pancakes.

The waitress brought out our food in no time. The smell of it was divine, since I haven't eaten in what seems like forever. I stuffed my face with the pancakes. Lilian silently stirred her coffee and stared across the room. I stopped eating for five seconds and looked over at what she was staring at. She was staring at these two guys who had bandages wrapping around their temples. They must have gotten hit in the head with something. Lilian nudged Katrina, who was eating pancakes also, and she looked up. Her face scrunched up like she just ate a lemon.

"What is it?" I ask. "Its nothing. Well, actually last night those guys attacked us at the gas station and we kind of knocked them out and stole their money." Katrina says. I give her a smile of approval and she smiles backs. She holds up a large wad of cash and moves her eyebrows up and down. I laugh and ask,"How much do you got there?"

"Um, well, probably about $900." Lilian says. "I bet they're pissed." Ben says, breaking his silence. Olivia laughs and gives Ben a big smile. He smiles back and blushes. Hm, looks like Ben has a crush on someone. Phoenix is still silent and sleepy. Obviously she isn't a morning person. After we are all fueled up with food. We leave a $20 tip for the waitress and we leave. Lilian and Riley hide behind the rest of us so when we walk past those boys they won't notice them. I climb into the drivers seat and put the car in drive and speed off. Before I know it we are at a toll booth. Some states require you to pay a dollar or two to enter. It so happens that Indiana was one of those states. I pull up to a window and an old, fat man stands there and says,"two dollars ma'am." I look over at Katrina and she hands me two bucks. I turn back around to hand it to the man, and when I do a hand doesn't grab the money. Its a crab claw.

I yelp and pull my hand away. I step on the gas and crash through the barricade that is suppose to lift whenever you pay. When I look behind me I see an enormous crab coming full speed ahead at us. I'm pretty sure its the crab that Hercules stepped on with his foot, and the thing is I don't think any of us will be able to step on that big thing. I swerve through crowds of cars and the crab simply steps on them. The crap slams its body into the side of the truck and it flips. There is a moment where everything is in slow motion. As we go upside down I grab my bow and arrow, aim, and shoot it at one of the crabs eyes. It lets out a loud shriek. It was a mix between a lion roar and a elephant. The Truck continues to roll into a dense forest. when we stop we are upside down, and the car is beyond repair. I slowed the crab down by blinding it in one eye, but I knew I didn't have much time. I rolled out the shattered window and notch my bow. The others do the same and ready their weapons. You can feel the earth shake as the crab gets closer.

Boom….boom…...boom…..BOOM! The crab exploded from the thick trees and comes right at me. I shoot arrows at it but they simply bounced off it. I cursed and in the corner of my eyes I see Katrina fidget, she looks angry, stressed, and sad at the same time. I frown at her then all the sudden she let out this loud battle cry and charged the beast. She curses in Greek at it as she slices and hacks at the beast. She gets on top of the crab and drives her dagger into the beast, and it drops to the ground, dead. It turns into golden dust. Katrina stands there heaving in and out, and even her breathing sounds mad.

"What was that…?" Olivia asks. "That, my dear, was Katrina's other personality, Rina."

Yeah, it was kinda short, but I will be updating more frequently. But, there will be no pattern. Sometimes I'll update two days later and sometimes two weeks later. Anyhow, review, follow, and favorite this story. It'll mean a lot to me :D
