My new life.

Chapter 3.

Within around half hour we were already zooming throught the streets of Virginia. The cab hadn't slowed down or stopped once much to my stomachs dismay.
All I wanted was to stop for five seconds so I could throw up, was it really too much to ask?
I looked to my right and found Caleb looking just as green as I felt and then to my left to find Taylor with a face of pure exilaration. How could she be enjoying herself? She saw me staring at her and simply said, "I love rollercoasters!" Now a rollercoaster was one thing, but this, was something else.
Just I was beginning to think I would pass out when Caleb put a weary hand on my leg and said "We're not far now". I nodded gratefully and held back my travel sickness as much as possibe. I could hear the three drivers in front arguing and bickering as they had been the whole trip, their voices seemed to become more serious and I could help think something was wrong. I leant forwards to grip one of the front seats headrests and instantly regretted it, a wave of nausea rose up inside me worst than before. I took me a few seconds before I could speak. "Is something wrong?" I asked my voice coming out shaky.
"Wrong? Is something wrong? Maybe you should ask Tempest!!" Screeched the driver.
"Me?! I wasn't the one who lost it Wasp!!!" Cried the middle sister, Tempest adressing the driver who must have been called Wasp. "It was Anger!!" Tempest added turning on the last sister.
"I did no such thing!! And even if I did, how would you know you can't see!" Anger yelled.
"You can't see!?" I bellowed nearly emptying my stomach as I did.
"Why of course I can't" Tempest muttered, "Anger had the eye"
"The eye! Singular, the eye!" I yelled feeling even worse than before "You got us in a cab with three drivers who possess one eye! Between them!!" I turned on Caleb.
"Well I suppose you'd prefer to run all the way to Long Island with hell hounds and monsters chasing you for months then would you?" He replied.
"Well I-" I stopped suddenly realising something "Wait.... Anger Had the eye? Where is it now!?!" I screeched, my heart pounding in my chest, my breathing becoming rapid.
"I dropped it"
"Ha! You admit it!!" Wasp belowed as they went on arguing. I looked up and out the window, I'd never been to new york before but it sure as hell looked like the streets of Manhatten speeding by and we seemed to be going faster by the second....
"Urm guys... "
"I know" Caleb said exchanging a look of worry with me. "Wasp, our stop is coming up, shouldn't you be slowing down rather than speeding up?" He asked charming as ever.
"Well I would if I could see it was your stop, however I can't. So i'll keep going until I can see."
"You're kidding me" I said.
"They Grey sisters never kid" Said Caleb somberly. I could see the long island speeding by now, and in the distance an entrance to what must have been Camp half blood. I gulped back fear and plunged myself on the floor of the cab. "Rory! What in Tarturas are you doing!?" Caleb cried.
"I have know idea what Tarturas is but someone has to get this cab to stop, and it looks like it's me. Now get down here and help me find they're stupid eyeball!!" I yelled back up, my impulse taking over. Caleb shot down with me and we bagan to look for their eye as quick as we could.
"Guys.." Taylors voice spoke nevously. My body tensed,Taylor was never nervous this must be bad... "Camp is coming and fast!"
I cursed under my breath as Caleb suddenly yelled "There!! Look!! Right by Tempests foot!! you see it?" I did see it, A single grey eye staring at me from beside a foot. A foot that was rasied and started to drop...
"No!!" I screamed and grasped the eyeball just as Tempests foot came crashing down on my hand. I bit my lip and the taste of my own blood filled my mouth. I pulled my hand from under her foot and threw myself up shoving the eye into Anger's hand. "Take it!" Suddenly I realised how close we were to camp, we shot up the hill and past the borders heading down. "Anger!! Use your eye!!" Anger raised the eye and slipped it into one of her empty eye socket.
Blinking, she managed to yell "Stop!" at her sister just in the knick of time. Wasp stomped down on the brake and for I moment I was overcome wih relief, until I was thrown upwards out of the sun roof and into the air. I'm pretty sure I screamed as I went hurtling through the air, terrified for my life once again. Suddenly I was frozen cold, my clothes soaking wet and I couldn't breathe. It took me a moment to realise I was in the lake, slowly drowning because I didn't know how to swim. My vision was blurred and my eyes stung but I could still see the girl who swam up and started to haul me to the lakes surface. She was beautifu and graceful, two things I wasn't. She pushed me up and I broke the surface coughing and spluttering, thrashing around like a fish on land. I was barely concious of the strong hands that gripped my shoulders and pulled me onto land until they said "Will you quit struggling! That hurts you know!"

I rubbed my eyes as I steadied my breathing and when I looked up, the face I saw was unfamiliar but beautiful. It was a boy of around the same age as me- 15/16. He had messy brown hair slightly wet from helping me out the lake and the most gorgeous big brown eyes i'd ever seen. They had tiny flecks of black in the brown and a ring or pure green around the pupil you would only notice close up. "You're staring at me" He said arching one eyebrow, his voice held a clear English accent. I blinked realising what he said had been true.
"Sorry" I gasped.
"You have quite a punch there"he said smiling down at me. We were silent a few moments before I decided to speak.
"Are you going to lean over me all day?" I said arching an eyebrow back at him. He chuckled and stood up, holding out his hand to me. I took it gratefully and got wearily to my feet.
"I'm Jordan" He said and my stomach turned. For a moment I thought my sickness from the cab ride had came back, but this was different.
"Rory" I smiled back. "St. James" I decided to add for no particular reason.
"Well, welcome to came half blood Rory St. James."
