Leo opened his eyes and sat straight up in bed. Ella stood over him, a horrified look on her face. “What? What do I have on my face?” he said, rubbing his face. Sadie started to laugh. “What is she doing in here?” She covered her mouth with her hands. “Shh! Don’t yell! We were attacked and the raiders are searching the cabins for anyone they can challenge. We’re hiding,” Ella said, holding a finger to her lips. “And we don’t want to wake Artie and frighten him,” the Doctor whispered. Leo jumped. He had forgotten the Doctor was in here. “And the TARDIS is not an option, they already took it. She isn’t going to be happy when they open her up,” he was saying. “Who isn’t going to be happy? River or the TARDIS?” Sadie asked. “Probably both,” the Doctor said. “Well I’m going to slip into the bathroom and change,” Leo said, trying to avoid thinking after he had just woken up.
“Hey, we could’ve had worse,” Percy reasoned. “Worse? What’s worse than getting stuck in a room with Hedge and Strax?” Annabeth snapped. “Okay, you got me there,” Percy breathed, afraid of setting off her temper. But Annabeth wasn’t done, “I mean, seriously? We’re stuck in a room with a goat who has an obsession with killing and Mr. Potato Head, army style. And you’re saying it could be worse? Oh, and did I mention the venomous lizard?” “’The venomous lizard’ has ears, you know,” Madame Vastra commented. Annabeth opened her mouth to say more, but Percy quickly covered it. “That’s enough out of you,” he said, when Annabeth gave him a dirty look. She rolled her eyes, but she didn’t speak again. “Since that’s settled, let’s figure out a way to escape,” Percy said. He wasn’t exactly the brains of the operation, but he was glad to be lea...

Exactly five minutes later, they met at the bow. “Artemis,” Ella whispered, “Leo has an intercom device on Festus, we need to move our meeting. Does the crow’s nest sound good?” They climbed to the crow’s nest. Ella stared expectantly at Artemis, “Well, out with it.” Artemis smiled, “You really want to know why I’m here?” Ella nodded. “Fine,” Artemis sighed, “The real reason I followed you is because,” he paused and bit his lip. “I like you,” he whispered, so quite that it was barely audible. She stared at him, her mouth wide open in surprise. “You what?” she asked. He blushed, “I like you.” The second time it struck her hard and she blushed bright red. “At least the feeling is mutual,” she whispered. This time Artemis blushed, “You do?” She crossed her heart and nodded. “Does anyone else know?” he whispered. She shook her head, “It was a secret.”

  • Bird Omen In The Odyssey

    655 Words  | 2 Pages

    The first bird omen, appearing before the assembly of suitors and Telemachos in The Odyssey li. 146-154 (pg. 43), portrays the impending struggle between Odysseus and the suitors as a fight between two eagles. The description of the battle, through phrases including “wing and wing” and “tore each other by neck and cheek with their talons,” characterizes the fight as violent, yet evenly matched. Halitherses’s subsequent interpretation classifies this fight as a “warning to the suitors” of the nearing return of Odysseus to Ithaka and their inevitable conflict with him (Od. li. 162, pg. 43). While Halitherses’s interpretation of the fight as foreshadowing is accurate, two of the next three bird omens reveal that the bird omens throughout The Odyssey

    “It was a large, beautiful room, rich and picturesque in the soft, dim light which the maid had turned low. She went and stood at an open window and looked out upon the deep tangle of the garden below. All the mystery and witchery of the night seemed to have gathered there amid the perfumes and the dusky and tortuous outlines of flowers and foliage. She was seeking herself and finding herself in just such sweet half-darkness which met her moods. But the voices were not soothing that came to her from the darkness and the sky above and the stars. They jeered and sounded mourning notes without promise, devoid even of hope. She turned back into the room and began to walk to and fro, down its whole length, without stopping, without resting. She carried in her hands a thin handkerchief, which she tore into ribbons, rolled into a ball, and flung from her. Once she stopped, and taking off her wedding ring, flung it upon the carpet. When she saw it lying there she stamped her heel upon it, striving to crush it. But her small boot heel did not make an indenture, not a mark upon the glittering circlet.

It is not good to note this down, lest some day it should meet Mina’s eyes and cause her pain, but it is the truth. The fair girl shook her head coquettishly, and the other two urged her on. One said, “Go on! You are the first, and we shall follow. Yours is the right to begin.” The other added, “He is young and strong. There are kisses for us all.” I lay quiet, looking out from under my eyelashes in an agony of delightful anticipation (39).
