The security guards fought us till they won. They took us to the main office.

"Percy Jackson, the one who recked this casino." Said one of them.

"Yes, I did. What do you want?" I asked.

"We want Stiles Stilinski. We know you know him" he said and I looked at Annabeth and Grover. Grover mouthed 'Did they not see him?' And I shrugged.

"I don't know where he is. Never seen him" I said.

"One more question before..." He trailed out.

"What. Are you gonna kill us?" I asked.

"No, he isn't gonna kill us, he cabt, it will start a war between them and our parents" Annabeth said.

"We won't kill you, but we won't let you go till you tell me where he is" he said.

Just as I was making up a lie another guy walked in.

"Stiles Stilinski is here! He is under the trance." He said.

I began to squirm. They didn't tie the knot tight. I wasn't listening to what they were saying.

My hand slipped through rope. I untied the rest of my hand silently. I looked over and Grover and Annabeth did the same. We kept out hands behind our backs.

"I will get him myself" our kidnapper said and I sprung up and kicked him in the face. Knocked him out.

"Well then, good job?" Annabeth said shocked at my quick movements.

"Lets get them out quickly. All hell is gonna break loose" I said as we began running down the hall and into the casino.

"You guys look for pearls, I will get them. Meet at that truck right there" I said pointing to the new truck that was for sale in the casino. They nodded and we split. I found Stiles first.

He was playing poker. I walked up to him.

"Oh hey, Percy." He said grabbing another flowers I smacked it away.

I grabbed his shoulder and pulled him away.

"Hey! I was winning" he said.

"Wake up! Your under a trance!" I said and Stiles eyes flashed with reconization.

"Oh my..." He looked worried.

"What? What did you do?" I asked.

"I made out with Lydia! Oh my age is gonna kill me!" He yelled and I started laughing.

"Just let's find them and get out of here." I said with a smirk.

We next found Lydia.

Lydia walked up to stiles and gave him a harsh kiss. He kissed her back, but then pushed her away.

"Lydia, your in a trance. Wake up!" He said and she looked at him blankly.

"The flowers. It's a trap!" He said saving his hands and she snapped back.

She then slapped him. He looked shocked.

"What the hell?!" He yelled rubbing his face.

"That was for you letting me makeing out with me earlier....And this is for you bring a really good kisser" she said as she kissed me. Percy gasped and I smirked as she pulled away.

"Lets find Scott" she said and I just nodded.

Percy patted me on the back.

"What?" I asked.

"Seriosly, she just called you a good kisser and then she kissed you. That's a score, little one" Percy said.

Little one? Now I know how Liam feels.

"Really! I'm like 2 years younger. 2 years!" I said.

"Still, I'm older." He said laughing.

Lydia looked back when she found Scott. We quickly got him out and we began to head to the truck. Maybe we don't have to steal the car.

I spoke to soon.

"Stiles Stilinski! Please make your way quietly to the stage. We will cause no harm!" The main guard yelled.

"Shit!" All 4 of us yell. We catch up to Grover and Annabeth. They had both pearls. We ran out the doors.

I heard footsteps and yelling behind us. I began to run faster.

We were almost to the car when I heard 2 gunshots.

I felt pain serge throught my shoulder. I was shot. Twice.

"Ahhhh" I screamed and stumbled. Everyone gasped and Scott caught me. My shoulder was in blinding pain. I half ran half was being dragged by Scott. Once we made it to the car I was thrown in. I yelled in pain.

"Oh my god..." Lydia yelled.

"W-wh-what?" I asked still groaning in pain.

Lydia turned to Scott and Percy and Annabeth looked back while Grover drove to a parking lot and stopped and they lifted me into the bed of the truck.

"There's alot of blood" she whispered to them.

"We have to take him to the hostpital" Lydia said.

"We cant, that what they want. They would take him then" Annabeth said.

"I-it re-really h-hur-hurts!" I said yelling in pain. I was sweating and was really cold.

"Yeah-Yeah, we know, your gonna be okay" Scott said.

I raise my hand up to my shoulder I touched it.

"Ahhh!!" I screamed in pain again.

"Lydia, switch seats with me!" Annabeth said and her and Lydia switched seats.

"Let me look" she said.

She examined my shoulder then my eyes.

"Okay, by the way he is bleeding he will most likely bless to death in 20 mins at the most. One bullet is still in there" she said.

"How are we gonna get it out?" Scott asked.

"I'm gonna push it out with this" she pulled out a scaple that was in a first aid kit.

"Want me to take his pain away?" Scott asked.

"No, you can't do it for long...do it while I take it out. It will still hurt like hell, but he won't pass out." She said and Scott nodded.

"Okay, we have to get this out. It's gonna hurt like hell but we have to" Annabeth said and I slightly nodded groaning in pain as I did.

She grabbed a towel and put in under my shoulder. Percy, Grover, and Lydia held me down. I slightly groaned. Annabeth then came at me with the scaple, she slowly made her way into the wound. I screamed in pain. I was crying.

"So you want something in your mouth" Percy asked and I somehow choked out a yes in between my cries in pain. Percy puts clean rag in my mouth. Everyone looked sad.

Annabeth continued and I continued my muffled cries and screams. Annabeth looked at Scott telling him to take my pain away now. He does as she pushes the bullet out. Let me tell you, it didn't work, the pain was ungodly. I screamed louder then i ever thought I could.

Annabeth quickly stitched them up. Which hurt and then put a bandage on them. I was still in pain, but not as bad. I felt dizzy.

"Here, drink this and take this" Grover said. He handed me a bottle of water and a pain killer.

"Thanks" I said to Annabeth. My voice was scratchy from screaming.

"Welcome. Are you okay? Like are you still in pain? I have never been shot before" She asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine, it doesn't hurt." I said as I pushed the tears that want to come.

"Don't let him fool, you Annabeth, he is still in pain. Alot of it, because Stiles doesn't cry unless something really hurt." Scott said.

"I'm fine!" I said as a tear ran down my cheek.

"You were just fucking shot, Stiles! If your in pain, tell someone! You act like your okay, like you didn't just scream in pain for a half hour. We have seen you scream and cry, and it's okay. It just makes me mad that you try to hide your pain because you don't want to be the center of attention. Stiles, it's OK not to be okay! Just because you cry because you were just fucking shot doeant mean your weak. You were SHOT, it's okay to be in pain!" Percy yelled.

And that triggered it, I felt tears stain my favr. I don't know if it was the pain of just all the stress for the last couple days.

"Oh my god, I'm so sorry!" Percy said.

"Your fine, it's not you. He needed that okay not to be okay talk...because he is not okay, but he will be." Scott said.

I stopped crying. And Scott gave me a hug. I just let him hug me because of my shoulder.

"It really hurts" I said with a smile

"I know. But at least your not dead! That's a good thing!" Scott said with a smile.

I felt fuzzy. I started laughing.

Pain killers.

"Pain-killers" they all said as we got into the car.

"Scotttt, whyyy did the Chickennn Llllama cross th-" I was cut off by Scott.

"What the hell is a chicken llama?" He asked and I shrugged. I had no more pain. I was just fuzzy.

"Iiii don't knowww. A chickennnn llama is what it issss?!" I said and giggled.

"I think you need to go to sleep" Scott said laughing.

"Yeeaah, iiim a liittle tired" I said as I layed my head down and fell asleep almost instantly.
