《The Son Of Artemis book 3》Chapter 5: Thalia Gets Her First Driving Lesson

Advertisement

Apollo arrived in the sun chariot, which was a golden Maserati for some reason, "hey sis you called....wait I have a haiku for this"

"If you dare even speak that haiku I don't care what milady says I'll castrate you" Zoë threatened, "I have had it up to here with your terrible haikus, just like your just as bad limericks"

Apollo, "Grass pushes through the snow, Artemis " that was all he said before zoë and the other hunters shot at him with their bows

"AHHH please call them off" Apollo begged

"just don't do poetry in front of them. It shouldn't be that hard little brother" Mom said scondling uncle A

"Ok I won't finish my haiku, you bunch of critics" Apollo said, cowering behind the sun chariot

"good" Zoë replied, and the hunters stopped shooting arrows at Apollo

"Well I for one wanted to hear it" Peter stated

"We'll kill you too boy" Zoë stated twirling a knife in her hand.

"Yeah I'm not going to finish it. I very much like living...maybe later in more favorable company, cuz" Apollo stated to Peter.

"So why did ya call sis" Apollo asked

Mom let out a sigh, "I told you when I called, but since you seemingly left your brain elsewhere. You are to take my companions to Camp Half-Blood. Along with Chiron's campers."

"but why"

"I need to hunt" Mom replied, "Alone, Brother"

Apollo put his hands up in surrender, "ok ok. I'll do it"

"Good. Now Zoë you are in charge, do as I would" Mom stated,

"Yes, milady" Zoë replied, to which mom walked off into the woods.

"nice car" Nico said

"Yeah I like it too" Apollo responded

"So how are we all going to fit" Nico asked

"Wait...oh give me a second" Apollo said and pulled out his keys turn 'his sports car' into a small bus. "There that should do. All aboard. One way trip to Camp Half blood with continuing travels west" Apollo shouted, and my sisters went up into the bus heading to the back.

Peter tried to follow them to the back, but they pulled out there bows and threatened him. Apollo however stepped in between Peter and my sisters, "look I don't want a dead child of Uncle P here so how about Peter sits up front and you all don't kill him"

"We will consider it, but if he violates those terms. He's dead" Zoë stated

Apollo sighed in relief, "phew avoided a close one there" he said, as Peter grumply sat up front.

"Alright so who's driving" Apollo asked

"Oooh ooh can I" Nico asked

"Nico you are too young to drive" Bianca said slapping him over the head lightly.

"Yeah I agree with her kid sorry"

"can I" grover asked

"No too furry"

Apollo then looked at Thalia, "You're Thalia right, Zeus's kid" Apollo asked, and Thalia nodded

"hmm you're a bit too young, but sis has been teaching my nephew to drive the moon chariot. hmmmm. You're driving" Apollo said shoving Thalia into the driver's seat.

Thalia paled like she didn't want to do this, "But why me" She asked

"You're my lil sis and someone has to teach you to drive, so why not learn from your awesome older bro" Apollo stated

"but you said I was to young" Thalia said trying to get out of it.

"Yeah the same age as my nephew sadly. Sorry about the change in birthday, but that tree messed up your aging" Apollo said

"Same age as Percy? How can you tell"

"God of Prophecy, now lightly apply pressure to the gas, and pull back. Remember with the sun chariot's speed equals heat" Apollo said

Thalia floored it, and I was sent flying back...

into Zoë.

Apollo started freaking out to the trained eye, but he was still managing to hide his worry to the untrained eye. "Let up the gas a little, lil sis" Apollo said nervously.

I took the chance to look back and see that where we left was just fire. poor trees, Apollo tried to murder them through Thalia.

"Hey Percy have you seen Zoë" Phoebe asked next to me.

"No, but my landing zone felt oddly shaped like Zoë" I replied

"Would you get off me little brother" Zoë said

"Ohh I found her Phoebe" I said getting off Zoë and turning to point at her.

"Thanks little bro I was getting worried we left her behind" Phoebe snickered to which Zoë slapped both of us upside the head.

I made my way back to the front to see how Thalia was doing, and let's just say it was not well. She was having a full on panic attack. But why?

"a little lower in altitude sis, Cape cod is freezing over" Apollo said, and Thalia sent us into a slight dive

"Alright now a little higher, you're lighting Montauk on fire" Apollo said, and we began to skyrocket gaining altitude fastly. At this rate Thalia is going to take us into orbit or plumitting to our deaths. I should've asked mom if I could drive her chariot to camp, even if it would take an extra day.

"Alright sis now, we need to lower altitude and break" Apollo said

"I got this" Thalia mumbled to herself as we were practically free falling into camp.

"Thalia Break please. I'm too hot die" Apollo pleaded

"I got this" Thalia mumbled again.

"FOR THE LOVE OF ANYTHING BREAK" Apollo shouted, as we nose dived into the canone lake.

We went down quite a ways and could see the bottom, before the bus began to rise up again.

Once the bus broke the surface, Apollo took a look around and saw all the angry naiads, looking at him with their half woven smoldering baskets in hand. "welp" Apollo stated, ignoring the naiads, "let's get you all outside to see if we broiled anyone alive" He continued, opening the doors of the bus letting all of us out, only for me to see the numerous half melted canone's, and naiads looking right past us glaring at Apollo.
