The Raise of the Raze: Chapter 9

Heart P.O.V
The scorpions were huge if you ask me. Their claws was the size of my body, just one claw stuck on me, then I was just history. I tried to dodge each attack of it, because I cannot beat this ugly being, because Global still has my sword.

"Hurry up Heart!" I heard Hippolyta scream, she was almost done with one scorpion. I screamed when the scorpion nearly crushed me.

"I can do it, but I can't cause Global still has it!!!!!!!!!!" I said grumpily. Global took my necklace out of her pocket and tossed it. When it came to my grasp, it was its sword form.

I grinned as I went sideways to dodge the scorpion, I ran under its belly to look for a soft spot.

It tried to squish me by sitting. SITTING!!!!!!!! I want to live up to 80 and not get killed because of a scorpion sat on me with its ugly belly!

I tried everything, EVERYTHING!!!!! That scorpion was smart if you ask me. I never knew desert creatures were that smart.

I dodged, stabbed the ugly belly, I even hugged one of its legs just to live!!! I got mad.

''Come on, Heart! Your special, not a weak kid! Now get out and fight!'' I scolded myself. I got off the scorpion and charged. Each painful step on the blazing sand, the more I prayed to Apollo.

Uh cousin, I need help!!! I thought, I know it wasn't the best prayer, but how the hell can I pray when a giant scorpion's chasing me!!

Then a voice went in my head: Lift your sword. He commanded.

Without any hesitation, I lifted it to see that flames got on it, then I remembered, the sun was a star, the stars are fire, my mom can control fire.

Thanks 'pollo. I thought.

I place it on the scorpion's direction and shot the fire, when he ate it, he exploded to bits, I collapsed to the ground, but I was wide awake. I looked to my right, I saw Hippolyta was coming near Annabeth.
