The Raise of the Raze: Chapter 23

Global's POV

I pocketed my Swiss knife silently and rubbed my arms in the cold. My skin was almost blue, and my teeth were chattering.

After the monsters, Hippolyta and Heart began a fast-paced conversation about how are we going to get back to Camp Half-blood. Josh began glowing, maybe to heat himself up, and he looked a little pale and weak. Annabeth sat beside me, whispering to herself.

Five minutes of staring into a desert of ice made me bored. Hippolyta and Heart were still talking, and Hippolyta looked exasperated.

I don’t know what made me do it, but I stood up and used all my strength to create an invisible car, able to cross through any terrain.

Feeling a little groggy, I clapped my hands to get Hippolyta and Heart’s attention. I proudly gestured to the car, but they looked at me with blank faces.

“Oh yeah.” I produced the keys of the car and pressed the theft alarm button. The two, quick beeps of the car was heard.

“An invisible car?” Heart said, half-surprised, half-impressed. I nodded and opened the door for them. “Watch your head, Hippolyta.”

Annabeth and Josh trudged over to us, a questioning look on their faces. Sighing, I made the invisibility disappear from the car (‘course, I could do that.) and there it was, a sleek Ferrari Super America.

I rubbed my eyes, trying to stay awake. “Now, go in. I can’t drive, even if I had this remote control, because I’m too weak. Heart, can you?” I dangled the keys sleepily in front of her, and she sighed and nodded.

I smiled as everyone got in. It was pretty tight, but soon, we closed the doors and Heart revved up the engine. And we shot out so fast, my skin was really peeling off.

Then I blacked out in exhaustion.
