The Other Side of Power Chapter 9

Darius P.O.V.
Schieße! (s**t) Zhat that vas was doof, I mean stupid [Do I haf zu vite zis like you lot? Englisch ist zu confusing!] Ok, for the record, anyone else in this group (no offence Viktoria) who tries to speak like me must remember a few rules:


 * 'w' = 'v'


 * 'v' = 'f'


 * 'f' is still 'f'


 * 'ß' is like 'ss'


 * 'th' = 'z'/'zh'


 * to/too = zu

Unless your completly brain dead, then this should be easy zu to follow. Now where were we. . . oh, Ja (yeh):

Warping was no mean feat, but I have never tried to transport more than myself at the same time. But when in desperate times, people will do anything that they think would be better than facing (um . . . vas it acht, ja) eight demigods which completly out numbering us.

When we finally stopped, Victoria fell straight out [Vhat? You did asvell], she wasn't perticially pleased with landing face first into the sand, but I just thought of retreating back to where I knew was safe.

Victoria spat out a mouthfull of sand and stared round at me. "Where did you bring us!?" (Und she said I had an attitude).

"I brought us back zu Las Fegas, I haf a room in de Lotus Hotel".

She was picked herself up, but was still in a bad mood. "I can't believe they have taken Mount Orthys, what will the others think!?"

She kept on for hours, yapping about what Jacoby, Callista and the others were going to say, how she was interpretating how the campers were probably going hunt us down once they search our equipment, and. ..

" . . . you know what Darius, you could have been of much better help back there!"

My muscles clenched "Oh Really, vell if you hadn't let de hunteress put zhat blade zu your throat, zhen I might haf seen zhem coming and could have prevented zis infilitration, instead of safing your ass!"

Her face was going red, her chest began to glow wierdly [don't call me a perv] "Well I didn't need your help, she would have been toast before you smogged the place with your entrance. If you had forgotten, that Annabeth couldn't have moved because she was immobile from carrying the sky, sooo . . ."

"Vait!" I interupted. i just suddenly hit me when Victoria "I haf just realised zhat they won't be moving any where for a vhile, because someone still needs zu hold up de sky".

Victoria relaxed slightly, but she was still angry at me. I managed to convince her to follow me to the hotel. As soon as I walked in, a staff member immeadiatly walked up to me.

"Oh, Mr Slade. Back already it seems. We have your room left just how you remember it, nothing has been touched and there has been a few extensions to the hotel recently. Here is your Diamond Card: Platnium Edition. and remember to stop by at the new show 'Galdiatoral Battles' that we are presenting all night every hour." He continued with a huge smile he always had like he had stappled them to his cheeks. "And just now we have made an extension to your room for company and even for group meetings aswell".

"Danke (thanks) Jimmy" I replied. I took the card from his hand and entered the nearest elevator. Victoria was a little surprised by Jimmy, but so was everyone who walked in. We finally reached the nineteenth floor, and I opened my door: room 45 it said on it [Vhat are you laughing about? . . . oh Ja fery funny: 19,45. Ja vell. . . vhy does 19 75 seem so familiar. . . oh ja, America loses Fietnam Var. Gut zhat shut you up, Sonnig auf ein. . . . nefer mind]
