xiii Sneak peak
Percy Jackson should've warned me about this“So, what’s happening, little Yeri?” Of course Wendy would suspect of her, the Apollo child was acting weird and cold towards her friend. Yeri just stayed silent, wondering if the girl was making some assumption, at least Joy gave her the benefit of doubt.
Yeri smiled, like always in this situations.
“I don’t know, Father is angry” She replied with some ease, as if the situation isn’t bad enough.
“He has all the right to be angry, Pandora’s Box is lost! In the wrong hands would be a catastrophe” Wendy seemed agitated, poor her, Yeri thought, always the worry cat.
“Yeah, so bad” But Yeri wasn’t worried at all, just bored, living like a Demigod and working by the side of Dionysius is boring. Wendy frowned, and was ready to lash out at her small friend.
“You don’t care” She said, with realization. The mushy eyebrows furrowed more, and there was a strange glint in those big eyes. “You don’t give a about what may happen”
Yeri shook her head, feeling defensive for a reason. But it was true, not her problem but Zeus’ problem.
“I don’t care, you are right” Those eyes turned cold steel, and Yeri was surprised to see Wendy angry, angry enough to curse.
“Joy and you are so similar” Wendy said through gritted teeth “Only thinking about the fun and leaving the responsibilities for others”
Yeri snorted, and looked away, in silence.
“It’s not that, Wendy”
But Wendy was seething, and walked to her friend.
“This is a huge problem, Pandora’s Box, out of all things, the Titans. All those new kids aren’t ready for a war, Yeri, they are too young”
Yeri sighed, and thought about Jisoo’s pained face for a second, and felt bad for not caring.
“What we can do?”
Wendy took a few steps into Yeri’s room, remembering those times where all of them were friends, and all the laughter and all the joy and all the love. She contemplated the idea that consumed her mind, that have been plaguing her brain for a very long time, one look at Yeri’s face and it vanished.
Yeri saw it.
“Maybe your father will know what to do, I wont be surprised if I am elected for this Quest” Wendy said, and Yeri’s stare was intense.
“Why would you be selected?”
Wendy sat down in the bed, which creaked at her weight. She contemplated her answer, and chose the cheeky one
“I am the leader of Apollo’s cabin, why wouldn’t I be selected?”
Yeri smirked. Her eyes shone, and her lips quivered.
“It’s that arrogance what I hear in your voice? You know
