after a lot of running, we emerge deeper into the underworld. it honestly looks like a desert.

"weird, i haven't heard the dog in awhile." grover pointed out.

"he chased us all that way and then just... stopped?" percy thought aloud.

"i don't think that's normal." i said.

"that's what i'm saying." percy responded.

all of a sudden grover began walking forward at a fast pace.

"grover?" i walked quicker to catch up with him.

"grover, where are you going?" the blonde boy did the same.

"i don't— i don't know. i— i can't stop!" he began to panic and trip over luke's converse he was wearing. "guys, it's the shoes!"

we both started sprinting to him. "grover!"

"PERCY! MAE!" he screamed.

when we stoop atop of a sandhill, a deep black mass stood before us.

my eyes widen in fear. "tartarus."

percy and i leap down and hold onto the satyr for dear life, but we keep sliding down.

percy then grabbed riptide and plunged it into the sand to make us stop falling.

i pulled up grover with all my mortal strength. "let the shoes fly off!"

a couple second later they did and we all collapsed and were breathing hard.

when percy tried to back up, his backpack weighed him down and made a clank.

"what was that?" grover managed to say between breaths.

percy took the backpack off his shoulders and zipped it open. i sat up and moved closer to him.

he struggled to take the item out of the bag, but when he did my jaw dropped.

in percy's hand was a powerful weapon. the very purpose of our quest.

my father's lightning bolt.

percy looked at me nervously "is this—"

"no." his best friend cut him off.
