Chapter 96: Happy 20!!!
‘Dear Percy,
Forgive me if this is not the exact day – as I’m not sure when the letter will find you, but…
Happy 20!!!...’
Percy paused for a moment, calculating the date. With everything going on, he’d honestly forgotten about his birthday, which had actually been a couple days ago.
‘Close enough.’ he shrugged, returning to the message.
‘…I wanted to bake you a cake, though I wasn’t sure it would survive the trip. I suppose we’ll have to add it to those I owe you – what is it, three now? I can’t believe you’ve been gone for so long already…’
GRUMBLE
‘Ugh… a cake would be lovely right about now…’ he thought, grabbing his aching stomach.
His arguably spoiled dinner hadn’t done much to fill him up, but that didn’t stop it from stirring a storm in there, preparing for its prison break.
