It wasn't a cry for help, but I heard enough of an edge of alarm from Valkyrie's voice within that I knew I had to do something. I took a few steps back and rushed the door with my shoulder. And bounced off. I clutched my shoulder in pain. "Hades! Ares!! Sweet Hephestus!!!"

Again I could hear Annabeth in my head. Use your feet Seaweed Brain!

"That advice would have been nice a little earlier!" I muttered through gritted teeth. I hauled back and kicked the door with all my might. It took three kicks before the wood splintered and the door sprang open. I rushed inside.
