[This is not exactly what Annabeth had been hoping for with the whole distraction part of this invasion. Technically, it serves exactly that purpose; she just wish they hadn't gone so big so fast.]
[And she's about to vocalize her gripe with it, when she hears the sounds of running. Percy and Leo are too busy being distracted by the distraction themselves, and she's pretty sure Roy's still basking over it. She slides on her cap and disappears, just in time for three guards to cough their way through the smoke of the explosion.]
[Before they can call out and sound more alarms, Annabeth's behind them, slamming the hilt of her knife into the back of one of them, sending him to the ground. The other two look over at their fallen comrade, but it's barely ten seconds later before the both of them go down, too.]
Way to go, genius! [She doesn't come back into sight, listening carefully for the sounds of anyone else that might have been lured over by the explosion. There's bound to be more, and better to keep the advantage she has right now.] We need to move, unless we want to get caught before anything else.
