Author's notes:
So I really wanted to read something like this. It has been bugging me since I read the Son of Neptune.. I searched all the fanfiction sites but I couldn't find any. So I thought of writing it myself.. even though I'm a sucky story-teller.
This is my first story ever. So please bear with me.

It was over. The run was over.
We were surrounded, and outnumbered. And it was hopeless. No, not hopeless, I reminded myself, but the consequences would be way too much for me to handle. But I'll have to or I would never be able to live with myself. I remembered Gaia telling me that I'd be her pawn, but the question was HOW? What exactly was in her mind? Was she counting on what I was about to do? In that case should I not?
I knew the answer to that.. Of course I shouldn't but I WOULD.. Because that was my fatal flaw and Gaia knew it. But I couldn't think about that, not now, when my friends were in danger and I had the power to save them.
Through the corner of my eye I saw Piper and Hazel fighting together for the first time, trying to kill 9 monsters at once. Leo, who was standing not too far away from them was throwing fireballs after fireballs at any monster that came close to him. Frank was shape-shifting so fast - fighting 3 Earthborns - that he was a blur. Jason was fighting with a giant (not one of Gaia's son but still very dangerous), blood was dripping from his hands and mouth and I knew that he wouldn't last long. And lastly, I saw Annabeth, fighting with 3 cyclops and 5 dracane's at once, she looked at me and just for a second I sensed resignation.
And that was it. It seemed like that was all I needed to make my decision.
I collected all the water I could muster from the ocean (which was WAY too far away) and with a jerk let it lose on all the monsters, making a protective bubble around my friends so that they didn't get swept away.
'Climb the ship, I'm coming', I shouted.
But controlling that much of water was draining me and I could feel myself losing consciousness.
Finally, they were all aboard the boat, except me. Annabeth shouted for me to come up quick, but a dracane, who must've been hiding, grabbed me as the ship descended. Annabeth and Hazel shouted for Jason to stop but I caught his eye and told him to go on. I could tell that he understood, that he knew it was a lost cause. He nodded grimly and continued descending the ship.
Just then something pierced me from behind and I blacked out.
Sorry for all the typos.. my English sucks.
R&R. :D
