Prologue
"Luke!" Percy called as he ran into the open chamber, in the center of which, held a man, held by chains over a large hole, filled with lava. "Or should I say Kronos?"
"Ah, Percy" Kronos/Luke said, "how nice of you to join me while I free Typhon"
"I'm not going to let that happen!" Percy yelled
"Too late!" Kronos/Luke yelled and slashed the chains with the scythe.
"No!!" Percy yelled and ran forward. But the scythe fell on the chains and cut them to shreds like paper.
"AHAHAHA!" Kronos laughed maniacally. The floor shook as the man rose and started to walk forward.
"Millennia I have waited in my slumber" Typhon said, his voice like mountains grinding together "waited for someone to raise me, to free me from my prison. Now I am free. And I shall have my revenge on those that cast me there!" I charged and tried to hit him with my sword, but the blade just bounced off him, as though made of plastic.
"What's this? A fly?" Typhon growled. And with that he flicked me in the forehead, sending me flying back into a wall.(An. Guy must play a lot of halo XD) I managed to raise my head to see Kronos standing above me.
"This is where it ends, Perseus Jackson" he said. And raised his scythe
"Luke, No!!!!" Annabeth cried from the doorway. Kronos/Luke paused, and turned to the doorway. That was the first time I had been happy she still cared for him. I then took my turn, while I could. I kicked him in the stomach with all my might. Sending him 5 feet back, and giving me enough time to get up and uncap Riptide.
"So now the fight begins." Kronos growled. Our swords clashed for what seemed like ages, before I finally started getting tired. He was almost on top of me when a knife appeared in his arm.
"what?" he said. Then he stared at blank space and grabbed a spot in thin air. That spot happened to be where Annabeth's neck was. With his other arm he pulled out the knife.
"Luke" she whispered "please…"
"Sorry, Luke's not here, can I take a message?" Kronos grinned
"LET GO OF HER!!"Percy yelled and smashed Kronos in the face with the hilt of his sword Annabeth fell to the ground. He hit him over and over again until he fell to his knees in front of the lava pit.
"Do it" Kronos panted "kill me" Percy glanced over at Annabeth who was picking herself up off the ground, and realized he couldn't do it. He lowered his sword.
"Ha!" Kronos laughed "a true warrior shows no mercy." And with that, he stood up. In a flash of light, Kronos left Luke's body, and flew to the other available evil vessel in the room, Typhon. Luke was so shocked by this he stepped backwards, and fell into the pit. I caught his arm just in time.
"Let go of me!" he screamed.
"Annabeth never gave up on you" Percy yelled "I'm doing this for her, not me" He started swinging Luke so he could get him up easier. But as he was swinging Luke tried to wriggle free. His arm dipped below the lava.
"ARRRGH!" he screamed in agony. Percy pulled him up. Luke was on his knees holding a cauterized burned off stump of a forearm. His hand had been burned clean off, and his entire arm had been burned, badly. Somehow he found the strength to stand.
"Ahem?" Typhon/Kronos said. He had recovered from transferring bodies and was now beginning to stand up. The scythe was lying almost directly in between both of them. they both ran towards it. Percy took out his shield and threw it at Typhon. It hit him directly in the face, knocking him 3 feet backwards and giving Percy a chance to pick up the scythe, spin around and cut him cleanly in half at the waist.
"What…How?" Kronos muttered
"Never underestimate the gods" Percy said. And with that Percy cut off his head. He turned back to Annabeth and Luke, or where Luke should have been. All he saw was Annabeth, on her knees crying her eyes out. He walked over and put his arms around her.
"What happened?" He asked. Annabeth managed to stop sobbing for a minute.
"I told him that we needed to get him to camp half-blood to get his arm looked at, but he just said that if we tried to take him back he'd just run away again, so don't try, and also that he couldn't stand me." She looked as if she was going to cry "You don't think that too, do you?"
"No, of course not" Percy said, and he started to blush "I actually…."
"What?" She asked
"I love you" he said quietly
"Percy…." She said, starting to blush as well "I love you too…" They sat there for a long time, until they got up and left that cavern behind, hand in hand.
