Hey everyone!

I decided to do this idea because almost nobody else has done it, and what does my profile say? "If there is a book you really want to read, but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it." So that is what I am doing ;) I hope you enjoy chapter 1!

"Stupid Underworld." Annabeth muttered.

"Why couldn't he have picked somewhere above ground?" I asked.

"I don't know…that's what troubles me." Annabeth said.

Nico had asked us to meet him near the River Lethe for some sort of important mission. So here we were, walking through the Underworld.

"It's not so bad…I mean we've been through Tartarus and back, so walking through the Underworld is like walking on the beach." I said.

"You're such a seaweed brain." She muttered.

I smirked, but it turned to horror as Annabeth almost stepped into the River Styx.

I grabbed her arm and pulled her away from the river.

"Probably not a good idea to go in there." I said.

Annabeth rolled her eyes. "You think?"

We both burst out laughing.

"Come on, we should get going." Annabeth said.

I nodded, and took her hand. We stared at each other for a moment, and I realized as she got older the more beautiful she got, but then she jarred me back to reality.

"Quest."

"Yeah," I said, and I found myself blushing.

We continued through the gloom for another five minutes before we saw Nico.

He was wearing all black, which made me shiver a bit. His black stygian sword hung at his side. I thought about drawing Riptide, but I decided against it. He was our friend, he wouldn't hurt us.

I stepped forward, and shook his hand. "Hey man, how's it going?"

Nico just stared at me like I'd just swallowed a shark.

"Umm, Nico," Annabeth said, putting her hand on my arm. "Why did you want to meet us here?"

Nico thought for a moment, and then turned to the Lethe. "I've been hearing things."

"Like what?" she asked softly.

"Bianca has been saying how a new threat is arising." He admitted.

"What threat?" Percy asked, suspicion rising in his voice.

"I'm not sure, but all she said was that there was a new threat, and to be prepared."

Annabeth bit her lip. "Is that all?"

"No." Nico said. "The real reason I brought you here was because of this."

He lunged forward, and pushed Annabeth straight into the River Lethe.

"ANNABETH!" I screamed.

I looked at Nico with pure loathing. I just about tackled him, but I restrained myself. I needed to help Annabeth first.

I plunged into the water, and darkness closed around me. I willed the water to not touch me as I went deeper, searching for her.

I swam downstream, and I saw her, floating in the water. I wrapped my arm around her waist, and willed us to go to the surface.

I gasped, and put Annabeth down on the bank. She wasn't moving.

"Annabeth! Come on, wake up!" I said as I stuffed some ambrosia into her mouth, and checked her heartbeat. She was still alive, but who knows if she still had her memory.

Oh gods, her memory. She might not even remember me. I shook the thought away and put my fingers to her throat.

Water from the Lethe gushed out of her mouth. She gasped, and slowly sat up, staring at me as she did.

"Who are you?"

Here is your question for the chapter:
