This is my first songfic and just came to me while reading some PJO fics and listening to music.

PS From now on each review must have AT LEAST some minor criticism.

I will make this as idiot proof as possible: Me no owny Percy Jackson and the Olympians. Not the plot, not the characters, not the settings. Nothing! Not even the song Miley Cyrus Bottom of the Ocean from the Breakout album


I took the knife for him. A knife that was poisoned, too. It was stupid, I know, but I did it for the safety of Percy. I was sitting on a lounge chair with Silena dabbing my head with a cool cloth while Will worked his magic. I was paling, my breath becoming shallow and I was burning up. I knew I was dieing. The last thing I remembered was Silena leaving then I blacked out. I heard voices in my head. They sounded familiar… the fates! They gave me a choice. Something they have never done before. They gave me the life or death choice. Live with all the pain or die and it would be all over. I didn't know what to choose so I tried to put myself in Percy's shoes. That plan worked almost too well.

I fell into a dream-state where instead it was Percy dieing, not me. He was so pale a piece of paper would have stood out against him. His breath was getting shallower by the second. I held on to him tightly as if that would keep him alive. Then his heart stopped all together. I cried for hours, even while fighting.

The scene changed before I could get the result of the war. Even the time has changed. Flashed-forward, life was much different

It was August 17th at the Plaza Hotel. Every year I came back to the same room at the same hotel on the same day. The room had a giant hole in the wall and roof for ten years. No matter how many times the ownership changed, how many people that wanted to fix the hole they all ended up deciding against it and never knew why. But that was just Mortals. Most demigods knew that this was the Three Big Graves: where all the children of the Big Three that were alive at the time were put into eternal rest. I looked through her playlist and found the song. It was the same song I've been listening to every time I cane here or thought about Percy. It was also my most viewed song. The song was so true to my life that I could have wrote it myself.

It's been in the past for a while
I get a flash and I smile
Am I crazy?
Still miss you baby

After ten years I still miss him. Love him. And he didn't even know how I really, truly felt about him.

It was real, it was right
But it burned too hot to survive
All that's left is
All these ashes

After Percy died we weren't fighting our strongest. Then one night Greek fire got its way into the room we were in. It killed the rest of the Big Three kids.

Where does the love go?
I don't know
When it's all said and done
How could I be losing you forever?
After all the time we spent together

Now there was nothing I can do about it. He's gone. It's over.

I have to know why
I had to lose you
Now you've just become
Like everything I'll never find again
At the bottom of the ocean

No more fish in the sea. None as special as him.

Do do do
Do do do do
Do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do

In a dream you appeared
For a while you were here
So I keep sleeping
Just to keep you with me

That didn't work. I always woke up eventually.

I'll draw a map
Connect the dots
With all the memories that I've got
What I'm missing
I'll keep re-living

Where does the love go?
I don't know
When it's all said and done
How could I be losing you forever?
After all the time we spent together

I have to know why
I had to lose you
Now you've just become
Like everything I'll never find again
At the bottom of the ocean

This is it.
Let go
Breathe

You don't have to love me
For me to, baby, ever understand
Just know I love the time that we both had
And I don't ever want to see you sad, be happy
Cause I don't want to hold you
If you don't want to tell me you love me babe
Just know I'm gonna have to walk away
I'll be big enough for both of us to say, be happy
this part never really sunk in.
Do do do
Do do do do (be happy)
Do do do do do do do (be happy)
Do do do do do do do
Be happy

I couldn't handle not being with Percy. Then I realized that this wasn't actually happening. But if I chose death, what I just went through, would be the same for him. The fates have been sending me fake memories so I could make the right choice. I opened my eyes and saw Percy sigh with relief. I sighed with relief too. He was alive, I was alive and we still had the chance save the world properly.

"You're alive!" I said smiling.

"I'm alive? You're the one with a giant cut on your arm" Percy said. "Why did you take that knife?"


Extra sutff:

The "Lesson" was how Percy felt about Annabeth

To a Mortal that scene would be under one minute because the "Lesson" part was in an area that time went WAAYYYYYYYYY faster (aka. made in frozen time)

I forgot some things so I had to re-post

I used the Last Olympian as a major guide
