Hi.
WELCOME TO MY SECOND STORY!
I hope you enjoy and if you haven't, read the first story because then this may not make any sense.
I hope you enjoy!
Disclaimer- Gods these things. Why am I doing these things again? Okay. I don't own this stories characters. I just own the plot line.
ANOUMCMENT- I'm getting a new set of POVs. The only ones that will be staying one-hundred percent is Percys, Annabeths, Malcolm. The rest no idea yet.
POV-Annabeth
"Hello!" I scream. "I'm not supposed to be in here!" I've been in this cell for hours and I don't know why.
I woke up and here I am, I've made the conclusion that I've been in here for a while but I don't remember why. And that annoying guy— Austin, I think, isn't helping.
"Annabeth they aren't coming!" The guy, Austin, yells at me. "Not until they know that whatever the heck they gave you actually worked. Or until they know your not playing some sort of trick on them. Please tell me your tricking them." I roll my eyes. Told you he is annoying. He keeps saying I know him, even though I've never met him.
"Annabeth you need to snap out of it." Austin begs. I roll my eyes again. He also keeps repeating that. He keeps telling me to try and remember. Remember what? All I know is, I went to sleep and here I am. I'm supposed to be on a cargo ship heading to see my brother Malcolm. But Austin keeps saying that it already happened. I think I would remember if that happened.
"Annabeth, don't you remember, uhh... Tyson!" Austin yells. He keeps yelling random names and describing them. I have met Piper though but she was kidnapped by a heartless pirate, the same one that destroyed my brothers soul. I haven't seen her in years because of him.
"I don't know anyone named Tyson!" I scream. "Guards! Please come and get me out of here! I don't know what I did!" I hear Austin scream in frustration.
"Well that's it." Austin laughs. "You're going to forget everything permanently and go back to believing a lie and everyone is going to go back to square one and we're going to have to start a war..." I frown. Why does that sound familiar. The part about a war. What war? And what lie am I going to believe.
I hear somethjng that comes in the direction of Austin cell. (I can't see him but he can see me.) It sounds like he's... crying? "You're going to break Percy heart. You know that right?" I blink a few times and think. Who's Percy? Why does that name sound familiar?
"I don't know who that is." I state back. "Who's Percy?" Now I don't hear anything. I hear shuffling and a clank of metal against stone.
"Percy! Your boyfriend!" Austin yells back desperately. "Come on you have to remember him! You did all the other times! Annabeth your scaring me, snap out of it!" I frown and try and think hard. Since when do I have a boyfriend?
Think, Annabeth. Think, Percy. Percy, percy, percy, percy? Percy Jackson? Perseus Jackson! Oh, him. I start laughing.
"You really think I'd date a heartless pirate!" I scream. I hear noises and banging.
"that's it, we're doomed." I barley hear Austin whisper in defeat. I roll my eyes and go on banging the bars and yelling to get out.
But I keep thinking about what Austin said. I remembered him all the other times? My boyfriend? Perseus?
For the love of Zeus! It's Percy! He doesn't like being called Perseys!
I try and remember whatever Austin wants to remember. Percy? Percy? Percy? Percy?
A small imagine comes to my head. It's someone's bare back. I shiver when I remember the long white scars on it.
"Did Percy?— have scars on his back." I ask. The image starts to move and a shirt starts to cover the back and the person turns around. He has black hair, it's long and messy, he has tanned skin and he has strong muscled arms. I ask Austin if Percy is all that I see in this image. Austin won't say anything, though.
But before I could go any father the image disappears. It's replaced by something horrifying. It's the same guy, maybe Percy?— he has his head in a pillow sobbing his eyes out. A different memory comes, it's the same thing but he's sobbing into my shoulder, gripping me like I'm his last hope.
Then it's the same guy, he's laying down on his stomach. A pool of blood next to him, surrounded by wooden boxes.
My heart rate picks up as memories start to slowly come back. I woke up in a dark room, with a window looking out at a distorted look city and Percy sleeping on the floor next to me. The same guy putting on a pirate looking hat. It keeps going like miniature plays. They all seem to have this one guy in all of them. Till it gets to one, I'm tied up and so is a lot of other people around me. There are people around us untied. They all look familiar.
But one stands out. It's the guy, he is staring at me like I'm a goddess. Not in the way that I'm pretty or he's head over heels, in a way that I'm very rare and that he's the just the person he needs.
What makes my heart stop in my real self is when my past self looks at his eyes. Sea green, beautiful sea green with the colors rolling around and moving like wave in the sea.
I blink a few times as all my memories comes racing back. Percy. The ship. That stupid Doctor!
"Austin!" I yell to the bars. "I remember. Percy has sea green eyes. The ship! The doctor! I remember!" I hear Austin yell a yes.
"Annabeth I thought you'd never snap out of it!" He shouts back with pure relief. I hate that doctor, he keeps coming who knows how many times a day or week. He makes me drink something against my will and this happens. I forget everything and it's starting to scare me.
The amount of time I don't remember is getting longer and this time I even forgot who the heck Percy is. It also doesn't help that after each doctor visits and after I remember everything some of the memories I have are getting fuzzier and fuzzier. Last time I had trouble remembering what calypso looked like. And now I'm having trouble remembering Rachel and Frank.
I get up and start pacing my cell. I can't remember Calypso or Rachel or Frank. I just know there names. Arggg, snap out of it Annabeth!
I scream in frustration and a few tears slide down my face. I just can't remember their faces or their voices.
"Austin we need to get out of here!" I yell desperately. I slump against the wall and I start to cry. "Before I forget everything." I whisper to myself.
I sit down on my bed and look at the stone ceiling.
"The amount of time is getting longer, Austin." I say barley loud enough for him to hear. I had another doctor visit and it took me forever to remember my time on the ship. Now I cant remember Frank, Rachel, calypso, Katie, Juniper at all. Sometimes I question if they even exist. Then I can't remember what, Grover, the Stolls, or Clarrise looks like. And most of my memories are slowly fading or completely gone. The only memories that seem to still be in full affect are all, what I would say, areimportant moments I had with Percy. Who knows how long till they start going away too.
I hear a large door close and I snap back up to prepare for another doctor visit. Not again. Instead I see Luke.
He has a wicked smile on his face. But there are things that wasn't there the last time I saw him. He has a large cut on his neck and bruises line his face. That makes me smile.
"Well look what the cat dragged in." I hear Austin yell with pure disgust. "A dead rat!" Luke glares in Austin cells direction. "Your glares don't scare me Luke! You kind of lose that fear of glares after you meet percy!" Luke growls and looks back at me with that crooked smile.
"Hello Annabeth." He says sweetly. "I'm going to ask you again. Will you marry me." I growl back at him.
"I'd rather marry a stick!" I yell at him. "At least it'd have a heart." Luke shakes his head in disbelief and disgust.
"It's because of Perseus." He mutters. I roll my eyes.
"Unlike you Luke," I growl back. "He is kind and sweet and is the best person in the world. He makes me feel like I'm not an idiot for believing your lies. Yes it's because of him! Of course it's because of him!" Luke shakes his head and that evil smile come onto his face.
"Percy been taken care of Annabeth." He whispers harshly. "You might as well say goodbye to your fantasy." My heart stops. My hands start to shake and I run to the bars.
"What did you do." I ask. Luke smiles then leaves. "Luke! What did you do to him! What did you do! You monster! What did you do!" I hear Luke chuckle and I feel tears running down me face. "What did you do!"
POV- Reyna
I keep write my letter to Percy as fast as I can. I've been chosen to write to him but I'm nervous. I have to send it to a city, not in Athens and Percy mostly docks in Athens. I don't know when he'll get the letter.
"Reyna," I hear one of my guards say. "The first group of guards and Knights are here." I nod and tell them to send them in. I'm still in Dionysus palace, everyone is but we are staying here for the time being. Dionysus and I have been elected to separate the guards and Knights sense, we know about this type of thing best.
I nervous for Annabeth and Austin. I'm don't know how in the world they'll get out, and I'm scared that Annabeth will forget everything. Brainwash her into believing none of it happened. Most likely Percy already found out and it must be crushing him. He must on end worried about her.
A small knock draws me away from my letter and I yell for whoever it is to come in. A small guard, comes in he looks nervous.
I tell him that everything is okay. He nods and ask me why I was called to him.
"I have a question." I state. "Finish this sentence. We may be pirates..." I motion my hand to him and his eyes light up.
"But we are not evil." He smiles and takes a breath of relief. I nod and tell him to go to Dionysus room. He nods and leaves. Another comes from in and he answers instantly. Another, a girl this time, answers. But after that, most of them look at me weird and some guess. Some don't answer the next question and say they have no idea. I tell them to visit Hestias room. (Who lives with Dionysus) while some snort and say of course.
I tell them to go to the dungeon and look for Hades. They look at me weirdly and nod then leave.
After that round comes and goes I get back to my letter.
That was the first round of the day. We've been doing this for five days now and I never realized how little guards are loyal to Frederick. Most are with Percy. It's amazing.
POV- Percy
I lay in bed, not really doing anything.
Ever since the last time we saw Luke, and I heard of Annabeths betrayal, the nightmares seem to be getting more frequent and worse. I can't get five minutes of rest without waking up crying anymore. The crew is worried about me and are locking me in my room to rest but it seem everytime I go to sleep, I wake up more tired.
I'm just exhausted and sometimes I wish Annabeth was here. Thalia claims that the next she seems Annabeth, she'll kill her but I don't want that. I just want to know why? Why did she do that, why did she play with my feelings, like Luke did with Thalia.
I hug my pillow close and some tears slip.
Thalia and Jason agree with me. We have to start a rebellion. And force Frederick out of the throne room and Thalia has been writing all the letters to everyone, telling them of what's going on. But the thought is scaring me more than ever. I don't want to hurt anyone, that not what I wanted to do. Especially since I may have to hurt Annabeth, I think if it came down to that, I don't think I could.
Im a mess if you couldn't tell and I'm not really sure if I will be able to get my head back on straight. My mind is in a billion different places and the lack of sleep and the panic is only making it worse.
Even though my heart is beating quickly and my mind is a jumbles mess. My eyes start to droop and I soon fall asleep.
That it for know.
I know I'm all over the place and I wouldn't be surprised if you guys are confused. But I don't know. It makes since for everything to be confusing to me. Plus I kind of wanted you guys to see, the how the ships doing, how Annabeth is doing and how the whole separating the guards are going. Don't get used to Reyna because I don't think I'll use her very much after today.
And I'm sorry that it's so short!
I hope you have enjoyed. I understand this is a let down. But it was the only thing I'd thought fit everything. Sorry for any mistakes.
Bye
