Hello all my lovely readers!

New story inspired by prompt where after the fifth book Percy wakes up to find out he's been in a coma since he was twelve and is devastated to find out Annabeth wasn't real.

Well this is a lot nicer than that.

Love to hear what you think.

Aboard the Argo II the air was cool and breeze soft, headed for Greece with Leo at the wheel, Jason walking around deck with Piper, Hazel and Frank somewhere else. But as Percy and Annabeth took the night shift they were laying down in Percy's cabin, unable to sleep Annabeth read a book while Percy twirled her gray strand of hair.

"You're really distracting, you know that?" she said quietly.

"Kinda my goal, we don't have a Hedge to nag at us and threaten to but bells around our necks anymore."

"Seaweed brain," she mutters, he kisses her cheek.

"Your seaweed brain, and quite proud of it." She turned her head and kissed him on the lips, and it ended up lasting a few minutes and them breathless.

"We really should try to get some sleep." He nods and snuggles into her as she pulled up the sheets. With his face in her hair, smelling her lemon citrus shampoo he relaxed enough to get some sleep.

They were abruptly woken up with the rocking of the ship and the alarm going off, they reacted by jumping out of bed grabbing armor and weapons that were scattered around the room and running up to the main deck. On the deck was a mess, crates were all over the place, Buford the Table was running around, a sail came down. Percy ran up to Leo with Annabeth close behind where he was trying to get the ship level again.

"Leo what the Hades is going on?" Percy said as he tried to remain balanced at the helm.

"I have no clue! One minute smooth sailing then the ship began rocking and stuff we can't see kept knocking the others down even Frank who when all Ape."

"Any ideas how to stop them?" Percy asked.

"Not off the top of my head, if they were wind spirits then Jason would be able to fight them, I'm not sure at the moment,"

"We'll figure it out, we've faced bigger problems," He squeezed her hand in reassurance, "Let's get everyone down so they don't get anymore hurt, Jason can probably help balance out the ship, maybe they'll leave once we get out of this area."

"That might work, let's do it." She replied and they ran to the deck, Percy called out to Jason and the others trying to give them some kind of direction. After they acknowledged his plan they started to move around, Jason trying to help balance the ship.

Probably all of the beings that were attacking the ship suddenly stopped, you could see a faint outline of them. They all rushed at Percy who had little chance to protect himself from them. They felt cold against his skin, as they hit Percy like a battering ram the wind was knocked out of him and he ended up on his back unable to move, to breathe, he couldn't fight back as much as he wanted to, as much as he wanted to protect Annabeth, who stood in horror as he remained on the deck still.

He was fading, the edges of his vision were turning black. He began to feel so cold like he was in a piece of ice, that feeling crawling to consume his whole body. He stared at the sky for what felt like hours, then Annabeth was all he could see her warm hands on either side of his face. Her eyes full of unshed tears, he wanted so desperately to hold her and wipe away those tears and make her feel safe, tell her that he's not going anywhere, not again, not ever.

"No, no, Percy stay with me, wake up, Percy stay with me, please, wake up, wake up, Percy please, don't leave me," She began to say franticly and urgently, it was after she said that did he realize that he closed his eyes and say nothing but darkness, he could no longer feel her warm hands or smell her signature lemon citrus scent. She continued to plead for him to wake up, but he slipped farther and farther into the darkness. Until he felt like he was starting to emerge.

"Percy, Percy, come on Perce, wake up. Get your sorry but out of bed." That wasn't Annabeth, that was someone else entirely, it was familiar but a voice he hasn't heard in a while. Feeling started to come back to his limbs, that's when he felt someone shaking his shoulder. After all he's been through his first instinct was to attack. He didn't even have complete control of his body yet but he felt himself launch out of the soft bed and pin whoever was touching him to the floor, all of felt like an out of body experience, his eyes weren't even open yet. "Perce! What the heck?!" That's when he opened his eyes and immediately regretted it.

"Grover?"

What do you think? Please tell me!
