The Prince of time
Annabeth chase fell towards the ground, the wind howling around her. A few seconds ago, she had found herself enjoying the peace and comfort offered to first class passengers, especially because of the fact that she had been placed next to the cutest boy she had ever seen. Of course, the missing Percy Jackson was still the only boy on her mind, but even annabeth was allowed to flirt with a guy every now and then. That was until that very same boy had turned out to be Ares, greek god of war, violence and bloodshed. For some unknown reason, Ares had then attacked her claiming that killing her was the best way for him to acquire his revenge, but attempting to kill the head councillor of the Athena cabin was no easy feat as annabeth dodged a spear thrust which tore open the plane and decided to jump out of the plane so as to make sure that no-one else would end up getting hurt because of her fight with the war god. Now freefalling towards the ground, Annabeth allowed herself a momentary look behind her and cursed as the war god flew towards her, a vicious grin fixed across his face.
"If it's a fight you want, it's a fight you'll get," muttered annabeth silently as she spread both her arms and legs out wide to slow her descent and quickly withdrew the knife strapped across her back.
Ares laughed as he finally caught up to her and began thrusting madly at annabeth. Annabeth on the other hand attempted to strike back but the short reach of her knife was simply not enough and annabeth was forced to dodge around using the knife as a shield. The London skyline loomed directly below her and annabeth momentarily wondered what some of the mortals below would say if a 17 year old girl suddenly crashed onto the road.
"You are going to die daughter of Athena, and I shall bring your corpse to Athena herself and tear it to shreds before her very eyes," annabeth heard ares shout before wondering what she'd done to anger him in the first place.
With the ground quickly racing towards her and with Ares's spear thrust's getting closer and closer to hitting her, Annabeth did the only thing any demigod in need of help could do, she closed her eyes and prayed to her godly mother for help. Of course closing your eyes in front of a war god trying to kill you isn't the smartest of things to do as Ares quickly used that opportunity to smack her across the face, sending annabeth freefalling towards the ground at an even greater speed than before. Annabeth opened her eyes and felt a sudden warmth enveloping her, strengthening her. She then looked at her knife which began to glow with a soft gray colour and spun in midair so that her back would be facing the ground and so that she would be facing ares. Annabeth smiled at a confused ares and threw her knife towards him. The knife streaked towards ares leaving a golden trail of light as it tore through the air. Ares summoned a black shield out of thin air and placed it in front of him, but the knife tore through the shield as though the shield was made out of paper before impaling ares directly below his right eye. Ares roared out in pain, his roar creating a colossal shockwave destroying the windows of nearly every single building in the vicinity. Annabeth was sent crashing into the river Thames and attempted to swim but swimming in the river felt like trying to swim through quicksand. Eventually Annabeth found herself running out of breath and began drowning because of the lack of air. Yet moments before drowning, Annabeth caught sight of a boy swimming towards her at incredible speeds. He wore a purple shirt and his eyes shone brightly like pearls in the sea.
"Hold on," said the boy calmly as though speaking underwater was no extraordinary feat at all.
Annabeth attempted to stay awake as best as possible, but the lack of air proved too much for her to bear and a wave of darkness slowly washed over her.
