I just felt depressed after reading a story called 'All At Once' by Blaze of Awesome Glory. I was thinking of writing this a few months later, but my heart really wants to write something depressing. I hope you like. R&R. Annabeth and Percy are 17 on this and Percy had built a strong bond with Annabeth's mortal brothers. Annabeth's POV

If Percy died...

How could this be?

How could this have happened?

How could I have allowed it?

How could I have been so stupid to have screamed?

How?

How?!

HOW?!

Everything went wrong. This wasn't supposed to end like this.

He promised.

What would I tell Sally?

How would I tell her?

I broke my promise to Chiron.

Why hasn't the River Styx sent a bolt of lighting to kill me?

Maybe this is my torture for letting him die.

Having to live with the fact that he wont hold me in his arms again.

Having to live with the fact that I wouldn't see him smile again.

Having to live with the fact that he wouldn't call me wise girl again.

Having to live with the fact that he wont be waiting at the beach for me so we can have a free day from everything.

Having to live with the fact that I wont kiss his salty lips and wont smell the ocean scent that his body gave off.

Having to live with the fact that he would never kiss me awake.

Having to live with the fact that I wont hear him joke about my addiction to Architecture.

Having to live with the fact that it's my fault he died.

All that is worse than death.

How could this have happened to us. We survived literal Hell, yet he died because of a stupid Telekhine.

Why did I scream for help?

Why did I make him turn around?

I called for reinforcements, but they never got here.

I sat on the concrete with Percy's head above my chest. Hugging him. Hoping that he would come back to me. Hoping that he was just playing a stupid trick.

I knew that was impossible.

He couldn't hold his breath for three minutes, much less thirty.

Even in his last seconds he joked.

He put a hand on my cheek and said 'huh, what do you know, the unbeatable son of Poseidon has been beaten." He had given me a sad grin, then he started coughing violently.

I had responded. "Stop joking around seaweed brain," I sniffed and wiped a tear of my cheek. "You are going to be alright, I Iris massaged Thalia and Will, they should be here any second now."

He smiled sadly. I had put my hand on top of his hand which was resting on my cheek.

"Annbeth." He had whispered.

"Yeah."

"Could I get one last kiss?"

I leaned down and kissed him. "What do you mean last? Remember, you promised to stay with me till you annoyed me to death. Remember, you were the one who had the idea of growing up, getting married, have a family, and grow old together. Remember, you were the one who gave me the promise ring." I cried.

"I'm sorry." He had apologized.

"Sorry for what?"

"For making all of that up, not knowing if I would really get the chance to do all that with you." He looked straight into my eyes with a sad look. "Tell my mom I love her."

"You didn't make it up."

"I love you." with those last words, Percy's hand had gone numb inside of mine.

"Percy."

I had gotten no response.

"Percy, come on."

Nothing.

"Percy stop kidding around, this isn't funny."

He showed no signs he was alive. No movement. His chest had stopped moving completely and he was completely pale.

"Percy!"I had screamed.

No response what so ever.

I sat there for thirty minutes waiting for someone to get here and tell me he was kidding, and only playing a prank on me, but in those thirty minutes no one came.

Finally after five more minutes passed, I heard wheels screech to a stop, and I saw a bunch of shadows formed a figure on one of the walls in the alley I was in.

"Annabeth! Percy!" I heard Thalia's voice call from the other side of the wall.

I looked at the shadows "Annbeth, Percy-" Nico stood in front of me completely shocked.

"Please tell me it's a sick joke." Nico pleaded. "Please tell me that the ringing in my ears was someone else."

I looked down and nodded my head in a no gesture.

"Annabeth-" Thalia's voice slowly faded.

"Thalia, did you find them?" I heard Will's voice. "Oh gods, please tell me he is only unconscious."

I nodded my head and cried as I hugged his head tighter to my body.

After a long moment of silence, Will spoke with a shaky voice. "Nico, help me get Percy's body in the van, Thalia get Annabeth."

I felt a hand on top of mine, trying to untie my hands which were locking Percy's head above my chest.

"Come on, Annabeth, get up."

I nodded my head.

"Come on, Annie. We need to get Percy's body to camp."

"No." I cried. "I want to stay next to him."

"Alright, come on Annabeth, help us get him in the van."

I nodded and slowly got up, lifting Percy's body with Nico's and Will's help.

As soon as we had put Percy's body in the backseat of the van, Nico put and hand on Thalia's and my arm. He closed his eyes and the shadows clouded around us. Before I could say anything, the shadows engulfed us and the next thing I knew, I was in San Francisco, California, in front of my dad's house.

"What?" I looked around, then I looked at Nico, but he was gone as soon as I turned to look at him.

"Thalia, what are we doing here?"

"Come on."

"Thalia, answer me."

She knocked on the door.

"Thalia..."

"Just come on." She grabbed my wrist and pulled me towards her. Thalia wrapped and arm around my body, and I'll tell you, for a 5'2 girl she was pretty strong.

"Thalia let go of me."

"I'm sorry Annabeth, but I'll explain everything later." I felt a jolt of pain on my neck and my eyes rolled to the back of my head.

The last thing I heard before I closed my eyes was my dad's worried voice. "Oh gods, is she alright?"

So guys, just so you know, this is only the first chapter. You expect about 5-10 more. I am not sure yet. Tell me if Should continue it.
