The first time Annabeth was alive, she didn't think anything of it. She had no recollection of any past lives, if that even existed, nor did she even speculate whether she'd be alive again. It was something that never crossed the demigod's mind.
The second time, however, was very interesting, and, well, bizzare, to say the least.
She remembered passing away peacefully in her home when she was 83 years old, with her two children at her side. Percy had passed just the year before. Although this was devastating, she was glad it wasn't the other way around. Annabeth figured her partner would have taken it much harder than she had.
Annabeth had been thinking about want the underworld would be like on the few days before her death. Would Percy be there? Would she go to Elysium? Both questions were ridiculous to her, she knew the answers would be yes. But Annabeth couldn't help but speculate.
It's one thing to think about the Underworld, and its another to actually be there. However, its another to be dead and awaiting your fate. Yet, Annabeth wouldn't know what this was like, because she didn't go to the Underworld after her passing. She was simply reborn.
This immediately caused panic. She felt a doctor's wet, slimy hands caress her gently as she had just come out of her mother's womb. Unable to open her eyes, speak, or do much of anything, really, Annabeth, (was that still her name?) Did the only thing she could. She cried. And she cried as loud as she could, with, as she thought, no good explanation to be honest. Annabeth Chase was just reborn and she was crying? This was a miracle! Right?
After years had passed, Annabeth had re-learned how to walk, talk, move around, write, and all that fundamental stuff. Yet one thing had been there from the start, of course, her memories.
Coincidentally, her name was the exact same from her previous life. She looked exactly the same. Annabeth found no difference at all between her past life and the present. Except for the fact that this time, of course, she was born in 2076, was now left handed, and had been born in New York.
This raised some suspicion. What if Percy had been born in New York? Had he been reborn at all? If so, did her remember like she did? Would he look the same?
All of this was so weird. She felt like an old woman trapped in a kids body. Perhaps, this is because she was.
At the age of 5, (wouldn't she technically be 88?) Annabeth started Kindergarten. She met a young boy named Perseus Jackson.
So what do you guys think so far? This story idea kinda just popped up in my head so I hope you guys like it. Feel free to leave suggestions and stuff in the comments...
