Takes place a few months after the end of Heroes of Olympus
Thanks for sticking with me I know the confusion is great in this situation sorry thanks for sticking with me and thanks for the follows and the favorite!
Annabeth missed dinner and I hadn't seen her all day so I decide to ask around if anyone's seen her. Piper thinks she saw Annabeth head for the woods so that's where I look. I search and search as the light fades. I get more and more worried that something awful happened to her. After an hour I have to rest and regain some energy. After I pause I hear crying nearby I immediately know it's Annabeth. So I run to where I thought I heard the sound coming from, my mind is running through a million scenarios none of then good ones. I finally find her hiding behind a large tree.
"Annabeth?" I ask quietly. She's shaking with tears. I see blood on her arms and her dagger in her hand. I quickly run to her and wrap my arms around her so tightly she can't do anything.
"Annabeth..." I tell her firmly. The poor girl is shaking so hard.
"I I...you weren't supposed to know Percy..."
I speak softly in her ear as I take her dagger away from her hands and slide it away from her, she doesn't fight it. "Hey it's ok I'm here now..." I continue to murmur calming words to her when I remember a song that that she's always loved and I start to sing it. "You are my sunshine... my only sunshine you make me happy... when skies are gray" I see her arms clearly now dozens of cuts up and down both of her forearms it kills me. "...you'll never know dear how much I love you...please don't take my sunshine away..." My voice continually cracks but it seems to calm her. Slowly she's trembles less and less. I don't know how long I'm holding her but I slowly loosen my grip on her as she calms down. I turn her around to look at me. "Annabeth I'm so sorry this is my fault. I should've realized how you were feeling and and..." I start to cry as I hold her, it's so hard to see her in pain like this. She seems numb to everything. My thoughts swirl everywhere...it's all your fault... You should've been there... what an idiot for believing the scars were from an accident...why weren't you here earlier...
"Percy I'm sorry..." Annabeth says quietly," I'm sorry I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." is all she said over and over. I stand up and pick her up off the ground bridal-style.
"It's ok Annabeth it's ok." I continue to repeat to her as I take her back to camp. It's the middle of the night now the moon is barely shining. She starts to drift off I start to let her when I realize just how much blood she might've lost. If she falls asleep she may not wake up. I run back to camp as fast as I can making sure Annabeth stays awake. When I break through the trees I go straight to the infirmary and run inside to find Will sitting at a desk doing work. He looks up and when he sees Annabeth in my arms his eyes widen.
"What's goi- it doesn't matter bring here over here." I set her down on a bed while Will grabs nectar and the necessary tools for stitches. I know I'm in for a long night.
