"Annabeth!"

Percy whipped his head around, looking for her after the battle. Last he had seen her, she was battling a hell-hound.

He kept calling her name franticly, trying to find her. His eye caught a glimpse of golden hair, glinting in the sun, and his heart stopped. He ran over to it, and froze, filled with dread.

She lay on the ground, blood glistening on her torso. Her chest moved slowly up and raggedly up and down, her breaths painfully hoarse. Percy ran to her side, and her eyes fluttered open.

"H-hey, seaweed brain" she whispered, a faint smile on her lips.

Percy choked down a sob, and tears ran down his cheeks. "Hang on, ok? Just hang on till they get here" he whispered, brushing the hair out of her eyes.

She shook her head, and said "I can't, i-its coming closer, the light..." She exhaled, and her body went limp.

Percy stared at her, stunned. Then he yelled "NO!" Bending over her body, the tears ran down his face and he yelled, his voice filled with anger and hate. Sobbing, he picked up her broken body, and held it, rocking back and forth.

His shoulders shook, and he yelled again, shouting "No! NO!" His yells slowed down, till he was silent, holding her. He stood up, tears rolling down his cheeks like sparkling gems.

Anger glittered in his eyes. "I swear" he growled "I'll kill every last monster, no matter how any times they come back, I will kill them. You hear me!? EVERY LAST ONE!" He yells, pacing back and forth.

"Every. Single. One."
