IM BACK! I know I promised this to you guys like two months ago, and I'm really sorry, so here it goes! I decided to get started because I was outraged when I read the preview of The Last Olympian. Rachel kisses Percy! I'm a Percabeth fan so I hated that… R&R.
"Percy!" Annabeth called from the kitchen "Do you want a drink?" I got up and came into the kitchen of the 2 room apartment Annabeth and I was sharing.
"I'll take a coke " I said grabbing a glass. I leaned down and kissed her. "We need to get our stuff packed for the trip to camp tomorrow." You see, my best friend Grover was getting married tomorrow, to a wood nymph called Juniper. My job being the best man, and Annabeth's being the Maid Of Honor had both of us nervous. Somehow, Grover didn't seem nervous at all when we talked to him. Unfortunately for me, I had only two more days of rest until I had to undertake my most important mission yet.
"I know." She sighed "I don't know why Grover doesn't have cold feet. It's the biggest decision he's ever made" She flopped down on the couch, and I flopped down right next to her. She leaned her head on my shoulder and sighed again. "I can't believe you have to go on this mission now. Even an experienced swordsman like you will have trouble with it. The last person to take this mission was Hercules!"
"I know you're worried about it" I said "However, this is something I have to do. If I had gotten my father to give me the trident sooner, none of this would have happened. I know I have some enemies amongst the gods. But if I do these favors, It could unite them with me, as well as helping me fight Prometheus."
"Well, as long as you know what you're doing" Annabeth sighed for a third time. She then drifted to sleep. I stared at the clock. It was 8:oo Pm. I drifted slowly off to sleep as well.
I ran through the maze of hallways as I heard the screams of a girl. 'Annabeth!' I thought. I increased my speed and sprinted down the hallway. I reached an open room and saw a man hooded in black with blades sprouting from his elbows and under his wrist with two long knives strapped to his waist. They glinted gold and silver and seemed familiar. Beneath him Annabeth was on the ground trying to crawl away from him. He picked her up his wrist blade extended. He plunged it into her stomach and she fell silent. The tall man turned and I could see his faint smile in the torch light.
'Percy, you've arrived. Finally a challenge worth my new body.' He lifted up the hood. It was… Luke!?
I woke up with a start in a cold sweat. I looked at the clock. It read 12:00. Annabeth looked up groggily. 'Thank the gods' I thought.
"What is it?" Annabeth asked sleepily.
"Just a dream" I whispered "Just a dream"
