The Mark Of Annabeth Version #1

Chapter 1

Annabeth

We fell down, hard, still holding hands, breathing in the fact that we were both here alive but only to fall into Tartarus. Still falling, I felt guilt wash over me. How could I let this happen? Why did I drag Percy into this? I felt myself stop to a halt, I guess there is an end to this "bottomless pit." "Hey, are you okay?" Percy asked. We both fell, flat on our backs. I winced with pain as I felt my broken ankle, "I'm fine", I managed. I saw a concerned look washed over his face, despite everything we've been through, I couldn't help crack a smile. "I'm fine", I said again. Trying to ignore the pain in my leg, I stood up … but only to fall back down, hard. "That's reassuring", Percy muttered.
