Hello. This is Cat. I know... Owl does Percy Jackson stories most of the time... but I thought, why don't I try to write one? It's probally really bad... So yeah. Start Reading.

Dr Chase was worrying.

He and his daughter, Annabeth, had decided to keep in touch this year, hoping they can try and get to know each others lives better. But Annabeth hadn't sent a letter in a long time.

This was troubling. Annabeth always was on time, she never stopped. EVER. He would not doubt that even if she was in the middle of another war, she would write.

Sitting down, Dr Chase looked at one of his favourite letters from her, reading it again.

Hey Dad!

I have had one of the BEST weeks in my life!

Do you remember Percy Jackson? Finally the seaweed brain did something right for a change. He finally kissed me.

It has been the best week, children of Athena are meant to hate children of Poseidon, but yet here we are!

How have you been?

Annabeth

Attached to this letter was a picture of Annabeth and Percy, Percy's arm was on top of Annabeth's shoulder and they were both smiling.

Dr Chase smiled at the letter, when he had first read it, he was slightly protective. But after remembering so much about that boy, he had no doubt in him that he would protect Annabeth with a passion.

Letting his head slip into his hand, he looked at the door with longing. The mail was due any minute, but he could only hope that his daughter had sent a letter.

He waited.

The mail arrived, and he walked slowly to the door, picking it up gingerly, he walked back slowly, just in case Annabeth had sent a letter, he didn't want to damage it.

Looking through the pile, he spotted it. A small white envelope, with a bronzish writing on it, Annabeth's letter.

He opened it, but what he found inside was not what he was expecting.

Yes, a letter was in it. But it was tear stained and some of the ink had run, but the writing was still readable.

Dad,

I'm sorry for not writing, but I have had problems.

Percy *Tear mark* has been missing for weeks. Presumed dead. I haven't been able to think, *Tear mark*.

He just disappeared, into thin air, perhaps in his case, shallow water *Tear mark* He was just gone one morning, nothing to say were he had gone, or who had taken him.

I want to be with him, I can't stand it… *Tear mark*

Annabeth

His Annabeth was strong, but this was overbearing her. He wanted to ran over to camp and give her a huge hug. But he knew he couldn't, so he did the best he could, he wrote back.

Annabeth,

I was getting so worried!

Don't worry, I'm sure he'll turn up soon, he's Percy, and even I know what he's like. From what you told me, he took the weight of the sky off you, he'll be OK. I just hope people will keep searching.

You don't need to answer this letter if you don't want to. Search for him, it'll be OK.

Dad

He sent the letter on it's way.

Argo II

Everybody was crying, Percy and Annabeth, gone. Even Nico looked like he wanted to curl into a ball and die, and a child of Hades doesn't do that.

Piper said a thing that shocked everybody to the bone "What are we going to tell their mortal parents?"

Jason looked at her "I don't know."

Piper got up and left the room, still sobbing, Annabeth had told her, if something happened to her too open the box on her bedside.

Entering Annabeth's old room, Piper opened the bronze box, inside were letters, all from what looked like her father.

Piper looked at the address, then made her way to the Stables, where apparently Blackjack had spent the night.

"Hey Blackjack" She said quietly, Blackjack looked up, Piper could swear he was crying "I need you do you something with me. I need to visit to places, could you help? Annabeth's and Percy's houses? To… you know, tell them?"

Blackjack looked at her, then stood up slowly and let her climb on, she started off for Annabeth's first. Letting the others on the Argo see her fly past the windows.

Annabeth's home

Dr Chase let his eyes wander to the windows, he felt like something was coming, and he didn't want to miss it. Luck took him to the right place in the sky.

A black dot was flying, it looked like one of those pegsi he had seen before.

The horse landed, it's wings high up above it's head, it then pulled them down, and a girl got off, she had tannish skin and her eyes looked a little puffy.

"Dr Chase?" She asked, He nodded "I'm Piper."

He looked at her "Why are you here?" He asked, his mind still not understanding.

"I'm sorry, but Annabeth is presumed dead. She has fallen, with Percy into Tartarus. I'm…" She started to sob "I'm… I'm sorry."

What did you think? I know it wasn't amazing... but any thoughts? Remember, this was only a One-Shot. But, I can post a Bouns Chapter about when Percy's Mom and Paul are told. If you want...

Thanks for reading. Review or/and PM me.
