What P&A Thought While Falling

~ Percy POV ~

There was only darkness. Everywhere, all around me. I faintly remember letting go of that ledge, but nothing seemed to have happened after that. It felt like ages since Annabeth had said a word. But she was still there, i could feel her hand in mine.. I was so stupid! I just jumped into stinking TARTARUS! I felt like I had just sent Annabeth and I to our dooms, we didn't have a clue what we were doing, and for once, i was sure that Annabeth didn't have a plan. "Hey Wise Girl, you dead or something, or just thinking?!" I said solemnly. "Seaweedbrain SHUT UP! I'm trying to think!" she called back. We were falling into an endless pit of darkness and she still had the guts to yell at me. Yup, that's Annabeth for ya.

If we got down there, EVER. Than maybe we could... Nope never mind. Or maybe... No, that won't work either. What about... "THIS IS HOPELESS!" I screamed. Percy's hand squeezed mine and I instantly relaxed. Maybe this wasn't so bad. If we died, at least we'd die together, as heroes. But then I thought of all the things we never got to do, everything we didn't get to see. Rachel told me a secret long ago, that Percy and I, that we would at sometime, get married, and have children. A girl and a boy. She told me that their names would be, Thalia, and Charles. I knew, right when she said it, that that was exactly what we would name them. She told me that Thalia would have blond shaggy hair and aqua eyes, and that Charles would have Black curly hair and grey eyes. I didn't know how the whole half-blood thing would work, but I guess that I'd have to ask Chiron. That thought gave me hope. If Rachel had seen a vision, than that meant that Percy and I would get out of this alive... I kept thinking of new ways to survive, knowing that Percy or I would obviously think of something.
