My Achilles Heel

by etaylor-10

SPOILERS! If you haven't read MoA I wouldn't read this! And for those of you who have read MoA and suffered Uncle Rick's major trolling, this is something that I thought could happen to Percy and Annabeth. And pray to the Gods that it never happens! I apologize for the useless summary but I'm not sure how to summarize my fanifc. (please read the AN at the top)

1. Chapter 1

Ok so I apologize for any grammatical errors. And if you haven't read MoA i suggest that you don't read this. I also changed the Achilles heel thing. Just for the sake of the story.

Ok I'm gonna stop talking now.

Percy's POV:

Tartarus was worse than I could have ever imagined, but what I hated the most was seeing Annabeth in so much pain. She would wake up screaming and drenched in sweat and there was absolutely nothing that I could do to help her! Gods! I hated feeling like that.

I was starting to feel drowsy so I started to shake Annabeth awake so that she could take over for a bit. Suddenly I heard an ear piercing roar that I recognized instantly. The Minotaur.

Oh come on! Could I never get a break! I'm in Tartarus for the Gods sake!

Realizing that I was just talking to myself I woke up Annabeth, grabbed what little gear we had, and started running while dragging a half awake Annabeth behind me. I had no idea were the Hades I was running to, but I just wanted to get Annabeth to safety. The Minotaur was catching up to us and fast.

Before I knew it, I was being grabbed from behind and flung back down against the cold floor. I tried to breath but it was painful. All I could do was hear Annabeth yelling my name. Knowing that I had no other choice I hauled myself up off the ground and began to fight the ugly monster. I don't know how long we were fighting for but I was starting to slow down, and so was Annabeth. I was about to attack again when I saw something out of the corner of my eye. The Minotaur was about to swing his axe at Annabeth. I ran over to her as fast as my legs would take me but before I could process what I was doing I felt immense pain coming from the small of my back and I immediately knew what happened.

The axe had hit the small of my back. It hit my Achilles heel.

The pain was like nothing I had experienced before. It was indescribable. But as soon as I felt the pain subsiding I knew what was happening.

I was dying.

PLEASE DON'T KILL ME! You can thank my friends for this. We're always talking about what could happen while Percy & Annabeth are in Tartarus, & one friend mentioned the Minotaur. So this can to mind. If you want a second chapter tell me. I already have it written down. But i won't post it if no one likes my story.

So PLEASE review!
