Percy woke up to a knock on his cabin door. "Percy, we need to talk" Chiron said as the door was opened and Percy saw a sad look on his mentors face. "What's wrong Chiron, is it Annabeth?"

"No, it's not her. It's Blackjack, I believe he is on his last breath." Shocked, Percy ran to the stables. There he saw a certain black stallion kneeling down. "Hey, b- boss…" Blackjack wheezed as Percy looked at his wings and saw that they were drooping and losing their color.

Over the years, Blackjack had lost his altitude, speed, and been out of breath quicker. "Hey buddy, how are you feeling?" Percy asked, petting his mane and giving him sugar cubes.

"Not to good boss, can we get some doughnuts?" Percy smiled and petted him more as he splashed some water on him to cool him off. "Sure, I'll see if the Hermes kids can sneak us some in." He said as he went up and left to see if any of the Stroll twins could get doughnuts.

Little did he know that he could not deliver his promise in time. "Thank you boss for rescuing me from that ship, for being my friend, thank you for everything… Percy. It has been an honor." With his final breath, Blackjack shed a tear for his rider as the Pegsi were whining for their loss of a comrade.

-Later-

At the foot of the stalls, he dropped the box of doughnuts. Tears ran down his face as Percy ran to Blackjack, being covered by the wings of the Pegsi. Unable to control his emotions upon the loss of his dear friend, the grounds at camp shook vigorously, and the sea at the beach began to turn and rumble, swallowing canoes, and everything in her path.

After getting most of his tears of his system, Percy petted his friend one last time and kissing his forehead as he hugged his arms around Blackjack neck. His eyes remained closed, until he heard the voice of his father "I will give him a proper burial if you want son." The Pegsi kneeled in front of their Lord.

"Thanks dad, I'm sure he would like that." Percy said as he got up and closed the eyes of his dead friend. "My Lord, may we attended the burial as well?" Porkpie asked as the sea God nodded his head and petted its mane. "Yes you may my children."

-Hour Later, Long Island Beach-

After talking with Chiron, Percy was given permission to release the Pegsi onto the beach. The sun was setting and glistened on the water as the Pegsi knelt as soon as Percy, Annabeth, and Grover removed the clock, reveling a good friend that they all knew. Percy knelt with them as he sent a prayer to his father, as soon as he was done he wiped the tears from his face.

Percy had placed doughnuts and sugar cubes under the stallions' wing. Waves began to grow as they approached the land it formed a hand. The hand of Poseidon gently picked up Blackjack. As the hand began to submerge into the ocean, the body of his friend began to turn into sea foam. The wind from the North picked up some of the sea foam and blew it back to Percy and it touched his skin, as if saying good bye.

I'm not crying…. Okay yes I'm crying. I, I hope you enjoyed this fanfic.
