Author Note- Hey! I was bored and this idea popped into my head so I decided to make it a Fanfic! This chapter is about Hazel waking up in the CHB infirmary and the others have some bad news...

Disclaimer- I do not own Percy Jackson and the Olympians or The Heroes of Olympus!


Hazel woke up in an unfamiliar room. There were several rows of beds all lined up and a lot of mattresses lying on the people who were lying on the beds or mattresses all looked injured somehow, and the people who weren't were rushing about attending to the others or talking to them. Hazel thought this might be a medical bay of sorts. She noticed her friends at the end of her bed, Nico, Percy, Leo, Piper, Annabeth and Jason. Hazel sat up to face them. She was going to ask where she was, but that wasn't her top priority anymore. "Where's Frank?" Hazel asked instinctively. They all looked at each other as if something was wrong.
"Hazel, he turned into a dragon and took you here, almost, when you passed out. He got shot out of the sky, It's a miracle that you survived." Leo explained solemnly.
"Is he in one of the other beds?" she asked, refusing to even consider the other possibility.
"Hazel," Piper sat down and took her hand, "Please don't make us say it."
"Is he in one of the other beds?" She repeated.
"Hazel please, he got shot out of the sky, you know what we mean." Percy told her with tears in his eyes. Hazel noticed that all of her other friends had glistening eyes as well.
"No. Please!" She pleaded.
"Hazel, I'm so, so sorry. Frank-" Nico stopped and closed his eyes like he was in pain, "He died." Hazel blinked a few times, her brother's words echoing around her hollow head, her hollow heart. She couldn't talk, only open and close her mouth like a goldfish. Frank turned into a goldfish once. Hazel put her head back on the pillow and stared at the ceiling, this couldn't be happening, she couldn't let it happen. But it had already happened, and there was nothing she could do now. A single tear rolled down her escaped her eye, then another, and they were followed by a waterfall of salty tears cascading down her battle-scarred face. She cried until there was no reason to cry anymore. She felt numb inside, like there was nothing, just nothing. She didn't know when her friends left but when she opened her eyes again they were all gone. Hazel turned around and squeezed her eyes shut. She didn't want to face the world anymore.


A/N- So how was it? Please review and tell me how I did!

P.S. Next chapter will be about Leo's death, so if you wish to read it be prepared!
