THE MARK OF ATHENA

CHAPTER 1-ANNABETH

Beep! Beep! Beep! Annabeth groaned and rolled over. Beep! Beep! Beep!

"ANNABETH! WAKE UP!" Annabeth sat up groggily.

"What do you want Malcom?" She asked.

"Oh, nothing, I just thought you kind of wanted to see your boyfriend again. You know what I mean?" her half-brother said.

"Di Immortals!" Annabeth exclaimed. "Leo finished the ship?"

"Yeah. He was up all night last night drinking coffee and Coke to keep himself awake." Piper said walking in the Athena Cabin. "I really don't think he needed it." She laughed. Annabeth rolled her eyes.

A horn sounded in the distance. "Breakfast. CABIN SIX! FALL IN!" Annabeth shouted.

She lead the Athena Cabin to the dining hall, where she sacrificed part of her food and ate the rest hungrily.

Suddenly Annabeth heard the crowd get quiet. Chiron was standing at the front of the room.

"Campers, " His voice echoed around the hall. "Today, we will travel to San Fransisco, to meet the Romans. Mr. Leo Valdez has finished the Argo II and is ready to set sail." The crowd cheered. Chiron waited a moment and continued, "The campers that are going to go are: Annabeth, Piper, Jason, Leo, Clarisse, Katie, Pollux, Conner and Travis, Will, Rachel, and Grover."

The crowd applauded. "The campers that have been chosen, please go pack your things, now."

Annabeth walked to her cabin and packed a few Camp Half- Blood T-shirt, jean shorts, Daedalus' laptop, her invisibility cap, and strapped her dagger to her arm. She looked at her nightstand, and saw a picture of her, Percy and Grover on the beach after they fought Kronos. They were laughing at a comment Conner and Travis had said, when they took the picture. Don't worry you WILL see him again. Annabeth thought. She put it gently in a side pocket of her bag.

"Annabeth!" Piper called as she walked inside the cabin. "It's time to go! Leo said if we don't get on the ship before he takes off, then we wouldn't be able to go at all." Annabeth hefted her duffle bag up and started walking to the door. "Well, you coming Pipes?" She called over her shoulder.

"I'm right behind you." Her friend said.

*Line Break*

Annabeth looked over the rails of the Argo II. The ship had left Camp Half-Blood, over three hours ago, and according to Jason, they would be there in about 20 minutes. Annabeth sighed, and a bunch of What-ifs ran through her head. What if Percy doesn't remember her? What if he got a new girlfriend? What if he never got to the camp? What if he got to the camp, and the Romans killed him? What if the Romans were torturing him? What if? What if? What if? Annabeth groaned in frustration. She wanted to punch something, but she managed to resist.

"You okay Annabeth?" Annabeth jumped at the sound of Grover's voice. "Gods Grover. You scared me."

Grover laughed. "So, you never answered my question. Are you okay?" Annabeth sighed.

"Yeah." Grover gave her a look. Annabeth shook her head. "No. I'm not okay, Grover. I'm worried about him. What if he doesn't remember anything? What if the Romans killed him?" She was on the verge of crying. Grover hugged her. "You know I'm worried, too Annie. He's my best friend. You don't think I'm wondering if he replaced me? Well, I'm his protector. He can't replace me!" He laughed and Annabeth managed a smile. "He can't replace you either. You're his best friend, and his girlfriend. You're his fighting partner. You are the person that can actually knock some sense into him when nobody else can."

Annabeth nodded. "Thanks Grover." They turned back to the edge of the ship. "Whoa." Annabeth breathed. It was clear they were approaching the Roman camp. They landed with a soft THUD and watched as a large group of demigods.

Jason walked over and rested his hands on the rail. "You two know the plan?" He asked them. Annabeth and Grover nodded. The plan was:

Jason and Annabeth would go out first; Jason as a sign of peace, and Annabeth as the leader of Camp Half-Blood. Piper, Leo, Grover and Rachel would come out next, and when everything was okay, everybody else would come out.

Once again, Annabeth looked out over the crowd, and this time she saw him.

Percy Jackson…..in a toga.
