This is just the prologue, but I have a good feeling about this story. Just as a heads up, the next chapter probably won't be out for a while, depending on when I get it done. I'm guesstimating about a week, two weeks tops before chapter one.
Enjoy!

"Someone get a medic over here! She needs help!"
"Move aside! I'm a doctor!"
"How is she? Will she be alright?"
"She'll be…alive."
"…but not okay…"
Silence.
"I…I don't know. More than likely not."
A sigh. "Well, that's better than nothing."
A nod. "Yes. Let's get her to the hospital now. And quickly."
--
"How is she?"
"She's fine, but…"
"…but? What?!"
"S-she's had a number of injuries, all of them easily healed, but uh…she's suffered some, er, head trauma."
A pair of eyes narrowed. "What does that mean exactly?"
A pair of feet shuffled. "She's suffering from…" A swallow. "…Amnesia."
The eyes that were narrowed closed in dismay. The hands came up and covered up the face as the body kneeled over itself.
"I'm…I'm sorry." A sincere apology. "We did everything we could." The feet carried its owner down the hall, away from the misery.
The hands came away from the face to reveal red-rimmed eyes. The body lifted itself up and went over to the window that held her. The red-rimmed eyes watched her sleeping form, her pale skin, golden locks, and dark lashes that caressed her cheeks. The legs of the body pulled its owner away from the window and the girl that held painful memories, down the hall, and out the door, away from the one thing the body's owner really cared about.
That girl.
But she wouldn't remember this body's owner, and rather than torture the mind with wishful thinking, the body tugged its owner away so its owner could heal, and so its owner's mind could try to relax, and so its owner's heart wouldn't feel so strangled.
Every part of the owner's body sagged in remorse and sorrow as they left the one thing that made them feel worthy, away from the girl who changed their owner's life…
…away from happiness.
Next chapter is Annabeth's POV with partial Percy POV. Review please and let me know if you like it! Flames will be used to burn embarrassing photos :D
Thanks for reading!
