I could feel the sweat dripping down my face, my head was aching. One more blow, I kept telling myself but the more I thrust my sword at the creature, the angrier it got and the weaker I became.
"Hold it together, Jackson." I kept whispering to myself. I couldn't take it. People started laughing. I hated the mockery, couldn't they tell how much it hurt? I screamed.
"Percy, are you okay?" Annabeth said. I opened my eyes. I was in my cabin, Annabeth at the door.
"Huh? Oh yeah, I'm fine" I replied.
"That's the fifth night in a row, Percy. You have to do something about those nightmares." Annabeth said.
"Yeah, I know. Just forget about it okay? I'll meet you in the dining hall." I told her.
Annabeth left for the dining hall. I changed into my camp half-blood shirt and shorts. I was still dripping in sweat. The nightmare came every night, it haunted me and it scared me like hell. I kept telling myself I could do this but it was hard. I just kept trying. I have to do this. For Annabeth. For Mom. For Grover. For all my friends. I can do this. I have to.
Yeah, that's it. A mini fanfic full of angst and drama so... Check out my other fanfics please! (:
