Hey, well, I just wrote this in my free time, nothing much to say other than that but enjoy!

Percy POV

"Daedalus strategy number 212," Annabeth had said. I racked my mind through the strategy courses that she forced me to take. Number 212. Right. Circle around target, in this case the Nemean Lion, in both directions, confusing it. Then, take multiple jabs at target periodically with partner, in this case Annabeth. This plan was much more tiring than others, but it served its purpose as Annabeth hit the vital spot in the lion's mouth and it erupted into golden dust. All over me. As I began brushing the dust off my clothes, Annabeth came up and hugged me.

"You actually paid attention in those courses. That's—that's amazing." She said in my ear. And I didn't detect sarcasm. I groaned. "Honestly, Annabeth, have a bit of confidence in me." I muttered. We were standing on a bridge that over looked all of Long Island. I had absolutely no clue what the mortals saw, but all of a sudden, they began clapping and cheering us.

"Thank you!" I said, doing a way over exaggerated bow. Annabeth laughed. "Let's get out of here." She said and began pulling me through the crowed. As we pushed through the crowed of tourists on the bridge, Annabeth gave a loud gasp in front of me.

"Annabeth?" I called, she was farther up ahead of me, but now frozen. I saw the fear in her eyes. "Annabeth!" I yelled, running up to her. In front of her, I saw a man in black clothing grab her hair and swing her around. Why doesn't she move? I think furiously. That's when I saw the gun in his hand. I picked up my pace. "Hello, Mr. Jackson." I froze. That voice. "Yes. We know who you are." I swallowed slowly. That voice sounded so familiar. "My name is Jeb Batcheldar." I couldn't place that name yet it too sounded familiar. What kind of monster uses a gun though? "Let me make this simple. You come with us, and I swear on the River Styx we`ll let the girl go." Thunder rumbled in the distance. "If not, then your girlfriend here will not make it off this bridge alive."

"DON'T YOU DARE DO IT, PERCY!" I heard Annabeth yell. Jeb hit her in the back of the head with his gun. I felt anger race threw me. "DON'T TOUCH HER!" I yelled back, the rage in my voice surprising me. I noticed more men in black were standing on the sides of the bridge, blocking and means of escape.

Wait. I was on a bridge. Water. I could practically hear Annabeth yelling Duh, Seaweed Brain! at me. But then I saw Annabeth standing there, absolute fear and determination in her eyes, and then the gun pointed to her temple. I looked at Jeb, his emotionless eyes taught me that he wouldn't be afraid to shoot if I tried anything funny. I knew at that very moment, I wouldn't do anything to risk her life.

Annabeth POV

I stared at Percy. This cannot be happening. It's been, like, two weeks since Percy defeated Kronos! Can't the fates cut us some slack? I waited for Percy to charge, or summon some awesome water powers to save me and get away from this freak. Instead, Percy slumped his shoulders in defeat. WHAT?

"Fine." He said. "Just let her go, alright?" A man grabbed him and put handcuffs on his wrists. Strangely, they seemed to handle him really delicately, as if they were trying to damage him. That's when they shoved a needle into his arm. I saw Percy hiss in pain and then slump forward, unconscious. "NO! PERCY!" I yelled. I looked back at Jeb. His eyes were happy, and slightly amused as well. "I will find Percy, get him back, and then I will KILL you." I said venomously. He smirked and slammed the butt of the gun against my forehead.

Soo, whatcha think? Review it if you like it and review it if you don't!
