~Percy~
I stood there with a smile plastered to my face as Chiron stared at me wide-eyed with his mouth open. Mr.D slowly took a sip of his Diet Coke, still phased.
"Well..w-we must plan to get her back! Percy, go tell Annabeth while Mr.D and I get hold of the Gods and Thetis." I smiled and nodded, then ran out of the house, it felt...amazing to see that things were finally working out. I was going to get her back ,after all this time!
~Annabeth~
I was sitting by the Lake...staring blankly into the water. Water...Severa. I sighed..I missed her so much. She was my best friend...she's been gone for 2 years now. I feel extra bad because I haven't been paying attention to Will...he's not my boyfriend though...but if Severa was still here, I'm sure he would be..I can imagine her setting up things for me to get closer to him since I was too chicken to do it myself. Gods, I miss her. I heard footsteps behind me and felt a few pieces of sand hit me as the person sat down. I looked over and gasped. Will?
"Hey." He whispered.
"Hey." I replied softly as I continued staring out into the lake.
He scooted closer to me and whispered,"You've been really quiet lately. I'm worried."
I couldn't bite back my remark,"It's been 2 years, you're just now noticing." The minute I say it, I regret it, but Will shows no sign of anger, only pity.
"No, I noticed the minute you came back to camp without Severa. I jus never brought it up because I wanted to let you heal. After about 1 year, I thought you'd be ok...but you weren't so I just kept hoping you'd open up. But you never did."
I sighed and bit my lip, not making eye contact, so he sighed and continued,"I thought it'd pass. It never did, so I thought I shouldn't get involved because it'd...it;d bring back more pain."
I didn't notice I was crying until I felt his thumb wipe away my tears. He hugged me and I broke down.
"I'm sorry I've ignored you, Will." He rubbed my back reassuringly and hushed me,"It's okay, I'm here Annabeth, for whatever."
We stayed like that for a couple of minutes until Percy came running to the lake, kicking sand everywhere. I coughed and yelled,"Percy!"
He ignored me and panted out,"I..I found Severa!"
~Percy~
I saw Will and Annabeth staring at me like Zeus dropped down here in only his boxers.
I was breathing heavily until Annabeth shook her head,"Y-y-you're serious? YOU.. YOU FOUND HER?!" I nodded, a smile on my face and she hopped up and Will hopped up with her, a smile on his face too.
Annabeth hugged me and then hugged Will,"OH MY GODS! WE'RE GOING TO GET HER BACK!"
He laughed and hugged her tightly. I winked at him, signalling I'd leave them alone. Hey, I knew what it was like to be in love.
I ran back and began shouting across camp,"I FOUND SEVERA!"
I got a lot of strange looks but then I also got a lot of cheers and high fives. I got a lot of whoops from guys and saw them high-five each other. I guess I wasn't the only one who missed her, but I definitely missed her the most. Travis and Connor both punched the air and cheered. Even the Aphrodite cabin was happy, they missed seeing all the love Severa and I shared. I ran and I saw the Zeus cabin and hesitantly walked up to it. Ever since she was gone, I never looked at the cabin...if I did I'd cry or throw shit and makes huge ass waves in anger. Yes, cry, I'm not scared to admit it. One time I made a wave so huge, it, well, let's just say some people had to learn how to swim. I walked up to the door and slowly twisted the knob. I was taken back by the scent of the ocean, of Severa. I saw her clothes here...her neatly made bed. Her iPod speakers. I smiled when I saw a picture of us in a seashell bordered frame. I picked it up. It was a picture of us sitting together at the beach at the lake.I don't know who took this, or that she even had this, but I'm glad, it made my heart fly.I set it down, then walked and sat on her bed and looked at the skylight she had. It was perfectly angled to see the I bounced off the bed and walked onto the mini beach she had outside. I smiled at the mini dock she made with big rocks. Then I walked over to the real dock she had. Chiron had harpies make it for her. I counted the planks of wood until I reached 16. I smiled and knelt and saw words carved in
"I met Percy..."Then there was a heart carved next to my name.
Then I walked to the edge of the dock and had an idea. I took out Riptide and clicked it.I carefully carved more words out onto the last plank that was on the end.
"Severa and Percy...together, until the end."
I smiled and walked out of her cabin and walked to mine.I plopped onto my bed and stared at the ceiling.
Then a misty image appeared and I sat up.
"Mom?" I asked and I saw my mom smile.
"Oh, Percy! Hey honey! I got the good news from Chiron! You found her?!"
I smiled and chuckled,"Yeah."
"Oh, honey, I'm so glad! Just be careful when you get her, alright?"
I rolled my eyes and nodded and she blew me a kiss,"I have to go now! Coming Phil!"
Then she waved her hand and then disappeared.
I sighed...I'm coming Severa.
~ 1 week later
PERCY~~
I had half the camp with me, including Annabeth and Grover. I had some Nereids and Apollo and Ares...he couldn't resist a battle, plus he liked Severa's spunk. Apollo...he's just a team player and was "Bored out of his head" at the time...and I'm pretty sure I heard him mumble that Severa was hot, but I let that slide. I led them all to the cliff and made sure they all got down carefully after I pushed the demigods went first to handle the monsters. When we got in, we all immediately killed the monsters.
"6 of you stay out here with Apollo and make sure no monsters get in!" I ordered and saw a few of them nod and saw 6 stay behind, Apollo pistol pointed me and stayed with them, getting out his bow and arrows.
I nodded,"Alright, the rest, with me!" I told Severa to say she was going to mop the basement with Alice, since they weren't allowed outside the castle. I made 3 demigods stay outside of the basement door along with Ares. It was now me, Annabeth, Grover and Will. We ran down the stairs and I heard whispering. I saw Severa and I ran to her. She dropped her mop and hugged me. I stepped back to take in her presence. She had jeans on, converse, a black hoodie and her beautiful hair was down. Even in such a mess she still looked raidiant. I kissed her and smiled and she kissed my and Alice grabbed her bags and Severa sighed,"Let's get out of this hell hole."
~Severa~
Percy took my hand and dragged me up the stairs and Alice stumbled behind us. Ares gave us a thumbs up as he smiled at us...he was standing over a few dead guards. I rolled my eyes and smiled at began running down the hallways, it was like a huge maze, but Alice and I knew our ways around so we saw a mob of monsters and stopped and quickly turned into another hallway. I heard Luke shouting in the hallway,"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU CAN'T FIND THEM?!"
Shit..."Fuck." I muttered and Percy smirked fromt he side of me.
We ran faster, turning in random directions, hoping we'd get lucky and find one that'd lead to an exit.
"Percy Jackson." We heard Luke call from the other end of the hall.
"Luke Castellan." Percy growled and turned around and pulled me behind him. Luke rolled his eyes and smiled,"Give her back."
Percy glared ahead,"She's not an object Luke." He spat and I smiled to myself for that. Percy was so good at respecting women. Luke on the other hand...
"Well, either way, she is mine." Luke tilted his head and smiled a cold smile that he tried to make sweet.
I pushed Percy out of the way and walked forward a bit,"I am only Percy's."
He rolled his eyes and sighed, drawing his sword,"You know, I hate killing people before bed, but I guess it must be done."
Annabeth laughed, making it echo through the hallways,"You think you stand a chance against 2 gods and like 30 campers? Especially Percy and Severa."
Luke shrugged,"It's worth a shot."
I sighed and smirked,"You're so naïve Luke."
Luke looked up at the ceiling, scrunching his face."Nah,more like...confident. Yeah, that's the word." He smiled at us, as if we were all friends here...when in truth, we were the exact opposite.
"More like a complete douche bag." Okay..that slipped from my lips...Percy roared in laughter, along with the rest of the demigods and even Ares and Apollo laughed.
Luke's eyes flared in rage and his face turned red and I smirked,"Aw, did I hurt your feelings?" I cooed, which pissed him off even more.
I smiled and then I remembered something,"Oh! Do tell me, how is my dear aunt Hecate doing?"
This made Luke cool down a little and he shrugged,"Fine, she's still working for Kronos, helping him plot to kill you. Same old, same old."
Percy walked up behind me, putting his arm around my waist, smiling,"Yeah that wrong how about, about to get your ugly ass kicked? Same old, same old." I laughed and so did our"audience".
Luke pointed his sword at Percy,"Watch it,sailor boy...I bet I'm still a better sword fighter."
I laughed,"I bet Grover could beat you."
I heard Grover bleat behind me in...a laughing way. I smiled at him and winked then turned my attention back to Luke.
"Well, if you're so confident, let your boyfriend fight me."
I'm sure he saw the worry in my eyes because a smirk found its way to his lips. Let Percy fight him? I'm sure Percy wouldwin...but...at what costs?
Percy stroked my arm and nodded, I let him go with a slight nod. Then I walked back to Ares,"Once they start...wait until Luke looks vulnerable...then shout, we'll all run, and you strike him. Got it?"
Ares smiled and cracked his knuckles,"You got it kid."
I smiled and walked over to Annabeth and told her, she gave me a thumbs up and a toothy grin,"Hmm, nice strategy...I suggest he strike his leg then elbow him in the neck, stunning him for a second, which is enough for us to escape."
I nodded and she walked over to Ares and told him the plan he nodded and kept his eyes on Luke, completely focused. Anything for a fight I guess.I turned my eyes to Percy and saw he was doing well. I smiled at all the effort he put in.
Annabeth came and hugged me,"I'm so glad to see you."
I hugged her back and whispered,"You have no idea how happy I am to be standing here with you again."
She smiled at me and we kept our arms linked as we watched the duel in front of us shouted and we all ran. Ares did as told and Luke fell, Percy looked around confused, but I tugged on his arm and pulled him.I felt something hit my back and I gasped and felt pain spread slowly in my body.I fell on the ground, gasping and screaming in pain. I kept wriggling on the ground, I saw Percy's feet as he stood there, shocked, then he kneeled next to me, then Annabeth and Grover came over.
Percy's face had panic I"m sure, I couldn't see,my vision was becoming blurry.
"Apollo! Help!" Annabeth cried and I heard footsteps running.
"S-Severa, calm down for a sec, alright? I'm here, you're gonna black out for a while."
I heard Apollo's golden and soothing voice, but not as golden and pure and beautiful as Percy's...
Percy..I thought about him and calmed down, ignoring the pain, then falling into darkness.
I felt the ground being lifted from under me and heard Percy's voice as it hit me like a wave,"I'm here, love, I'm here." I smiled a bit and let myself sleep.
~Percy~
We ran out of the doors, but not before I heard Kronos 'strong voice.
"You may have escaped this one alive, Perseus Jackson...but next time, you may not be so lucky...along with your little love." He spat and I stood there, wanting to give Severa to Annabeth and waltz right in there and kill Kronos...but I shook the thought away..No...Severa needed me.
