Chapter 2: Percy
He couldn't do anything…he couldn't even stand up. He felt like he was paralyzed and he almost was. He went into shock right after Gaea left and almost had a heart attack but his friends gave him ambrosia and a sleeping pill so he could calm down. Of course that just made it worse.
He instantly was pulled into the worst dream of his life.
He saw Annabeth unconscious on the ground and he wanted to scream but his voice didn't seem to work. Then he saw Gaea walk over to her limp, unresponsive body and zap her with some kind of electrical thing so hard she started having spasms on the floor. If you could cry in a dream, Percy would already have caused a flood. Suddenly, Annabeth was awake but her eyes were purely black. Percy was confused. Wasn't Gaea supposed to wake up in 13 days? Surely not today! Then he saw something that he never thought possible. Annabeth went over to one of the demigods and killed them with her knife. He couldn't believe it. That wasn't Annabeth. He knew Gaea was up to something but he wouldn't have known until Gaea pretty much told him the answer. She went over to one of her attendants and said to him, "This is by far the best idea you have had in millennia! Even though only part of essence is in the girl's body, I will still be able to control her and I will get stronger and stronger every day! Now…this is what we are going to do" and suddenly he was ripped out of his dream and back into the real world.
He looked up to see Jason looking down at him and Jason said, "Are you okay? I heard you screaming Annabeth from my room across the hall. What happened?"
Percy told Jason everything about his dream and Jason stood there in awe. He said to Percy, "I know this must be really hard for you and I'm really upset too but all of us will do everything we can to bring back Annabeth, I promise. Now try to get some sleep. Tomorrow we are having a stop to get some wood to fix the mess that Gaea did to our ship."
For the rest of the night, Percy didn't have any dreams and was surprised to wake up to the sound of the ocean against the ship.
He walked out onto the deck and found that the ship was docked next to some tiny island that looked pretty much deserted except for a shopping center where they were docked. He thought to himself that that was kind of strange but didn't say anything. He went over to Piper who he saw was fixing the mast and asked her, "Hey, would you mind if I just went in the Ocean for a few minutes? It looks like you guys need a lot a lot of help but I kind of was…" Piper interrupted him and said, "Percy, that's fine, we are doing great. I am so sorry about Annabeth."
Percy nodded and then jumped into the ocean fifty feet below. He didn't know why he wanted to go in the ocean but he didn't argue. It was the one place he could think. He swam around for what he thought was around an hour and walked back into the ship. It looked like the ship was back to normal and Frank said as I walked on, "I was just about to go look for you. We are ready to set sail for Athens."
Frank must have seen the worry in Percy's eyes because he said, "Percy, I know you are going through a lot right now. I would feel the same way if it was Hazel. But don't worry. We have always defeated whoever we needed to before. We will be fine, trust me."
With that, Percy went down below deck to get something to eat and found that pretty much everyone else was down there too. We were all eating in silence when Jason stood up and said, "A toast, to Annabeth, to Leo, and to us fighting, to never giving up, to never let it be our blood on Olympus."
We all cheered and suddenly we heard clapping from across the room. We all looked over to see Annabeth and she said, "Well, thank you. But I deserved that about as much as all of you deserve to live!"
Percy knew it wasn't really Annabeth. Her eyes were as black as night and her voice wasn't hers. It was Gaea. The only problem was that not everyone knew that. He shouted above my crying, "Its Gaea! Don't let her trick you!"
Piper stepped forward and using her charm speak said, "Annabeth, I know you're in there. Please, you can overcome Gaea, we all believe in you!"
Suddenly, Annabeth's eyes went back to their normal color and she fell to the floor. Percy ran over to her and kissed her over and over and helped her stand up. For the rest of the day Annabeth and him acted like a teenage couple and did everything together. Finally at dinner, when it was time to go to sleep, Percy whispered in her ear, "I love you."
And she said, "I love you too Seaweed Brain."
After, Piper walked over to her and gave her a hug and said, "Annabeth, I'm so happy that you are back."
Suddenly, Piper screamed and Percy looked up to see Annabeth with a bloody knife standing over Piper. I realized that her eyes were again black and she looked at all of us and said, "You pathetic demigods. You wanted to believe so much that your Annabeth was back. You thought that Piper was that powerful that she could defeat me with her charm speak? Ha! Well, I hope this was as much fun for you as it was for me!" and Gaea disappeared.
So, how did you guys like that ending? For the next chapter I am going to do the pov of either Jason, Leo, or Reyna! It's your choice! Plz, review with your response! Thank you all for reading this! The next chapter will hopefully come out in a week or less! Luv, Ashley Morgan
