AN: Sorry to those who read my previous chapter before. I said he turns 16 tomorrow but I meant it to be that day.

Thanks to Hunter00 who made a good point about Annabeth being slightly out of character blurting out her feelings. This would be towards the end of book 5 and assume that Annabeth and Percy have been through a lot and kissed a few times. (Like in the one in BotL) Assume that neither outwardly said that they love the other but showed signs throughout book 5 that they loved each other. So Annabeth decides to actually say it first.

Percy's POV:

Everybody stood still and stared at the borders. I heard the sound of metal on metal as all the campers drew their weapons in unison. Some campers had spears, swords, bows, and Grover with his reed pipes. All ready for the monster blood that they would feast on. (AN: It may sound like I mean the half-bloods feast on monster blood but I'm talking about their weapons metaphorically feasting on the monster blood)

The monsters appeared on the horizon but hesitated when they got near the borders. Kronos/Luke appeared at the front and walked through the borders like nothing. I swallowed really hard. The monsters followed behind and roared. Then chaos broke loose. The monsters charged the campers and the campers started making different formations instructed by the sons and daughters of Athena. The Hunters release a volley towards the monsters which took out a few but that made no difference in the monsters charging. Cyclops, hydras, half-bloods, and other monster you can name and it was there.

I quickly side-stepped a half-blood's sword and returned with an upward slash that took my enemy by his shoulder. He tried to decapitate me but was unsuccessful when I parried it with Riptide. I lunged and finished him off only to find another monster or half-blood to take the place of the one I slaughtered. I looked around and saw Annabeth downing monsters with her Yankees' cap and knife. Grover was playing tunes that echoed the power of Pan making plants and vines to shoot up out of the ground and trip the monsters who were killed by other campers.

Monster dust clouded the air. We had a few casualties and many injured campers. I had a gash on my leg and Grover took a blow to the head which made him seem dizzy since he kept stumbling.

I killed a hydra and it was replaced by gold, intimidating eyes.

"Percy you will join me I will make sure of it," Kronos exclaimed. Almost everyone stopped their fighting and watched us, even the monsters.

"I plan to stay on the gods' side Kronos". I felt the tug of water and sent a wave at Kronos but he was unfazed when it blasted him full force. What I did get was an angry look from a very wet Titan Lord. He made a motion to his left and grabbed something. I thought my heart would stop right then and there when he pulled the hat off Annabeth making her visible.

"Let her go Kronos." I almost screamed. Hatred and rage was boiling up inside me.

"Not unless you join us. I'll make you an offer actually. If you don't join she will die. If you join the almighty Titan's side then I will let her go and you two will be generals in our great army!"

"Percy don't listen to him." Thalia and Annabeth said at the same time. Oh I wish I could ignore it. Annabeth would die if I said no!! I wouldn't be able to leave guilt free if I said no and Annabeth died because of it. I hesitated and weighed my options.

"Percy I'm not as important as the rest of the world. Don't listen to him." Annabeth tried to get that to my head but I shut out all noise, deep in thought.

"Catch!" I yelled as I threw Riptide blade first towards Kronos who attempted to use Annabeth as a shield. Unfortunately for him since I had water on my side and I blinded him with by spraying water directly into his eyes. He dropped Annabeth when he went to wipe the water out of his eyes. Annabeth quickly ran over to my side and gave me a really quick kiss on the cheek. At the same time I heard groans from disappointed Hunters who wanted to recruit Annabeth.

"AHHHHHHH." Kronos bellowed as he lost his bargaining chip and got struck with Riptide in the thigh just barely between the chinks of his armor. Him being a Titan and all made the sword probably seem like getting a shot at the doctor's. He raised his scythe and charged me flailing it madly and Riptide in the other hand.

I ducked then came up with a kick that sent Riptide out of his hands and a few feet to my left. He came down with his scythe and I rolled to the left. Before I could think he slashed almost taking my arm off but I grabbed and blocked with Riptide. Still the eyes bore down on us from all around. I'm glad no one else came to help. I don't want anyone hurt and this needed to be settled with just me and Kronos.

I got up and started my own attacks but time seemed slower and boy he was good at fighting. Every slash and swipe was met by his scythe with ease. He laughed and seemed to enjoy my puny attempts to do him harm. His laugh was replaced by a grimace when I stepped into the water and scored a hit on his wrist. He thrust his scythe towards me and knocked my blade out of my hands. Before he could kill me I made a grab for his scythe. With water on my side, I could meet his strength better.

The scythe went back and forth getting close to each of our bodies. One touch would kill. One touch would separate body from soul and decide the fate of Olympus…

AN: What will happen? R&R please :D

I did 2 chapters in one day. :)
