I hope you liked the prologue!I enjoyed writing it,so here's chapter one!
Annabeth's POV
As her mother and Annabeth evaporated Enceladus,Annabeth took a moment to look for Percy.She saw him just as he kicked Tartarus back into his pit and summoned a bubble of water that was undoubtedly from the Underworld.He pulled Gaia in,and with that,Annabeth had to look away in order to survive the attack from some hellhounds.She hated those beasts.Mrs. O'Leary was there fighting alongside her.Just as she was about to be trampled by one of said hellhounds she heard an earpiercing scream coming from the direction of Percy.Terror washed over her.Her Seaweed Brain was in trouble and she was stuck.Wait,she thought,why can't I move?!
The air turned cold.Wind blew rapidly.Everything became dark.Annabeth felt a presence of something so ancient it must have been forgotten.She heard Gaia screaming as she was held aboveground in the bubble Percy created.She looked over and saw her Seaweed Brain reaching for Riptide.He was glowing.His father must have blessed him.Usually when a demigod is blessed by their parent,they glow in the gods color.But this was different.He glowed in some terrifying shade of black.
He hesitated for a second as he turned to me and smiled.It wasn't his usual warm smile.It was more of an apologetic smile saying I'm sorry,I love you.
"What is he doing?!!" she heard Zeus scream.Percy turned back to Gaia and charged showing his sword right trough her heart.One last scream tore the air as the place where Gaia was floating flashed in a blinding white light.NO! Annabeth screamed in her head.She thought Gaia had revealed her true form and burned Percy to ash.She looked away trying to fight back tears.
As the light passed,Annabeth felt herself unfreze and got ready for the hellhound that tried to attack her moments before.When nothing happened she opened her eyes to see all her friends awake and not that badly hurt.All the monsters disappeared.She looked at the place she last saw Percy.He wasn't there.All that was left was a small smoking krater in the ground.She looked around,he was nowhere to be seen.No,no,no he can't be dead! Zeus released a little thunder calling for everyone's attention.
"Demigods",he announced,"with a great sacrifice,we have won the Secon Giant War!"
Everyone cheered,but Jason,Hazel,Frank,Nico,Reyna and all the gods still looked defeated.Only they knew what the sacrifice was.
"The prophecy of the Seven has been completed.But now is not the time to celebrate.First we must honor the life of a hero,a hero who gave up everything to save everyone.A hero who died fighting for the sake of Olympus.The life of a boy who made everyone's lives brighter.First we must honor the life of the Savior of Olympus,Perseus Jackson"
Everyone stoped cheering and looked around.After they realized that the greatest hero of their age had died in the battle,a few sobs broke trough.Annabeth's heart broke.He was dead.Her Seaweed Brain was gone.He died to protect them.The sea was enraged.Annabeth fell on her knees screaming for Percy.She knew he wasn't coming back,but it still it hurt like hell.Not even their time in Tartarus seemed so terrifying as the thought of him dead.Suprisingly,the first one to come to her wasn't one of her sibilings,one of her friends from the Argo II,not her mother,not one of her friends from camp,but Reyna.The Camp Jupiter Preator was the first one to comfort her.She saw tears rolling down her face as well.She saw the Argo II crew sobbing as well.They stayed like that for some time,not believing that the great Percy Jackson,their hero,their friend,was gone.
A little cliffhanger,sorry...I'll try and update soon.
