In The Face Of Doom Trilogy:Part 2:I'm Sorry Chapter 2, a percy jackson and the olympians fanfic

Annabeth's POV

I began walking down the hill. I tried to understand what Percy just told me. What did he mean by never give up on him. Now I'm convinced that this involves his plan to defeat and destroy Kronos.

But what could it be that it made him say all those things to me. His words rang through my ears like a broken record player.

Never give up on me,I still don't understand. Good Bye,Where in the name of the gods is he going anyway. I hope you find it in your heart to forgive me,I'll always forgive him just as he always did to me.

I sighed in frustration. All of it made no sense. I asked myself the same question over and over again. What's going to happen.

Now I know that only one person can answer all my questions.

Nico di Angelo. Where is he anyway. I decided that he must have went off to the arena. So I went there to question him. This time I'll get the truth out of him. Whatever it takes. But I won't hurt him,maybe just interrogate him. I got to the arena but he wasn't there. Where cold he be. This is great. First Percy now Nico. Could this day get any worse.

My thoughts were interrupted by a camper. He told me that Chiron is asking for me at the Big House. He said it was an emergency and that what Chiron is gonna tell me is important. He told me to go there right away.

I didn't know it but then I was running towards the direction of the Big House. Maybe it's about Percy. Maybe all my questions wil be answered. But I got my hopes up too high.

I finally made it to the Big House. Thalia and Grover were sitting there,talking to Chiron,who was playing pinochle with Mr. D. Mr. D was bored. I don't think I ever saw him get off that chair for a long period of time. He was bored. I mean who wouldn't be if you were sentenced to stay in one place for a hundred years. But the best he can do is make the most out of it and loosen up.

"Well,well,well if it isn't Annabelle Cheese.",Mr. D said. He's very annoying. In fact more annoying than Jenna and Matthew and Bobby. He insists on gettig our names wrong just because he hates us. He thinks that ALL heroes are selfish even though not all are. Some even died for the good of all.

"Hey Annabeth,where have you been.", Thalia asked,annoyed. I ddn't know that I spent so much time since we arrived. Partially looking for Nico.

I didn't answer. Where would I start. I culdn't just go off and say, "Oh nothing,just said good bye to Percy since he has a plan to defeat Kronos that only he and Nico can know about. Did you know that he might not even live through it."

So I just didn't say anything. This time Grover asked a question.

"Where's Percy",he asked expectedly. He wanted to know where his best friend is.

I said nothing but looked down on the ground. Chiron stopped playing with Mr. D for a while and asked,

"What is it child. What's wrong",he asked with worry in his eyes. I forced a small smile. He was always looking out for me. Always worried about me.

"Where is Percy, Annabeth?",Grover asked me again. He's chewing on a tin can now. He's getting worried. I must talk before he breaks down and start asking me repeatedly where Percy is.

It took all of my courage to talk. I slowly looked up again and saw three faces eagerly looking at me,waiting for an answer.

"He left",I finally said.

"What?"

"Why?"

"Where did he go?"

Their faces were covered with confusion. I was confused the first time too.

"He didn't tell me where he was going. He just told me a few things and then he flew away on Blackjack.",I said.

I half expected them to bombard me with questions but I got only one. It came from all three of them though.

"What did he say?",they asked at the same time. I'm getting annoyed now. But I realized that I'm the only one now with some information of what's going on.

I just looked back down on the ground. Chiron seemes to understand that what Percy told me is personal and he decided to drop the subject.

"Anyway,I'm sure Percy will come back soon",Chiron said.

I hoped he was right. I hoped that Percy will come back,and he'll be wearing his goofy smile and his green eyes will be filled with hapiness and life,not worry and sadness.

"Now back to the matter at hand. I've been informed that Kronos is preparing to attack. Camp Half-Blood will be his first target,as we are the gods' warriors and first defense.",he said.

"We'll be ready Chiron",Thalia said with full confidence. She was wearing her face that said she was ready for anything.

I wished I had the same confidence as hers. But I was too worried about Percy and his plan.

"If anything new has happened,I'll inform you three immediately.",Chiron said and then continued playing.

"Yeah,yeah. Now scoot you brats. Can't you see we are playing.",Mr D said irritably while sipping on a diet coke.

I wanted to punch him in the nose then. If only he wasn't a god but just a plain,old,ordinary drunk. Didn't he know that we were about to be attacked. Does he even care. At least one bit.

Apparantly not. He only cares about his diet coke and his stupid pinochle game.

I was the first out of the Big House. I started walking quickly to my cabin to avoid Grover and Thalia. But they ran to catch up to me.

"Wait up Annabeth"

"Yeah,we need to ask you something."

They're both out of breath. I hadn't realized that I can walk really fast if I wanted to.

"What is it guys",I said. Although I already knew what they're gonna ask.

"What exactly did Percy tell you.",Thalia asked,eyeing me carefully. Grover looked at me eagerly.

"Do you promise that you won't tell anyone",I said. I had to know if I can trust them.

They both nodded in agreement.

"Aright talk",Grover ordered. I never heard him say that before. But right now,I couldn't care less.

I took a deep breath before starting. Explaining to them everythin I know is gonna be hard.

"Before leaving with Blackjack,Percy told me to never give up on him. He said that whatever he will do will hurt everyone he loves. He also asked me to forgive him for whatever he'll do. He said that Nico will explain everything soon. Just as soon as their plan commences.",I said,out of breath.

"What plan"

"They-Percy and Nico-have a plan to defeat Kronos but they won't tell anyone about it. As far as I know,they're the only ones who know about it."

"Wait a second where's Nico?",Grover said.

"He arrived here at Camp with us right?"

Thalia grabbed both of our hands and led us to a fountain.

"Come on lets IM him",she said.

"Where do you think he is",Grover asked.

"The Underworld is a pretty good guess.",I suggested.

"Alright,we'll give it a try."

She tossed a golden drachma in the fountain and said,

"O Iris,Goddess of the rainbow accept my offering."

"Nico di Angelo,the Underworld."

A mist formed and we saw Nico through it. He was talking to two ghosts. Then he saw us. I recognized them as Bianca di Angelo and Zoe Nightshade. They seemed to be discussing something important. The ghosts disappeared when they saw us.

"Woah! You guys scared me. Look I know what you're gonna say. It's just that I have a few things I need to do."

"Just one question Nico",Thalia said.

"Go on"

"What's the plan to defeat Kronos."

His eyes widened and he looked at us for a few seconds,then

"Oops,gotta go. Bye",he said. Then he swiped at the message,disrupting the connection.

"Well that went well",I said.

"Uh guys",Grover said while looking at the top of the hill.

Thalia and I looked and we saw,at the top of the hill. Blackjack.

"Woah boy. Calm down", I said ruffling his name. I handed him an apple and he chewed it down,neighing happily. Then I saw a box strapped to his saddle. It was the same size as the one that Percy bought from the electronics store. Except now,it's wrapped and there's a note stuck to it.

I took it from the saddle and looked at it carefully.

Annabeth,this gift is especially for you.

Like I said before,I'm very sorry.

Seaweed Brain

I opened it up and it revealed an Ipod. I sighed. Didn't he know that I already have one. Apparantly not. I looked at the list of songs and saw that he had already uploaded two songs.

"Everything I do I do it for you"by Bryan Adams

Look into my eyes - you will see
What you mean to me
Search your heart - search your soul
And when you find me there you'll search no more

Don't tell me it's not worth tryin' for
You can't tell me it's not worth dyin' for
You know it's true
Everything I do - I do it for you

Look into your heart - you will find
There's nothin' there to hide
Take me as I am - take my life
I would give it all - I would sacrifice

Don't tell me it's not worth fightin' for
I can't help it - there's nothin' I want more
Ya know it's true
Everything I do - I do it for you

There's no love - like your love
And no other - could give more love
There's nowhere - unless you're there
All the time - all the way

Oh - you can't tell me it's not worth tryin' for
I can't help it - there's nothin' I want more
I would fight for you - I'd lie for you
Walk the wire for you - ya I'd die for you

Ya know it's true
Everything I do - I do it for you

"Leave out all the Rest" by Linkin Park

I dreamed I was missing
You were so scared
But no one would listen
Cause no one else cared
After my dreaming
I woke with this fear
What am I leaving
When I'm done here
So if you're asking me I want you to know

When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed
Don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

Don't be afraid
I've taking my beating
I've shared what I've made
I'm strong on the surface
Not all the way through
I've never been perfect
But neither have you
So if you're asking me I want you to know

Forgetting
All the hurt inside you learned to hide so well
Pretending
Someone else can come and save me from myself
I can't be who you are

Forgetting
All the hurt inside you learned to hide so well
Pretending
Someone else can come and save me from myself
I can't be who you are
I can't be who you are

I held the Ipod close to my heart. Everything that he told me,connects to the songs.

I was so worried about the things that will happen as I looked out into the sea. Remembering everything that he told me. I made a silent promise to myself that I'll do everything he asked me to.

How was that. If you read the lyrics of the song,it does connect.

Anyways,review please. I'll be posting the 3rd chapter soon.

Peace!

I'm out
