I rode rainbow quickly through the sea. That evil punk! I thought. I had to kill Luke now. I got to the side of the ship, and the anchor was down. I climbed, and when I got to the top, I saw none other than Luke waiting for me.

" LUKE! YOU LITTLE CREEP! LET ANNABETH GO!" I yelled. He smirked, and pointed to Annabeth, who was tied up to a pole.

" Come on, Percy. You think I'm just going to let her go? Give me all you got." He said.

I pulled out Riptide. He pulled out Backbiter. I jumped at him, but he swiftly dodged, and almost killed me, if I hadn't blocked suddenly. I dodged his every move, slashing back at him. He blocked, again and again. But finally, he backed down. That was my chance. I hurried over to Annabeth, and cut her free. I kissed her.

" Annabeth, get out of here. Rainbow is waiting on the side of the boat." I said.

" No. I'm waiting with you." She said.

" Luke will grab you at any second! Run! I promise to come back in one piece." I said, and we kissed again.

" No percy. I'm staying here." She said.

" Ok, but stay out of the way of Luke. I'm going to get a little payback before we leave." I said. I walked over to Luke.

" Luke, you are going to pay. Now." I said. I ran over and slashed him. His shoulder bled, and he was panting.

" I think that will teach you not to mess with me, or anybody at Camp Half-Blood." I said. Then, before he could get up, I ran to Annabeth. I grabbed her wrist, and we jumped off onto Rainbow.
