Hey guys sorry I took a week to continue with the story. I have to say that your reviews really played a part in getting my lazy-ass to the computer to type the words.

I added some of my own enemies and characters,so there bear no link to the real story. Please take note of this,thanks!

Review,and any remarks on how I can improve my stories?You guys deserve only the best!

Thanks people!

I ran.

I ran and ran and ran.

I heard her scream again.

Annabeth...

I was going crazy!My mind started losing control,my body started to tremble,my hands started to shake. Riptide vibrated shakily under my loose grip. I couldn't find her anywhere!It was so dark and there was no source of light at all. I felt as if I was walking in a pitch black hole,going in circles,absolutely heading nowhere.

Then I heard a voice.

"Percy...come..."

I didn't have time to think,but the female voice was my only lead. I followed it,hoping that what I was following would lead me to Annabeth. I would figure out the voice later,but right now I had more important things on my mind.

True enough,the voice did bring me to Annabeth. But a unconscious one at that. She lay with her eyes shut,her body contorted into some sick position,as if she had fallen from battle. Her blue dress was soaked in her blood,her makeup all messy with her hair untied. Her heels lay broken,her knife at her side lay cracked with the tip dripping blood. Whose blood I wasn't sure,but I couldn't care less.

I ran and fell on her side,shaking her as tears streaked down from Zeus knows where. I had never cried before.

My hands were stained with her blood from carrying her out of the forest,and my white tie had turned blood red. As I approached nearer to camp, Clarisse spotted me holding Annabeth in my arms,and immediately called for aid. She ran by my side,asking everyone to move away and step back.

I couldn't stop crying.

As Chiron galloped towards my side,i saw his eyes widen for a brief moment before he shouted.

"Quick,there's no time! Put her on my back! I will give her aid. The rest of the campers,put this camp on lock-down,now!" Grover stood by my side, while a tearing Juniper tried to comfort me. Some of her the campers from the Athena cabin were in tears,and I could hear Malcolm cursing and swearing vulgarities through his gritted teeth. Mr D. proceeded to put the camp on lock-down,and soon a white like shield came out from the four pillars that surrounded the camp. Anything that was here would stay here,no one would escape.

I lay on my knees,still staring at the ground where Annabeth last lay. Her knife was cracked and stained with blood. On its side,it read "Perseus Jackson,her life is on your shoulders"

Concerned faces stood around me, some obviously in shock of the sudden turn of events that night. It was supposed to be the best..and yet..

Grover knelt beside me,placing a hand on my shoulder,words not said. There was merely nothing that could be said right now given the current situation. I knew I wasn't the only one with tears on my face that very moment.

As I looked at my blood stained hands,and at the knife,a sudden rage came inside and consumed me. I had never been this angry before. I grabbed Riptide from my side,my hands clutching it so tight,my eyes seething with anger.

I got up,turned around and went towards the forests. Clarisse came to stop me,but the moment she looked at me,i saw her step back.

Fear.

She began to fear this side of me.

"Percy Jackson! Stop right there! The camp is on lock-down,and no-one and especially you goes anywhere tonight!" Mr D. shouted across from the stand as he put in place precautionary measures. In normal circumstances I would be happy that he remembered my name,but tonight,normal wasn't in my dictionary anymore.

"Aarrghhh!" I shouted as I slashed a gaping hole in the shield. No-one,and I meant NO-ONE had ever broken the shield with one slice of a sword. Not even Chiron had done it before. Somehow I did,but I was hell-bent on getting someone else slashed tonight.

I hacked my way through the forest and no one even dared to stop me.

"Come out you coward!" I shouted,not giving a damn if there was even anyone there. I walked around in the darkness,hoping my enemy would come out.

Well,it did.

I soon saw a figure shape-shift in front of me.

Empousai. The filthy beast!

I charged towards it,hacking and slashing at the air while it easily dodged my attack and ran towards Camp. I followed closely on its tail,running towards it till we came to the middle of camp before it stopped. I slid myself to a halt just a few meters behind it,while campers all around drew their arms.

"Percy,let us help."Clarisse put her hand on my shoulder,offering her aid. I refused by pushing her hand away and she got the message immediately. As I charged towards the beast,she turned into Annabeth. Who knows how,but she did,and I couldn't bring myself to stab her even though she was wide open with her guard down.

"Would you dare to kill me,Percy?Kill me then,i'm waiting." Annabeth(Empousai) spun around and walked towards me. She grabbed my hand and placed the blade of Riptide on her neck.

"Kill me." Annabeth taunted me again. My hands started to shake,and soon,i dropped my sword. As the beast started to crack an evil laugh,she said "I must say,i thought Annabeth deserved better. After all,her current state,was all your fault. I suggest you stay away fro-"

Whack!

In my burning anger,i gave the beast I powerful right hook before tackling her to the ground. I wanted to kill her,even if it meant using my bare hands. I continued my punching flurry, and soon the empousai 's shape-shifting powers reverted her to normal.

As she lay beaten and bruised,almost on the brink of death,i grabbed Riptide from the ground and walked over to her bloodied figure on the ground. As I stood over her,sword in hand,she used one last mind game on me,hoping that it would shake my resilience to kill her and that she would be able to keep her wretched life.

"Would killing me save Annabeth?It was your fault! The target was you!She was just a distraction!"

I knew she was right,but I needed to vent my anger on something.

"Shut. Up."

I plunged the knife deep into the monster's neck, something I had never done before. She struggled for a while,before finally disappearing into the air.

Removing my hands from Riptide which was deep into the ground,i looked around me,campers all staring at what I had just done. I saw something in their eyes which I had never seen before,and hat thing was fear.

They had begun to be fearful of me.

"Percy..."Grover muffled through the harsh silence that had enveloped every one.

I couldn't stay.

Running towards my only sanctuary,i fled to the jetty,not stopping at all. I dived into the river,deep deep down,trying to swim as far away as I could. I was a monster!

I lay on the seabed,with hands in my head,and began to ponder about tonight.

It was supposed to be the best night of my life,with Annabeth and me finally confessing our feelings towards each other,and what better way to spend a night with her?

Yet,she lay injured in the Big House,while I killed an empousai with my bare hands. My fellow campers even grew fearful of my sudden outburst of rage.

Tonight was runied.
