Chapter 3

Annabeth's POV

I knew it was going to be a lot harder to earn the last word.

I mean, I earned two in one day and I didn't think I would earn my third anytime soon.

I let go of Percy's hand and then I started choking for air.

I grabbed Percy's hand again.

Soon, I realized what time it was and told Percy "We have to go."

We shot out of the water and landed softly on the ground.

I kissed Percy on then cheek and walked away.

Later that day in my cabin, I heard some girls talking outside

"I knew she couldn't do it. Annabeth wouldn't last a day without Percy. But…"

It was Ever who was talking.

Ever and group of minions, Peace and Aurora, Heart was mission right now.

They had all the pretty names.

"I know that look," Aurora, Aura for short, said, "are you going to try to break them up?"

"Totally, I mean, Percy and I were meant to be together. I'm pretty and Annabeth is… Ugh!"

Ever was very satisfied with her answer.

They started blabbing about all the ways they could do.

After listening to them for about ten minutes, I decided to walked out there.

But someone shoved a bag over my head and blacked me out.

I woke up in a strange room.

I turned my head and saw Heart filing her nails.

"Are you serious Heart, did you really kidnap me so Ever could get Percy?" I asked angrily.

"Nope, I have a job and my boss wanted you. A real job too, for a god too."

I heard a strange buzzing noise and then "Sorry its my pager. Boss says to go, so, see you."

She disappeared from sight and I groaned.

Oh My Gods, why was I here?

"Because I've been watching you and I like you."

I turned around to where I heard the voice and saw a god wearing a Halloween mask.

"You know, you're really not fooling anyone with that mask."

He took off the mask and revealed himself.

"Yo Poseidon, what's hanging?" I asked.

"Not much," he replied. "Just been hanging out, having my assistant doing things for me. How about you?"

"I've just been hanging out with my friends, plotting to find a way to not have Ever steal Percy away from me. Oh, and I'VE BEEN KIDNAPPED BY RAVING LUNATIC WHO'S SON I'M DATING!"

I shouted that right into his face.

"Annabeth," he ban shaking his head, " you don't have to shout. I know your true feelings for me and I feel the same way."

"You are such a flippin' creeper. Get away from me. And besides, I'm dating Percy remember."

"Not if you don't get your last word before those ten days are up. And you can't earn your word is you're stuck here. Besides, after Percy gets married, I'll just make you a goddess and you can still be related to Percy by becoming his stepmom."

I just chocked on my own spit.

"Okay, stepmom! No way Poseidon! First, Ew! Second, double Ew! And third, I'm just going to go now."

"Fine but you don't get that word and get back to Percy in ten days, you're becoming my wife."

I was already running out the door when h shouted that.
