Annabeth's POV
Where am I? It's really dark... "Seaweed brain?" I whispered into the darkness, hoping for an answer. I got none. I sighed, irritated. What is this feeling? It feels as if... I'm floating? I feel really light, weightless even. However, the only thing that made me decide against it is that i was definitely plunging down, down, into the dark abyss below "What am I thinking... I must think about how to get out, not ask myself questions" I trailed off. Even I didn't know who I was speaking to. This time, I fully took in my surroundings. I then came to the conclusion that:
"I'm in the void!" I said. realisation dawned on me as I smiled for the first time since i got here. "Correct! Took you quite some time! I was beginning to get bored!" A loud and boisterous voice interrupted my train of thoughts. I turned, expecting to see a jolly old man. However, what I saw was the complete opposite. He was a depressed-looking, gothic 10 year old boy. "Hello! My name is φοβερός!(Foverós)"
"Fearful? Why would you name yourself that?" I asked, genuinely curious of what his answer would be. "That is none of your buissness, mortal" Foverós spat out the word mortal with so much venom that I shuddered. Foverós clearly wasn't a fan of mortals. "Listen here, mortal. Do not ask me that question again. You are lucky that you're needed in the plan. If not, you would have been ashes by now." Foverós snapped, clearly very angry. Now, was even more curious as to why he was named fearful.
Suddenly, I had a head-splitting headache. I fought my urge to scream, fighting the scream back down my throat. Initially, I was fine. A minute later, I submitted to the pain. An ear-splitting scream fought its way out of my throat. I fell onto my knees holding my forehead. The stinging pain lasted quite a while, burning my eyes, causing me to squeeze them shut. It felt like someone was squeezing their way inside my head! I found myself losing consciousness, and my eyelids were getting heavier, and heavier, and...
I woke up with my head pounding and all five of my senses on fire. I muttered a few vulgar words before I tried pushing myself up. Keyword: Tried. I couldn't move! It was like my body had a mind of it's own! "Aah, it feels good to have a physical body" came a high-pitched voice. I froze. I didn't move my mouth. Was I... Possessed?
I gaped at the new discovery. I freaked out. What about seaweed brain? Oh no... Suddenly, I started to walk. "It's been so long since i've walked! I've always been floating." He, or rather, she said. I willed my body to stop. "Your body doesn't work when you want to, darling." She told me, grinning.
She's evil! I've got to warn the campers! Wait... If I can't move... How do I warn others? My mind raced a hundred miles per hour, searching for many possibilities and answers. I wracked my brain. What should I do? I was so focused that i didn't notice her talking to my seaweed brain.
"- breaking up with you" Upon hearing her say that, my heart stopped. My blood ran cold. She's impersonating me. To break up with MY seaweed brain? No way! This woman is pure evil! While I was ranting in my thoughts, i heard a girl scream. The person impersonating me took out a dagger and threw it at Percy, the dagger lodging itself in Percy's arm. My mouth was open in shock, my pupils dilating. I opened my mouth in a screaming gesture, but no sound came out. It was as if I was mute. I was as still as a statue, before i let it all out.
I cried, my heart aching. 'Please let this be a dream' I thought, my mind searching for a logical explanation of what happened. It happened so fast. I was desperate for this to end. Please, I begged, please stop this... Please...
