AN: Hey guys! So, I did in fact spell check it and read it through, but I am losing sleep so dont be afraid to tell me so I can fix it. Thanks!


Piper felt selfish when she walked toward the doors of death. She knew she would never let Jason close the doors. She couldn't believe she could think of something like that. She couldn't let her friends suffer the fate she was refusing for her boyfriend. It made her insides twist into a knot, and her head burn with horrible thoughts. Her face feel with emotional pain.

She stared at the doors and wondered. They looked just like the gates outside a graveyard, calling for anyone near it to its death. It wasn't really radiating a sad feeling, but it wasn't exactly a happy feeling either. It was more like she was falling into pudding. It was cold yet warm.

If Jason were to close the doors, Piper wouldn't know what to do. He was her, sadly, first love. She would never admit it to anyone, but she had never loved anyone like she loved Jason before. I guess Jason made her happy in a way she hadn't been in a while, which was saying something. If he died today, she would lose all of that, everything she had finally felt would disappear. That is something she wouldn't be able to handle.

If Leo closed the doors, she would lose one of her best friends. He always had a joke he could tell to cheer everyone up when they were in a bad mood. He was always there for them, even though they forgot him most of the time. He always had a certain way to save everybody, even though it could get him killed. If he closed the doors it would seem like some sick joke.

If Percy closed the doors, someone who understood would disappear. Percy always understand any problem that doesn't have to do with the emotional girls. Sure the guy could tell you exactly how you could take care of a hell-hound with only one hand, but he was clueless when it came to his girlfriend. Anything else, and he could be the biggest help.

If Annabeth were to close the doors, the wisest friend would be gone. Annabeth would always know what to do. It could be about some homework assignment you didn't know how to do and she would be able to help you. She wished Annabeth was here now, so she could tell her how to get them out. Her plan would be perfect, worthy of Athena.

If Hazel closed the doors, she would lose one of the kindest people ever to live on this planet. hazel may be living for the second time on this world, but she deserves every extra minute she received. Hazel always had an ear for anyone who needed to let something off their chest. Whenever Piper was having any problem, Hazel would see it and try to help her with it. She was just the sweetest and caring person Piper would ever find in her life time.

Then there was Frank, the big panda. As much as Piper would love not to say this, she had to admit that if he closed the doors they would each lose a piece of their heart. Frank may seem all tough on the outside, but on the inside he's a loveable teen who has lost everything. Piper knew his grandmother was dead, she just didn't want to tell him. She saw her die in her knife, but didn't want to tell him. She knew that his grandmother was the last of his family.

Altogether she didn't want anyone want to shut the doors, but is was something that she knew had to be done. She didn't know who was going to close the doors, and quite frankly she didn't want to find out herself. They were so close to that moment, that Piper was starting to panic. She didn't want to lose her friends yet, or ever.

From the corner of her eye she could see Leo walking forward, then stepping back with a little panic in his eyes. She wondered what was going on with him lately, he had been so distant recently. She could see the movement in his eyes before it happened. He stepped closer again, so she turned to see if anyone else noticed. Jason looked back at her with a worried look, he saw it too.

That's when the doors opened and she saw an orange t-shirt...
