(If I die young by The Band Perry)
Percy's POV
"Annabeth!" I screamed
She looked at me, sadness in her eyes. My heart sank. She took a poisoned knife so it wouldn't hit my Achilles heel. She risked her own life for me.
"Per-cy" Annabeth gasped. I dropped to her side. "Annabeth..."I cried."I'm going to call down Blackjack, just wait, he'll take you to the medics." I whistled and Blackjack came soaring down from a skyscraper.
"Take Annabeth to the Plaza ." I scrambled trying to talk and lift Annabeth onto Blackjack at the same time. She only weighed 110 pounds so she wasn't that heavy. Annabeth yelped in pain as I picked her up by her waist.
2 Weeks Later
*Paat* *Paat* The sound of the rain hit my umbrella.
It was the day of Annabeth's funeral.
I watched my feet as they carefully manuvered around gravestones and markers. I looked up once and saw Frederick Chase on his knees in the muddy graveyard screaming strings of curses at the sky.
As her casket was slowly lowered into the 6-foot hole, tears cascaded down my cheeks.
She was gone. She wasn't coming back. There was no happy ending. She was gone.
I brought my head up to looked at the casket still being lowered. Annabeth was in that, that box! She should be buried like a queen not just some person who died! She should be buried in Satin and instead of a plain old coffin , why not a beautiful rose covered coffin? She deserved better.
After the funeral was over and her casket was in the ground, my cheeks were puffy and red. My mom tried to comfort me but, nothing could help.
I had just proposed to Annabeth! The little sea green ring on her left hand finger, she was buried with it on.
One knife had taken all that away. One stupid knife.
We were going to have little babies and they were going to like swimming and they were going to super smart. Stupid Ethan Nakamura. If I ever see that kid again I swear I'll kill him.
I remember what she said to me in the lawn chair right before she died.
"The sharp knife of a short life. Well I've had just enough time."
After she said that, her eyes fluttered and she kissed me then died.
