Percy POV

I went to Annabeth's house. Maybe I could find her there. I didn't go through the back door. Their house door was open. My heart was jumping out of my body at the thought of Annabeth being hurt.

"Annabeth?! Where are you?" I yelled.

No answer.

"Please can you come out?" I yelled once more.

I went to the window and banged my hands on it in frustration. At the corner of my eye, I could see two bodies on the ground.

Shocked, I shifted my gaze towards them and there she was with Piper.

Tears were falling out of my eyes and I hurried downstairs.

I won't let you go, Annabeth.


Jason POV

Percy's call had left me confused. Nevertheless, I hurried and got my motorcycle. What was wrong?

But if it involves Piper, I have to go.

I reached Piper's house and I heard a bang from their house. I hurried upstairs. I was frantic. I wouldn't let anything happen to Piper. No one except me could touch her or kiss her the way that I did. No one.

I was entering their house while a tearful Percy hurried down the stairs. My heart dropped. Now I knew it. There was something wrong with both the girls.

" Yo, what happened?" I asked him.

No answer. He just kept hurrying down the stairs and I kept following him.

Instead of coming in from the front door, he went through the back door which led to a deserted alleyway.

As soon as I came outside the house and turned left, I could see two bodies on the ground.

My feet automatically moved towards them. And then, I felt as if my whole world had come to an end.

There she was. My Piper. All bloodied and unconscious. Her lips were scratchy and her face was turned to the side. Her legs and arms looked broken. My heart broke. Annabeth wasn't much better. She looked better than Piper though. Only her wrist looked snapped but she had scratches all over her body.

I wasted no time and gently picked up Piper in my arms and carried her. I could see Percy also doing the same.

I brushed Piper's hair out of her eyes. She looked so innocent. I knew that there was a hospital nearby and ran towards it. I looked back to see that Percy wasn't there. Confused I looked forward and Gods. He was running like a demon waiving through the crowd. I ran faster for I knew that if I didn't, Piper would be gone.

I entered the hospital and immediately, two nurses came and rushed to my side.

They started conversing with each other while putting her on a bed.

"Looks like a pretty bad fall. Do you think she'll make it?" One of them asked.

"Hmm. I don't know. I guess Doctor Apollo would have to see for himself." The other said.

Annabeth was already in surgery. They were taking Piper too. Meanwhile, me and Percy had to sign a few papers and call their family.

Their family was... complicated. I told them that I was Piper's boyfriend. Percy told them that Annabeth was his girlfriend.

But their family wouldn't come. Bloody rich a$$es.

I saw Reyna's adoptive mom. She was the one who would be giving Annabeth her treatment after surgery. Percy had gone to get some water and had told me to speak to her.

I cleared my throat. " Um. Hi Mrs. Athena."
