A.N-So sorry I haven't updated, but I didn't know what do to. Okay, either this or the next one will be the last chapter. What do you think? Tell me if I should make another.
Annabeth's P.O.V
I was just walking along the beach to clear my head when suddenly a HUGE wave came up and I got caught in a tide. I tried swimming against the current, but I knew it was useless. I was strong, but not strong enough to fight this. And for a paniced moment, I actually thought I was going to die. I'd go to Hades' kingdom for the last time.
My last thought before I went under and blacked out was,
Percy...

Percy's P.O.V
"Annabeth!" I screamed as I saw her go under. I didn't waste any time. I ran at full speed to the lake and jumped in, commanding the waves to part so it would be easier to get to her. The sea creatures lept out of my path, staring at the son of their lord swimming toward a daughter of Athena like a maniac. They just sat there, until I ordered some of them to keep Annabeth afloat. They weren't to happy about it, but complied.
When I reached her, I was relieved. She was unconcious, but breathing. I made an air bubble around her and started swimming toward shore. I willed the waves to speed me up so she could be attended to.
When I reached shore, Chiron came and took Annabeth. I insisted on going with them, but half-way there I stumbled and collapsed. Using all that power was exhausting and had drained most of my energy. One of the campers had to carry me, I didn't know who, but we arrived at the Big House and I was given some nector and ambrosia. Annabeth still hadn't woken up. I stayed by her bedside. No way was I going to leave her.

On Olympus...
Aphrodite's P.O.V
"APHRODITE!" I heard my name called, very angriliy, by my uncle Poseidon and my half sister Athena. Uh-oh. I'm in trouble.
I tried to hide behind my throne, but they found me and dragged me out into the middle of the throne room. If I could die and looks could kill, I'd be dead twice over.
"Uncle, sister, what a pleasant surprise! What brings you here?" I asked, trying to play it nice and innocent. They didn't buy it. Athena leaned in very close, bared her teeth in a very threatening manner, and growled,
"Why don't you tell us yourself, sister dear? Surely you know why we're here." I gulped. Of course I did. They were here because of Annabeth and Percy and what had just happened. Well, it's not like I planned for Percy to blow up the lake! Course, he was bound to get angry. I guess I could have saw that. Or I could have asked Apollo what would happen. Hmm. I guess I didn't plan this as well as I thought I did. Anyway. Back to my angry relatives.
"Heh-heh, yeah, about that..." Athena interrupted me
"She could have died! Do you know that? How could you be so stupid?!" That made me mad. And getting mad isn't good for my complextion. I'll have to fix that later.
"Well, excuse me, but last time I checked, you were the goddess of wisdom, not me!" Poseidon spoke, and he was just as angry as Athena.
"Yeah, but you could have thought about this more! You do have brains in that pretty little head of yours, don't you?"
"She's fine! He's fine! I don't get my you're so angry!" Athena turned on the T.V that let us see what mortals were doing. She flipped to the Camp Half-Blood channel, where Annabeth was getting cared for and Percy was just sitting next to her, staring at her with the most heart-breaking look on his face, it made me want to cry just looking at him. Athena turned to me and said,
"You call that fine?! You really don't have any brains, do you?"
"ENOUGH!" All three of us jumped. We turned to see Father striding into the throne room, an annoyed expression on his face. He pointed at Athena.
"You, get down there and help your daughter. You," he turned to Poseidon "Talk to your son. And you," Zeus said, turning lastly to me when the others were gone, "Go apologize and make your daughter to the same. I'm sick of you three fighting all the time." When I still stood there, he barked, "Now!"
I went.
A.N-Okay, I'm definintely going to put another chapter in here. This played out differently than I expected, but I like it. Till next time! ;)
