A/N Two in one night I am on FIRE baby! Then again I haven't written in this story in months... and it took my a week and a half to update another story of mine... oh whatever! Judge me if you will! Anyways, this is just a little something I was thinking about, decided to write it. One is Annabeth holding the world, the other is Percy in the Styx (I can't remember the exact wording so I'm improvising, adding some touches here and there ;) )
Italics=Annabeth
Bold=Percy
This is going to crush me. This is how I'm going to die: being crushed by the weight of the world.
Everything's burning. I can feel myself crumbling away into nothing.
My mind's turning to mush. I can barely breathe. Oh gods, I can't do this!
This was a mistake. This was a bad idea. Now we're all going to die.
I hear a voice in my head. A male voice.
"Just hand on, Annabeth!"
Suddenly, there's a laugh above me.
"What do you think you're doing, Seaweed Brain?"
It's Percy's voice.
It's Annabeth's voice.
"I'm coming, Annabeth, I'm coming for you!" He called to me. I closed my eyes, and I could see him running towards me.
I looked up at the surface, and there she is. Annabeth's standing on the dock above me, her hair tucked into her Yankees cap (which is weird, because that means she should be invisible).
I can see Percy kneel down beside me. He places his hands on mine, where they hold the world. His bright green eyes are right in front of me.
"Don't give up yet, Annabeth." He said to me, "I'm right here to help you. We can do this. Together."
"Here, take my hand." She reached down into the water, offering me her hand. I stretched my arm up, and gripped her like a lifeline.
Percy grit his teeth, and pushed. The weight fell from my shoulders and I tumbled down to the floor. My eyes shot open, and I saw Artemis standing above me, the weight now moved to her shoulders.
She pulled, and I tumbled onto the shore of the River Styx.
