Hey guys. So sorry. I have been so busy. First family was over. Next my computer crashed and I had to fix it. Next I went on a family trip for two weeks, then I had baby and house sitting. I will try my hardest to post twice a week. You are awesome, but guys I also need some motivation. I don't know if you guys really like this story and I don't know how much longer I want to continue this. I need to know if you guys like this and want me to continue.

Percy's POV

…I'm dying.

"What?" My mood changes to worried.

"Percy, having this baby will kill me. I have cancer still and so I am weak and having our baby might kill me." Weary, Annabeth doesn't meet my eyes.

"Hey look at me." Annabeth turns her head. I stare straight into those stormy eyes, even the rain was starting to come. "I love you so much and I am sorry for the fight we had before, we will make it through together and both you and the baby will be fine. This time I will make sure to be there. Forget Echidna. I will proyect my family, protect you. I will not leave you and I am sorry I did before, but I promise I will die before that happens again." Now the rain from the stormy clouds have fallen. Annabeth sniffles and wraps her arms around me. "Annabeth will you forgive me?"

"You are forgiven, always have been. I also know you will be there for me along with protecting me and our child, you are a great husband and you will be an even better father." I lift Annabeth up and twirl her around. Now real rain starts to pour, but Annabeth and I just stand there wrapped in one another's arms. I smile at her beautiful face. Her lips curl upward as well. I lean in and feel the softness of her lips against mine. For once I will be here. I will fix this. I will hold tight to what I hold most dear, even if it kills me. I pull away and I look down. "Percy!" My arms wrap tighter around the figure in my arms. I twist and fall to the ground, making sure I take the impact of the fall. I gently push Annabeth off and jump to my feet. I reach into my jeans and pull out my ballpoint pen, riptide. I take off the cap and it grows into a full-grown sword, shining bronze. I lift it up and back up to where Annabeth lays.

"Ha! You cant protect everyone, Percy Jackson! You may be here protecting your wife and child, but I am the queen, the goddess, the mother of all monsters and you know there are many out there and I have control over all over all of them. I mean right now your own mother could be cowering at the feet of one of my monsters."

"No! You let her go."

"Oh, but Percy there are more who are important to you then your mother, what about your precious camp. It is most likely surrounded. What about friends who live in their own apartment or house? Face it Percy you can't protect everyone."

"Echidna. Please end this. If you don't I will have to send you back to Tartarus."

"Percy what do you think will happen if you kill me?"

"I think my family will be safe."

"Wrong! Say goodbye to everyone! I f I die they die!"

"Then kill me. I have many to protect and if my death saves them so be it!" I drop riptide and bow.

"Percy what are you thinking?" Annabeth whispers.

"I will do anything for you. I would do anything for anyone, even if I have to die for it. I guess my Fatal Flaw will be the death of me." I smile and laugh only slightly. "Now Echidna, what do you say? The most powerful demigod bends before you awaiting death and no one will stop you. Once I am dead, you will be the most respected monster for defeating the great Percy Jackson. Isn't that what you want?"

"Jackson! Don't you dare." A scream comes from behind me.

"This sounds very pleasing, but unfortunately there is a plan for you, so you must be alive. On the other hand she can be disposed of and that is why I am here." Echidna shifts her hand to point at Annabeth. "With her here, you will never be ready for what's ahead. You can't be worrying about something. You can't have a family, you can't be happy." I sigh.

"It's a shame for you, because I can't let that happen."

"Percy the gods who have planned this will be ashamed."

"Wait gods. Aren't they done with messing with me. I mean gods come on I am done with them. Who is it?"

"Percy some minor gods are mad at the major gods and want them destroyed. The only way to destroy the gods is to have a man as powerful as them and a god. They want you the strongest demigod. Now enough talk it's time to kill Annabeth Chase."

"Over my dead body!"

"That can be arranged." Echidna pounces at Annabeth and I, but I was ready. I swoop down and grab my sword. I just hope my friends and family can take care of themselves. I stand tall and arch my sword. A screech from above my head comes and then yellow dust comes raining down. I take a deep breath and recap my sword.

"Some way to start out the new family." I smile, but a hand comes flying. I feel a sting on my cheek. "Annabeth?"

"I told you don't you dare. You were just going to give yourself up just like that? Percy you have a family now! You can't just go and get yourself killed. I might die and then there is no one left to take care of our baby. He or she needs it's father and I need my husband, so don't ever get to loyal and get yourself killed."

"I am sorry. I just want you to be safe."

"Percy I can take care of myself. It's you who I worry about."

"Don't worry about me." I lean in and kiss Annabeth. "I love you."

"I love you too. Know lets figure out what to do about this minor issue with the minor gods."
