PPOV

I was at the beach sitting down near the water. My cut has gotten a lot worse. The infection had increased and now everytime I walk I feel like my bones are on fire. It's been making me feel sick and making me act weird for the past few weeks. I haven't been talking to anyone lately, not even Grover. Just last week he asked me what was bothering me and I just told him to leave me alone. I don't know why a simple cut could make me act this way, but it will eventually go away... I hope.

The past two weeks for the contest have been really tough for me, also. I've still been winning every single battle so far, but after I've won I literally feel like I'm going to pass out because the pain in my right side hurts so much. But tomorrow Grover is going to anounce the two people who have won the most battles, and then I'll have to verse one more person and then this stupid contest will be over. I just hope that I won't get myself killed in the process.

Every night now I've been dreaming about Annabeth and what she said to me last month. I couldn't believe that she said that to me, but then again, I'm the one that ticked her off so it was partly my fault. But hopefully I would get over it eventually, hopefully I would get over her eventually, but that will probably never happen since I see her everyday. I could still try, though.

After a while I decided to get and go back to my cabin so that I could get enough sleep for tomorrow. I limped back to my cabin as slowly as possible. Thanks to the cut it was getting a lot harder to walk, but luckily no one was really noticing.

When I got into my cabin I immediately walked to the bathroom to put on some new bandages. It was becoming a daily routine for me I finished I changed into a plain white T-shirt and sweat pants and got into bed. I prayed to every god that I knew that tomorrow the pain in my side would not hurt as bad so that I could win the last battle for the contest, but I knew not to get my hopes up. When I finished praying I immediately fell asleep five seconds later, still hoping that my pain would stop.

The next day my side didn't hurt as bad, but it still hurt a lot. I went to the bathroom to get some new bangages, but I realized that I didn't have ay left. I didn't have time to steal some from the infirmary so I decided I just had to deal with a shirt being over the cut. I got up and carefully put a shirt on and got changed into my armor and limped slowly to the Arena. When I arrived most of the campers were already there, including Annabeth. I sat down next to Nico who was staring into space.

"Earth to Nico." I said while waving my hand infornt of his face. He snapped out of it immediately and frowned.

"Hey Percy." He said sounding a bit annoyed.

"What's wrong?" I asked

"Nothing." Was all he said in responce. I could tell that he was just in one of his moods so I decided to let the subject drop. I turned all of my attenchion to Grover who was telling everyone to stop talking and to listen to him. When the whole Arena was silent he began to make his speech.

"For the past month each of you have been battling each other. Many of you did very well, but only two of you have won the most battles out of all of you. After I anounce their names, they will both come up here and hve one last battle versing each other. Whoever wins will be the ultimate champion and will be rewarded with the showers first for there cabin, it won't matter if they pass cabin inspection and they will be rewarded with five hundred gold dracama's."

"Say the names already!" someone yelled from the Hermes cabin. Grover got a really embarressed look on his face but continued.

"Anyway, the two people who have won the most battle's for the past month are Percy jackson and Annabeth Chase.

Of course, I thought to myself.

There were afew gasps and everyones eyes grew wide accept for Grover's. Annabeth was giving me an evil eye. I ignored it and walked to the front of the Arena, Annabeth soon followed. We stared at each other for an awkward fifteen seconds until Grover told us to get our weapons ready. I raised my sword, followed by the agonizing pain returning to my side. I gasped lightly from how much it hurt. Annabeth looked at me strangely while she raised her sword as well.

I was already breathing hard, even though we didn't even start battling yet. I could feel a small fever returning to my head as I got into position. I started to sweat, I could tell by Grover's face that he knew something was bugging me, but luckily he didn't say anything.

We waited until Grover yelled the word "GO!" and we started to fight. I fought as hard as I possibly could with a large cut at my side. Annabeth was already beating me, not even two minutes into the battle. She had nearly tripped me twice with her sword and cut me a few times on my arms, but I managed.

After about five mintues into the battle I began to get into it and I fought harder. The pain subsided a little bit so I was able to fight a lot better. But that changed when Annabeth hit my cut.

I yelled out in pain. I held my side for a couple of seconds before I had to block again from Annabeth's sword. We began to fight again until Annabeth hit my cut once more.

"Gods, Annabeth!" I said nearly screaming. "Please stop hitting my side."

She slashed at my again with her sword, not even noticing that I was in pain.

"Why?" she asked while still slashing at me, " So you can beat me?"

"No!" I screamed. She hit my cut once again. This time I couldn't take the pain. I crashed to the ground while holding my side. I was breathing very hard and it took all my will power not to horribly scream. Annabeth had the tip of her sword pointed at my throat. Grover anounced that Annabeth had won and all of the campers cheered, especially the Athena cabin. But when they noticed I wasn't getting up they turned there attention back to me.

Grover held out his hand to help me up. I took it and I slowly and carefully got up so that the pain wouldn't increase. Annabeth was staring at me with a worried look on her face. I was still breathing incredibly hard, I guess I was kind of making it obvious that I was hurt.

"Percy, are you okay?" Annabeth asked.

"Yeah I'm fine." I said back harshly, "and why do you care?" Her face looked even more upset. My cut was suddenly making me act weird again, I didn't mean to be acting so angry.

Grover seemed to have noticed me still holding on to my side. He looked at me with a puzzled expression.

"Percy, let me see your side." He demanded.

"No, I'm fine." I said back.

"Well then if you're fine, let me see your side." He said again.

"There's no point in seeing my side if I'm fine." Grover gave me an annoyed look, I could tell he wasn't going to take no for an answer.

"Percy, just let me see your side!" He said

"No!" I yelled

"Percy! Let. me. see. your side." He said again.

"Fine." I finally said. I knew that he was going to make a big deal out of the cut, but it was nothing I couldn't handle... I guess.

I lifted the right side of my shirt. Grover seemed stunned at first looking at the huge, disgusting, nearly bleeding, yellow cut. Annabeth looked at it as if she were about to barf. All of the other campers had to lean forward from where they were sitting to see it. There was a big amount of gasps and a few people even gagged.

"When and how did you get that Percy?" Grover asked

"Two weeks ago while I was swimming, I hit a sharp patch of coral." I replied

"That's infected, Percy." Annabeth said.

"I know." I said while nodding my head. They still looked shocked at how bad it looked, but after I put my shirt down their looks from worry turned into anger.

"Why didn't you tell Chiron about this?" Grover yelled

"He would've stopped me from training." I said plainly

"That's why i've been seeing you limp everywhere!" Grover said

"um, yeah?" I said, but it came out like a question.

"Percy, do you think this is funny?" Annabeth asked.

"Once again, why do you care?" I asked

"Because you're hurt!" She said

"I'm going to get Chiron." Grover said while starting to walk away. I grabbed his shoulder and spun him around.

"Don't." I said while getting angrier and angrier.

"I have to, Percy!" He said. I looked at him, then I looked back at Annabeth, then I looked at all of the campers staring at me as if I were crazy. I had to get out of there.

I ran out of the arena before anyone could stop me. I took off my armor and threw it on the gound, not caring where it landed. I ran into the forest, eager to get away from everyone.

APOV

How could Percy keep something like this a secret for two weeks? He was badly hurt and it was my fault it was this bad now.

After Percy ran out nobody said a single word. I was going to go after him but Grover stopped me quickly.

"Why was he acting so strange?" I asked

"He's been acting like that for two weeks. Probably right after he got that cut." Grover said

"Well we have to tell Chiron, now!" I yelled

"The rest of you go back to your regular camp activity's." Grover said to the rest of the campers who watched the whole thing. When they all cleared out, Grover and I ran out of the Arena to go find Chiron.

PPOV

I was just walking along the creek in the forest, kicking rocks and pebbles with my shoe. I was just trying to clear my head, my mind didn't feel quite right.

All was quiet until I heard footsteps behind me. I turned, but no one was there. I ignored the idea of someone following me and coninued walking. I heard footsteps coming from behind me again. I turned around once more and ended up face to face with probably the worst person that could've shown up right now. Athena

A/N: I really do hate cliff hangers. don't you? but not when I'm the person telling the story and I know what's going to happen! mwahahahahah! Anyway. I didn't get as far as I wanted to in the chapter. But if I did get that far then this chapter would be WAY too long! Anyway, sorry that this one took me so long but please review even if you hate me now! REVIEWS ARE VERY APPRICIATED! THNX! ;)

Awsomekelly is sighning OFF!
