Annabeth's POV
Will was pacing back and forth in the waiting room. It has been about three hour's sense we had gotten here and they took her back to run some test on her about two hours ago. I was sitting here worried out of my mind and no one was here to comfort me. Yeah Will was here but he was also freaking out. We were the only two people here at the moment. I watched him pace and I looked at the clock.
"What could be taking so long?" I asked
"They are running test on her Annabeth I'm sure everything is fine." Will said
"Stop pacing it's not helping!" I snapped at him
He stopped and looked at me. I put my face in my hands and I heard him sigh. Then I felt his hands on my hands pulling them away from my face. I looked at him in the eyes.
"Annabeth I'm sure everything is fine." He told me
"But what if it's not?" I asked him
"Annabeth you have everyone at camp to help you through anything. I guess that is why I have been bothered by the fact that you never told anyone about Luke." He told me
"I told Percy. He knew but no one else could know. I didn't want people to think I was weak for not fighting back." I told him
"Why didn't you fight back?" he asked me
"Miss Chase?" I heard someone say and I jumped up
The doctor looked upset. That scared me.
"Is she okay?" I asked her
Percy's POV
I was talking to my dad and Athena telling them everything I knew about everything with Luke.
"So why didn't you tell anyone about this before all of this happened?" Athena asked me
"Because I promised Annabeth I wouldn't." I told her
"Just because you promise something doesn't mean you have to go through with it." My dad told me
"When you promise something to Annabeth then you have to go through with it or she will never trust you again. I just couldn't let that happen. I know it was wrong but I just couldn't." I told them
Then Nico came in. he looked worried.
"What's wrong?" I asked him
"Thalia just went into labor and is at the hospital." He told me
"Why aren't you there?" I asked him
"I came to get you to have you come with." He told me
"I don't think he is okay to travel Nico." My dad told him
"I'm fine come on." I told him and he grabbed my shoulder.
It felt wired going back through shadow travel again. It still felt like ice stinging your skin and I don't think that was going to change. When we showed up we were in the parking garage. We ran up the steps yeah I was sore from just recovering but I had to be there for Nico because I knew he had to of been freaking out by now. When we made it to the floor that Nico said was the right one he went to the desk and asked where Thalia was. We headed down the hallway and Nico stopped.
"What's wrong?" I asked him
"You need to find Annabeth." He told me in a pained voice.
"What happened what's wrong?" I asked him
"AJ just died." He told me
We stood there for a few minutes in silence and I left to find Annabeth.
Annabeth's POV
"We are sorry Miss. Chase. But your daughter has passed away." The doctor told me and I felt my heart stop.
I was frozen and I could feel the tears welding up in my eyes.
"No, this can't be happening." I said starting to cry more
"We did everything we could but we couldn't bring her back." She told me
Will pulled me into a tight hug and was telling me how sorry he was and that everything would be okay.
"She had Pneumonia in her lungs and just stopped breathing. We tried everything we could but there wasn't anything we could do." She told us
I felt like my whole world had come crashing down around me and I didn't know what to do. I was starting to feel sick and Will lead me to a chair and sat me down. I was sobbing now.
"Percy what are you doing here?" Will asked and I looked up
"Nico told me what happened. Thalia went into labor so we were here and he told me. I'm so sorry Annabeth." Percy told me he looked a little teary eyed himself.
"Where is Thalia?" I asked him trying to keep the tears from falling out of my eyes and failing miserably.
"She is in the delivery room. Come on I can take you guys there if you are up to it." Percy said
"Yeah she was there for me now I'm going to be there for her." I said and stood up whipping my face with my shirt
"Okay lets go." He said and we started walking.
Hey guys I'm sorry it's so short but I broke my collar bone so it is going to take a lot of time to type with only one hand. Sorry guys. -Thalia
