Hey well I'm going to try and finish this story because next Friday, 10th, I will be going to Paris for the summer( YEAH!!!!!!) so I don't know if I would be able to update there but anyways Read and REVIEW!!!!
( RECAP) Percy's POV
I logged off and then something popped up on the screen. The clue.
here's your next clue,
"Something that she treasures but only one knows what,
read it carefully or you'll be cut"
What am I, Percy?
I wrote it down and walked down stairs. I didn't get? The last clue I was suppose to find something? But what? I didn't have time because once I walked down stairs I saw Luke and three titans holding Mr and Ms. Chase. Malcolm laid down on the floor with blood on his shirt.
" Surprise" Luke said.
Percy's POV
Now I know what you might expect me do. I would battle Luke in a sword fight. Kill the titans and save everyone all in one hour, that's what happen right? Wrong! I stood there frozen in terror. Not sure what to do or even think. I didn't even take out riptide. Luke started to walk toward me withan evil grin on his face. Anger welled up inside me. I wanted to smack that smile of his face and make him wish he was back in the fiery deeps of Tartarus. But still...I did nothing.
" Nice to see you again, Percy" slowly his lips moved.
" What are you doing here?" I said quickly. I was surprise I actually said something. In the living room Annabeth's two baby brother played with blocked and toys. Bobby started to laugh. I looked at Ms. Chase. Her eyes weren't full of hate but she looked scared....for her own children. I had to get Luke out of there before he would hurt the kids. On the ground, Malcolm groaned.
" Just checking up to see how the hunt is going" Luke snarled.
" Let them go and we can settle this somewhere else" I said.
" So you want to play the hero this time....I don't think so"
My mind started reeling. I needed to figure out the clue before Luke would get in the way. What was one thing that Annabeth treasured? Something I could read. Her father knew her best. He would know the answer. But how could I asked him without Luke knowing I knew the answer.
" Where's Annabeth?" I asked.
Luke only laughed " Somewhere, where you'll never find her"
This time I moved forward and took out Riptide.
" I'm just here to set you off to course. Mess you up, a little bit"
" I doesn't matter what you do. I will find her" I said.
" Well see about that" He said. Then he lunged forward. I sidestepped. A huge iris message came into place. The Titans holding Annabeth's father and stepmom disappeared as Luke pushed me toward the image. Instead of making the Isis message fade away I went right through it. I tumbled right into a couch. Luke jumped through.
" Now I will finish you off" he said. I looked at Mr. Chase. He nodded. The he picked up Malocolm and came through the picture too. Placing Malcolm down on the couch I pushed Luke toward the door. I ran over to Annabeth's dad.
" What is one thing that Annabeth's treasures? Something I can read?"
" Is that the clue?"
"Yes"
" Um....her diary"
" Ok. Thanks" then just as the image was about to go away he jumped back into the other side. I heard a scream. Turning around I saw my mother and Paul run out of there room. The Iris message lead to their house. My house! Why was Luke taking me back to my house? I didn't have time to figure it out because he came out of nowhere and hit me on the back. I fell to the floor and rolled over just as he hit the ground with his sword. I jumped up and my sword hit his. We fought on and on but no one was winning. Then before I knew it Luke kicked my sword out my hands and sent it spinning to the floor and out of me reach.
" Percy!" My mother called.
" Stay there are you son dies" Luke said with his sword point to my throat. I backed up but he followed. We were in the kitchen.
" You want to know a secret, Percy" he said " Something about Annabeth"
I pause. Was this what Annabeth didn't want me to know or find out? I remained silent.
" You see Percy, Annabeth never told you everything about her. Remember last summer when you went on the quest inside the Labyrinth. Annabeth and me did talk. I gave her a chance. She lied to all of yall. She did want to become a Titan and see would of worked if it wasn't for the fact that you lived. The plan was working. You were suppose to leave camp and live with Calypso. So when you were gone....I would pick up the pieces for Annabeth. So know that she's hidden from you. I can do that. Say goodbye to your precious little girlfrie-"
I tacked him. Taking a knife from my moms kitchen I held it to his throat.
" That's not true" I spat.
" What about the note you read. She knew what Kronos might do. Either way you to would never be together" He was right. If Annabeth knew that kronos might use her she would never like me again. And if he did use her then....then what.
" Your wrong " I said.
" Maybe when your out of picture Annabeth would like me again."
" Shut up" I yelled. Luke started to laugh. Then when I stuck the knife through him he disappeared. Just out of thin air. I knelt there on the floor, thinking. My mom rushed over.
" Percy are you ok"
" Yeah...um...sorry"
" No no!!! Um I'll go get some nectar for your friend" She said and left. Malcolm! I ran over to where Mr. Chase laid him down.
" Malcolm" I said ", you ok"
He only groaned. His stomach had a stab wound.
" Did...you get...the clue" He asked.
" Yes....we need to get back to camp"
OHHHHH What will Percy and Malcolm do next? What more can Percy find out about Annabeth by reading her diary? Read and REVIEW!!!! Oh and Happy 4th of July!!
