Annabeth POV:

Day 4: Missing Percy.
Day 5: Training the camp rookies; thinking of Percy joke around in training.
Day 6: Swordfight with Luke…mistaken his face to Percy's.

Day 9: Laying in bed, crying.
Day 10: Attempted to find Percy till Luke stopped me.
Day 11: Piper apologized because she heard everything from Jason.
Day 12: My heart bursted from anticipation…needed Percy with me. Thalia came back also.
Day 13: Trying to discover why I am feeling this feeling.

Day 15: Cried in the bedroom.
Day 16: Trained camp. Need to stay on focus.
Day 17: Getting treated by Piper from the pain feeling in my heart.
Day 18: Noticing Thalia ignoring me. Have to know why.
Day 19: Thalia and I fight. She won't tell me the reason.
And that is what is happening right now. She is stubborn enough to not tell me the reason.
"Why are you ignoring me?"
"I'm not, okay?"
"FINE! I know you're mad at me."
"Yeah, I am," she yelled in anger. "Because you hurt Percy!"
She closed her mouth.
"What?"
"Percy…" she said, tears falling down. "I met him. That guy you liked. He seemed to be in a lot of pain. Nico sensed it as well."
"Who's Nico?"
"My friend," she said. "You know Annabeth…I can't believe I am saying this, but you changed. A lot. And so did Luke. You guys should be the changing couple. I don't know if you noticed, but Percy…gosh, you're such an idiotic girl! You left your friend."
"He lied to me," I said, realizing my feelings. They were recollecting. I know I hurt Percy…but…realizing my feelings…why was I thinking of him? Wasn't I supposed to get mad at him? But he died down my anger, making me feel a worried feeling about him. That's not supposed to happen. Shouldn't I be mad? Wait…why am I feeling this way? WHY?!
"Annabeth, " Thalia said gently, which surprised me. I soon got descriptions of Thalia, Piper, Jason…everybody. And soon, I recognized them one by one. And now, realizing the punk style Thalia speaking gently with care towards me…surprising. "You have to realize that you hurt Percy. He helped you through-,"
"But he lied to me!"
"He lied to make you happy," she said, her eyes not even showing a bit of frustration.
"He hid a huge block of my past-,"
"Annabeth, you're such an idiot. Think for a minute; why would Percy hide the past to you?"
"Thalia, stop treating me as an idiot. I know. He didn't want to ruin or friendship."
"Bingo," she said. "But what does that show?"
"He's being a jerk."
"No Annabeth," Thalia said. "I know you know the answer I'm expecting. You know that."
And it was true. I knew the exact words she wanted to make me say. He cared for me. Percy thought of our friendship into a whole new level. He made me feel special. He protected me. He helped me conquer all my pain. And though he gave me pain as well, we went through the hardships together.
"Say it Annabeth. Say what I want to hear."
"He's a jerk-,"
"Can I just spill it out?" Thalia asked. Thought I saw frustration; instead, I saw sadness.
"What?" I glared, this time wanting Thalia out. She's making me feel quite guilty.
"Percy loves you. It's not even like. It's love."
"Excuse me-,"
"By his actions…it's so true. Percy Jackson is in love with you."
"What are you-,"
"He's not going to admit it. He's in the process where he can't believe his own feelings. But you crushed them. I told him to come to camp because he helped you…but he just ran away, saying that you…you called him a monster. Annabeth, I really expected better than that. You know Percy went through hard times. You know he grasped your hands no matter what happened."
"But in the past-,"
"That's the thing Annabeth," Thalia said, holding the handle of the door, speaking the last words of wisdom before she left. "You're only thinking of the past. A rose can bloom with sunshine and water, and wither without them. Percy's your sunshine and water, and since you decided to live strong without it, you're withering. That's life Annabeth. That's life."
And when she closed the door, I cried, thinking of how foolish I was to live such life.
"Percy's your sunshine and water, and since you decided to live strong without it, you're withering."
And maybe that is true. I am slowly withering.
Percy POV:
The guards took a really good head start. I can't be caught…but my energy was low. No food…no shelter…and no joke, Lupa has been chasing me constantly. That stupid wolf literally wants to shred me to pieces, eating me up. And I despise that wolf.
"GET HIM! YOU CAN NOT LOSE HIM!" General Ares shouted, and soon I felt a hand grab my shoulder, lifting me up. It was General Oliver, and I tried to wriggle from his grasp.
"LET ME GO! LET ME-,"
"You're not even heavy," General Ares said. "That's quite said."
"DAD!" I saw a girl shout, which was this strong girl with muscular arms. She seemed to laugh at me.
"Clarisse-,"
"Hilarious!" she snickered. "What's his name?"
"Percy-,"
"Hi Prissy," she gritted her teeth when I shot her a glare.
"Well, let's go and return him into the palace. You shall be killed tonight-,"
"LET ME GO-,"
"Dad, he looks so hilarious! Such a pity he can't get off your grasp!"
I blasted water at General Ares. He didn't notice that it was my powers though. He blames another guard because he had an empty bucket.
"YOU-,"
"SORRY!" the guard said although he clearly was confused.
"DAD! GOT HIM!" Clarisse shouted, and soon she had me in our grasp. "Let's get him to the palace."
? POV:
"Your highness, he's here."
"Is he?" I said, feeling the walnut crack against my touch.
"Yes your highness. As promised, we said that he would get his death tonight."
"Good," I said uneasily, feeling a pang of guilt.
"Your highness…do you want to see him before his death?"
"Yes please," I said, my voice getting shaky. I was getting anticipated. What if…what if he realizes-
"Your highness, do you need a glass of water?"
"Yes please," I said, and when he went out, I looked at the ceiling, waiting to know the truth.
"Hope this is not real," I whispered.
Annabeth POV:
Percy…
I can sense he's in danger…
I can just feel it in my guts…
It's like I have some sort of connection towards him…
But I just feel it…
It's like as if we have some sort of connection…
He's in danger.
And it's up to me to save him…
But how?
I need to find out…
Percy POV:
"LET ME-,"
And they put a gag in my mouth, letting me silent automatically. They put chains on my wrists and ankles. We were in a barn.
I couldn't be free.
I couldn't even cry. I was frightened. Today's my death day, I thought to myself. I couldn't even see Annabeth. I couldn't even kiss her. I couldn't even-
"You're a monster…but why isn't he turning into a-,"
"Her highness is coming through!" I heard a guard's voice, and a guy stepped on my hand to greet her highness.
My ring fell off.
And I quickly turned into a monster. Stupid man. This is proving I am a monster. No…this can't be…this just can't be-
"This is the monster you've been wanting to see," they said, recognizing I turned into a monster. My gag fell off, and I glared at the woman.
"So…" she said, her voice shaky. She has choco brown hair with a few grey streaks. Her smile was scrunched up, but seemed to hide her personality. Her eyes changed colors to the light. She wore all black, but some part of me showed this wasn't her style. She looked like the queen…but this look seems weird. Maybe she is. But whatever was in my brain…
I felt a spark.
"So…Percy Jackson…" she said, her eyes watering up. "You're the monster?"
"You led me to this," I glared at her. I felt hatred…but at the same time…calmness. It felt weird. It felt as if she possessed me…but in a good way.
"Guards, leave this room."
"Your highness-,"
"LEAVE!" she screamed, letting the guards scurry and close the door. She kneeled down, and with her soft fingers, she lifted my face.
"Percy…is that you?"
"Huh?" I asked, and I can see her getting teary eyed.
"You've grown…"
"Who are you?"
Her face was pained, and she started to cry. "I'm so sorry Percy."
"Yeah, you should be," I muttered. "You're sentencing me to death."
"No…" she said, crying harder. "I was the cause. I would stop your sentence…but…"
"I don't care," I said, gritting my teeth. "Whoever you are, you just give me hardships. You were the cause, if you hadn't noticed. You're the CAUSE. I'm going to die today…night…"
"Poseidon…"
"How do you know my father's name-,"
"Perseus," she said, and my eyes widened. How did she know my name? Actually…my full name. My mind boggled. Only Dad, Mom, and Tyson knew.
Tyson.
"If you regret this decision this much," I whispered because my voice was dying down as I became weaker and weaker. "Let me see Tyson."
I had forgotten him for so long, and the woman cried. "Tyson…he got married. I'm very proud-,"
"HOW ON EARTH DO YOU KNOW THAT TYSON-,"
"Please don't shout," she cried, and wiped her tears. "Don't get shocked."
"Who are you anyways?" I glared, and tears fell down.
"Don't get shocked," she said. "I'm your mother…Sally Jackson…the queen of the country."
