A/n- okay, so thanks for all the reviews. But sadly this story will be on hold until I get Microsoft word that isn't a trial because my trial end May 31st. So I will be writing as many chapters as possible between now and then. I will be writing them at my house then transferring them to a flash drive to add them either at school or my sisters. I really am sorry but I will be finishing this story if it's the last thing I do because I have yet to finish a story that I wanted to. I want this to be the first story I finish. I love all my reviewers and I hope that you will look for my return. Now, for the new chapter, I hope you enjoy as always =)

Percy's POV

It was a long day with capture the flag after dinner. It's a shame that we lost, but hey it's whatever. I walked out of the bathroom after my hour long shower. Yes, I know what you're thinking. How can a male take as long as a girl in a bathroom? Well, I love water, so I try to stay in as much as possible. Besides, I was healing the wounds I had received during the match. I walked out to find Annabeth curled up in my bed.

I shook her awake. "Annabeth, you need to wake up."

"I'm awake," she muttered, sitting up. She patted the bed behind her.

I crawled in to my bed, lying near the wall. She was facing towards the center of my cabin. "You were dreaming about Mason and Alyssia weren't you?" I asked softly.

She nodded, turning to face me. "I just wonder why we left them. That wouldn't be like us to leave anyone we care about behind, you know?"

"Yeah, maybe Chiron didn't want the other campers to be alarmed by half half-bloods," I suggested. "Maybe, we didn't want them in harm's way so we left them were we knew they would be safe."

She tried a smile. "I can't believe we just die after all we've been through."

"It sucks that we won't be alive to see our children win this war," I put my arm around her. "But let's not think about that right now. It's something that we can't really change."

She nodded and come closer. I bent down and kissed her. She kissed me back.

Thalia's POV

I was still sitting on the beach when one of my Hunters's joined me. "Haleigh," I muttered as she sat down.

"A lot on your mind?" she asked softly. I turned to face a girl that was no more than nine. She had big, loving green eyes and auburn hair.

"Yes," I replied. "Camp just brings back fond memories."

"What memories? If you don't mind me asking," she added quickly.

"My years as a young traveler, a tree, and my favorite activities," I replied. "It's amazing how much this camp has changed in just a year."

"Do you miss being a camper," her green eyes met mine.

"Every day," I nodded.

"But it will be worth seeing the change in a hundred years," Artemis said.

"Lady," I nodded.

"I will leave," Haleigh muttered, leaving quietly.

"You wish to speak to me?" I asked almost informally.

"Do you wish to leave the Hunters?" Artemis glanced at me. When I couldn't answer, she asked, "What made you join the Hunters. The whole reason," she added.

"Mainly because I didn't want to be the child of the prophecy, I couldn't make the decision that Percy made. I couldn't give the dagger to someone that had once been my friend," I glanced up at the moon.

"I have a feeling that isn't the only reason," Artemis said.

"Well, I was angry at Luke," I added.

"And?" she pressed me.

"I couldn't pass up the chance at a great amount of power," I dropped my head, sheepishly.

"Power is your fatal flaw, is it not?" she asked.

"Yes."

"Be careful on what you do. You shouldn't do something because power is involved. Do something that you wish to do," she said, solemnly.

Before I could protest, she had disappeared. I sat there, wondering what Artemis and Nico meant. I will ask Annabeth and Percy tomorrow during breakfast.

Percy's POV

I love spending time alone with Annabeth, but it was late and against the rules for Annabeth to stay in my cabin. "Annabeth," I muttered as I broke our last kiss. "You need to go back to your cabin."

"Why can't I stay here?" she asked.

"Because we both know it's against the rules," I tried. I kissed her once more before she put her cap back on and left. I was lying in my bed when Nico appeared next to it. "What are you doing here?"

"I don't know what to do," he started to pace.

"Is this about Thalia?" I asked. He nodded.

"I'm crazy about her, but she can't tell," he finally sat down. I saw a flash of lighten and knew Zeus didn't like his comment.

"It'll take a while, man," I muttered.

"I think Aphrodite is out to get me," he looked like he was ready to throw something. "I just hate it."

"I did too, but it'll be worth it," I replied.

"It's just forbidden," he announced frustrated.

"What is forbidden?" Thalia asked as snuck in. Annabeth wasn't too far behind her.

"Guys, it's late," I tried to change topics.

"You're not getting me to change subjects, Seaweed Brain," Thalia said. "Now, what is forbidden?"

"Nothing, it isn't important," Nico said. "Don't expect me at the table in the morning."

"Okay, do what you have to do," Percy said. "I vote that you should go to a different country for the night."

"I think I'm going to the Underworld," Nico replied.

"What's going on?" Thalia demanded.

"I'll be back tomorrow afternoon. I'm going to speak to Bianca," he shrugged. "I could use her advice." He looked at everyone before shadow travelling away.

A/n- so next chapter, maybe some more intimate moments with Percy and Annabeth. I don't put a lot of them in here because I don't want to seem too OOC. Nico visits Bianca. What could their chat be about?
