Chapter 20: I have something to tell you
Jason gulped. "I-I kind of have something to tell you guys."
The rest of the group stared at him curiously, staying silent and waiting for him to go on.
Jason took a deep breath. "Annabeth is the Waffle Thief."
"WHAT?!" Everyone shouted in unison. All of them had very different reactions to that.
Leo has flipped his plate over, startled, and it had hit the floor and shattered into many pieces. Nobody noticed though.
Piper had yelped and squirted maple syrup all over herself instead of her waffle.
Frank and Clarisse had choked on their waffle and spit it out on their plates, gaping at Jason as though they couldn't believe what he had just said.
Even the usual shruggy Nico's eyes were wider than usual.
Jason cleared his throat, this time speaking more confidently. "Yeah, you heard me right!"
"But-how-" Piper was out of breath. "Are you kidding me?"
"I don't think he is," Hazel's eyes were wide with fear.
"Would she really do that?" Frank whispered.
Jason nodded. "You never know when a girl is hungry."
Everyone's mouths were still dangling open, and Jason could tell some of them still didn't believe him.
"Oh and also, Zeus murdered her," Jason said casually.
At this, the girls screamed. "WHAT?"
"HE WHAT?" Leo spit out the waffle he was chewing on and gaped at Jason.
"You heard me right again!" Jason said, somewhat cheerfully, not attempting to wipe Leo's spit off his face.
"ARE YOU ACTUALLY SERIOUS?" yelled Frank.
"Oh, and also, Percy jumped off the ship because he can't live without Annabeth."
Annabeth's P.O.V
Falling and falling and falling.
Minutes of falling. At one point Annabeth had stopped screaming for her life and had just fell silently as she plummeted to her death.
This brought back bad memories. At least she wasn't falling into an endless pit of doom this time. But it was pretty close.
Her life was over.
This was it.
All because some stupid waffle stealing brat threw her off some darned ship. She wanted to just-
"AAAANNNNAAABBBEEEETHHHHHHHHH!"
Annabeth screamed as she collided with another person who came hurling on top of her.
"PERCY?"
"ANNABETH?"
"WHAT THE-"
"YOU'RE ALIVE?"
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN AM I ALIVE?"
"ZEUS KILLED YOU!"
"WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT, YOU DIMWIT?"
The wind swooshed and blew around them as they fell, screaming at each other. The harsh winds blowing in their ears made it impossible to hear each other. Wind whipped against Annabeth's hair, but she couldn't care less.
The fact that they were plummeting through the sky didn't cross their minds because they were in too much shock.
"YOU REALIZE WE'RE FALLING AS WE'RE SAYING THIS, RIGHT?"
"OKAY, I'M REALLY CONFUSED, BUT LET'S SORT THIS OUT LATER!"
"AGREED-AAAARGH!"
The rest of their screams were drowned out. They had crashed right into the ocean, and their heads had dipped just below the surface.
Annabeth blacked out.
Piper's P.O.V
Piper couldn't believe what she was hearing. At first, she'd thought that Jason was just pulling a prank on them.
Yup, any second now he would burst out laughing and tell them none of that was actually real! But as she continued to stare at Jason, that never happened.
"Percy WHAT?" Frank shouted.
"Jumped off the ship," Jason repeated calmly.
Leo laughed nervously. "Um, dude.."
They watched silently.
Then Leo exploded. "YOU'RE KIDDING RIGHT?"
Frank yelped and scrambled away from him. "COULD YOU AT LEAST WARN US BEFORE YOU BURST INTO FLAMES LIKE THAT?"
The fire died down and Leo looked at Frank apologetically.
"Sorry," he muttered. "It's just..too much to take in."
Piper sighed and nodded. "I can't believe.."
Her voice broke as she looked over at Jason. Something about his gaze didn't seem quite right. He wouldn't meet anyone's eyes and was looking down and fidgeting with his fingers like Leo did.
Jason never fidgeted with his fingers. Something was terribly wrong.
Hazel looked absolutely mortified. "Jason, you-you can't be serious."
"As serious as waffles," Jason nodded solemnly.
Piper could feel tears rising to her cheeks. Annabeth was..dead? Percy..jumped off the ship?
She didn't want to believe it. And she didn't want to look like an idiot in front of her friends either.
She lamely muttered, "Excuse me," and rushed out of the dining hall before they could see the tears forming into her eyes.
Jason's P.O.V
One by one, each demigod stood up. Each with different expressions on their faces, they got up and miserably walked out in different directions, not one of them looking at Jason.
Jason sighed and buried his face in his hands. What have I done?
DONT WORRY I WONT KILL PERCABETH!
