Hullo! I've decided to start a new series. Basically, this doesn't mean I'm quitting writing "Rise Again"(for those of you who know what that is), I'm just putting that on hiatus. Hope you enjoy this new one!

What If You Could Start Over?
Chapter 1
"I need to do it. If you try, Kronos will fight you. I can hold him back. Give me the dagger," Luke gasped.
Persephone Jackson held back tears as she handed Luke the celestial bronze dagger. He grasped it and unlatched his armor, hand trembling as he fought for control over his body. He brought the knife down under his left arm, near his underarm. It wasn't a deep cut but Luke howled. The throne room shook, throwing Perci off her feet. An aura of energy surrounded Luke growing brighter and brighter. She shut her eyes and felt a force like a nuclear explosion blister her skin and crack her lips.
It was silent for a long time.
Perci cracked her eyes open and choked down a sob at the sight. Luke Castellan, who she had a former crush on, lay dead by her feet. Perci didn't think she could live without him. She grabbed the hilt of the dagger.
"Perci...what are you doing?" Grover's weak voice came from across the room.
She didn't answer her, her eyes trailing across the point of the blade.
"Perci…"
Annabeth's eyes widened. "Perci, no!"
Too late. She brought the dagger down on her vulnerable spot and collapsed to the ground. Grover and Annabeth ran to her, sobbing. Annabeth kept on whispering why over and over again as she caressed the dead girl's face. The gods arrived just then, thundering into the throne room, expecting a war. What they found were Annabeth and Grover, crying over their two best friends.
The Three Fates took Luke Castellan and Persephone Jackson's bodies themselves and buried them. The Nine Muses were there too, singing a funeral song about three heroes deceased. Two on Mount Olympus, with their friends drowning in sorrow thinking of what they could've done to prevent what had happened. One on Mount Othrys, with his former lover, a daughter of Bellona grieving over him. Nobody knew who the third person they were singing of was. They could only assume it was Silena Beauregard. She did die a hero's death after all.
It seemed like the worst day that had befallen upon the gods in a long time.
aHeM that was tough. I had to search through the books to see if what I wrote was true. Turns out, it was! (Unless I read wrong.) Part two coming out...soon? IF you see any mistakes switching between third person and first, I apologize dearly since I am more used to writing in first person. Anyhow, hope you enjoyed the first part! Do you think the three will meet in Elysium? Do you think they will get along? Read more to find out!(If I posted the next chapter yet). Love 'yall! :)
