A/N Okay, so I know this is supposed to be "Percabeth After the War," but we're gonna make it slight AU so we can incorporate more characters, you'll see. Also, sorry if they're OOC.

Later that day...

Percy's POV

I'm just helping Marco lock up the restaurant and give him a bro hug. He took the news well, I think. I told him that we broke up and I decided to use this as an opportunity to change. I didn't tell him that Annabeth dumped me, and I won't tell anyone that, because then they'll get mad at Annabeth and she doesn't deserve that. Over the last few days, I've been thinking about the amazing time I had with her and came to the conclusion that it wasn't her fault really, it was ours. We both fought back and she just happened to be the one who broke it off. I'm not mad at her really, I'm just sad about it.

I realized after talking to Marco a bit that I will go on. I have my whole life ahead of me and I am going to use this event as an opportunity to start fresh. I suppose there are reasons to live and reasons not to, but I'll think about it later. For now my life status is currently: Let's see what happens.

-time skip-

"Boarding flight 1079 going to Greece and then continuing to Australia" the person on the loudspeaker announced. That's me. I couldn't find many flights that went there directly that wouldn't break my wallet and it would be nice to visit Greece too.

I get in line and the person scans my ticket. All I have with me is a small carry-on suitcase and it has all my stuff. You could say I'm traveling light, but I plan to only bring the necessities.

I find my seat, 27A in the economy section and settle in.

A few minutes later I see a tall, burly, African-American guy shuffle down the aisle. He would look pretty intimidating if he tried, but at the moment he just looked confused. He pointed to the seat next to me, "Uhh... is that 27B?"

"Yeah, I think so."

"Great."

I shuffled out and he got seated before I went back to my seat. "I'm Charles, by the way. Charles Beckendorf. But you can call me Charlie."

I shook his hand, "Nice to meet you, I'm Percy."


Annabeth's POV

"Uhhhhh," I roll over in bed. Time to get up. *gagging noise* Seems like morning sickness is making itself known. Being pregnant sucks.

Okay, I've gotten a hold of myself, and now I am going to face Percy. I have come to peace that whatever he wants to do, I will respect it. I wonder what we are going to do about the baby though...Oh wait! He still doesn't know about the baby. Urgh, I've gotta prepare telling him that too.

I pace in the kitchen. "also... baby... sorry..." I mumble what I'm going to say. Since when have I become so nervous about talking to Percy? Since yuh dumped him yuh idiot. Oh, right.

I lock the door to the apartment. Ha, funny how it's not our apartment, it's the apartment, because I don't want to call it my apartment. I can't, I'm not ready.

Now where would Percy be? I think the best bet is going to be at Sally and Paul's house because they are on vacation now. I don't know when they're coming back, probably soon.

-time skip-

I stand in front of the door and take a deep breath. Here goes nothing.

I knock on the door.

...

No one answers. Hmmm, well that's kinda expected I guess. But I have to talk to him. I think I remember Sally saying that the spare key is in the plant.

After searching for a good 5 minutes, I find the key. I stretch my back. I'm tired now.

Right, the mission. I fumble with the key and open the door.

Everything is how it always is, how Sally keeps it: neat. There is a blanket on the couch, probably what Percy took out to sleep. Other than that, nothing is out of place. "Percy?" I call out. I take off my shoes

No response.

"Percy?" I call again. I walk into the living room and do a 360 turn.

"Please come out. I know that you may not want to see me right now, I understand, but we have some things that we need to talk about. I have some things I need to say."

No response.

I start to worry. Why isn't he coming out? Maybe he isn't here? No, Percy's fine, he probably just stepped out for a bit.

I guess I'll have to come back. I hope he's alright.

All of a sudden I'm dizzy. Welp, this isn't good. I try to regain control of myself and sit down. I should probably schedule an appointment with the doctor seeing that I'm pregnant and all. How have I not thought of this before? I have no idea.

I still don't know what to do about the baby. Should I give it up for adoption? I don't know if I can raise a child. But one thing is for sure: I am going to deliver this baby into the world.

I have some prepping to do.


So basically the A/N above was sayin' that we're gonna revive some people and that's why it's slight AU. Also, they're not exactly mortals, but the godly parents and powers don't really play a role.
