Annabeth
"Come on Percy!" Annabeth said, "drink it!" she was holding a thermos of nectar to his lips, and was trying to make him drink it. Percy looked pale in what little light there was, he was still breathing, barely. She was growing more worried for her Seaweed Brain, she couldn't imagine living without him now.
Percy eyes started opening, and he started coughing. "Wha-what happened?" Percy groaned, "I feel like I just got hit by the Minotaur." Annabeth just grabbed him tightly, and started kissing him. She had tears rolling down her face, she couldn't believe how close she had been to losing Percy. They kissed for a few more minutes, then she broke away for air. "Annabeth, I'm okay, I told you, you won't lose me."
Annabeth started sobbing now, and Percy just held her closer. He began trying to calm her down by whispering: it's okay, and, I'll never leave you's. Eventually, Annabeth finally got a grip of herself. "Just don't do anything, and I repeat anything, like that again!" she demanded.
"I'll try my best Wise Girl." Percy said grinning, that stupid, cocky grin that Annabeth didn't think she could live without. She began to hold him tighter, and she squeezed her eyes shut, trying to erase the image of living without her Seaweed Brain. It's no longer possible for me to live without him, she thought to herself. "Annabeth, I think we should start going?" he made it sound more of a question.
"Okay, but first, we need to get a splint on your leg." and she began to think of what they should use.
"We could go back and grab those Telekhine's swords?" Percy suggested.
"But they would be too long to be used effectively."
"We could use Riptide to break them a little bit shorter."
"That's… that's a good idea Percy!" she exclaimed, "But, we'd have to go back awhile to get them."
"We don't have much of a choice," Percy said, "I can't get crippled because my leg couldn't heal properly." Annabeth didn't like the idea much, but he was right, what choice did they have?
"You stay here," Annabeth said, "I'll go ge-"
"Out of the question!" Percy interrupted, "I'm coming too." He had an expression that told Annabeth that he wasn't going to back down.
"Fine! You can come along!" She said, exasperated, "It's going to take a lot longer though." In truth, she felt relieved that Percy was coming too, that way he wouldn't be out of her sight.
"Then I suggest we get started." And now they set off back the way they came, which was pretty close to half a mile. When they got there, they saw the dust piles of the Telekhines were gone.
"They already reformed!" Percy exclaimed, "How long before the Minotaur reforms?"
"I don't know, but we need to hurry, look around for their weapons." She said it with a shaky voice, but she was scared. I don't think Percy could survive another beating like with the Minotaur earlier. They searched for a couple minutes, when they found them.
"Um, Annabeth," Percy said, "I think I found the weapons." She looked to where Percy was looking, and saw that the two Telekhines were standing there, and they found a couple friends. Annabeth quickly threw riptide to Percy, who grabbed it out of midair, and slashed one, then two of the Telekhines. Then one of the Telekhines decided to play dirty, and kicked Percy's broken leg. Percy yelled out, and collapsed
"PERCY!" she screamed, already flying to him. She had her dagger, and she threw it at the Telekhine who had his blade raised, ready to finish the job. He yelped and exploded. The other one grabbed Percy by the collar of his shirt and lifted him up. This Telekhine was much taller than Percy, and lifted him easily. "NOOOO!" she screamed out as the Telekhine drew out a dagger, and was about to stab Percy. Percy then kicked the monster in the groin, and the Telekhine dropped Percy, in which the fall hurt his broken leg.
Annabeth took this moment and tackled the Telekhine, screaming, "YOU WILL NOT HURT HIM!" and Percy limped over and finished the Telekhine off with a downward arc of riptide. Annabeth went over and hugged Percy gain, already she almost lost him twice in one day. She began sobbing once more into his chest, and he comforted her with more comforting words. After awhile, she gained a control of her emotions again, and became focused on the task at hand.
"We need to make a splint for your leg." she took Riptide, and all of the Telekhine weapons, and she cut a couple of them to two feet long. She measured it to Percy's leg, and it was good. She then ripped off a part of her shirt, and used it to tie the bottom of the two pieces in place, and she made it tight enough so it wouldn't fall off. Then Percy ripped part of his shirt off so Annabeth could use it to tie up the top. Throughout this process, Percy was grimacing in pain, in which Annabeth felt horrible because she was causing it.
After that was done, she helped Percy up so he could test out the splint. Percy still couldn't put his full weight on his foot, but it still helped him move better. "It's a good splint." He said.
"You expected anything less?" Annabeth asked, smiling.
"No, not from my Wise Girl." He then cupped her face in his hands, and kissed her passionately. "I love you Annabeth."
She moved forward, and locked their lips together again. "I love you too Percy." And they began setting off back towards they came.
