Hey everyone! I know that I just updated this morning, but I was too excited to wait! You'll enjoy this I believe, so now, time to answer reviews!

Captainforkz: Uh, you broke his blade. And that was a really fast update. Yes, yes I did. You'll see how well he does without it next chapter...

Okay that was the only review, SERIOUSLY! Please leave a review, let me what you think of this chapter! Now, ON WITH THE STORY!:

Annabeth

Percy was growing worse by the minute. Annabeth could tell he was hallucinating, due to how he kept fliching, and murmuring something about a shape-shifting Grover. Not even a few minutes ago, she had tried to keep his fever from rising, and all he could say was simple things. It was breaking her heart to see him so weak, and it was all because of tromera place. She was so used to seeing him strong-willed, so brave, willing to do whatever needed to be done. Now, he looked like just a husk, a broken person. She knew it was mostly due to the dehydration, Chimera poison, and the blood-loss, but that still didn't make her despair go away. From time to time she could hear him saying things like, "Annabeth glows" or "No cookies today", and that just made her resolve go down even further.

She wanted to break down and cry, but she stayed strong for Percys sake. She wished it was her instead of Percy, she couldn't stand to see him like this. He tried to close his eyes, but she didn't let him, and he looked so pained. That also destroyed her esolve, she was hurting him, and saving him, but Percy didn't understand, his mind was to foggy. And to top it off, this might seem shallow, but Percys emeral-green eyes were glazed over. Not in a dead way, but in a 'I-am-very-hurt-and-can't-focus' kind of way. She loved to look into his eyes, but now, they were ampty, and often stared off into space. She refused to give up on him, never. She went months without him, and she won't do it again, she refused to do it again. If Percy died, she would too.

"Annabeth?" Percy asked, looking at her with his pain clouded eyes.

"Yes Percy?" she asked, still pulling him on.

""Wh-whe-where are w-we going?" he stuttered, the stuttering got to her, a lot.

"We're getting you out of here, we're getting you to safety." she told him gently, her voice was starting to crack. It was murdering her to see him like this, so fragile, so helpless, so... weak. He was bleeding slowly, painfully, and she wanted him to be better, she wnated him to hold her in his arms.

"O-Okay, I-I'll be okay then." he replied still stuttering. They kept going down the long corridor, she went in the direction where the battledrums were sounding, as they had been for the last few hours. She could hear the stomping a many feet, a great army preparing to move out. She could see light in the distance, and she hurried towards it. Did we find a secret exit, can we bypass the entire monster army! Her hopes were soaring, and she pulled Percy along. But as she got closer, she saw that it was torchlight, not sunlight. She stopped immediately, and though she didn't want to, she put Percy down.

"Percy," she said, "Look at me." he turned and gazed at her, "I need you to be strong, we're almost there, just a little while longer." she was about to choke up when he nodded weakly. My poor Seaweed Brain... you don't deserve this pain! "I love you." she whispered into his ear.

"I-I lo-love you too." Percy managed to reply. She smiled sadly and kissed him, a gentle kiss. She got up, left Percy sitting against the wall, and walked to the corridor exit. What she saw, practically drained all hope out of her. There were thousands and thousands of monsters, all of them formed into ranks, preparing to march out of the Doors of Death. They were all clanging their shields, shouting, and howling with delight. This was an army made for a single purpose, to destroy Western Civilization. She had to find a way to distract them, a way to make an opening so she could get Percy out. She had to believe that their friends were on the otherside, waiting for them.

Annabeth slowly crept off the terrace, she could think of only one thing, she would have to get them to chase her. She would trick them into following her, then pull out her invisability cap, and disappear. "Mother, give me strength." she prayed, hoping her mother heard her, even here. Before she could change her mind, she stepped out of the shadows, and yelled at the top of her lungs, "Hey, hey, you want to kill something?" most monsters stopped cheering, and turned to look at her, "Well come get me!" and she took off running. She didn't look to see if they were chasing her, but she could hear yowls of delight, and hisses of hate. A spear flew past her shoulder, missing by an inch. She could now hear many feet running, probably to chase her. What she heard next, left her heart sinking.

"ANNABETH!" She heard Percy scream. She took a quick glance, and saw him staring at her, horror plain on his face. She didn't see where she was going, hit a rock, and tripped. She slammed into the ground, face first, tasting blood in mouth. She grumbled, and immediately flipped over. She saw monsters about to close in on her, and she squeezed her eyes shut. I'm sorry Percy! she thought, waiting for the killing blow, or bite. But it never came, she heard yelps of surprise, and she heard poofs, monsters vaporizing. She opened her eyes, and the entire room was flooded with water. How the Hades... and then realization dawned on her, Percy. She quickly looked to where Percy was, and saw him controlling the water, and he was drowning the monsters, moving his hands, ordering the waves around.

If possible, she noticed he was exceedingly pale. Annabeth realized what this must of cost him. Horrified, she began running to Percy, trying to stop him. By the time she was half-way to him, all the monsters had been drowned, he had defeated the entire horde. Percy turned and smiled at her, and he collapsed. "NOOOO!" she screamed, and seemed to run even faster. She got to Percy, who was now breathing heavily, "Why Percy!?" she yelled at him. Percy looked at her with half-closed eyes.

"You were in trouble, you needed help." he whispered, he was probably too weak to talk any louder.

"You idiot! You shouldn't of used your powers! It could of killed you!" she sobbed, tears streaming down her face.

"It still might, anyways, it was worth it." he whispered back.

"How!? How was it worth it!?" she asked incredulously.

"Your still alive, that's how." he replied, his voice shaking.

"Percy, please, don't go!" she began crying, "Please! Don't leave me! We're so close!"

"Let's finish it then, one way or another, we finish it together." Percy replied, his voice cracking, he had tears in his eyes too.

"Okay." she sobbed. She grabbed him, leaned him against herself, and walked out the Doors of Death. When she got there, she was expecting everyone else to be there, but it was abandoned. "What, where is everyone else!?" she whispered, despair sinking into her.

BUH, BUH, BUHHHH! So Percy is now dying due to the fact that he used his powers, he is very confused, remember that. Also, don't kill me, but someone important will die... next chapter. I would love to hear theories of what you think, so please, please, PLEASE, leave a review! And As Always, Have A Nice Day!
