First of all im sorry for being a day late then I said I would be. I was going to do it yesterday but I had more work than I thought. Plus I was having a little bit of writers block. I have so many ideas to do in this story but they all conflict with one another and I can't decide which would be a better way to go with the story. Well, I hope you enjoy the new chapter.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I ran to my cabin as quickly as I could. Hoping that I still had a drachma in there. It didn't take long to reach Cabin 3 but to me it seemed like hours. All the time I was thinking of what I would say to the Lord of the Dead. He was not going to be happy to see me.

When I reached my cabin I searched frantically for a drachma. I looked in my bed, my dresser, everywhere. But unfortunately everywhere I looked there was no drachma. How am I supposed to talk with Hades if I don't have a drachma. I don't have enough time for a journey to Los Angeles just to have a conversation with Hades.

I decided I would talk to Travis Stoll, he and I are pretty good friends. With this thought in mind, I walked out of my cabin and over to Hermes' cabin. Luckily for me he was already outside and walking in my direction. This is lucky because I am already extremely tired.

"Hey Travis come here!" I yelled over to him.

He just looked over, nodded, and walked a little faster over to me.

"Yeah, what's up Percy?" Travis asked when he got closer to me.

"Do you have a drachma I can borrow?"

"Yeah but you have to answer something for me. Who are you IM'ing?"

"Ummmmmm……" I had to tell him the truth because he can tell when im lying, "Hades?" I said it like more of a question then an answer though.\

He looked at me skeptically, probably trying to see if I was lying. After a minute of silence he reached in his pocket and pulled out a drachma. Travis handed it to me and started walking away.

"Thanks, you have no idea how important this message is."

"Welcome, but just don't make any stupid decisions. Not when your birthday is tomorrow. Im gonna go train in the sword arena. See ya Percy."

"See ya Travis."

I gripped the drachma tight in my hand and ran to my cabin to ask for the biggest favor in my life.

Annabeth's POV (im sorry but I had to)

As Percy left my cabin I decided to follow him. If I know seaweed brain as much as I think, then he is going to try something stupid to get out of his prophecy. I actually wouldn't mind if he finds a loophole and doesn't die.

After a little bit of spieing on Percy I noticed nothing really strabge was going on. The only weird thing that happened was him searching through his cabin a little angrily. He seemed to be searching through something. Then he talked to Travis Stoll for a while. When Travis left Percy ran back to his cabin with a drachma in his hand. I had to jump backwards and hide between two cabins for Percy not to notice me.

When we reached the Poseidon cabin Percy walked in and over to his fountain. I looked in through the window to watch Percy and saw something I wasn't sure I wanted to. Percy was talking to Hades through an Iris message. Why was he talking to him? Wait a second. Percy's prophecy said that he would die. And now he's talking to the Lord of the Dead. I need to talk to him about this. The only words I heard were God, in return, safe, and Nico

Percy got up off his bed and started to walk in my direction. I got up and walked in front of Percy's cabin. This time when I saw his eyes, they were black. Just a deep pool of darkness and mystery. I was worried about him. His eyes change color with his emotions and every time I have seen them they were either sea-green or blue. Never black. The only thing I could see in his eyes was a sense of acomplishment and depression. I don't know if it's because there is nothing else in there or if it's because…. I can't read Percy's eyes anymore.

Percy POV

When I finished my talk with Hades I felt…. Depressed and lonely. My eyes seemed dull and I couldn't put a smile on my face. I don't know why I mean I got what I wanted. In fact Hades seemed happy to give me what I asked for when I did. But no matter how much I say it I know it's not what I really want. It's just a way to make sure Annabeth isn't sad anymore.

When I walked out of my cabin Annabeth was there. As soon as she saw me she looked into my eyes and had a look of shock on her face. She looked concerned.

"Annabeth are you ok?" I asked.

"Am I ok? I should be asking you the same thing. What happened to your eyes?" She answered.

"What do you mean?"

"Their black. What happened to your sea-green eyes and… and you look depressed."

"I feel fine." I said and walked away.

I looked back and saw her just staring at me. But when she saw my eyes she jumped and I saw a tear in her eye. To prove to myself nothings wrong with my eyes I created water out of my hands and splashed it on the dirt. When I looked at my reflection I was startled. My eyes were a never ending sea of darkness and my face showed obvious depression. I wasn't myself anymore. Who am I now? Does anyone know? Will I ever know again? All these answers flowed through my mind with the probable answer of….no.
