Percy POV

As I was sleeping that night I had my most horrible dream yet. And if this dream came true it would be my last. It all started with me standing over a monster with The Sword of Poseidon in his chest and blocking other attacks with Riptide. Then with no warning a sword went through my back. Not just any sword though, it was Backbiter. My blood was dripping off the tip that was clearly showing through my stomach.

The pain was like nothing I have ever felt before. It was so horrible that there aren't even words to describe it. As soon as I saw the tip of the blades showing through my stomach I let out a loud scream. I dropped to my knees and my vision became blurry. I looked to my left and saw a blurry vision of Luke. Then to my right and saw none other than Hades laughing at me.

"What….happened to our… deal?" I asked my uncle having trouble speaking.

"Oh I just couldn't pass up a chance to have a great soul like you in my kingdom. You shall train my army and help me become the King of the Gods!" Hades shouted.

With the last of my strength I grabbed the Sword of Poseidon, turned it so that the point was facing behind me, and stabbed Luke/Kronos in the stomach and twisted the sword. But when I fell to the ground, the last image I saw before I died was the lifeless bodies of all my friends. Including Annabeth.

I woke up sweating and breathing heavily with Annabeth sitting on my bed looking worried. Everything went through my head at once like why is Annabeth in here, can I really trust Hades, and am I wearing a shirt? Turns out I wasn't. I got up quickly and Annabeth's eyes followed me. She started to blush but she still had a worried look on her face. She also looked shocked.

I mean, I know I've been working out but come on. I quickly put on a black long sleeve shirt with gray strip going across. Then I asked her to turn away so I could change some more. She did but I saw her looking through the corner of her eye. I laughed quietly to myself and put on black pants. Then I put on my shoes and walked over to her. She looked over at me and she was done blushing, now she looked worried. She was looking directly into my eyes.

"Are my eyes still black?" I questioned.

She just nodded her head, got up, and walked with me outside. I felt worried. Today could be my last day with her. It was my sixteenth birthday. There was a long silence until Annabeth broke it when we reached the sword arena.

"Why are you dressed in all black. I mean black shirt, black pants, black shoes, black… eyes."

"I… I…… don't know. I've just been wearing black clothes since my eyes changed color."

"Then can you tell me what you were talking to Hades about?"

"Well you know how my prophecy says that the big three child will breathe no more?"

"Yeah."

"Well I asked if Hades could pull some strings to bring me back." I lied. I couldn't tell her that I actually asked if I-

"Tell me the truth Percy."

"I….I can't."

"Why not!"

"Because I don't even want to believe that I made the deal. Hades will probably betray me anyway. That's what happened in my dream."

"What dream?"

I then explained the dream to her. Me getting stabbed , killing Luke/Kronos, Hades laughing. Everything. She immediately started thinking about the dream when I finished telling her. I could easily tell because of how she looked. When she is thinking hard about something she gets an emotionless look on her face and she kind of just drifts away from reality.

"I don't know what to tell you Percy. This dream can mean anything."

"Great." I stated with obvious sarcasm.

Just then the emergency horn blew which could only mean one thing today. The war was about to start. I looked over to Annabeth and we both ran over to Half-Blood Hill. I took Riptide out of my pocket before realizing something.

"Annabeth I'll be right there."

"Where are you going?"

"Back to my cabin to grab tidal wave. I'll be right back."

"But-"

"I promise." I gave her a kiss and ran back to my cabin.

On my way there I couldn't help but feel a little pissed off that tidal wave wasn't like Riptide. Unfortunately I didn't have much time to think about this because there were two dracaenae blocking my path to my cabin. I uncapped Riptide and dodged one of the dracaena's attacks. I looked up and stabbed it in the ribs. The first dracaenae exploded into flames. The next one tried to stab me with it's spear but I parried his attack. When I tried to counter attack it threw its net at me. I slashed the net in half and cut off the dracaena's head.

When I finished off the dracaenae I ran into cabin three and grabbed tidal wave. Then I ran out of the cabin I slashed at the ground and a huge wave came out of the tip of tidal wave. I jumped on top of the wave and rode it to Half-Blood Hill.

When I reached the bottom of the hill where everyone was getting ready for the battle. I put on my special armor that was specially designed for me. It had a trident on the back of m chest plate and a picture of medusa's head on the front. I walked over to Annabeth and tapped her on the shoulder. She spun around, pulled out her knife, and slashed at me. I easily grabbed her arm, spun her around, pulled her backwards, and kissed her. She was tense at first until she realized it was me.

"Good greeting Wise Girl. You tried to kill me." I said.

"Not a bad one yourself." She replied laughing a little under her breath.

I put on my helmet and looked out over the hill. There were thousands of monsters. I could see dracaenae, empousai, Laistrygonians, Kampe, the minotaur, a few Cyclops (which are actually on our side but Kronos doesn't know), and many other kinds of monsters that I didn't even know existed.

We had a pretty big army ourselves. Our army consisted of half-bloods, Cyclops, centaurs, Mrs. O'Leary, Briares, the huntresses of Artemis, several minor gods, satyrs, and tree nymphs. We almost matched the number of enemies. Ever since the satyrs started working on overtime, an overflow of half-bloods coming to camp. We had Nico and Tyson back which is good. We have all three big three children in our army.

I walked up to Thalia and took off my helmet. She jumped when she saw my eyes. I just ignored it and kept walking.

"Hey Percy, what happened to your eyes?" Thalia asked.

"I made a deal with Hades and when I came out my eyes became black."

"O-Okay. So… what happened with you and Annabeth?"

"What do you mean?"

"Well I saw that little, romance movie move, you pulled on Annabeth."

"Oh…. Yeah. It's nothing."

"Ok, whatever you say Percy. Well I just wanted to say good luck Percy. And I love you." She said and gave me a big hug.

"I love you to Thalia." (Ok I know people are gonna get confused about this so I'll say it. There saying this as friends. Now im not gonna get yelled at by people)

I walked back over to Annabeth when I was done talking to Thalia. She gave me a dirty look and I can probably guess why.

"What the hell was that about!!" Annabeth screamed.

"What was what about?"

"I love you Percy. I love you to Thalia." she said in a mocking tone.

"It was in a friend way! And besides Thalia is a huntress. Artemis would kill me and kill Thalia! And most importantly I love you!"

"I-I love you to Percy."

Just then a loud roar came from the other side of the hill. I put on my helmet and walked to the front of the army with Chiron.

"Alright everybody! This is the day we have been preparing for, for years! I think that we can win this war today!! I know that we can win this war today!! Now lets fight like the heroes we truly are!! And if you see yourself in green fields with the sun in your face, don't be troubled. For you are in Elysium, and your already dead! Now lets win this war for the gods!!" Percy yelled for the army in front of him.

There was loud cheering from the great army that Camp Half-Blood managed to create. Percy stepped back a few steps so he could be at pace with Annabeth. He tried to smile but couldn't seem to.

"You stole that Elysium line from the movie Gladiator." She said with a smile creeping on her face.

"No one else seemed to notice. Plus it got our army ready for battle." He said while starting to laugh.

"Well nevertheless the speech was great!"

"Thanks. Im gonna go and try and get the first few monsters down. Good luck Wise Girl. I don't know what my life would be like without you."

"Same goes for you Percy. I love you."

"I love you to."

With that Percy raised Riptide and ran to the front of the army to get the first kill.
