Disclaimer: I don't own PJO

Sorry I haven't updated in a while and school started, the teachers decided to give us like five tests in the third week. I'm also running for class office. I'm probably going to update only once a week.

Annabeth's POV

He almost caused me my lost! It's lucky I quickly remembered the angry feeling inside of me and knocked Clarisse aside. I informed Chiron about my win and went to the beach until dinner. I hoped to be alone but nothing ever works out the way I want it to. I found Percy asleep on the beach. Wow that boy can fall asleep anywhere. I sat down on the sand and looked into the ocean, falling into a daze. I felt myself nodding off and I fell asleep.

Percy's POV

I woke up to find a blonde haired girl next to me asleep. Wow what time is it? I got up and stretched and saw that the sun was setting across the ocean. I saw Annabeth sitting a couple feet away napping and I quickly got up and went to my cabin where I quickly fell asleep thinking about the sword fight.

The next couple of days went by pretty fast. So far I had won every match and was moving higher and higher up the winner's chart. Today was the final four. Then tomorrow the finale. I was up against Malcolm, son of Athena, Annabeth's brother. We were going to play in front of the rest of the camp that hadn't been eliminated. Truth was, I was kind of nervous. Since Malcolm was a son of Athena, he probably already had a plan on how to take me down, slowly and painfully.

The other pairing went first. Annabeth and a son of Ares. It was a very riveting fight, it was never obvious who was going to win, but after five minutes, they both started to weakened and The Ares kid stopped to breathe and Annabeth took this as an advantage and trapped him. She won. This is not good, if I win I have to go against her. Well this should be fun. Chiron jotted something on his clipboard.

"Percy, Malcolm, take your lines." We stood at our starting points and Chiron blew his whistle. We immediately started fighting. I blocked all of his shots and he deflected mine. We both fought really hard until he faltered and I lunged forward viciously, probably humiliating myself in the process and hit his sword which flew out of his hand and clattered to the ground.

Malcolm glared at me. He picked up his sword and went back to his cabin.

"Alright, so tomorrow the match will be Percy against Annabeth." I tried to smile, but it faltered. Annabeth saw the falter and smirked.

"Is the hero of Olympus scared to fight a measly daughter of Athena?" She mocked.

"You planning to win?" I ask.

"Are you?" She countered.

"What do you think?" I grin and walk out leaving a grumpy Annabeth.

Later in the day, I had a little free time so I decided to go get some training at the arena; after all I was going to need it. I walked in but I heard someone in there so I quickly hid behind the bleachers. Annabeth was there fighting a dummy, well . . . you couldn't call it a dummy anymore. It was reduced to straw and shreds of clothing. I seriously hoped that's not what I looked like after tomorrow.

I acted on my ADHD and jumped into the fight, clashing my blade into hers. She stumbled backwards but when she realized what happened, she came forward with a icy look on her face.

"You think you can surprise me with one hit and you'll win. You're good Percy but not that good." I think she just insulted me. She lunged forward, I easily step sided, attacking her with another hit, but after a couple minutes of fighting, I realized how I could win. I willed water from the fountain to come out and attack Annabeth from the back. She got momentarily distracted, the time which I used to tackle her to the ground and unarm her.

We both hit the ground, her back to the ground, my face inches from her's. My arms broke my fall and I looked like I was doing a push up and she just happened to be under me. Her grey eyes looked into mine and we just stayed like that for a little while.

"Ahem . . ." We heard someone clear their throat and Annabeth and I looked up. We saw Malcolm, blushing furiously. He was taking pictures of us. I quickly got up, my face probably red.

"Umm . . . we were fighting and I uh kind of uh tackled her to uh win." My voice faltered.

"Ok, I was just coming here to fight." He was bright red, which was weird since he wasn't even the one being embarrassed.

"I was just leaving."I say before running to my cabin. Sometimes I'm glad I'm the only one in the Poseidon. There is never any one bothering me, and I can think alone in peace. I laid down in my bunk and ended up falling asleep.

I awoke to violent shaking. I opened my eyes to see gray angry ones.

"Wise Girl? What are you doing in my cabin?" I asked

"It's past dinner. You never showed up so they sent me here to make sure you were ok." She answered grumpily. "You do realize I've been trying to wake you up for the past half hour." Then I heard her stomach grumble. I realized to wake me up she probably ha to miss dinner.

"I'll go get us something to eat. We can have a picnic by the beach. Meet me there." I said, going out of my cabin to get some food. I went to the pavilion to find it empty, with only Chiron there.

"Hey, Chiron do you mind if I get some food for me and Annabeth? I fell asleep and she came to wake me up. Apparently waking me up is not an easy task." Chiron chuckled.

"Sure go ahead." I filled a basket with food and headed down to the beach where Annabeth was waiting for me.
