I don't remember what happened in between the headache and the passing out, but I DO know that when I complained of the headache, Nico got REALLY worried, like he knew what was happening to me. After I passed out, I saw Charon. He said, "Back so soon? And this time you are dead. Where is your drachma?" "What? I- I'm not dead. I just passed out. That's all. I c-can't be dead. I haven't finished my quest! It's not fair." Charon just rolled his eyes and told me he had heard the whole it's not fair thing before. Then I saw Nico and I took his hand. He led me out and then I gasped for breath. "ARIADNE! You're alive! You… you were dead, but then you breathed. That's not possible," Percy said. Then I was really confused, because I didn't think I was dead. I thought I was just passed out. "I really was d-dead?" Will nodded; Nico just looked at me like 'Duh.' And Percy was walking to the ocean, his head hanging at his shoulders. I ran to catch up with him, and asked if he was okay, but he wouldn't talk to me. All I saw was a tear fall from his face. Then I stopped him and said, "Percy, are you crying?" This time he talked to me and said, "No, I just have something in my eyes." "Percy, tell me the truth. You can wait until we get to the beach, or tell me now. Whichever is more comfortable, I don't care but we NEED to have a private moment." We ended up waiting until Percy could get a boat so we could really be sure we were alone. "Percy, are you okay?" Percy broke down crying, and I got to the other side of the boat, and put my arm around him. "It's just, you were dead, and I just met you. You're me baby sister. I couldn't handle if you died. It would be like losing Annabeth. You two are the best people in camp." That last part surprised me. "Thanks. I DO have a question about Will, though. How did he take it when he found out I was dead?" I hesitated at the last word. I still couldn't understand how I was dead. I didn't feel like I was dead. Percy said, "He did his best to heal you, but you died for a minute, and Nico had to bring you back." He choked up a bit when he said I died and Nico had to bring me back. "You don't have to talk about it. Want to go swimming?" He nodded and we jumped in. "Percy, do you think I will pass out again?" "No. Well, I hope not. It took a lot of Will's energy, and it must have been hard on you when you found out you were dead." I didn't say anything, I was just happy to be in the water. I let myself get wet, and I really enjoyed the coolness of the salty ocean water. When we got out, I was wet, Percy was dry, and he told me I just had to will myself not to be wet anymore, and I did. When we got back, Will was setting up camp, and some girls in silver were here. The one that looked like a Goth walked up. "Hey, I hear you were dead. Is that your first time being dead, because from what I heard from Will, you had been dead before this too. Oh, and my name is Thalia Grace."
