Ok so I noticed people are reading, but just not reviewing. I am going to try and make this chapter as interesting as possible and will leave a cliff hanger at the end of it. I won't update until people start reviewing okay. Sorry for any typo's or ooc.
3-Annabeth
Annabeth had woken up hoping that it was all some sick twisted dream, praying that she would wake up in the Athena cabin at camp half-blood and none of this had ever happened. Sadly this wasn't the case. She and Percy had fallen down to Tartarus, she didn't know how long they had been falling because she was unconscious during the fall and she couldn't ask Percy as he was out for the count. The impact from the fall was very rough and Annabeth knew Percy broke her fall. She just hoped that he was ok and if he wasn't she would feel worse.
Annabeth looked around her. They appeared to be in some plane or savannah that stretched as far as she could see could see. She turned her head upwards hoping to see a single star but to her dismay there weren't any. All there was, was a green moon in a black sky that was casting a sinister green glow on everything in sight. To the south Annabeth could see mountains and to her west there was an ocean. This confused Annabeth. Annabeth had always thought Tartarus was a hole in the earth surrounded by celestial bronze walls with fire blazing on the earth. Clearly the text books had gotten that wrong.
Annabeth was examining herself. She was fine except for her ankle. However Percy wasn't. His ribs were sticking out of place and he had probably broken some bones from the impact of the fall. Annabeth suspected he had cracked his ribs and sustained a really bad gash on his arm.
They had no medical supplies, or any weapons on them except for riptide.
Annabeth had lost all her valuable possessions; like her invisibility cap, her bronze dagger Luke had once given to her, Deadeleus laptop and her nectar and ambrosia.
Percy was in serious need of help.
Annabeth figured that being out in the open was a pretty stupid idea and that they should probably head south towards the mountains and find shelter there. She also figured that there would have to be water up in the mountains to.
Annabeth heard rustling in the bushes around her. Panic started to bubble up inside her and she decided they needed to get a move on. She gave Percy's shoulder a nudge and said "we need to get moving Percy."
As Percy went to get up he groaned and Annabeth had to put her finger to her mouth and gesture for him to be quiet. She whispered into his ear "There's something in the bushes, we need to go!"
Percy pulled riptide out of his pocket and uncapped the ball point pen. It immediately turned into a deadly blade made of celestial bronze. As soon as he gripped it he dropped it and fell to the ground unable to stand.
Annabeth grabbed riptide, prepared to use it if she had to. Annabeth had never really learnt how to wield a sword as she had always used a dagger. Guess now's the time to learn she thought to herself.
She reached down and helped Percy up and put his arm around her shoulder, carrying most of his weight. It was hard. Her ankle was broken plus carrying Helping Percy was slowing them down. Too bad there was no other way.
Annabeth and Percy made off south towards the mountains going as fast as she could. About 200 ft from where they landed Annabeth heard the rustling again. It was coming from the bushes that were dotted around the place. Annabeth gripped riptide even tighter ready for whatever was lurking in the bushes. It then hissed "daughter of Athena, you won't escape me this time, you can run but I will find you!"
Annabeth knew who it was straight away. Arachne had survived the fall and she was thirsty for blood. To be more precise for her blood. "Come on Percy we need to get out of here" Annabeth said while trying to support Percy as best as she could. Percy groaned as he was doing his best to run.
"Run demigods but I will find you!" Arachne hissed from somewhere in the darkness. Annabeth and Percy had made it to the edge of the plain when Arachne revealed herself and came at them. It was Annabeth that she wanted no Percy. Annabeth ran in the direction of the mountain in hopes of luring Arachne away from Percy.
It seemed to be working as Arachne had started to follow Annabeth and completely forgot about Percy. Annabeth was making her way up path up the mountain trying to put as much distance between her and Arachne. Annabeth knew that she couldn't keep this up forever as she was starting to get tired and her ankle was slowing her down.
Annabeth had gone as far up the hill as she could before it became too steep to climb. Annabeth then spotted a cliff face and began climbing up as fast as she could. Before hand this seemed like a smart idea, but now she realized how stupid it actually was. She had climbed up the cliff face and was close to the summit of the mountain. Arachne had began scaling the cliff face as well. Annabeth started to panic and gripped riptide as hard as she could.
Arachne was getting closer to the top. Annabeth was cornered. She couldn't go any further, she was trapped. Annabeth saw a pile of rubble amongst a boulder. It was her only hope. She put all her strength into un-lodging the boulder from the cliff face as she could. Annabeth thought she was going to pass out from exhaustion and gave it one last burst of energy.
The pile of rubble began to topple down the cliff face and collided with Arachne who was still climbing. As Arachne was swept away and buried under the rubble at the base of the mountain Annabeth thought it was safe to climb down. As she climbed down she heard the screams of Arachne who wailed "You will pay for this, daughter of Athena!"
Annabeth then remembered Percy was still down unprotected and defenseless. She realized how stupid it was to leave him unprotected and defenseless down there by himself. She made her way down the mountain as fast as she could.
She got to the spot where she left Percy but he was missing. Annabeth screamed into the darkness "Percy! Percy, where are you?" Her frantic calls just echoed into the night. He was there a few moments ago but now he had just vanished. Annabeth curled up into a ball and started crying about how stupid she was to have lost Percy.
