Hey guys, I am finally back! Sorry for taking so long to update but I have had a shit ass week. First my girlfriend broke up with me and I'm really upset over it, My grandma went into surgery today and a few months ago I entered a book writing competition and the award ceremony was tonight. Turns out the judges didn't even look at the first page ): So it may affect my writing but I will try my best to write to write the chapters like I normally do. But on the positive side, now that I don't have to constantly spend time with my ex I can at least update faster.
Sorry for any typos, errors or any oocness
14 - Percy
Percy had been totally out for the count. Last thing he could remember was Khione showing him and Annabeth what was keeping her in Tartarus, showing them where to go next and then Gaea going psycho, causing an earthquake and trapping Percy while he let Annabeth escape.
Annabeth meant the world to Percy and without her there was nothing worth living for. Gods, he just hoped that she had escaped unscathed, Percy thought to himself.
The trembling had at least settled down, however there was another problem. The mere fact that he was stuck under a pile of fir trees was enough to get him down. Percy had tried getting out from underneath them but they were just way to heavy for him to bear. Percy eventually had to face the fact that he was going to die. Hopefully Annabeth had made it out and hadn't met the same fate as him. Gods please no Percy thought to himself preying to any god that would listen.
Just as Percy had finally given up on escape he heard Gaea's booming laughter, echoing through the forest ominously. "My little demi-god, It's your lucky day as I'm letting you escape. Just for now. You see, the girl you care for is in mortal danger. Without you she will die and if I don't help you, you will die" Gaea exclaimed. "Why are you helping me?" Percy asked hostilely suspicious this was one of her many games she liked to play. "Son of Poseidon, you really are an idiot like they all say. See for me to rise, the blood of two demi-gods must be spilt over my burial ground. One boy and one girl and since I'm particularly fond of you two it will make me even more powerful" Gaea finished before the trees on top of Percy vanished into thin air.
Percy slowly got up and onto his knees before Gaea said "I have plans for the two of you" before the presence of Gaea slowly left the immediate area.
Percy began to walk over to where the pedestal was located, so he could get a good look at what it was him and Annabeth were up against.
Percy walked out past the boundary thinking that the terrain was flat and the same as the forest. He kept walking until he stumbled over. What Percy hadn't realized was that the terrain wasn't flat but had instead dropped into a steep cliff overlooking the fields of Tartarus and that he was dangling off of a cliff face, dangling over a pit of lava below him. Percy didn't exactly like the idea of falling into lava, especially in Tartarus. What was it with him dangling off of a cliff or chasm lately? It had become a frequent thing for him lately. Percy could feel his muscles starting to strain and he knew he couldn't hold on much longer. He was hurt and sooner or later end up falling if he didn't act quickly.
Really sorry for how short this chapter was compared to my other ones. So how are you guys enjoying the story so far? Please feel free to review and like/add to favorites and comment on it. I really appreciate the people who have reviewed as their comments have really been helping me write a better story. Just to say this Percy will lose his point of view after this chapter, okay. I know I'm evil for doing it and I'm sorry but I needed to spice up the story and this is how I'm doing it. Just a heads up In the next few Jason chapters I will be dropping a huge bombshell on you guys okay, so keep checking back regularly!
Review challenge: What do you guys think the big bombshell is that I'm dropping in the next few Jason chapters is?
