Power Fight

I forgot to thank L-ily Percabeth for an idea in chapter 6. They gave me the idea of the Stoll brothers liking Cho. Thanks!

I would also like to thank an anonymous reviewer by the name of Random Reviewer for what this chapter is about. Thanks!

Also, I have a poll on my profile that I would appreciate people participating in. It involves all my stories.

As of April 30, 2009:

6 more days until LAST OLYMPIAN!

79 more days until HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE MOVIE!

Disclaimer: Guess what? You did! So, congratulations! I don't own anything!

Harry's POV

We had just finished lunch, and I saw Thalia approach Percy. She looked angry. I stopped walking to watch. Ginny noticed, and asked, "What are you looking at?" I just pointed as an answer.

I moved closer so I could hear them, "Kelp Face!" Thalia yelled angrily.

"Yes?" Percy asked.

"Why?" she asked.

"Why what?" asked a confused Percy.

"Why are you ruining my life?!" she exclaimed impatiently.

"You're going to have to be more specific than that," Percy informed her.

Thalia was furious, "You don't deserve Annabeth."

"You sound like her mother," Percy snapped.

A lightning bolt struck next to Percy. By the look on Percy's face, I think Thalia caused it, "Annabeth should be a Hunter. But she's not. She was asked, you know, recently. She said no. I didn't know why then; it was before all this. But now I do. It was because of you!" A lightning bolt struck on both sides of Percy now.

"Whoa, Thalia; you need to chill," as he said chill, a frozen spear of water shot at Thalia.

They both stood tall, far away from each other. Campers stopped to watch. It began to rain, causing the whole camp to gasp. I heard a camper whisper, "Percy got past the weather barriers!" (A/N when I brought up Percy controlling rain in my story, Percy Jackson, someone told me that Poseidon can't control the weather, that Zeus does. But that is incorrect. One of Poseidon's nicknames is Stormbringer.)

I knew that when Percy touched water, he became stronger. With that knowledge, the fight in front of me was no surprise. Although, it was awesomely cool. Percy stood near one of the small rivers that run through the camp. Thalia stood as far away from all forms of water (besides the rain) as possible.

Percy threw more ice-spears at Thalia, who dodged them. One came close to her ear. Thalia began to send electric shocks at the spears when she got tired of dodging. She sent one at Percy, who commanded the river water to come up in front of him. The electric shock spread through the water, but none of it got to Percy. A large wave rose up behind Percy, and it was sent directly at Thalia, harming no one else.

Everyone gasped at Thalia's way of avoiding the wave. Even Percy watched in awe. She rose off the ground, and I could see a little tinge of worry in her eyes as she flew. Maybe she was afraid of heights? She flew at Percy, who enclosed himself in a cube of water, making sure none of it touched him. He didn't want to be electrocuted by any shocks Thalia sent through the water.

Thalia returned to the ground, and, without warning, Percy sent his cube at Thalia. She was so focused on that one, that she didn't notice the frozen cube floating above her. It melted and began to bubble, still in cube form. Thalia still hadn't noticed it, because she was concentrating on the block of water flying at her. The bubbling cube was released, and it poured all over Thalia, getting her soaked with boiling water. She screamed.

I saw Annabeth, and she was running at the two. Thalia and Percy hadn't noticed. Thalia shot a lightning bolt from her position to Percy just as Annabeth stepped in the way, probably trying to stop the fight. Percy screamed, "ANNABETH!" and ran at her.

Percy stood in front of Annabeth just as the lightning bolt reached them. Percy was hit, and Annabeth screamed, "Percy!" Thalia stared at him in shock. I put myself in her shoes. She wasn't able to stop the bolt once it was in motion, and she was terrified of harming her friend. She was shocked when the person she was fighting with over her friend's safety saved that friend when she was going to accidentally hurt said friend.

Thalia ran over to the unconscious Percy and helped Annabeth carry him. One kid suggested, "Take him to the Big House!"

An Apollo kid ran up to them and checked his pulse, "No time. Drop him in the river."

Thalia and Annabeth practically ran over to the river. Thalia let go, expecting Annabeth to do the same. She didn't; instead, she jumped in the water with Percy in her arms. The whole camp gasped, and the Hogwarts students gasped along with them.

Annabeth's POV

I jumped in the river with Percy, and I don't know why. I just felt compelled to jump. Percy was lighter in the water, but he was still unconscious. I shook him a little, and I noticed his eyelashes flutter. His eyes stayed closed though. I needed air, but I wasn't going to leave Percy. I slapped him across the face, although the water prevented me from doing it very hard.

The slap made Percy's eyes pop open anyway. He looked at me and then the water around us with a confused expression. I made frantic motions with my hands, and Percy's eyes lit up. He put an air bubble around my head, and I breathed deeply, "What happened?" asked Percy.

"You got in a fight with Thalia," I answered, "A fight with your powers: a power fight."

"I remember that. I remember running in front of you, and then nothing," he clarified.

"Oh. An Apollo kid took your pulse and said that if we took you to the Big House, you might not make it. He said to dump you in the river. I jumped in with you when Thalia helped me carry you here. She feels terrible," I explained.

"Why did you jump in?" Percy asked.

"I don't know," then I thought for a moment. I smiled as I remembered what the character Meg had said in the movie Hercules, "'Love can make people do crazy things'," I quoted.

Percy smiled at me, "I love you too."

Harry's POV

They hadn't come up for a long time. People began to chew their nails because of their nervousness. Except for the Aphrodite Cabin; each of them reproached anyone who did that. Anyway, I was getting nervous too. I knew that Percy could breathe underwater, but what about Annabeth? She couldn't.

Suddenly, a wet Annabeth was pushed out of the water, and Percy pulled himself out after. Everyone immediately ran over to them, and Ginny pulled me over too. I saw a hesitant Thalia walk up to Percy. Everyone was silent as the two looked at each other. Then Percy held out his hand for her to shake, "No hard feelings. Truce?" he asked

"Truce," Thalia agreed as she took his hand and shook it. Annabeth looked relieved about something, but I didn't know what. (A/N Annabeth was glad Thalia didn't do a prank shock when Percy shook her hand.) Thalia added when she pulled her hand away, "Annabeth is lucky that you'll be there to protect her."

"Thanks," Percy said as Annabeth hugged him from his side and he put his arm closest to her around her.

Everyone left, most likely to their separate training, and Ginny was trying to pull me towards Hermione and Ron. But I wanted to talk to Thalia and Percy first. Ginny rolled her eyes at me and went over there by herself. I looked at Thalia and Percy, and the three of them were watching me. I spoke, "Even though it was kind of dangerous, I thought that was awesome."

Annabeth smirked, "They'd do stuff like that everyday if I didn't separate them." Thalia rolled her eyes while Percy just grinned.
