That day passed in blur for Percy. Jason, Nico, Frank didn't hug Percy, they just shook his hand or clamped his shoulder. Hazel, Chiron and even Leo were moved to tears.
The next day when they were about to cremate Annabeth. Thaila, Annabeth's family and Percy's family Sally and Paul had gathered.
Hazel took off Annabeth's necklace and gave it to Percy who held it dearly over his heart. Malcom even gave Percy her Yankees cap.
While everyone spoke a few words about Annabeth. Percy just couldn't get himself to do so. He just stood there. When everyone had left the place. He sat down by her side and wailed.
Hazel came to check on him and led him to his cabin.
"Percy you have to go to sleep."She pestered him for a while and when she had made him go to his cabin and sit on his bed. She left him,
"Goo... Go to sleep Percy you will need it." She caught herself before she said Good Night.
Next evening, Hazel, Piper, Leo knocked on the door. And then they peaked in to see Percy sitting on his bed.
"Percy!" Freaked out Hazel as she walked infront of him. Percy didn't move. Only signs of him being alive was his chest moving with every breath and his eyes blinking.
"What?" Questioned Leo.
"I left him in the same position 12 hrs ago." whispered Hazel.
Piper had a bandage over her stomach and fore head she even and a cast on her right arm.
"Percy!" Called out Piper. When she got down to his eye level she winced.
"Percy, you can't do this to yourself. Percy eat something. Do something. Say something." Piper begged him.
Percy didn't move. He kept staring at one point on the wall ahead of him.
"Annabeth wanted you to live." started Piper.
"PIPER!" shouted Jason desperately when he ran into the room.
"Piper, you are in no state to roam around. Piper you have to rest those injuries are still open." Said Jason.
"Percy needed help." Replied Piper defensively.
"Don't you charm speak me. Pipes I care for you, please rest we will take care of Percy later. He doesn't want to talk to anyone so lets just leave for a while. Okay I will come and check on him. I promise."
Piper hesitantly got up but slipped. She was standing so close to Percy yet he didn't move to catch her.
"Piper!" Jason shouted as he went forward and caught her before she touched the ground.
"Let's get you out of here." With that Jason picked Piper bridal style and carried her to the door against her protest.
"PUT ME DOWN JASON!" shouted Piper. Jason obeyed and put her down.
"Hazel what about you? Please stay for a while. Although I asked you to come with me but... please stay for a while I'll send Frank too?" Asked Piper. Hazel nodded.
When Percy and Hazel were alone. Hazel sat down next to Percy and rested her head on his shoulder.
"Annabeth wanted you to live. If you don't eat, sleep how are you going to survive, Percy I care for you, Everyone one does Frank, Jason, Piper, Leo, Nico, Reyna. Campers await your call to lead them. Sally and Paul too. I know it is hard for you but if you stay like this nothing it is of no use. In this case you are not alive but just breathing. You need to live. You need to live for her." Percy looked at her.
Frank entered the cabin. He stood infront of Percy and looked in his eyes.
"Perce bro, what she is saying is true. In all the time I spent with Annabeth, I know she's not a quitter. Neither are you. You need to pull yourself up. You need to be what Annabeth wanted you to be. And that was Seaweed brain and that is you." At this Percy stared at Frank.
"She will always be with you." Said Leo standing at the doorway. He walked up to the trio and sat next Percy.
"She will always be with you in here." He said pointing at his heart. Percy felt his heart.
"She is, was and always be a part of you." Said Nico walking up to the four.
"Not only you but all of us." Jason pitched in.
"I'm sorry dude I kinda ignored you, I was angry with you for what you did to Piper. She was just trying to help. I understand. If I was in your place I could have reacted in the same way."
Added Jason.
They stood in there in silence for a while until Percy ate his apple. After that everyone left Percy but Leo remained.
"I know one thing rhat will lift your spirits. You and me Water to fire battle." Said Leo and grinned. Percy ignored the comment but Leo being persistant dragged Percy to the shore.
"You ready water boy!" Called out Leo as he lit himself on fire he shot fire at Percy.
Time slowed down.
Percy stood there frozen. Frank became a fire breathing dragon with fireproof skin and stood infront of Percy. While Jason sparked lightning that met Leo's fire before it could meet Frank.
"ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND?! LEO VALLEY." shouted Hazel.
"Don't you know this is the place where... you know what happened and this is only place you found that suited your job to cheer Percy up." She shouted at Leo. The earth rumbled and rubies, sapphires, diamonds sprang into life.
"Let's get out bud." Said Jason as he took Percy to dining pavilion. He gave Percy, Blue pancakes and drowned them in syrup. The two were joined by Piper, Frank and Nico. Behind them came Hazel who was dragging Leo by his ear.
"Aoo Aoo.. I promise to take care next time. I promise."
Nico smiled at this and eyed Jason for an explanation. Who mouthed *afterwards*
The night fell. The campers went to bed. So did Percy.
#People Percy has a nightmare. Soft hearted people please stop here.
As Percy closed his eyes he saw himself and Annabeth skipping stones by the beach. The evening was peacefully passing by. He held her hand she smiled at this and kissed it. When he opened his eyes. He saw her, black nothingness had replaced her grey glistening orbs. Her body was covered with scars head to toe and all of them were bleeding. His hand was also smeared with blood her blood.
She naturally smiled at Percy blood oozed out of her mouth and drenched her clothes. She fell on the ground. He rested her head on his lap.
"Percy.. Help..." she chocked on her own blood.
"ANNABETH!" shouted Percy as her body turned to cold limp.
Percy gasped for air as he sat up on his bed.
"What happened Percy?" Asked a familiar voice.
"Annabeth.." choked Percy.
"Yes, Jackson now sleep." Replied Annabeth sleepishly.
"But you just..." Percy couldn't complete his sentence.
"I just what Percy." Asked Annabeth sitting up caressing his cheek with her thumb. She then touched his forehead with hers. "I am alive." She said.
Percy let out his breath which he was holding for so long and closed his eyes. Tears streamed down his cheeks.
Annabeth cupped his face in her hands as she whipped his tears. Percy opened his eyes to see the two long slits that Annabeth had made they were bleeding.
"Annabeth!" Percy screamed and moved away.
"Percy, why did you do this to me? Was it not enough for you? Did you not love me? Was it all a joke?" Tears trickled down her cheek.
Her tears were blood. She wiped her tears with her hand. She shifted her position. Percy fell down the bed.
His eyes were open to the sight he just saw.
Tears had dried on her cheeks her white gown was red because of all the blood. She moved closer to him. She kneeled at the edge of the bed. She held out Riptide. She held its tip at her throat.
"Percy, dont. Percy I beg you. I love you. Save me Percy. " She begged him.
By time he got up to snatch riptide out of her hand.
She had clicked the button at the back of Riptide. Riptide sprang to life and passed right through her throat. Blood oozed out.
"ANNABETH!" SHOUTED PERCY.
Water splashed right across his face. He was awake.
