Hey there again. Here's the second chapter for all of you. Hope you enjoy.
IMPORTANT NOTE: I am not updating this story until someone suggests who I should do next. Tell me what of Ricks character you want to see next, how they died, how old they were and please remember that the order of the chapters are the order the characters arrive in the underworld. Please don't suggest Nico or Thalia because I already know when I'm going to put them in. Make sure you use well know characters in the series and not OC.
Disclaimer, I am female and in high school so how can I be Rick Riordan?
Annabeth
I silently cursed myself for being stupid enough to forget to refill my container of Nectar. I looked at the deep claw mark going across my chest and sighed. There was no way I was getting out of this. I could feel myself slipping into death and the pain from my wound slowly disappear. I smiled my final living smile as I realized that I was about to join my Seaweed Brain again.
I thought I knew what death was going to be like. I'm mean I've come close enough to it and have been to the Underworld a few times, but this is not what I expected. I expected lines that went on and on forever. I expected a giant three headed dog named Cerberus that liked to play catch. What I did not expect though was to wake up, sixteen again, in the middle of a field facing what could only be the body of water that surround the Isles of the Blest. What happened to the lines? What about Charon and Cerberus and being judged.
"Annabeth?" A voice whispered from behind me. I'd know that voice anywhere even if I hadn't heard it for a few years.
"Percy!" I shouted scrambling to my feet and throwing myself at him. He returned my hug after a moment. I guess I surprised him.
"What are you doing here?" Percy said when I finally let go of him. "Not that I'm not happy about it or that, but what happened?"
"I forgot to refill my Nectar container and I didn't have any Ambrosia on me." I laughed a little. "I fight in two wars and a bloody hellhound kills me. All because I forgot to refill a stupid container." A thought occurred to me. "Oh my gods! The mortals are going to have a field day when they find me! Big claw mark across my torso, a sword made out of an unknown type of bone beside me, and all those scars from years of battles." By now I was full out laughing. Percy soon joined me.
"I missed you." He said once we calmed down. "I would say I'm happy to see you except for the fact that you had to die to get here. Oh, well." With that he kissed me. Even though he's been dead for a few years his lips against mine sent the same magical feeling through me.
"That's so cute!" I voice squealed making Percy and I jump apart. I turned around to see Silena daughter of Aphrodite and Taylor a daughter of Hermes that died during the Second Titan War. "I knew you guys would be perfect for each other!"
"Silena." I said giving my old friend a hug. "Hey Taylor, is Beckendorf around? Who else is here?"
"Beckendorf is working on something with some of his half brothers in the forges not far from here. But that reunion can wait for later. You and Percy need some nice deserved time together." Silena smiled brightly. Both Percy and I, if it was possible to do while dead, blushed at Silena's words. It was funny how different Piper was from Silena but yet they both rushed into battle when needed.
"Come on Silena." Percy said making hiss eyes go wide. "Annabeth wants to go look around. Are you going to say no to someone who just died. I could show her around by myself and that can be our date." He added the last part when Silena looked like she wasn't going to budge.
"Fine." She sighed. "But only if you promise to have a proper date once Annabeth settles in." Percy beamed.
"Come on!" He said pulling me to my feet and dragging me away. That's how we spent the day, Percy showing me all the sights and people I'd know. Luke who had decided to wait a bit before he was reborn, Zoƫ, Lee Fletcher, Michael Yew, and many more promise to get together with me sometime so they could catch up with what was happening in the world of the living.
"How was your day?" Percy asked as we settled back into the spot where I first appeared. Perc had informed me earlier that Hades already knew the outcome of what our judgement would be so he just sent us straight to Elysium.
"Perfect. Any day with you is perfect." I said kissing my Seaweed Brain on the lips. It didn't last long but it was still magical like any of his kisses. I cuddled in with Percy as we sat by the water. I realized, only slightly surprised, that this was one of the nicest days I'd had in awhile. Even when Percy was alive I still had monsters and enemies to worry about. I was finally at peace.
Hope you enjoyed the story. If you didn't read the Important Note up top then please do. I would appreciate it if you looked at my other story. Please leave a comment so I know how you're liking the story. Thanks again and see you soon hopefully! :)
