So, now I'm way into writing this, so I'll be updating as much as I can :) I really wanna get to the story, but before I do, I've always wanted to do this, I do not own Percy Jackson or Lord of the Rings, I just own the amazing plot, MWAHAHAHAHA, and cookies, I have cookies. Oh, and I still need an elvish translator, whoever is my translator will get the first chapter of my last book in this series, I had that thought up before the rest of this story was thought up. ;)

Chapter 5 Legolas's POV

After watching how sad Annabeth had gotten after talking about her friends, I felt bad for her, she was just a lost girl, and it looked like this wasn't the first time she had been either. I put that thought to the side of my mind, I'll investigate on that later. While Aragorn was examining the image on paper, I made my way up to Annabeth.

"Hello." I started.

"Hi." She replied.

"Annabeth, we never asked, how old are you?" I asked

"17." She said matter of factly.

"17?! But how can a 17 year old girl fight better then most full-grown men I've ever see-" That last part slipped out before I could stop myself.

She looked at me, "You think I'm a good fighter?"

"I, uh, well, yeah!" I managed to stutter out. Why did she make me so tongue tied?

"Well, thanks... I think." She said. We looked at each other, and she smiled, a wide, gleeful grin, and I smiled back.

"If you don't mind me asking, are you and the black haired boy, Percy right, are you lovers?" I asked carefully.

"What?! No, no way, no, he's my best friend, but, no." She stuttered out, I couldn't help but laugh, "What are you laughing at, I find nothing funny about this."

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to cause you to blush," which only made her blush more, "I was simply curious."

She tried to look angry, but soon, we were both laughing, she had a beautiful laugh.

Aragorn and Gimli, who were leading the way, gave us strange looks, but we couldn't blame them.

"So, now I get to ask you, do you have a lover?" She said after our laughter subsided.

"No, not really." I said.

"Not really? How can it be 'not really?" she asked with a confused look on her face.

"Oh, I have this friend, and we tried once, but it didn't work. We agreed that is was better to just stay friends, me and her." I said as casually as I could.

" I know that feeling." she said, "And what about you two," she said to Gimli and Aragorn, "do either of you have lovers?"

"Yes." Aragorn said.

Then while Gimli went into some big sermon about the theory that there might not be female dwarfs and that young dwarfs just pop out of holes in the ground, I quietly, so only she could hear, explained Aragorn's love situation.

After Gimli finished Aragorn said, "One thing I'm curious about though, earlier, when you fought the eight orcs, you turned invisible, how? Do you also have a ring of power?"

"A what? Look, this turns me invisible, it was a gift from my mom... a very long time ago." She said as she pulled out a strange object, it was shaped like a bowl with one side longer then the rest. She handed it to Aragorn. "It's a hat, look." She held it slightly above her head so she didn't turn invisible.

"Ok, I was just checking." He said handing it back to her.

"You could try it, if you want." She said mischievously.

He smiled, "Alright, I think I will." And he put it on, as soon as it touched his head, he was gone.

I looked at Annabeth, "That's supposed to happen, right?"

"Yep." she said, popping the 'p'

"Oi, lad, where'd ya go?" Gimli said looking around.

"I'm right here," he took off the hat showing us where he was, and had a huge smile on his face, "that's amazing Annabeth." She just grinned

"Your mother must be amazing if she can make these wonderful things." I said. Her grin faded.

"She... She's no longer with us." Annabeth said looking at the ground.

I put a hand on her shoulder, "I'm sorry."

She lifted her head and put a finger to her lips. "Shhh," she whispered, then looked at me, "did you hear that?"

I listened, I had been so distracted by Annabeth I hadn't been listening. I looked at everyone. "Orcs!"

Well, 799, not bad :) so, just a quick re-cap: elvish translator, spoilers, own zip, and cookies.
