Hi, I'm back! Okay, I know I said that this would be the Ares fight! But once again, my reviews told me that I missed much more! So this chapter is going to have percabeth moments when they are in the underworld! Please Read and Review and Enjoy!

Okay this is literally a 3 sentence long, percabeth moment. But it's kind of funny, so I just wanted to add it and remind everyone of this. A small reflection of their friendly bickering. On lighting thief page 257. (Annabeth's Pov! Do I really need to say it?)

"Why can't you put blessings like that on us?" I rolled my eyes, at Percy's stupid question to Grover.

"It only works on wild animals" Grover explained.

"So it would only affect Percy?' I reasoned.

"Hey!" Percy Protested.

"Kidding," I smiled. "Come on. Let's get out of this filthy truck."

Okay, I know there wasn't a point to that... So let's get to the next moment!

Anyway, now here's the rest of the moments, in the underworld!

Chapter: Need to feel safe

Moment: This happens in the underworld, on a ship, sailing through the river Styx. (Page 290)

We stepped inside the wooden boat. Sailing right through all the pollution in the River Styx. The air above us shimmered with a greenish light, the color of poison.

My heart raced faster, and panic closed up my throat. All these people around me were… dead. I wasn't supposed to be here.

Without thinking, I allowed my hand to fly over as it reached and grabbed Percy's hand. Now under normal circumstances, I would be embarrassed to do this in public. But right now, I needed to know someone was alive with me, that someone was here to protect me. By grabbing Percy's hand, I felt safe.

Percy glanced at me; he was just as scared as I was. He started muttering a prayer. I would too, but I wasn't sure which god to call upon. Down here, only one god mattered… The one we had come to confront.

Okay the next moment…

Chapter: Leaving a friend.

Moment: When Annabeth controls Cerberus, and then she has to leave him. (Page 299)

I looked back as I listened to the mournful keening of Cerberus, in the distance, longing for his new friend. Was the underworld really this lonely…

An uninvited tear fell from my cheek, and I wiped it. I could see Percy avert his eyes, pretending not to see me. And I was grateful for that.

I turned to my friends, I would be leaving Cerberus, but I would be okay, because I had amazing friends right her, and knowing Percy, he'd get whatever's best for Cerberus. I knew Percy could make things right.

You know, I really forgot about all these small percabeth moments! Thanks to everyone in reviews, who remind me about these small ones!

I think this might be the last moment, in the underworld.

Chapter: Willing to Sacrifice.

Moment: When Hades makes an offer to Percy. To either sacrifice a friend to save his mother, or to leave his mother to die. (Pages 315-17) Head's up:This is sort of a long moment!

The three of us stood confronting Hades, Lord of the underworld, fearing his strong aura. I wasn't able to speak, but Percy stepped forward.

Hades accused Percy of stealing all three items of the gods. As Percy protested with respect.

"There is no mistake," Hades spoke. "I know why you have come- I know the real reason you brought the bolt. You have come to bargain for her."

I think my blood froze, as fast as Percy's. I knew Percy. I know what Hades was talking about… Percy wanted to bargain for his mother.

Hades loosed a ball in the palm of his hand that exploded into steps, directly in front of Percy. And there frozen in a shower of gold, just before the Minotaur squeezed her, was Percy's mother. It was the first time I had seen her. Her face was flawless and full of peace. Percy looked a lot like her.

I couldn't help but look back at Percy, as my heart sank. I saw the sorrow and desperation on his face. His green eyes lost the glint of light in them, for the very first time. Percy slowly reached out, as if wanting to touch his mother's face, but his hand resided as he felt the flames of the light.

"Yes" Hades said with satisfaction. "I took her. I knew, Percy Jackson that you would come to bargain with me eventually. Return my helm, and perhaps I will let her go. She is not dead, you know. Not yet. But if you displease me, that will change."

I was expecting Percy to lose it any second now. Judging by how stubborn he is, he would do something totally stupid right about now. I stated muttering a prayer to the gods, hoping that Seaweed Brain could control himself.

But I looked at Percy's face, it wasn't anger… It was full of thought. How could he even think--

"Ah, the pearls," Hades said. "Yes, my brother and his little tricks. Bring them forth, Percy Jackson."

I knew then, that Percy's mind was working; I started running my brain too, thinking a hundred miles per hour about the pearls, trying to work out a plan.

Percy's hand moved as he took out the pearls and held them out.

"Only three," Hades said. "What a shame. You do realize each only protects a single person. Try to take your mother, them little godling. And which of your friends will you leave behind to spend eternity with me? Go on. Choose. Or give me the backpack and accept my terms."

How could this be happening, we didn't have his helm… could it be… Kronos.

Percy turned to look at me and Grover. Our faces grim.

"We were tricked,' He said. "Set up."

"Yes. But why?" I asked. "And the voice in the pit—"

"I don't know yet" Percy said. "But I intend to ask."

"Decide boy!" Hades yelled.

"Percy" Grover stepped forward and put his hand Percy's shoulder. "You can't give him the bolt."

"I know that" Percy told him.

At that moment, I should have been worrying. But the truth was, I didn't have the slightest doubt with Percy. He wouldn't let anyone of us get hurt. I was just praying that he wouldn't sacrifice himself… he couldn't.

"Leave me here." Grover said. "Use the third pearl on your mom."

"No!" Percy replied so fast, I jumped.

"I'm a satyr" Grover insisted. "We don't have souls like humans do. He can torture me till I die, but he wouldn't get me forever. I'll just be reincarnated as a flower of something. It's the best way."

"No" I stepped forward and drew my bronze knife.

If I could help it, Grover wasn't turning into any flower, and Seaweed Brain wasn't about to sacrifice himself.

"You two go on. Grover, you have to protect Percy. You have to get your searcher's license and start your quest for Pan. Get his mom out of here. I'll cover you. I plan to go down fighting." I told them.

The thing that surprised me just a little bit was that I meant it. I didn't have to slightest doubt or fear. I was willing to sacrifice myself.

"No way," Grover said, "I'm staying behind."

"Think again, goat boy," I challenged.

"Stop it both of you!" We looked at Percy. His face close to breaking. He shut his eyes for a moment, and I felt like he was remembering everything we had been through together. From Medusa, to Cerberus, to the water land ride, the lotus casino. And the thousands of miles we had spent together.

Percy opened his eyes, showing a new layer of determination on his stormy green pupils.

"I know what to do." He said. "Take these."

He handed me and Grover a pearl.

"But Percy…" I started.

Percy turned and faced his mother. My heart raced… Percy couldn't sacrifice himself! I had lost Thalia, and now I wasn't about to lose Percy too! I clenched my hands around my necklace.

"I'm sorry" Percy spoke in a low voice, towards his mother. Once again- totally unpredictable. Be now, I should have just stopped trying to read him. There was no code to Percy, he did whatever was right, and he did whatever his heart said. That was one of the things I liked best about Seaweed Brain. "I'll be back. I'll find a way."

I watched to sly grin on Hades face disappeared. "Godling…" He started.

"I'll find your helm, Uncle" Percy looked straight at the God or the dead. "I'll return it. Remember about Charon's pay raise."

"Do not defy me—"

"And it wouldn't hurt to play with Cerberus once in a while. He likes red rubber balls."

"Percy Jackson you will not—"

"Now guys!" He yelled.

We smashed the peals at our feet. And For a scary moment nothing happened. But then the broken pearl peaces exploded from eh ground, with a burst of fresh sea air. And a milky with sphere formed around us as we flew straight up…

I took one second to control my mind, that didn't comprehend what just happened…

So Percy just saw his mother, Krono's may have something to do with the disappearance of the three items, Percy just made a promise to return Hades helm of darkness, and he also asked for Charon's pay raise, and managed to request companionship for Cerberus. Grover and me were willing to sacrifice our lives for Percy's happiness, and Percy just left his mother for me and Grover. And I had given up thinking about how unpredictable, stupid and kelp-headed Percy was.

That pretty much summed up our experience in the underworld. I breathed, as we landed into the ocean. Facing our next adventure.

Okay, I don't know how this turned out. I hope it's alright! Thanks to everyone who reminded me about these moments, and I give you all credit!

Now, like I have been saying for three chapters straight… the next chapter will be the Ares fight.

I know this chapter didn't reflect much percabeth, but I can promise you that the next one will! If you guys review, I'll update! So please review! Thanks!
