AN: Okay guys, I'm sorry I wasn't able to update these last few days since We were on vacation. Anyways. I'm back now and here's the latest chapter! Little cliffy though. I know, I'm bad.
XIII- The Fight of My Life
I ran towards the monsters slashing them down one by one. With a flick of my wrist riptide was disintegrating monsters by the millisecond. No one can touch me, I was invincible. But for every one I take down two replaced them, my clothes are tattered and torn. But I know I will get them all for good.
I was now surrounded by 20 or so monsters circling around me, I was trapped. I've got to think quickly. I felt water underneath me, this place used to be a river I just know it. I blasted riptide to the ground, I willed the water to explode up into the air creating a super-powered geyser.
The next thing I knew, I was riding the geyser up into the air. I willed all the water in the underground river to explode into the surface, disintegrating every monster in the path. I landed back on the ground, I stumbled to my knees. I guess using all that water energy takes a toll on you.
I finally stood up and I was shocked at what I did. I created a 50 foot crater around me. Annabeth was looking at me with awe but the monster fighting her wasn't distracted. The monster swung a massive club at Annabeth.
"Annabeth, look out!" I shouted.
Luckily she noticed the club, and jumped out of its way just in time. But as she jumped, she landed awkwardly making her fall.
The monster was now raising its club trying to finish Annabeth off. But she used her knife as a throwing dagger and it disintegrated the monster. She looked at me and smiled.
"I'm okay, it's just my ankle" She yelled. I was relieved that she wasn't in serious injury but she can't fight with a bad ankle.
I looked up and I saw Kronos aiming an arrow at Annabeth. I knew that he won't miss since he was using Jake's body after all.
"NO!" I yelled running with all I've got to Annabeth. I reached for her and hugged her securely, but I just realized that my back was faced towards Kronos.
I felt a sharp pain on my back. I was hit on my Achilles heel. But I saw an arrow on my side. I hesitantly placed my hand along my back, along my Achilles heel. It was a cut, a graze on my back. How? How did Jake miss? I looked up to him and saw him struggling.
"You won't do this Kronos!" I realized that it was Jake's voice
"Get back mortal!" Said Kronos now with a metallic voice
"We had a deal!"
"Well, you should have known better than to trust me!"
"Let them go Kronos!"
"Never!"
Jake now looked at me with pleading eyes. I knew it was Jake because his eyes were back to normal and there was no golden light emitting from it.
"Percy, Kill me."
