Ch. 5

Peeta's P.O.V.

We head back to Annabeth to wake her up and go get Andrew, Lily, and Ronny according to Percy. But when we get there...Annabeth is gone.

Percy just stares at the ground.

"No, this is my fault, I shouldn't have left her!" I hear him mumble, he sounds like he wants to cry. I can understand that. Someone who he knew just died for him and now his girlfriend is missing.

"Percy, it's ok. Don't blame yourself-" I try to assure him, but he interrupts me.

"No! It's not ok. She was still hurting, and I left her. Alone. No way she could defend herself. And Silena just died for me. For ME. And now Annabeth is missing becasue of ME. I'm doing everything wrong! I should've been the one to die, not Silena. It's all my fault! All mine! Noone else, but me...and I feel so guilty for everything! I can't do anything right." he shouts.

"Percy, stop. Stop it now. We will find Annabeth, and we WILL kill Andrew, Lily, and Ronny. And I'm guessing they probably took Annabeth. So, let's go find her. It'll be alrgiht." Katniss says.

"Ok." he says after a few seconds.

We search, and search some more, and search even more, when all of a sudden we hear a rustle in the ground. We all stop, and look around.

Bethany and Bryce.

They come out and show themselves.

"Don't panic! We're not going to hurt you." Bethany says.

"Oh yeah? And how do we know that for sure?" Danny asks.

"You just have to trust us, but we thought about it, and now that Mac and Darika are dead, we decided that we wanted to ali with you." explains Bryce.

We all look at each other, and come together in a huddle.

"What do you guys think?" Percy whispers to us.

"I don't know." we all say.

"Should we?" he asks.

"Let's give it a try, if they turn on us. Well, then they'll have to find out the hard way not to mess with us." Danny says.

"Ok."

We turn towards them.

"We accept your proposal to become alis." says Katniss.

"What the heck, Katniss? Why are you talking so fancy like? They aren't the royal family of England." I say.

"Sorry."

"So... we are going to go find Andrew, Lily, and Ronny. Demigods. And kill them. Don't ask, just come along." Percy says, eager to find Annabeth.

"Ok." Bryce and Bethany both say.

We search the arena, and finally find them, but we hide behind a tree, because they can't notice us yet.

"Ok, here's the plan." Percy says, and explains the plan.

Then we go into action.
