I own nothing

Damon groaned as he rolled onto his side. His side where Annabeth had stabbed him was still sore. He got up and looked around him. "Woah." Klaus, Elijah and Rebecca were all standing above him. Elena, Stefan, and Caroline were tied up with vervain ropes. Damon looked at Klaus. "What the hell is this?" He growled. Klaus smiled at him. "Well lad, you see, I blame you for letting the girl escape. You could've stopped her but you basically let her escape. I don't appreciate that, so I've decided to make you help us get her back, and if we don't retrieve her by midnight, everyone here dies. The end." Damon snarled. "Come on! Why do you even want her? She doesn't belong here with us! Maybe it's the right thing that she's gone!"

"I won't accept that mate. She's the most valuable asset I've come across in a thousand years. I'm not letting her go that easy." Klaus said.

Elijah nodded. "I'm afraid that in this particular case I'm going to have to agree with my brother. She is extraordinary." Rebekah smiled sweetly at Damon. Damon gave her his ultra evil look reserved just for her. "Fine. "Let's get out of here."

Percy opened his eyes. He was lying on the hard bed in the old motel room. Moonlight streamed in through the window. He could feel Annabeth's steady breathing on his shoulder. She was still asleep. The evening had been a blur. He still couldn't believe that they had done it...it happened so suddenly. One minute he was rinsing her neck, then he was looking in her eyes, and next thing he knew they were on the bed. It had been one of the most amazing nights of Percy's life. He felt like all the time he had been missing Annabeth, worrying and thinking about her had been bottled up inside of him, and he had just let it flow out. Annabeth must have felt similar. Percy smiled at the thought and brushed a blond curl behind her ear. She looked so peaceful when she slept. Less angry. Despite being a crappy motel room in the middle of nowhere right after Annabeth had been kidnapped, there was something beautiful about the situation to Perch. Maybe it was just the way the moonlight illuminated Annabeths face. Maybe it was the soft sound of crickets outside. Maybe it was the fireflies in the window. Or maybe it was Percy realizing how much he loved Annabeth. How important she was to him. Percy smiled at closed his eyes and drifted into a dreamless sleep.

The wind blew on Damon's face as he sniffed the air. Annabeth's sweet scent was still lingering in the air, moving north. "This way." He told the Originals. Klaus grinned evily at Damon and stalked past him. Elijah clapped his shoulder and followed close behind. Rebekah stopped and regarded Damon. "If you want something princess just say it." Damon told her flatly. "Oooh, aren't we touchy!" Rebekah said. Damon glared at her. "I don't even understand what you want with her." Rebekah rolled her eyes. "We've already explained this a million times. She's a weapon and a huge asset. This is a huge advantage. Why are you so attached to her anyway?" Damon looked out into the fields below the hill they were on. It was barely sunrise and the sun softly lit up the grass. But in the distance large clouds loomed over the woods, as if foretelling that something bad would happen. "She deserves better. You saw what she's been through." Rebekah went silent. Then she shrugged and walked past Damon.
