About what you wrote, I got it. I don't want you to feel uncomfterable, that would be mean of me. Sorry I if had, it's just that I want more from Percy and Annabeth not just hugs and kisses, does that make sense? Oh by the why it make total sense why you had to kill percy. Here are some ideas tha could help if you need them. Percy gets really cool stuff for saving Olympus. Second what about Grover? He could come back some time right? Third have like a sword fight between Percy and Annabeth (it's kind of their thing). Fourth have a game of capture the flag, that will be fun to read. Fifth tell how Annabeth is still working on fixing Mt. Olympus from the giants war. Six have percy father talk to him. Seven have percy "bend" the water at camp, or make a little air bubble around himself, something around those lines. And know that I'm supporting you in this story! Hope you use some of my ideas can't wait till next chapter! ;)
To answer your questions. I might add a couple of those ideas to the second book. I like the idea of capture the flag. I could add the sword fight in there. I could have annabeth working on some drawings in the beginning of the second book, I could have Oceanus come to camp and fight PErcy? That would result some water "bending".THank you so much for your support martharose! these ideas really help me :)
Enjoy chapter 14!

Percy
My heart dropped into my stomach. I got hit with flashbacks of Annabeth being almost killed by Polysemous. I slowly nodded, as I examined the area that Annabeth was pointing to. "Remind me who Polysemous is?" Piper asked, uncertainly. Before I could reply, Annabeth spoke up, while she stared at the Fleece. "Polysemous was the Cyclops who got his eye poked with a hot stick by Odysseus. We met him in the Sea of Monsters." I heard a pin drop in the room when she was finished. I put my arm around her for support. "I think you told me that story before." Leo commented. Annabeth nodded. "I'm sure he's gone now." I assured Annabeth. She nodded, but didn't look convinced. "Leo set course for the Bermuda Triangle." Annabeth ordered. "Okie-dokie" Leo said. After he left I pulled Annabeth into a hug. "Everything will be fine. We are going to get out of this mess, okay?" I told her. "Okay." Annabeth murmured.
A little while later, I decided to go for a stroll around the ship. Even though I was bone tired, I couldn't sleep. Those stupid dreams I had about Annabeth dying really got to me. I also thought that those events wouldn't happen on this quest, but one coming up. I just wondered why I was getting shown these dreams now. They were probably gifts from Gaea. Knowing her, she would want me to start worrying. I pushed all of those thoughts aside. I decided to go to sleep, so I could find out what Gaea wanted with me. As I started to fall asleep, I concentrated really hard about wanting to dream of Gaea. It worked, almost too good.
I was standing underground, in a tunnel. There wasn't much oxygen, but enough to stay alive. Old Dirt Face herself was standing in front of me in a black dress, with a veil covering her face. "Gaea." I snarled. She smiled in her creepy way. "Ah my little pawn, did you like the dreams I sent you?" I stared at her like she had just slapped me. "You sent me those!" I yelled. My suspicions were correct. Gaea nodded. "I didn't alter them at all though, that is purely the future." She told me. I just about passed out. Annabeth was going to die, with me following. "I don't believe you!" I said, my voice quivering. Gaea smirked and continued. "Once I have you in my embrace, you, and your little girlfriends blood will wake me, and there is nothing you can do to stop it."
I reached into my pocket, and uncapped Riptide. I marched up to her, and tried to stab her, but she just smiled, and I woke up in a cold sweat. Riptide was in my hands, which I found weird. I must've been so used to uncapping it, that I did it in my sleep. I put the cap on Riptide, and it shrank into a pen. I got up and walked out of the room. I wasn't going to tell Annabeth about this dream. I didn't want to confirm her suspicions. I walked over to the dining room. Everyone was sitting down, and eating. They all looked up when I walked in. I sat beside Annabeth, and grabbed some food. "Have a good sleep?" Annabeth asked me. "Uh, yeah, fine." I told her. She scanned my face, trying to figure out what I had dreamed about. I avoided her gaze, and ate. As soon as I was finished, I left without a word.
Of course, Annabeth followed me. I went into my room, and she followed. "What is your problem?" I asked. She raised her eyebrows. "You tell me." She said. I sighed. "I just had a nightmare okay? It's nothing to worry about." I replied. She stared at me some more. "I can't tell you!" I yelled. She looked hurt, and turned to leave. "Annabeth wait!" I said. I grabbed her shoulders. "I just can't tell you. I don't want to think it's true. Please stop asking me about it." I said, softly. She avoided my gaze for a moment, and then she looked me straight in the eye. "Okay, but if it's something about the quest you need to tell me." She pointed out. "It was about Gaea…I'm not saying anything else." I confirmed. She nodded, with tears in her eyes and left the room.
I felt terrible. First I yell at Annabeth, and then I say I can't tell her about my dream? I'm stupid, I should've told her, but I didn't want to scare her. I sighed, and thought I should give her some time. I pulled Riptide out of my pocket, and uncapped it. It sprung to full size in my hands. I studied it, wondering why I couldn't just be a normal guy. Is that too much to ask for?
I love writing. lol. Comment, and follow please!
