Thanks to everyone who has supported my story so far. You all are amazing.

By the way the time frame for this story is the summer after the Titon war but before Percy and Jason were swapped. I don't know which day they were swapped so we'll just say it was more towards the end of the summer after the Titon war rather than the beginning so that this little story could happen.

Chapter 2

Annabeth POV

When the Apollo kids rushed Percy into the infirmary on a stretcher I tried to follow. But Chiron stepped in front of me, "Wait Annabeth, I'm sorry but you may want to-"

I pushed past him not really caring what he had to say at the moment. Something was wrong with Percy and I was going to be with him. But I wasn't prepared for the shock that awaited me.

My heart sunk. Already laying in the cots being tended to were Nico and Thalia.

I covered my hand over my mouth to muffle my sob. I would not cry. I had been through way too much to cry. But the tears caught in my throat and threatened to burst.

Chiron clopped into the room; his eyes full of sympathy and morn.

I rapped my arms around my mentor. Through all of my problems he had been there ever since I was seven on that horrid night Thalia turned into a pine tree.

Grover was trembling in the corner of the room. His lip quivered. Of course he was upset too. This would be almost as hard on him as it was on me. Almost.

I sat in the big house shivering for hours waiting for some sort of news. Water dripped off my clothes and I hugged my legs which had goose bumps on them.

It had to be at least three in the morning when the counselors of each cabin were called to the big house. I was already there waiting.

Just waiting had been the worst part. Waiting for what? I felt hopeless and lost; like my world was collapsing around me and I couldn't do a thing about it until we knew something more.

Chiron was the last to come in but his face did not show any hope. I sighed and sat up a little straighter.

"Councilors I'm afraid I bring some very bad news." Chiron said.

Everyone's face dipped and there was a lot of scowls.

"Thalia, Percy, and Nico are not looking well and even in my experience in these things I have not seen anything like it."

"Will they survive?" Will asked downhearted.

"There is a way." Chiron said. A spark of hope arose in me. I looked up at Chiron.

"How?" I asked desperately.

"A quest to find the old god of healing, Asclepius."

I nodded in recognition. Asclepius had healed many plagues in the ancient times that no one knew how to heal.

"But Asclepius has not been heard from since the gods revived him and made him a immortal."

"Wait so he died?" Katie asked.

"Yes, Zeus struck him down after he started rising people from the dead and upsetting the nature of the world." Chiron looked extremely sorrowed about this.

"Serves him right. So why revive him?" Clarisse muttered.

"He was a child of Apollo and lets just say he wasn't to happy with Zeus when he did that. Another war of the gods almost occurred."

Everyone shook their head at the childish ways of the gods. They played with mortals and demigods like they were toys for their enjoyment.

I zoned out as the conversation continued. Most of it was about the history stuff I knew anyway. I starred at the empty chairs of the Hades and Poseidon cabin and felt my fear slowly bubble into a churning anger. Whoever did this to my friends would feel the wrath of Annabeth Chase.

"Who shall lead the quest?" Phoebe, the huntress who temporarily replaced Thalia said.

"I will." I stood with deturmination.

Chiron smiled at me softly like he knew I would volunteer. "Good, you need to visit Rachel before you leave and pick two members to join you."

I looked around at my companions. None were as close as the three suffering from the illness in the infirmary.

"Grover will you come with me?" I asked him. The satre looked frightened but he gave me a determined nod. I looked around at the other people in the room. I didn't feel that anyone else would make a good companion.

The huntress Phoebe saw my distress and stood, "I shall join Annabeth as it tis one of our own ill as well."

I nodded gratefully to her. She would complete the trio.

Grover looked a little nervous having a hunter with us.

"Good then it's settled." Chiron said, "Annabeth, Phoebe, and Grover will search out the healing god. Annabeth you need to visit Rachel."

On the outside I pursed my lips and nodded but on the inside I was scowling and saying curses in Greek. I still held onto a little bit of jealousy for Rachel.

Wow that chapter was hard and easy at the same time. I had to do a lot of research on some of these new characters I'm creating. Sorry if Annabeth seams OOC I did my best but she is pretty upset.

So a fan question for you guys which Percy Jackson book is your favorite?

Thanks everyone :)
