Hey guys! A lot of reviewers keep asking: What's up with Annabeth? Is she "going to pull a Luke"? Or what? Well, read on and find out. ;)

DISCLAIMER: I don't own any of the PJO characters!


Annabeth's POV:

My mind is foggy, and my vision's blurred. I'm stumbling through the streets of Rome- I could recognize the architecture anywhere.

I feel nauseous, and my knees feel weak. I feel like curling up into a ball, but that voice, a voice I haven't heard in a while, makes me keep going.

Find me, Annabeth…

I shout the person's name in the air. But in the wind, it sounds like an empty, hollow cry.

The logic in my brain tells me this isn't possible- I can't suddenly appear in Rome in the blink of an eye, or hear that voice...

Save me, Annabeth…

"Luke!" I scream, and run faster. My lungs burn and I gasp for breath. I have to keep running, I think. I have to find him.

What if he's trouble? What if Gaea has him?

But...

What if Gaea is playing with me?

Annabeth! The sound is choked and pained. I run harder, turning into an alley. "Luke!"

He sounds close. I'm almost there, I think, sprinting. My emotions are a mess, relatively unusual for me.

But, Percy- and Reyna...

NO.

Don't think of him- ever. Don't think of them. The though makes my knees want to buckle.

How dare he betray me? After all I've- I've given to him!

Gods, I gave up my virginity to him...

No. No. No.

I must focus, concentrate. I can save Luke, my childhood friend- he can help me get through all of this...

"Yes," I breathe. "I have to find Luke. I must."

Annabeth!

"I'm coming!" I shout, and a sudden blinding light startles me to the ground.

"I've been waiting for you, child of Athena." a cold voice hisses. The voice seems to wrap around my chest, squeezing the breath out of me.

"No!" I try to scream, but nothing comes out. For once, Annabeth Chase did not have anything to say.

I was stunned speechless.


Awh, snap! Guys, this was fun to write, and maybe, just maybe we'll get more chapters in Annabeth's POV later! I think we could get more insight on how "that hissing voice" messes with our blonde Wise Girl... Idk. What do you think? Please review! (Sorry for the short chapter guys. I'm a sick, twisted person for playing you like this. Mybad.)
