Here's another chapter! Thanks for all the reviews and follows! It really inspires me to write more.

Disclaimer: I do not own the Percy Jackson series.

Percy pov:

Maybe I should be freaked out by what just happened. I mean Silena is pregnant! I should be questioning her like everyone else but for some reason I am calm. I am happy for her. Her and Beckendorf get to start a family together. It's exciting.

"Silena this is great news but why are you here? A war is practically already upon us. It is not safe," Aphrodite says looking concerned. "Mom I came here to fight. I was a traitor when I died and I want to make up for it. I understand that I am carrying another human being but I want to help. There is no changing my mind. Charles already tried." We look toward Beckendorf and he has a defeated look in his eyes. If he couldn't convince her, then we certainly can't. "Very well. If this is what you want, then so be it. I will do everything in my power to protect you and the baby," Aphrodite says and then wraps her arms around Silena.

I look toward Annabeth and find that she is lost in her own little world. "Annabeth?" She turns toward me and I find that her eyes are unfocused. "Annabeth, are you okay?" She slumps into my arms and starts shaking. "Annabeth!" Some campers hear me and get my dad. He rushes over. "What's happening?" I shake my head not knowing what's going on. "Somebody help her!" Just after I scream that, her body goes still.

Then bats come flying in from everywhere. People scream and duck trying to avoid them. They head straight for Annabeth. I try to stop them but they pick up Annabeth and carry her high up in the air. Hermes tries to fly up and rescue her but as soon as he gets within ten feet of her, he is blown back.

I stare in horror as she starts to speak in a deep woman's voice. "I am Nyx." Whispers start among us but all I want to do is go up there and save Annabeth. "I sat back and watched as Gaea and the giants failed to destroy all of you. I am here to complete the job. I am out for one demigod who I will stop at nothing to kill. Perseus Jackson. You always seem to change the tide of the war. This time you won't survive." The voice stops and Annabeth's body relaxes. The bats keep her raised. "Annabeth!" I scream and she slowly opens her eyes. "Percy! What's happening?" She looks around in terror and tries to fight off the bats but the bats are too strong. Then with one last scream of fury, they take off with her. I sprint after them calling after Annabeth. We can't get seperated again.

"Percy!" Her voice sounds so broken and all I can do is watch as they carry her away. Then I get an idea. I do a taxicab whistle and Blackjack appears at my side. What's up boss? "Annabeth is in trouble. Quickly." I hop on his back and he takes off. We fly low and follow the bats. From here I can see that Annabeth is unconscious. That makes me even angrier. "Blackjack faster!" He speeds up and too late do I find that the barrier is still up. We smash into it and the effects are immediate. I am blown off of Blackjack and into the air. For a second I feel as if I am floating but then I start to plummet. The ground is rising suprisingly fast. If I die, I won't exist anymore. I won't ever see my friends, my dad or Annabeth again. That brings me back to reality. Um...Zeus I know we don't have the best relationship but could you save me from istant death? Thanks. I close my eyes and hit something hard but it isn't concrete and I'm not dead.

I open my eyes and find I'm back at the throne room. My whole body is sore probably from hitting that forcefield. I groan and sit up. "That was incredibly stupid." I look up when I hear Thalia's voice. She isn't wearing her usual smirk. Instead she has a serious look on her face. "Yeah well," I stand up and dust myself off. "What did you want me to do? Let them carry her away? I had to try." Nobody says anything for a while but you can feel the sadness in the air.

Annabeth was taken away from us again. The worst part is Nyx will surely keep her alive and torture her for information. I couldn't bear if she got hurt. Seeing her after she held up the sky was something I never want to see again. She had a hopeless look in her eyes because she thought no one would come save her. She has to know I will do anything to get her back.

I am snapped out of my thoughts by Athena. "We have to set up magical boundaries. No one is safe. Training needs to be serious with no goofing around. If we want to get Annabeth back, then we need to train hard." Campers immediatly go into the training area and start hacking at dummies. As for me, well I just stand there. I don't know what to do anymore. "We'll get her back." I turn around when I hear Zoe's voice. She sends me a sad smile and puts an arm on my shoulder. "Annabeth is tough. She'll be fine." I want to believe her but all I can imagine is Annabeth screaming as she gets tortured. I shake my head. I can't think like that. Thalia looks grief stricken. She is losing Annabeth again just when she got her back. The thing is that for once in my life I feel useless.

Jason pov:

I order some hellhounds to guard the entrance of New Rome. They don't listen. Stupid creatures. I am walking through the city when I hear whoops and cheers. I turn the corner and see a bunch of bats and monsters surrounding something. Nyx appears and smiles wickedly. "Move away. She's mine." The path clears and what I see shocks me.

Annabeth is scratched and bloody. She isn't awake but I can feel her fear. I told Nyx not to harm any of my friends but how is Annabeth here? I killed her. I walk over and flip the coin from my pocket. It instantly turns into a sword and I hold it in front of me. "Nyx. What are you planning to do with her?" I ask suspiciously. Nyx smiles and greets me. "Jason how nice of you to join us. Come now. She is rising." I take a step infront of her and kneel next to Annabeth. She opens her eyes and when she spots me anger fills them. "Jason Grace, traitor to Olympus," she hisses angrily. "Is that my title now?" I ask smirking. I back away from her and Nyx grabs her by the shirt.

Annabeth struggles but she is no match for a primordial. "Jason. Bring her to the cell." I take a tight grip on Annabeth and bring several hellhounds with me. She curses me the whole way. "I never knew you had such a dirty mouth," I say looking at her. She looks at me in disgust. "You're just like all those monsters and giants we killed. I thought you were different." I tilt my head and give her a sneer. "Seems like you're talking about Luke." Then before I can move she has a hand on my shirt and is glaring into my eyes. "You never even knew Luke. He was a hero unlike you. You asshole." For a minute, I don't speak. True I never met Luke but I heard stories. He seems to be exactly like I am expect he was stupid enough to get himself killed. That will not happen to me. We make it to the cell and I throw Annabeth in. She pounds against the cell bars but there is no way she can escape. Erebus appears beside me. "Well what do we have here? Hmmm...daughter of Athena." Erebus thinks for a second before his face turns into an evil smirk. He flashes off and then returns with a bucket of something. I get closer and see that they're spiders. No. "This is kind of uncalled for. Just keep her in the cell." Erebus pushes me to the side. "I told Nyx that you wouldn't be worthy of our army but she obviously likes you. I wonder why but for now move aside." He throws in the bucket and it clatters inside the cell. I hear screaming as the spiders attack Annabeth. Erebus flashes away with a satisfied smile. I am just about to walk away but I stop when I hear, "No please!" I have never heard Annabeth plead with anyone. She is always so strong. I can't leave her like that. I grab a nearby hose and open the cell. I spray down everything and the spiders go scuttling out of the room. Annabeth sits in the corner soaking wet from the water. She is shaking but I don't think it's from the cold water.

"Annabeth..." She doesn't look up but I can see spider bites all over her body. "I'll come back tomorrow. Okay?" She doesn't respond but I realize how bad this must of been for her. She had to fight Arachne and that must of been terryifying. Now here we are throwing thousands of spiders onto her. I close the cell and walk away. I don't want Annabeth to die. So why do I want everyone else to? I am a killer.

Thanks for reading!
