Welp. You're probably like, Emily what's up? You've posted about five chapters this weekend! So I'll tell you this:

I'm probably NOT going to be updating next week. I'm sorry. I'm really busy.

So, since I hate to disappoint my wonderful followers, I just had to post about a week's worth of chapters now.

That is all.

Enjoy the chapter.

Chapter Fourteen: Loneliness and Such Little Things

Annabeth POV

For some strange reason, Percy wasn't replying to my messages.

You okay, Percy? I've been writing to you a lot but you don't seem to be replying.

I set down my pen and stared at the words I'd just written. New words began to appear. I sat up, excited, but it wasn't Percy's handwriting.

Sorry, Annabeth. Percy's a little busy right now, I'm afraid. You can message him later. I'm sure that he'll be free. However, right now he's trying to find a way out of your diary.

-Kana.

I sighed and watched as even more words materialized, this time written in a style I'd never seen before.

Aaaaaaugh. Freaking get me out of here NOW! *NDA

I stared at this message, perplexed for a moment. Then I picked up my pen and wrote:

NDA? As in "Nico di Angelo"?

I immediately got a response back.

Yes. *NDA

What the heck are you doing inside of my diary, Nico? -Annabeth.

UUUUGHHH. Percy summoned me… *NDA

Whaddya mean "Percy summoned you"? -Annabeth.

Er… I may or may not have taught Percy to summon stuff using the words in your diary. -Kana.

Kana! So that's why the word "pen" was missing from one of my entries. Grr! I bet Percy's going crazy, summoning all sorts of stupid stuff like couches and heated toilet seats! -Annabeth.

Um… Percy can only summon stuff that's included in your diary entries. -Kana.

Yes I know. But I included things like couches and heated toilet seats in my diary entries. -Annabeth.

… Okay then. -Kana.

WHATEVER. I'm trying to reach PERCY, not contact you two. Since he's busy right now, I'm just gonna leave. Annabeth Chase, signing off. Good day. -Annabeth.

I closed my diary and looked around. I was currently standing on a land that was so flat, you could see it for miles and miles away. I looked at it thoughtfully. In my mind, I contemplated different things an architect would construct on such a nice, flat ground.

I opened my lunch box and had dinner. I realized that I was completely out of food. Time was running out. The possessed demigod problem had to be solved. Soon. Or else I was going to die of food starvation and such things like that.

I was suddenly aware of a presence behind me. I turned my head to see two guys and a girl. I felt like I'd seen them from somewhere before.

"Craaaaaaaaap," I said, reaching for my weapon, but their eyes flared red, and I slumped to the ground, unconscious.

Percy POV

I paced back and forth. Kana and Nico were having a heated discussion about a way to escape from the place. I was getting frantic. Annabeth had been alone for a while. I knew she could defend herself perfectly, but against possessed demigods, you never know. I couldn't help but worry about her. Was Annabeth okay? Was Annabeth okay? Was she okay?

Kana walked over to me. "I think Annabeth wants to talk to you."

Sure, I was really busy with trying to figure out how to get out of the diary, but I had to admit, I wanted to talk to her too. I took the pen she was holding and knelt down on a blank white space, about to write.

Hey, Annabeth. Everything okay? (Percy.)

I waited. There was no reply for a while, then…

Oh, hi! Percy! Why'd you message me? -Annabeth.

I frowned. That didn't look anything like Annabeth's handwriting.

Um... cuz you wanted to talk to me. Plus your handwriting changed a lot. (Percy.)

Another pause. Then, finally, a response.

O-oh really? I dunno I was just playing around with another style… -Annabeth.

I stared at it, contemplating what to do next.

Erm… okay then, Annabeth. Why'd you change your handwriting in the middle of a crisis? (Percy.)

Crisis? What crisis? -Annabeth.

I smacked my forehead. Was Annabeth losing her mind? First, she unexpectedly changes her handwriting style, then she completely forgets that possessed demigods are chasing after her!

You know, the possessed demigod crisis. Possessed demigods are chasing you, remember Annabeth? (Percy.)

I stared at what I'd just written. A reply began to appear…

Oh. Right. Er. Yeah. That crisis. Okay then. Um… So, how are things going at wherever you are, Per—

"Percy! Thank the gods!" a voice exclaimed from above me. It wasn't Kana, and it didn't sound like Nico, either.

I looked up.

It was Annabeth.

"Gaaaaah!" I yelped, startled to see her here, in the soul of her diary.

"Phew! I got knocked out, and woke up to find myself in the soul of my diary. I knew that you were here, so I set out to find you," she said.

"How are you in the soul of your diary?" I asked. "Aren't you… Outside the diary?"

"Not anymore." She bowed her head. "I got kidnapped and ended up Inside, just like you."

"Wait…" I stopped for a second. "If you were Inside here, then who the heck is this person on the Outside that's writing to me right now?"

"What do you mean?" Annabeth asked.

I pointed to the words. The reply had finished appearing. Now it said…

Oh. Right. Er. Yeah. That crisis. Okay then. Um… So, how are things going at wherever you are, Percy?

Oh wait, no. Don't tell me. I already know. You're in the soul of this diary I'm writing in right now. Because I was the one who kidnapped you and put you in there. I'm not Annabeth, because, as you probably know by now, I just recently kidnapped her and put her in there, too.

There's no way out for you, unfortunately.

Have a great time in there.

Sincerely, Sai Nishiki.

Chapter finished.

I'm sorry if I'm making Percy and Annabeth look kind of weak, to be captured so easily...

I kind of considered that.

But I thought that it would be alright because these creepy mental powers are supernatural and stuff.

If you have doubts about that, feel free to tell me.

See you all next weekend, then!
