Hey PEEPS! This is another chappie for Witness Protection! Thank you reviewers! Lately I've been sick, so I've not been able to type… so sorry for the wait! I'm so proud of myself because I learned how to sew on a sewing machine! I named mine Betsy… Everyone in my class had to name their machine, and don't say it… I know I have a wako teacher.

Witness Protection

Chapter 7

PERCY POV

Annabeth and I meet up at the lake before lunch. "Hey." I said when she sat down next to me.

She looked into my eyes. Grey and Green. A good match. "Hey." We sat in silence, and I could feel some tension between us. We had a rocky relationship, and I was supposed to be her protector, in some ways more than others.

I looked away, breaking the contact. We are only supposed to be friends. "Sorry." I said, and I felt a blush coming on. How does she make me blush?

"It's okay. It's the past." She said, sitting up more.

"Good. Now, my father thinks that our relationship shouldn't happen, so I don't want to get in the mess." I told her in a shaky voice.

"Percy, if you don't want to, it's fine with me. I really don't want to get caught up with your dad either." Annabeth said. I smiled and nodded.

We looked at the lake, imagining what things we would undertake in the future. "PERCY! ANNABETH!" Someone yelled in the trees.

I looked towards the woods, and saw a crazed Nico running towards us. "What do you want?" I asked, way calmer then psycho boy over there.

"GROVER IS CHASING ME! HIDE!" He yelled. I heard a ringing in my ear, from the kid yelling so loud.

"Nico. I am right next to you. You do not need to scream." I said, taking his shoulders in my hands.

"BUT-"I cut him off.

"SHUT UP!" I yelled at his face. I heard a giggle who I assume to be Annabeth.

"Dude. I'm right here. You don't need to yell." Nico said calmly. I could feel my face getting red in anger.

"You better run Nico." Annabeth laughed. Nico looked at her, then at me. He took off running.

"Annabeth." I said through my teeth.

"Yes Percy?"

"Dig a hole for me." With that, I took off running after Nico.

After I killed Nico, we were all at the dining pavilion. "Campers! Take your seats!" Chiron yelled, and all of the kids ran like little mice to their seats. "We have four new councilors!"

On cue, Annabeth, Nico, Grover, and I stood up, and received applause from the campers. I smiled when I saw the large smile on Annabeth's face.

We sat down after a couple seconds. I looked back at Chiron, who was by me. "Percy, I need to talk to you." I excused myself from the table of people I don't even know, and followed Chiron to a good kilometer from the pavilion.

"What is it Chiron?" I asked, itching to know what is so important.

"I found out that Luke has been looking for Annabeth." I instantly wanted Annabeth in my arms. Her life was in danger.

"Has the FBI been looking for him?" I asked, looking into his old brown eyes.

"They have, but they have failed to find him." Chiron looked down, "I am deeply sorry Percy. I know that the girl is important to you." I looked at him with defeat.

"If she dies… I don't know what I will do with myself." My voice cracked at the word 'die'. Annabeth cannot die. Not as long as I'm alive.

Chiron wheeled to my side and patted my shoulder. "I know you will do what is best, Perseus." When he said my full name, it didn't make me feel discussed. It rather made me feel safe, and that I could do what is best.

"Thank you Chiron. We probably should be heading back to the pavilion." I gathered myself up, and walked to the pavilion. I wonder what Annabeth will think of this?

ANNABETH POV

Percy left with Chiron, leaving a confused me. Why did Chiron need to talk to him?

"Hi, my name is Thalia Grace." A girl dressed in black said. She had electric blue eyes and black hair with blue highlights. I think Nico would like this kind of girl.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Annabeth Jackson. That idiot who went with Chiron just now is my husband, Percy Jackson." I said sweetly. Thalia smiled.

"Okay, since no one else is introducing themselves, I must do that for the poor people here," Thalia started, pointing to a buff girl and a buff guy, "These people are Clarisse and Chris Rodriguez."

I nodded, and she pointed to an African American guy who was buff, and a girl who practically hung onto his arm. The girl could've been a model she was so pretty. "These two are Charles and Selina Beckendorf." I smiled at them and they did back. Thalia pointed to a chubby dude dressed in purple. "This is Pollex." I nodded at him and he lifted his head.

We talked about camp activity funds and fundraisers that we could do to get more money. Percy walked in as if he'd been here the whole time, and sat next to me. I introduced him to the counselors and he got right into the conversation with us.

I could see Nico giving googley eyes to Thalia, and Thalia gave them back. I whispered to Percy, "Looks like Nico's gonna get a date." Percy gave me a questioning look, and I nodded my head towards the goofy lovers.

"Huh. Looks like he is." Percy smiled, and he took my hand. Probably for show for the other counselors. We needed to act more couple like. I mean, we are playing a married couple.

When to horn was blown to represent the campers bed time, and the counselors time to go, we all said our good byes and left for home.

"Percy, what did Chiron say when he asked to go with him?" I asked.

He gave me a 'do I have to tell you?' look, and I raised my eyebrow. He sighed and said, "He really didn't give me the best news…"

"And?"

"He said that Luke was still looking for you, and was getting close." It all came out of his mouth in a blur, and I started to hyperventilate.

"Annabeth, you need to calm down. I will not let anything come in reaching distance of you. Scouts promise."

I felt like I had my insides flipped out, but I still believed him. "You do realize that you have to be a actual scout to do that, right?" I said with a cocked eyebrow. Percy's face turned beat red.

"I was voted best scout, 2 years running." He blushed. I laughed at him and he let out a goofy smile. "We're even, right?" I smiled and nodded my head. Together, I knew that we could take on anything.

Thanks for reading! Okay, today I will write like crazy, and get a lot of chappies up. The reason why I do writing frenzies is because I want to get you ready for my sequel of THE CHASE, which is coming out on Christmas!
