Hey People! Sorry that I didn't update in FOREVER. I had to write this report on Beethoven for school, and my computer crashed, and I had no time at all. So I felt really bad for not updating, so I wrote this. Oh, and I was listning to Panic! at the Disco while writing this, so sorry if it turned out a little... weird. Don't worry, the chapters will get longer. Please Review!
Percy P.O.V.
Well, we had finally left the hospital with Luke after spending the night there, and we were in the car driving home. I was sitting in the back, and Luke was sitting in the passenger seat up front with Annabeth.
Now don't think I let him sit up there out of the kindness of my heart, because I didn't. No, it's because he's a guy that came back from the freaking dead, and I didn't want him attacking me from behind or anything.
I was intently watching him to see if he showed any zombie like actions. Up until now he was acting normal. Annabeth was the one acting strange. I expected her to be all over Luke, kissing and hugging him. But she wasn't. Actually, she looked like she wanted to kill him.
"We're going to stop for breakfast." She said in monotone as she turned into a empty road. Luke nodded, and crossed his arms, looking at Annabeth with a sad look on his face.
Let me tell you something about myself. I hate awkward silences. Their just so… awkward. And right now, there was a really awkward silence.
I was about to open my mouth to say something that would maybe lighten the mood, when I heard a loud crash, a sharp pain in my side and felt the car suddenly flip. I heard Annabeth scream, and Luke yell 'Annabeth!'.
The car was upside down, and my whole body was in pain. I felt myself slowly slipping into unconsciousness, but I tried fighting it, because I was pretty sure Annabeth and Luke were out cold.
Struggling, I tried to kick the door open, the pain in my side getting stronger and stronger. I wormed myself out the broken car, and collapsed onto the road.
I looked down at my side, and saw my white shirt soaking in blood. I almost threw up then and there. I carefully lifted my shirt up to see a long gash on my hip, oozing blood.
I looked back up at the car. It was a mess, the windows shattered, the tires all over place, and broken car pieces sticking up everywhere.
Then I saw Annabeth. She was In the car, her head against the shattered window, and dark red blood in her honey blonde hair.
A piece of metal had pierced through the windshield, pretty close to where Luke was. A sick feeling washed over me. The way it was angled, it either pierced through Luke's or neck.
I crawled over to Annabeth's side of the car, painfully tried to rip the door open, and peered inside once I succeeded. Annabeth's body was blocking the view of Luke. I took a deep breath and tried pulling her out.
After much struggling and pain, I managed to pull her out of the beat up car. She had a deep gash on her forehead, her clothes ripped and stained with her blood. I checked her pulse, and to my relief she still had one, but it was very faint.
"Annabeth. Annabeth, Wake up." I whispered hoarsely. I carefully shook her, and her eyelids fluttered.
She started coughing up blood. "Percy?" She managed to choke out. "What happened?"
I bit my lip and looked over at the car. "I-I don't know. But Luke's still in the car." She gave me a questioning look, and slowly turned her head to look at the car. Once she saw it, her eyes widened.
"No… no, no…" She murmured, trying to get up and go over to the car. Before I could tell her to stop, she had scrambled over to Luke's side of the car.
Then I heard her scream a bone-chilling scream. I quickly made my way to her side, and saw what I had feared. The piece of metal had pierced through Luke's neck and the seat, Luke's head lolling to the side.
Annabeth was in hysterics, screaming. "No! NO! LUKE!" she yelled, tears streaming down her face. The door was already ripped out, and Annabeth stuck out her hand to touch Luke's face. I held her back, and she resisted.
"Annabeth, stop. He's gone." I whispered softly to her. She looked so…heartbroken. I saw now how Nico felt seeing her like that.
"No… I just got him back! This can't be happening!" She sobbed. I pulled her close to me, hugging her in comfort. She sobbed into my shoulder, and I rubbed her back. I was going to tell Annabeth that Luke coming back wasn't supposed to be, but I got interrupted.
"Annabeth?" Luke said.
