Hi there! I know I haven't updated, but I had no inspiration til now. I mean just this morning did I finish this short chapter. I'll try to make the next chapters longer!

Disclaimer found on prologue.

"Stupid Stolls and their rabid monkeys... Stupid Ramsay for making me go to all that trouble to just get his notebook." Dimitri grumbled. The arm which the monkey bit was still bleeding.

He quickly went to the infirmary. Once he arrived, he checked the room a bit to see if anyone was there. Luckily for him, there wasn't. He took a canister of nectar, and dropped some on the bite. It quickly healed. He quickly returned the canister to where it was and left to find Evion.

"That Ramsay is going to get it." Dimitri said through grit teeth.

-Line Break-

"And if you multiply the x-integral and cancel the blah blah blah..." That's what Percy heard from his math teacher Mr. Jung. His ADHD was worse today for some reason. He can't even try to listen.

"Any questions?" Mr. Jung asked. A chorus of "None sir." echoed throughout the room. "Okay, let's proceed to the next lesson."

Thwack

"What the?" Percy looked down at the crumpled paper ball that hit his head and landed on his desk.

Messy handwriting was scrawled on the paper, making it harder for Percy to read.

'Dude, she's been giving you the look for almost an hour now.'

Percy turned to look at Kyle, who nudged his head at the direction of Stacy.

Stacy was staring at Percy with want in her eyes; she gave a wink then turned her attention to her notebook.

He looked at Kyle and just shook his head and mouthed 'Girlfriend'

-Line Break-

The sounds of people singing echoed throughout the amphitheatre. The fire was not as tall as it usually is, because of the murderer. Yet they seem to enjoy the day (or night) as they usually do.

"OK everyone. It is curfew, go to your respective cabins now." Chiron said.

Everyone went to their cabins, except Annabeth. She was walking to her room in the Big House, when she heard a rustle. She was about to check it when she felt the wind, she thought caused the rustle.

She entered her room, which was nothing great. Just a bed, a desk table, and a small airconditioner at the corner. There was a built in closet at the wall, and it was a bit larger than most.

She lay down on the bed, not bothering to change her clothes.

-Line Break-

The murderer casually entered the room, with no problem. The traps that surrounded the room where the girl was, were useless.

The person contemplated whether or not to torture Annabeth, but laughed cruelly. 'Of course, I would never let her die quickly.' the murderer thought.

The murderer slung Annabeth over his, or maybe her, shulder and tied her down on a chair on the far corner of the room. "Wake up."

Annabeth groaned, "What time is it?"

Annabeth couldn't see anything clearly, until her eyes adjusted to the darkness. She gasped as she saw the masked person.

"Surprised?" the masked murderer drawled. He raised a small dagger and put the tip of it near Annabeth's heart, but withdrew it.

"I'm not letting you die easily."

"Me neither." another voice said as it attacked the murderer. The murderer was pushed towards the wall, knocking the wind out of their body.

"Kira!" Annabeth gasped, as she saw that it was Kira who attacked. 'And I was starting to think she was the murderer.' Annabeth thought guiltily. Kira wore a plain black shirt and black pants and shoes. Everything was black, so she couldn't be seen well.

"You." the murderer threw the dagger towards Kira, who just caught it.

"I'm going to kill you." Kira said murderously. She ran towards the hunter, dagger in hand. She threw something towards the hunter, but before it could reach its target it exploded, cracking some parts of the mask.

Upper right of the face was revealed, which showed brown hair and red eyes.

"Good for you, Kira. You actually cracked my mask."

Kira said nothing as she threw the dagger. The murderer caught the dagger with his right hand, like Kira.

"Fool, you just gave me a weapon."

"You're the fool to think I helped you."

The murderer dropped the dagger, as he felt something electrifying on his right hand.

Annabeth looked at the two fight, while she was tied to the chair. She was saved from nearly dying from the hands of the murderer. The two were fighting with such intensity, it surprised Annabeth didn't get hit at all.

"How?"

"Simple. My hands electrified it while I was holding it."

"But I did not know of this-"

"Of course you don't," Kira kicked his stomach "I don't reveal all my secrets."

"Then enough playing around then."

"You're right, enough playing around." Kira punched him, her arm electrically charged.

He caught it, which was painful, as he felt his whole arm numb.

"You knew your arm would go numb." Kira narrowed her eyes

"Better than my internal organs getting electrified." he punched her as he was still holding her arm. She flew towards the closet, which was far from Annabeth. His right arm fell limp to his side.

"Enough!" he barked, blood coming from his mouth. He picked up the dagger, and went over to Kira. "Prepare to die, halfblood!"

Kira coughed out some blood, and stared at him before using both of her legs to kick him. He was outbalanced for a short moment before steadying himself.

Annabeth tried to wriggle herself out of her confines, but doing so unsuccessfully. "Di immortales." murmured Annabeth. Only Annabeth's corner was unaffected from the carnage of the fight. "She's trying to put the fight away from me as far as possible." she whisphered as realization dawned on her.

Kira was coughing up blood, as she was stabbed in the stomach. She was held up by her shirt.

"You're really hard to kill, Kira." he murmured. It was surprising that the rest of the mask had not fallen off during the fight. Kira smiled ruefully, "You should run, I hear people approa...ching."

He dropped Kira and disappeared before saying. "I'll be back soon Annabeth. Don't worry."

"Annabeth!" Chiron wheeled into the room, followed by Malcolm. They stared at the room. They saw Kira's body at the corner near Annabeth, who stared at Kira's body. The chest no longer heaved up and down, and the light in her eyes dimmed.

"I hope you receive Elysium for what you did, Kira..." Annabeth muttered. "Annabeth, are you okay?" Malcolm asked, as he started untying the binds Annabeth was in.

"Who was that Annabeth?" Malcolm asked another question. As he Chiron just stared at the state the room was in.

"Kira..." Annabeth whispered, Malcolm almost didn't hear. "She saved me from almost dying..."

"I'm sorry..."

-Chapter End-
