PIPER:

I had seen Annabeth via Iris Message. It wasn't sent by her, though. That's what I didn't get; since for all of I know, Gaea could've sent that to trick us, lead us away, from Annabeth, not near her.

I was talking to Jason and we were just about to kiss—when I saw the floating Iris Message.

I noticed Annabeth walking into some sort of temple in Rome (from what I could tell when we had been there. She walked in, took a deep breath, and the connection broke.

I glanced back at Jason and he looked deep in thought, so I went near the others and said,

"You guys, I think I know exactly where Annabeth is," I said.

"WHERE?" They all yelled while running over to me.

"She's entering the Underworld. The RomanUnderworld."

I had actually meant to say a temple in Rome, but something inside me told me to say the Roman Underworld.

Yes, I thought. Now I can lure them into my clutches.

Wait, what? That was obviously not me thinking. That had to be someone else's thoughts. Then I stopped in horror and realization.

Gaea? I asked myself.

I could almost hear her rolling her eyes, wanting to say a bitter retort, but she didn't have a mouth, well mine actually. But I wasn't letting her take control of my body. Oh yes you will, Gaea whispered evilly.

Yeah right. I thought that's going to happen.

Oh it will, I promise you. Pretty soon I will be either completely in control of you, or you will be compelled to do as I wish. Either way, you cannot escape me, little demigod.

There had to be a way out of this. I have no idea how I'm going to withstand her powers, let alone act normal around the others. I was scared, and I was certain of one thing.

That thing is: I am possessed by Gaea.

PERCY:
Annabeth is in trouble. That was the only thought my brain could process right now. It was an instinct feeling; the same way you know you need to breathe air and sleep.

Anyway, when Piper talked, there was something different about her voice. Like she was being forced to say something she didn't want to say. She sounded like Luke had when he'd first been possessed; it was Luke's voice, and then Kronos'.

That made it seem as if Piper is possessed—not likely, but hey, it's still possible. She looked really uncomfortable, and for some reason, just looking at her increased my suspicions.

"So, how are we going to get into the Underworld?" Frank asked.

"Well, I dunno, but if we try to enter it here, we'll end up in Hades' realm, not Pluto's, where Annabeth is."

They all murmured agreement, and Jason spoke up,

"So, do we go back to the Argo II?"

"I have a better idea." I said.

I took out the ice whistle I used to call Mrs. O'Leary and puffed into it, and instantly, my faithful dog (hellhound, but whatever) appeared.

"Woof!" she barked.

I smiled and got on her large back, whispering in her ear to get her to take us to Rome.

I briefly explained shadow traveling and how Mrs. O'Leary could take us to Rome, and the others mounted her back, and we headed into an alley.

The alley had plenty of shadows and Mrs. O' Leary bounded into a shadow near a trash can, and just before we hit the wall, we passed into shadows as cold as Antarctica.

Piper and Hazel were screaming their heads off, but we guys were just whooping with delight.

About two and a half minutes later, we arrived in Rome. We all got off Mrs. O' Leary, who staggered around and fell to the floor exhaustedly.

I glanced back at my friends, Piper and Hazel looked about ready to puke, and the rest of us looked normal, like we hadn't just traveled through shadows as cold as New York's winter.

"We should find an Ancient Roman cemetery that would be the easiest way to enter the Underworld." Hazel said.

We nodded and started looking around; I saw some signs, which were written in Latin: Pantheon-dextram

Romanam coemeterio-dextram, protinus.

Pluto- idem directiones ut Antiqua Romani Cementery

I could tell from my time at Camp Jupiter that the sign said:

Pantheon- turn right

Ancient Roman Cemetery- turn right, go straight

Pluto- same directions as Ancient Roman Cemetery.

Leo and Piper were trying to read the sign, but then they realized the sign was in Latin, so they asked Jason to translate for them.

"Pantheon- turn right

Ancient Roman Cemetery- turn right, go straight

Pluto- same directions as Ancient Roman Cemetery." Said Jason.

We all nodded and started walking to the cemetery. Soon, Hazel said we had to go straight to get to the cemetery.

In about ten minutes, we reached the cemetery.

"We have to search for a door somewhere. It has to be around here." Said Hazel while glancing around the tombstones, searching for the door.

I bent down, and squatted at the edge of the grave. I thought I'd seen a small door near this grave.

"Hazel! I think I found something." I said.

Hazel walked over and knelt next to me.

"Yeah, I think this is the door. You guys, come on, we found it!" she said.

The others came over to us and Hazel closed her eyes in concentration. I could tell she was commanding the door to expand to a bigger size, so that we could fit in it when we walked through it.

After a little while, Hazel opened her eyes again, and I watched as the door grew in size, until it was as tall as me.

"We have to go in this door, there'll be a tunnel and we go through that and I'm almost positive Annabeth should be somewhere close to the tunnel." Hazel said confidently.

I took a deep breath and pushed open the door. I walked into the tunnel, and the others followed me. We descended into the narrow tunnel for maybe ten or fifteen minutes.

I saw a pale light at the end of the tunnel. I thought it was the light of Elysium, but when we got there, we saw the glint of a bronze castle in the distance.

Once we reached the end of the tunnel, I saw one of my least favorite gods glowering down at me.

Hades sneered at me.

"And just what, are you doing in my realm, demigods?

ANNABETH:

I walked into the Pantheon, the sacred temple of all the major Roman gods. I heard something hissing, it sounded like… Oh gods, no. Just my luck. It sounded like Medusa. Damn it. I had thought she would stay dead as long as Percy's alive. Since usually when she's killed, she stays dead as long as the hero who killed her is alive.

"How wonderful! The daughter of Athena is alone this time, she won't be able to kill me." Said Medusa gleefully.

"I can kill you. I am the wisest child of Athena in ages. Mother told me exactly how to kill you." I said.

That last part was a lie- I was bluffing.

I had a feeling she knew I was lying. She sneered at me and she took off her head wrap thing, revealing her disgusting snake hair.

I looked away instinctively.

Use your powers, Annabeth. You can kill this beast alone. Athena whispered.

Use my powers… I could conjure the video shield I used in the Titan War last year.

I concentrated, and soon enough, the shield was in my hand. Thank the gods there was natural light in this place. I refocused the video shield to where Medusa stood behind me, and she sprinted toward me, and I stepped aside at the last moment.

She howled in rage, and ran towards me again. She tried to knock me backwards and unfortunately I didn't see it coming.

I flew backwards slammed my head against the statue of Juno.

I sat groggily, but the effort took all of my strength. Black spots danced in my eyes. I groaned in pain. The last thing I remember was Medusa saying: "Wisest Athena child, eh? I don't see it."

And everything went black.
