I searched for hours with Thalia and Alice, all over Forks. He wasn't there. Finally, I pulled out my phone. Luckily, he picked up.

"Hello?"

"Percy!"

"Oh." He said flatly.

"Where are you?"

"I'm a monster. I don't deserve another life."

"Percy, where are you?"

"I'm out of your life. Don't let me be in the way of your happiness anymore."

"Perseus Jackson Cullen! Don't go!" I pleaded.

"I'm heading to the airport. Go and try to stop me; By the time you get there I'll be on a plane to Italy."

"Italy?"

"Have Alice tell you."

"Percy, don't go."

"I don't deserve life." He said sadly, and hung up.

I had hunted again and had green contacts on. They weren't my old green, but they'd have to do. I could charm my way out if the guards didn't accept my passport once I ran over the Italian border. I wasn't flying... son of Poseidon's few restrictions...

My phone rang. The number was restricted with Greek letters and numbers. Hm...

"Hello?" I asked, unsure of who there was.

"Percy!" Annabeth, surely. I'd have to throw her off... the airport! She'd never realize the trick.

"Oh." I said flatly.

"Where are you?"

"I'm a monster. I don't deserve another life." I said angrily.

"Percy, where are you?"

"I'm out of your life. Don't let me be in the way of your happiness anymore."

"Perseus Jackson Cullen! Don't go!" Annabeth pleaded.

"I'm heading to the airport. Go and try to stop me; By the time you get there I'll be on a plane to Italy." She'd never make it in time.

"Italy?"

"Have Alice tell you." I added in.

"Percy, don't go."

"I don't deserve life." I muttered and hung up.

I was already sprinting to the car before he hung up.

"What's happening?" Alice asked,

"He's going to the Italy."

"No!"

"What's in Italy?"

"They're the Volturi. You know, the evil monarchs we discussed earlier. He's going for a death wish. They'll never kill him though, he's too valuable. His powers are too good to let escape their bony little grasps. They'll snap him up to join their guard before he even gets an answer."

A death wish?

Was my friend's idiocy against Percy too much? I wouldn't think... why? I can't let him die, now. I lived a year thinking he was gone, and he's just come back.

We were already halfway to the airport when I realized something.

"He can't fly! Children of Hades' and Poseidon's domain would be zapped before they left the ground! Yes! We've got a chance!"

A small light of hope entered my heart as we pulled into the parking lot.

This is a bit of a filler chapter. Real update coming soon!
