Sorry i haven't written for like aggggggeeeeeesss!
Percy's POV:
I try and push her out of my mind, push away the grief and focus on now. But its hard, seeing Nico and Odessa reminds me, makes me want those moments back. Starring into her grey eyes. I will break if I remember, I will snap into a million tiny pieces scattered far, far apart. Never to be super glued back together. My heart is cracking like glass. I see everything from somebody else's eye, mine are too clouded with feelings of grief. Even the sound of my footsteps feel like they are in the distance, my ears are listening out for the her voice. If she was here, she would tell me to get over it and concentrate on the nearing battle. One step at a time inching closer to what I hope might be my death. Anything to save myself from this painful, remorse feeling. I am walking in somebody else's dream, seeing life trudging slowly on when it has come to a full black stop. I will do anything for a few golden moments, a couple of words, a single kiss. I am being dragged through rock, backwards. My heart has been stabbed with a million knives from too many directions.
Luke's POV:
My knees hit the ice cold floor, sending a shockwave of numb pain bouncing up my legs, then spine. "My lord..."
"Don't bother trying to explain, it is just another level to my plan," his words twisted and broken, like he was on the edge of pain or the brink of excitement. He clicked his long pale fingers, a image hung in the air, not supported by anything. Two hand in hand, the other a few steps behind. "He," a finger pointed towards Percy, "Will be their down fall, he will do anything for love, something we can use." Chaos takes something from his pocket and blows it into the image.
Percy's POV:
I turn back, blink, then my heart leaps, I must be seeing things, blink again, no change. The smoke swirls, falling into blond curls, twirled into grey pupils supported by a athletic by natural face, her hand held out for me to take. Without think I run to her. I am floating on the highest cloud. She doesn't seem like the Annabeth I know but she must have been through a lot so I don't give a second thought. I reach out an hold her hand, my eyes look back, Nico and Odessa haven't noticed I am gone.
Then my world spins in front of my eyes, everything is slanted or swirled. I cannot see her no matter how much I try. Then I find myself slumping forwards. I hit the floor. My vision turns black.
