Last time on: Heroes of the Thirteen Colonies.

I was too busy staring at this boy to notice the other people fan out around him. He looked at his crew of ten, then back at mine. I had 500 men in my crew. He looked at his crew again, smirking slightly and when he turned back around, that is when it all went to Hades.

~Annabeth~

The boy and his crew charged at incredible speeds. Half of my crew was dead within the first minute of battle and I had hid under one of the dead bodies to watch the patriot's fighting style since nobody had noticed me yet. Normally I would be up there fighting as well, but these patriots were so fast, I was in shock.

The green eyed boy was fast and reckless. He was working easily with another boy in taking down the men. The other boy was the green eyed boy's height, had blue eyes like the sky, and shorter blonde hair. It seemed to me that the people near the blue eyed boy were falling right into his sword.

They continued fighting for a few more minutes, but there really was not a fight since the patriots were so good. Soon enough it was just my Uncle Frederick left (and well me of course). He was fighting with a girl who was probably my height, maybe taller. She had blue eyes like the blonde haired boy and black hair like the green eyed boy. She was incredibly fast and you could tell she practiced. Soon enough my Uncle's sword fell to the ground with a loud clank.

A different blonde haired boy, with a scar running down his face, grabbed my Uncle and pushed him against the door to the Captain's cabin. There was a moment of silence but from where I was hiding, my Uncle looked very nervous. His eyes were searching the dead bodies till they found mine. I winked and he winked back then continued looking around. The patriots were looking at each other with grins and smirks. One of the patriots, a girl with brown choppy hair with a feather and eyes, I could not tell what color they were, was talking to the Latino boy. I could not exactly tell what she said but I did hear "That...too...easy...what...think?". The boy nodded and they started looking around the dead bodies while the blonde boy asked my Uncle questions. I was too focused on the girl and boy getting closer to me to notice that the voices of my Uncle and the boy were rising.

"I do not know what you're talking about!" My Uncle was either trying to buy time for me, or really had no idea what the boy was talking about. His face was very panicked and I knew he was nervous.

"Don't lie to me! We know she is here! Now tell me where or we'll kill you!" The blonde boy said pushing my Uncle into the wall with incredible force, I saw blood on the wall. I winced for my Uncle and lightly gasped, then realized my mistake.

"Hey Leo did you hear that?" The girl asked the boy, Leo. He nodded a smile growing on his face and they headed in my direction their eyes searching. I stopped breathing and collected myself. If I was going to fight, now would be the time to do so. I looked at the clump surrounding my Uncle. The blonde boy holding my Uncle had no one near him. Their mistake.

I quietly and swiftly stood up, the gasps of Leo and the girl coming from behind but I ignored them, running at the blonde boy. I was light on my feet and fast, nobody even had time to react to the gasps before it was too late. I lunged at the blonde boy stabbing him in the heart.

There were collective gasps and someone, a girl, screamed "Luke!". I quickly pulled my knife out of this Luke. Blood splattered the ground and my dress. His mouth formed an "O" shape and he slumped to his knees. We locked eyes, his were understanding, as if he knew this was coming. I turned around ready to continue my fight, only to find a sword level with my throat. That NEVER happens...ever.

It was the green eyed boy. He did not look mad, just surprised. He stared at my face, our eyes meeting for the first time and his eyes widened. I squinted my eyes then swiftly shifted my arm and connected my knife with the boys sword. He had not been ready for that but he recovered quickly. My knife was already aimed for his stomach when something pierced my right thigh.

I fell to the ground dropping my knife and hissing in pain. "Seriously?" I muttered to myself. There was blood staining my dress and pooling slightly on the wooden deck. I looked up anger coursing through me. "NO!" My Uncle cried, then he was shushed when the other blue eyed boy punched him and held him to the wall like Luke did before.

The girl with black hair had her bow held out like she had just shot something. Well that something had been me. I should have seen this coming. The green eyed boy I had seen fighting with before kneeled down next to me and examined my leg. He made a move to touch me and I smacked his face. He look annoyed and amused. His mouth was in a scowl but his eyes were bright.

"Seriously Thalia? Was that necessary?" He seemed rather ticked off but when he spoke he had a sort of laugh to it. His voice was smooth and low. Damn. Everyone else looked as confused as I felt but I never let my feelings show. I was blank faced, but really pissed. I also was hurting really bad in my right thigh. Blood was staining my dress, pooling on the deck and my leg was starting to ache. I wanted to cry out, but I did not want attention on me, so I stayed quiet.

"Uh yeah." Thalia replied, putting her hands on her hips. Sarcasm was oozing through her voice "She killed Luke. I thought somebody had to do something." She replied glaring daggers at not only me, but the boy too. Well this is awkward I thought searching the ground for my knife. The pair continued bickering and I finally spotted my knife. It was about four feet left of me, behind Leo. I looked up to see if all the focus was off me before turning back for it.

I was about to lunge for it when the pair stopped fighting and all eyes were on me. I did not realize this until after I had been staring at my knife for too long. The Leo quickly looked behind himself, picked up my knife and put it on his belt. I turned to the green eyed boy who was eyeing me suspiciously. I was almost glad though, because my leg was starting to hurt really bad, and I was loosing a lot of blood.

"She's coming with us." He said to the group people. There were collected gasps and a few "Are you crazy?" Around the small group forcing me to roll my eyes and look for a new way to attack them. I mean I could not let them take me. They would end up to torturing me and probably kill me.

I was considering pulling out the arrow in my thigh and stabbing it into the green eyed boy next to me. However that would probably hurt more than help. My thoughts were cut short when someone grabbed my arms. It was the blonde boy and Leo. I grunted as my leg moved. I tried elbowing the boys but they had my arms secure and I could not move. The black haired girl continued arguing, "But Percy, she killed Luke! You know what I said before we got on this boat right?" The girl thundered giving me a deathly glare. She glares a lot. The boy, Percy, had moved and was now holding my Uncle to the wall.

"I know she killed Luke, Thalia. But her eyes..." He sounded exasperated, and stopped to look at me again before continuing his sentence. "She's important to winning the war Thalia. The prophecy said we'd find a girl on a boat who had grey eyes. It said to take her and she's important to finishing this war once and for all Thalia, I know it. I'm not passing up this chance. Besides Luke gave me orders too and I intend on following threw with them." The Thalia girl huffed and rolled her eyes, but did not continue to argue. "Now that it's settled, Jason, can you and Leo escort the girl to the infirmary? Have Will fix her leg. Then I want to rest of us to search this boat and take all valuables and bring them to our ship and put them in the Hold. I will finish off the Captain. Go." The green eyes boy finished.

My head perked up at the mention of my Uncle. I looked in his direction, my eyes pleading for help. But none came because soon enough the green eyed boy thrusted his sword into my Uncle. My last living relative. My only family.

I saw my Uncle cough up blood and fall on the ground, grunting. "No!" I screamed desperately trying to wiggle out of Leo and Jason's grasp, but I was too weak. My Uncle looked up at me, tears in his eyes. He mumbled something, but I could not tell what it was. He closed his eyes and accepting his defeat.

"No no no no no" I just kept repeating the word. My body began to shake and my legs gave out. Jason and Leo dropped me on the deck of their ship. Probably from shock of my first words being said out loud, and my shaking, and my legs giving out on me.

When they dropped me I landed on my bad leg and gasped. The edged of my vision went blurry and my hearing began to go fuzzy. I curled myself into a ball and when Leo came near me I tried to put up a fight but I was too weak. Leo rushed to what I believe was the infirmary to get Will. Jason put one arm under my legs and the other behind my back and ran in the direction of Leo's voice.

It got louder and louder and then I was on a cot. There was a lot of rustling and yelling. My breaths were shallow and my vision kept going in and out. I was still muttering the word no, I could not stop. I opened my eyes but I could not see much because of my tears. The last thing I remember before passing out where the sea green eyes staring at me.
