Annabeth's P.O.V.

"Annabeth, you get all of the campers out of here since they can die and I'll hold off the Titans and Giants with the gods." Percy stared into my eyes with a seriousness that I've only seen on the battlefield. There was no time to argue, and our priority was to save our friends so I listened to him. My mind made up, I ran behind him ready to convince everyone to escape.

As we made our way towards the action, I was relieved to see that no one had died. Everyone was still fighting. New found hope surged through me. There was a chance that Percy and I could save everyone without any losses. Determined to make sure this happened, my speed increased behind Percy.

"Kill him. Kill him now." Destruction's voice filled my head along with a dark feeling that consumed me. Powerless to do anything, I watched as my body pulled out my knife with an evil grin. Using all of the willpower that I could muster, I made an attempt to stop myself from doing what I knew was about to happen.

My body took a step towards Percy and shoved my knife straight in his heart. I felt as if the blade was put through my heart as Percy stopped running and fell to the ground. He had a shocked look on his face right before his eyes closed for good.

As soon as the life left him, the dark feeling left me and I was in control of myself. I fell to the ground crying and screaming the name of the hero that stole my heart and took it with him when he died.

One thought suddenly crossed my mind. "I killed Percy." I felt like I was dying as I clutched his body begging for him to come back. My voice sounded like it was broken as I sobbed on.

I knew there was a war going on, but all that mattered was the dark deed that I had just committed. Unending waves of emotional pain coursed through my entire body. Knowing that I wouldn't be able to live with what I did, I looked at the knife sticking out of Per-....... his back. I couldn't even think of his name at the moment.

"I'll see you soon." My voice still sounded horrible, being laced with grief. Right when I was about to take the knife, a blinding white light shot down from the sky. It hit his body and blew me directly back until my momentum was stopped by landing on a camper. I didn't really care who the camper was as I looked towards the spot that everyone else stopped fighting to look at.

"Percy!" His body was gone. All that was left was a crater. What unsettled me, however, was that I suddenly felt very calm. That light seemed to leave a strong feeling of peace that even affected the Titans and Giants. I was grateful for this feeling as it allowed me  to calm down. I still felt the pain through my body but it was able to be ignored for now. Was I really about to kill myself. Ashamed of myself, I thought about how disappointed Percy would've been of me. Not only did I let myself be overcome by those evil thoughts of Destruction's, I would've killed myself to escape the pain of what I had done.

That light saved me from myself. Something with such a peaceful aura couldn't have been anything bad. It kind of felt like something even older than Gaea and Tartarus. I smiled at the thought of Percy being such a great hero that his body was taken by this good and powerful force.

I was so lost in thought, it slipped my mind that there was a war that was supposed to be going on behind me. I turned around to see everyone just standing still, affected by the peaceful feeling. Destruction's voice suddenly thundered across the woods.

"Retreat immediately!" He sounded annoyed/angry. Nonetheless, all of the Titans and Giants disappeared into the shadows at once. I turned to all of the relieved campers and gods.

"Percy just died and his body was taken by that light. I'm going to the Underworld now. There's something that I have to do." Without waiting for a response I turned and left the camp. A single tear slowly fell down my face as I kept on walking.

I will see you soon, Percy.
