so this chapter has aa couple torture scenes, but i dont htink there that bad but if you have a light stomach skip the italic parts. Just a warning.

Annabeth pov

I don't know how long i've been in Tartarus but it's terrible. Each day he comes back in with a new way to torture me. Today its mental torture. I watched as he tortured Percy. "STOP" I yelled. Tartarus turned around and looked at me, slowly he began to walk over, still holding the knife he was using to cut percy. He crouched down in front of me, twirling the blood covered knife in his hands. He took the knife and stabbed me in the shoulder. I screamed as he pulled it back out. "Now be quiet" He said and walked back over to Percy. He began carving Percy's skin once more. "STOP IT!" I yelled through my tears. Tartarus once again turned towards me. "When will you learn to shut up, you stupid demigod." He said. He stabbed the knife into my other shoulder but not as far. He began to drag it down my arm, with me screaming the whole time. He pulled it back out when it was right over my elbow and I screamed again as tears poured down my face.

Tartarus grinned and left the room. I crawled over to Percy and leaned against him. He was passed out but he was alive. We were both bleeding heavily and eventually I passed out.

When I woke up my cuts were somehow healed but they had scarred over. I sat up and saw Percy was still asleep. As I sat against the wall, I shivered as I felt fingers lightly tracing the scars on my arms but no one was in the room. Then I faintly heard a voice whisper, "When will you wake up, wise girl. I need you"

Percy pov

Nearing the end of breakfast I heard Annabeth scream. No one else heard it though because Professor dumbledore set a spell so that if this happened i would be able to hear her. I shot up in my seat and ran out the doors.

I ran up to the demigod common room and saw the door to my bedroom open. I knew that Claire and Blake were here so that's not what I was worried about. I ran into the room and saw them both panicking. What really worried me was the blood that was soaking the sheets Annabeth was laying on. "Percy we don't know what's happening she just started screaming and then bleeding!" Claire yelled. "I know just go out to the common room and explain. The others will explain everything else." I answered. They both nodded and ran out, closing the door behind them. I ran over to my wardrobe and grabbed the bottle of nectar and poured a tiny bit into Annabeths mouth. Her cuts slowly began to heal but there was still blood everywhere. I controlled the water from the sink in our bathroom and any other clean water I could find in the room and placed it on the bed and Annabeth's body, just leaving her head uncovered. I moved it around a little bit before lifting it up. The once clear water was now a dark red with all the blood that had fallen out of her cuts. I set the water down in the tub and it went down the drain.

I walked over to Annabeth and studied her arms, lightly tracing my fingers up and down the scars. "When will you wake up, Wisegirl. I need you" I whispered to her. I bent down and kissed her forehead before going out to our common room. Everyone was sitting there and I could tell Hazel had just finished explaining to Draco, Hermione, who had shown up while I was in my room, and Luna. They all looked at me when I walked in and Leo asked, "How is she?" I sighed and ran a hand through my hair. "Still not waking up but I gave her some nectar and the bleeding stopped. She still has scars though and from those it looks like she was stabbed in one shoulder and on the other shoulder she was stabbed but then the knife was dragged down." I answered. "And how are you?" Nico asked. I looked at him and sighed again. "Im fine. We'll get through this, Annabeth will wake up, Thalia will come back and-" I was cut off though when i began to feel very dizzy. "Perce?" I heard Frank say. "Percy, what's wrong?" Hermione asked. Both people sounded very far away. "It's happening to Nico too" I heard someone say but I couldn't tell who. Finally I couldn't fight it anymore and I collapsed.
