Takes place in the fight against Gaia
"Dialogue"
'Thoughts'
(I'm pretty sure the Basilisk wasn't even there when they were fighting Gaia but for the sake of injury I'm gunna have it that way, also we're gunna pretend this particular Basilisk was given a blessing form who cares who to be really big)

Percy was tired, so very tired but he had to fight on, he had to protect his friends and he'd be damned if he was gun be killed by one of his Newest enemies 'ha dam' so there he was fighting the Basilisk and it was not going well.
Though they were on land now and not fighting with Kymopolia it was still hard to keep from the  large snake and this time it could breath fire witch wasn't good for the forest. There were a few close calls when it lunged and bared it's fangs nearly getting Percy's arm before he dodged and slashed at the beast stomach 'do snakes have technical stomachs?'......' FOCUS PERCY' anyway it was getting harder and harder to avoid the snake. Percy was already bleeding from a previous stab wound on his left side and it was soaking into his shirt. He had gashes up his arms and legs from previous monster fights and its not like he had the time to get to water, and the smoke form the Basilisk's fire was beginning to sting his lungs. And as much pain as he was in he knew there were people dying on the battle field so he had to keep fighting. 'Speaking of which.' It hissed once more before pouncing at Percy breathing it's hot fire. He dodged but wasn't paying attention and its large tail swung at him and smacked him in the back sending him straight into a tree and hitting the back of his head on a sharp rock. By now Percy was sure he had multiple broken ribs and a possible concussion. He groaned and stood struggling to keep his balance with his new found headache. He looked up as he heard the large snake hiss and it lunged at him again, once more baring its fangs. With a growl Percy ran forward and slashed at the snake with all the force he had.  At its middle, it's back, and anywhere else he could get. Just like him the snake had it's fair share of injuries slashes all up and downs it's scaly body. With a well placed stab Percy believed he could beat it but his movements were getting slower and he realized his vision was getting fuzzy most likely from  his wound in the back of his head of witch he realized he now had a warm wetness to it. 'Great'
The Snake once more came at him this time from the side fangs very noticeable. Percy sidestepped to the left and the snake missed. Every movement Percy made had him hissing or wincing in pain but is adrenaline kept him fighting, he had to. The Basilisk dived for Percy but he slid underneath it and when he came up he stabbed his sword into the creatures stomach. The Basilisk let out a roar of pain and began to flail around as Percy ran to the side as to not get hit by its tail. Once he saw his chance he came up behind the large reptile and ran up its back towards the it's head. Percy let out a yell as he plunged his sword into the creatures skull. The Basilisk wailed throwing Percy off leaving the sword impaled in it's head as it slowly turned to dust.
Percy watched in satisfaction as he saw the creature dissolve from where he landed by a log. He stood, his wounded legs and new found dizziness making it difficult. Once more Percy took note of his blurry vision only now he realized he was also starting to feel nauseous just like he had back in the Atlantis. He looked down at his hands and realized with a shock how pale they were. They're were so pale they were almost.... Green! 'Oh no' he thought  as he looked past his hands and to his side were the basilisk had apparently grazed his side right side with its fangs. "Guess it didn't miss after all" he said aloud looking down at his already tattered camp shirt that was now sporting a new whole with the dark green venom seeping from his new wound. With this new found realization he began to notice the other affects of the venom seeping in. "Gotta get back to camp" he said to himself but he was to far from the infirmary and everyone else had their own battles to fight. He began to lean against a near by tree for support when he had a sudden dizzy spell. The pain in his side worsening
"Iris Message" he though aloud he winced at his own raspy and week sounding voice. Though he didn't want to burden anyone with his injuries or risk someone dying just to find him but he new that if he wanted to survive this he had no choice. He looked around for a minute before  he used his powers to make an Iris message in the sunlight (I don't know maybe he found a puddle)
"Oh Lady Iris please accept my offering" he said as he threw I'm a drachma he had handy" and show me-" suddenly there was a spasm of pain in his chest and Percy fell to his knees in the grass with a groan he tried to get up but his legs weee jelly and he could feel his eye lids growing heavy " gah- show me the mess hall of camp half-blood" (I don't know where they might have had the infirmary if anywhere but that the biggest part of camp I could think of) He watched painfully as the rainbow warped to show the mess hall full of injured campers and many of Apollo's campers tending to them if not treating their own injuries. But then something happened as Percy was about to alert them of his presence tough he wasn't even sure if he could speak the image began to flicker and change.
"What the-" but he didn't get to finish. From behind him there was a battle cry he looked over his shoulder just in time to see a Cyclopes running at him but Percy was to intoxicated with venom to even see straight not to mention he was currently bleeding out of his head and could barely speak and the fact that he was still on his knees in the wet grass didn't help his chances of defense. With a last attempt at protection his already injured body he twisted to face the Cyclops and covered his face with his arms as the Monster his him with its club. Percy let out a pained yelp as the club hit his injured side and he was thrown THROUGH the Iris message 'Wait What?' Was the only though he could manage before the pain and sickness overwhelmed him and everything went black.
