When I woke up, my eyes were golden. I don't know how, but they were. And I'm glad.

Piper, Hazel, and Frank were on my team. Lee's team. You heard me: Magic's Daughter's name is Lee.

Anyway, my mission was to either kill or put the rest of the seven into a coma, or in other words I was to bring them on our side.

I was going to win this battle.

I raced toward Lee and waited for my instructions. I couldn't believe that I was actually taking orders from her.

"Annabeth! It's so nice to have you on our side," she said while pointing to Hazel, Frank, and Piper.

"It's good to be here," I replied.

"All of you need to capture one of the following people: Percy, Leo, or Jason. They all escaped," she informed.

I was sitting on the edge of my seat as I couldn't wait to pounce on my victims.

I pulled put a dagger from who knows where and sprang down the hallways, searching for pray. I came across Piper, always getting a head start, choking Percy to death.

Wait, Percy?

I came to conclusions:

• The magic dust got to my mind.

• I beat the magic dust, all because I didn't want to kill my friends again.

• Magic's Daughter has a plan to kill all of us, whether it's hand to hand or to do it herself.

• I need to fix this.

Once I got into the right state of mind, I quickly tackled Piper and told Percy to go. I couldn't lose him to the other side. I still needed to get the rest of them back, especially before they get to the only survivors.

Piper elbowed me in the stomach, but I stood my ground. She tried getting up, but I had pinned her to the ground.

"Piper, listen. Do you really want to kill Jason?" I tried convincing.

"Of course," was all she said.

"Don't you love him?" I asked.

"Yes, but I need to let him go."

"Don't let him go if you still have a chance. Save him," I instructed, trying to sooth/calm and convince.

"Lee would get really angry if any of us turned..."

"...including you!" she realized.

She pulled out a knife and stabbed me in my other shoulder. What is it with people and shoulders these days?

I shook my head in disgust as I once again panicked and dashed out of there.

I tried to follow Percy's lead, but I ended up in the middle of no where.
