Percy Jackson: Noo this is not funny!

Leo Valdez: Whats wrong my man? 

Percy Jackson: Don't even ask Leo. Massive headaches and nausea combined perfectly with severe vomiting

Leo Valdez: Woah! You should go see a doctor or something. This sounds serious!

Percy Jackson: Noooooo!!!!! They hook me up with weird wires and poke needles through my skin and god knows what else

Leo Valdez: Ok.... but those weird wires and needles in your skin can save your life, dude

Percy Jackson: I know but...

Annabeth Chase: I agree with Leo

Annabeth Chase: I thought I would never say that...

Leo Valdez: Dude, go to the doctor. The might not actually put weird wires or poke needles....what if they just give you medicine

Percy Jackson: Fine, fine

Percy P.O.V:

I exit Camp Half-Blood and head towards my car parked on the street. I was struggling to keep my head up. Sitting in my car, I put my key in the ignition and start the car. The hospital is close by and I get there quickly. The edges of my vision are black by the time I enter the lobby. The receptionist sees me and immediately calls for a stretcher. The doctors come rushing in right as I hit the floor. 

When I open my eyes I am hooked  up to weird machines and see needles poking into my skin. 

This is what I was afraid of.

The machines are beeping monotonously. A doctor comes in and examines one of the machines. He makes some notes on his clipboard and turns toward me. 

"Mr. Jackson you have an unbelievably high blood pressure and your temperature is reaching 107. We are trying whatever we can to lower your temperature before looking at anything else. You might have t stay in the hospital for a while." 

Great. Just what I wanted.   

I think about everyone at Camp Half-Blood before drifting off to sleep. 

The next morning my temperature is still hovering at 107. The doctors are starting to worry because technically my temperature should have lowered at least a couple degrees by now. My blood pressure is still high. The machine to my right is showing that my heart is slowing down. 

All signs that I am going to die.

Leo Valdez: Just hope for the best and he'll be fine

Annabeth Chase: How can I not worry when I love him

Thaalia Grace: Don't think about it too much 

Annabeth Chase: Ok, I am going to visit him in the hospital. Anyone want to come? 

Leo Valdez: I think you should go alone because they might let you if you are really close to him

Annabeth P.O.V: 

I rushed my car to the hospital and ran through the doors to the lobby. The receptionist looked up and smiled. 

"Hello. How may I help you?" 

"I want to see Percy Jackson."

"Are you a relative of Percy?" 

I hesitated before saying,"Yes, I am his sister." 

She pointed towards the elevator and said, "You may go in. He is on the 8th floor in room 809." 

I rushed towards the elevator and pushed the up button. The elevator opened with a ding and I stepped in and pushed the button that read 8. It started going up and the doors opened at the 8th floor. I found room 809 at pushed the door open.

Percy P.O.V: 

I heard the door open and it took some effort to lift me head up. 

It was Annabeth. 

She ran in and set beside my bed holding my hands. 

"Oh, Percy what happened. She analyzed the machines and the tubes that were attached to my arm. She looked at the heart monitor and gasped. My heart had slowed down significantly and my breath was coming out in short gasps. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Annabeth P.O.V: 

I gasped as I saw the machine that monitored his heart. His heartbeats were slowing down. 

No. This could not be happening. I didn't realize it, but my face was wet with tears. Percy was smiling. How could he be smiling when he was dying? 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Percy P.O.V

It was getting harder to breath. Annabeth was squeezing my hands. Her face was covered in tears and they were pooling on my shirt. 

I glanced at the heart monitor and saw that my life was about to end. The line was almost straight. 

I was ready.

My final breath escaped my lips as I died, Annabeth still holding my hands. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So Percy died. What did you guys think of this chapter.
