The Untold Truth

Chapter 16- Battle

Percy POV-
Thank gods for the older wizards there. They reacted quick enough for the students to get ready. I whistled and two very different groups of Centaurs burst from the trees. The ones that live there and the Greek ones that go by the Party Ponies. The Party Ponies were holding weapons such as paint guns and volley balls, while the other group had spears and bow and arrows. I sent a shock to the water and the mermaids started to gather at the edge of the water, spears and tridents at the ready. When the first monster stepped out of the forest the battle begun. It was quickly struck down but monsters and Death Eaters alike burst from the woods. I saw my old friend the Minotaur and threw a nearby abandoned dagger straight at his face. Right before he turned to dust he looked at me with hatred, I just smiled at him as I stabbed the Death Eater trying to sneak up on me. I ran to the first person on our side that was in trouble. I helped everyone I could until I heard the voice that now filled my nightmares. "Percy, honey I'm home!" she sang loudly. I instantly turned to her. She held her  Drakon bone sword at her side. It was covered in the blood of probably a few wizards. Most of the monsters had been killed or were being killed. Annabeth looked around her at the destruction and laughed. "My lord will be very pleased."
"Why are you doing this?"
"WHY? Because the gods don't deserve to rule anymore. They took everything from us Percy. Betrayed us at every turn. It was my mothers quest that ended with us falling into Tartarus. Can't you see they're evil? This is just the beginning. After me and my lord destroy the wizards we are going to destroy the gods to. Join us Percy, see the light and join me."
"I will never fight with you or for you again Annabeth. You are no longer who you were. You're not my Annabeth. I don't know you," with those words my sword crashed against hers. We twirled and slashed, diced and stabbed. I tried changed my fighting patterns so she could tell what I would do but she figured it out. We just knew each other so well. At some point she made a mistake one she shouldn't have made. I locked our swords and flipped hers out of her hands. I looked her in the eyes as she lay below me, "You were supposed to be the smart one," with that I plunged my sword into her heart. The Death Eaters left looked around nervously until a last person stepped out of the woods. He looked about 18. He had dark hair and a calculating look to his eyes. The Death Eaters worshiped him with they're eyes.
Harry looked shocked, "Tom Riddle?" he questioned under his breath.
Nico shivered once he stepped close enough. "Your supposed to be dead."
"Of course but I met some very pleasant people in the underworld, Nico, so I didn't stay dead long. Your great uncle says high and thanks for leaving him in Tartarus where he can never see the stars."
"Bob," I and Nico said together under our breath.
