Shink! That was the sound of my sword, riptide, going though Ghea's heart. Everyone around me cheered. I didn't. I knelt down, laid my sword beside me and cried. And cried. And cried. Annabeth came and sat next to me, rubbing circles on my back. "Percy, are you okay?"
"No, Annabeth. I'm not."
"Why?"
"All of those people down there.." I pointed at Greece, "we just... let them die...." I started sobbing again. Annabeth looked me over warily and shouted to Leo, "Almost done with the ship?" "Yeah." He called back. Annabeth just nodded her head and tried to comfort me more.

"Land ho!" Shouted Leo, manning the Argo // back home. Let's just say that we had a rough landing. Mostly because we didn't have landing gear. Demigods gathered around us and cheered. Even some Romans were there. As we walked down to the ground, people put down a red carpet for us to walk on. I mean come on. We're not celebrities.

As I tossed and turned in my bed, I heard a noise coming from outside. I cautiously walked to the door, pulling out riptide. (A/N remember horsekabob! anyone? Ok.) I pulled the door open slowly. What I saw before me broke my heart. Annabeth, kissing that Apollo dude, Will. I screamed and slammed the door shut. Now I heard screaming on the outside. I opened the door again, but this time, things were different. I saw Ghea trashing the camp, looking for the seven. She found Frank first, then Hazel. Next she found Jason, then Piper, then Leo. Lastly she found Annabeth. I ran to her, trying to save her. "Go!" She yelled right before she got swollowed by the dirt. I broke down crying as the dirt slowly consumed me. "Annabeth!" I yelled before I woke up in a cold sweat.
