Annabeth's POV

Where is that god dam seaweed brain? He is late for our date after school. School ends at 3:00 and yet it's 5:00 and he's not here. He is so lucky to be able to go to school, while I stay home alone boyfriendless :( I am at Sally's house and she is worried as much as I am.
"Ring, ring, ring"
The phone started ringing, Sally answered it and soon her face turned to a smile. She continued talking then put the phone down.
"Who is it?" I asked questionably.
"It's Grover, he said he got the empathy link to work."
As soon as she said that I ran out side to my car (after the war we got our licenses) and I drove to camp.
You may be thinking, the great Annabeth Chase can handle a little thing like this but after Tartarus her leg has not healed yet. As I enter the camp I immediate call a quest and called the strongest demigods to join me.
"No, no, no!"
I turned around and saw Chiron there.
"You can't take the strongest demigods alive to rescue Percy, even though he is my pupil, if there is a attack who will lead to defend them, plus what if we can't find him."
"Well you can defend them, I mean your a giant horse-man you can take on anything" said Leo.
"Don't be rude." Piper whispered.
Then I came to an agreement, I will have 3 hours to search for Percy and if by then I'll go home and try another strategy. Chiron seemed okay with this and agreed. I took Jason, Piper, Leo, Nico (Shadow Traveled to Camp), Calypso (Off Ogynia), Will, Grover, Clarisse (who seemed excited to have a quest), and lastly Rachel (I don't know why)
"Do we need a prophecy?" Jason asked.
"No, since it is just a saving thing, no prophecies are needed" Chiron said.
As soon as he said that, I got ready and boarded the Argo II. We set sail after Grover told us which direct to head.
(2 hours later)
It's been forever and we can't find a precise location when...
"Guys I think Festus found a location"
Sure enough we are moving in a different direction and soon the Argo II came to a stop.
"Percy is close by I can feel it." Grover said excitedly.
The went down to the ground and saw nothing.
"Maybe Festus was wrong?" Nico said.
"No way! Festus would never be wrong!" Leo said angrily.
"Shut up guys!!! We are trying to f*cking find someone, not having an argument!!" said Clarisse frustrated.
"Shh, don't say bad words in front of the reader." Piper complained softly.
"What reader?"
"Oh, nothing...."
"Guys I think there is noise coming from the ground" Rachel said.
"I heard it too maybe they are underground?!" I said excitedly.
Soon we started digging and by digging I mean having Nico summon skeletons to do the work. When the skeletons found a hole, We jumped in with everyone behind. What I saw frightened me, there were hundreds of monsters looking at us. The only time there was this many was for the Battle of Manhattan (Titan War), and the final fight with Gaea. Tartarus was way worse than this of course, but still this is tricky.
"Uh..... Hi?" Leo said nervously.
"RAWR!!!!!!!!"
The screamed and charged at us. I got my Drakon Bone sword out and started slicing the monsters. Jason used his gladius from Hera, A.K.A the cow goddess and blasted lightning from his hands. Piper is charmspeaking them, and the cutting them with Katoptris. Leo hit them with fireballs and then swung his hammer. Calypso shot mystical magic from her hands and Grover played his panpipes. Nico summoned skeletons and attacked with his Stygian Iron sword. Will shot arrows with a bow he got from his father. Clarisse attacked with her electrical spear and Rachel hit them with a comb, I mean a celestial bronze comb. After the Titan war she asked to make a comb that is a weapon too. Since I knew we were going to need a plan, I started giving one.
"Clarisse attack the middle and force the monsters to the side of the place. (left/right)"
"Jason fly above and shoot lightning at the stragglers that are still in the middle."
"Same thing with you Will."
"Piper go left and charmspeak the monsters."
"Grover go to the right and make the enemies fall asleep."
"Calypso place a shield enchantment to block the monsters."
"Leo add fire to the enchantment and around it to strengthen the defenses."
"Nico summon skeletons to guard us."
As I yelled commands I saw that it worked. The monsters were either asleep, dazed, or struggling to come in. That was the good news, the bad news was it took most of everyone's energy.
"Don't worry guys follow me." I said.
We walked until we reached a doorway and I can't believe what I saw, Percy being tied up to a wall and getting spanked (by a whip okay, and not something else you perverts) It was none other than the Minotaur and Kelli, being surrounded an army of monsters including Queen Sess, Tammi, Dylan (Piper told me about him), a chimera, hydra, manticore, nemean lion, griffin and a drakon.
"PERCY!!!!!!!" I screamed which probably was a stupid idea.
He opened his eyes and smiled.
"Get them!!!" screamed the Minotaur.
The monsters charged and we attacked. Since there is smaller monsters it was easier but still a bit tough.   After a minute or so most of the monsters were dead except for the strong ones. Jason charged at Dylan and the griffin came after him but he was stopped by Wills arrows. Piper fought Queen Sess while Clarisse took on the drakon, like in the war. Calypso and Leo attacked the Hydra. Nico charged at the Chimera and the Nemean Lion, while Rachel ran around hitting them with her comb. Grover tried to trap the manticore but had a hard time trying. I fought Tammi and Kelli, while the Minotaur was keeping Percy tied up. Soon I destroyed Tammi and she turned to gold dust. I faced Kelli and kicked her back, then I charged at the Minotaur. I sliced and diced until I knocked his axe out. Then I ran to Percy and untied his ropes. Soon he was free and we kissed. His mouth tastes the same, salty, just how I like it.
"Um, sorry to interrupt this reunion but there are monsters here!" Leo screamed still lighting fire on the hydra, while Calypso is summoning spells everywhere. Then we went insane, Piper went and knocked Queen Sess out and is now helping Nico and Rachel fight the Chimera, since he temporary stunned the Nemean Lion. Jason and Will managed to weaken the Griffin and tired Dylan out a bit but they are still fighting. Clarisse is still fighting the Drakon and Grover trapped the manticore in vines and is helped us take out Kelli and the Minotaur. I continued to fight Kelli with the help of Grover while Percy took on the Minotaur. In a matter of seconds Kelli stepped on a trap Grover set up and I slashed her with my sword.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
She had a slash mark on her chest and before I could get the final strike, she drake a potion and disappeared. Then more noise came and I saw Percy stab the Minotaur, and then the Minotaur threw his axe on the ground and disappeared. We took a moment of relief and then went to help the others. Grover helped Nico, Rachel and Piper to defeat the Chimera and the Nemean Lion, who got up. I then ran to help Jason and Will until I heard a noise. I turned to see a lion-like shape, the manticore. I covered me eyes waiting for the blow until I feel a push. I am at the ground and saw the Manticore confused. If it didn't hit me then who? I got my answer when I saw a raven haired boy at the ground.
"PERCY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Question of the Chapter: Who are the two heroes of the first prophecy?
Each question will get a week to ten days to be answered before it is closed, whether I have a winner or not. Also I changed a rule Big Three kids are allowed, but still not gods or children of maidens, which include Hestia and Artemis (though you can be a hunter) and Athena is allowed because she has brain children.
