Piper’s pov.

It is lunch and I haven’t seen Percy since this morning. He even missed lunch, which was very odd of him. I got up after lunch and decided to look for Percy. I have been doing a lot of searching for people lately, I thought to myself. I walked to the dock at Canoe Lake. Percy is probably catching up with Annabeth by now.

When I reached the dock, neither Percy nor Annabeth was there. Where could they be?

I turned around to see Chiron’s worried face.

 “Oh my gods, Chiron are you okay?”

“I haven’t seen Percy nor Annabeth ever since this morning. Percy ran into the woods where Thalia’s tree isn’t as strong! What if he was attacked?”

“Percy’s strong don’t worry.”

 I started to walk away when I noticed something walking like zombie to the beach. I went a little closer to get a better look, and there he was, Percy Jackson himself.

He looked like he had been hit a dozen times with a car. He didn’t have any injuries but he acted like he had broken everything in his body. He started to crumble to the ground and I caught him right before he hit the ground.

Just then Jason and Leo ran over to help me. We carried Percy to a nearby bench. Leo then said,

 “So this is Percy Jackson?” He gave Jason a doubtful look.

“Yes, but I don’t know what’s wrong with him?” Then Percy mumbled out “Annabeth….gash… monster…green…eyes…”He could barely speak. Then he just passed out. We got Percy to the infirmary. They said that he would be fine. He was just passed out with exhaustion.

Percy’s pov.

(Earlier that day)

Someone woke me up from my nap. It took a couple of seconds for me to realize where I was. I was on the bench out side the infirmary. It was a man that woke me up. Probably a doctor since he had a nametag that read Doctor Paul. He shook me once more to get me out of my trance. The he said,

 “I need to talk to you about Annabeth.”

“Oh my gods, is she alright?”

“Well…”

“WHAT?”

 “Well she…kind of…”

“She kind of WHAT? WHAT?” The doctor looked at me with confusion. He the said, “That gash on her cheek was from a rare type of hellhound that has poison in its claws.”

“OH MY GODS!!!!” With that I ran into the infirmary. I remember which room Annabeth was in. Room number 5. I ran to room number 5 and barged into the room without nocking. There, Annabeth was, lying on the infirmary bed. The gash on her cheek now looked green. Probably the poison. Two doctors stood with shocked faces beside her bed.

 “WHAT IN HADES! IS SHE OKAY?”  I noticed how loud I was, and immediately said,  “Will she be alright?” in a quieter voice. Then the female doctor nodded.

 “Annabeth will heal, but she might have some memory loss, but we are not sure. It depends how much the poison has spread. She will eventually regain her memory if she does have some memory loss.”

“I just stared at Annabeth in shock. “When will she wake up?”

 “We were just about to wake her up now Mr. Jackson.”

Mr. Jackson? How did she know my name? Then again, I have been in the infirmary a lot. They gently shook her shoulder and her eyes slowly opened.

But instead of those beautiful grey eyes they were green, like the gash!

“Oh my gods!” The Poison got into her eyes! The other doctor said.

“We need to get doctor Paul now!! She might go blind if she stays like this any longer!!!”

I couldn’t see her like this. I pulled myself out of the room. I couldn’t breath. I might loose her! Not again. Not again.

I felt like a zombie. I started to go to the only place that could possible calm me down. The lake.

(Later that day)

 I woke up to someone shaking my shoulder. It was a nurse.

“Percy, how do you feel?”

“Um, ok I guess.” I didn’t feel ok, I felt a heavy pounding where my heart was. My heart hurt. Almost like it was broken. Then I remembered what happened.

After seeing Annabeth, I saw Piper, Jason, and some other kid. I must have passed out. I sat up and asked the nurse what time it was.

“It’s 6:00”

6:00? Last time I remember it was 12 in the after noon, after I saw Annabeth. I’ve been passed out for 8 hours?

 Later I left the infirmary. Then the kid that was helping Jason and Piper carry me, showed up beside me.

“Hey! I’m Leo. How do you feel? Its dinner. Come on!” I followed him in silence. When I reached me table I just stared at my food. I needed to see Annabeth.

The nurse said that I could come back later tonight to see her.

Annabeth’s pov.

I woke up. I saw white curtains and a bright light. When I finally adjusted to my surroundings I looked around the room a little more.

 It was nighttime. I was definitely in the infirmary. All I remember was that I was in the woods on Wednesday morning, crying because Percy doesn’t remember me. Then a hellhound attacked me and scratched me.  I stabbed it and I denigrated into gold dust. Then I blacked out. Someone must have found me and brought me to the infirmary.

 Just then a doctor walked in. His nametag read Doctor Paul. He helped me sit up slowly.

 “What happened to me?”

“You were scratched my a rare, poisonous, hell hound. The poison spread to your head and your eyes. We were able to cure the poison from your eyes, but we are not sure if it all left your brain. I must ask you a few questions.”

 “Okay”

After he asked me how old I was, when my birthday was and other questions like that, he came to the conclusion that I had no memory loss.  Then I asked,

“Who brought me here?”

“Percy Jackson did.”

“What?” he probably found me in the woods. “What day is it?”

“It is Thursday” Thursday? Last time I remember it was Wednesday.

“What time is it?”

“It’s 8:30”

Just then a nurse walked in and said that I have a visitor.  Doctor Paul got up and told that I was ready for visitors. Who would be visiting me? It’s probably Piper.

Then Percy walked in.

“Percy what are you doing here? Um... I mean, Hi, I’m Annabeth.”

Percy just looked at me with sorrow and worry in his eyes.  He walked over to my bedside and hugged me. Then he cupped my face without touching the gash and kissed me!

“Do you remember me?”

“Of course I do Wise Girl!” with that he kissed me again.
