The Cold Sea

Chapter 1

》》》》》》PERCY P.O.V《《《《《

One month today. I don't know how I even survived that long. Only for her. Only for her do I survive while she is dead. Not live. No, saying living would indicate joy, contentment, any emotion of any kind. All I feel is a hole where my heart use to be. For she was my heart. My joy. My life. I would have killed my self had it not been her finial wish for me to survive.

×××××××××× flashback ×××××××××

I cut down the hellhound currently charging at me by stabbing it in the throat.

I look around and all I see is death.

Piper has bloody claw marks on her chest from where she was killed by a hellhound. Because of this Jason got distracted and was killed by a cyclops that he was battling. He was lucky to die and be with the one he loves.

Frank and Hazel were fighting back to back when the monsters set Greek fire arrows upon them. Also lucky, getting to die with their beloved and spending eternity in Elysium together.

Leo simply got overwhelmed by all the monsters.

I didn't see how Thalia fell.

While Nico over exerted himself. He also got overwhelmed by monsters.

Annabeth. Annabeth death however, I saw it all.

I finished off that hellhound when I heard a scream split the battlefield. Sure there was screaming everywhere, it was not the scream itself, it was who it came from.

My eyes tracked the sound and fell upon Gaea holding Annabeth against her chest with a dagger to her throat. I saw a few drops of blood fall from the pressure.

The dagger itself was at an angle so it could easily and efficiently slide across her throat when wished. Sadly that's exactly what happened.

Gaea waited till she saw I was watching, then she killed my wise girl. My love. My best friend. My joy and happiness. My life. My Annabeth.

I ran to her and it was like I was in slow and fast motion at once.

I couldn't reach her I couldn't move fast enough. However reaching her happen in a blur.

Gaea pushed the now dying Annabeth off her and I slid unto my knees to catch her head in my lap.

I couldn't cry. I couldn't process that she was dying.

"D-don't kill y-yourself to b-e w-w-with me" , she managed to get out. Blood was flowing past her lips and she coffed spluttering it over the face and mine."L-l-lov- y-you ssea w-ee-eed brai..." , she faded off, drawing her last breath.

She was dead.

I closed her eyes as mine filled with rage. I turned to her murderer. Gaea. I gently layed Annabeth's head of the ground and got up. I made my way towards the primeral. All the fighting had stopped and all eyes turned on us. The monsters parted knowing I would kill them in less than a heart beat; I had that look in my eye. The look of rage, cruelty, overwhelming grief, determination, but most of all the killing instinct.

I didn't rush, no I wanted to savor her misery, her fear. And Gaea was afraid, I could see it in her eyes in her body language.

I was ten feet from her when I took all the blood from the monsters around me. I could tell that everyone was afraid. No ones ever thought to control the blood in anothers body. However when your in Tarterus it hets to you. Someone could be the sweetest person on earth never even thinking about killing. But Tarterus brings out the monster in all of us. That same sweetheart will sever you head from your body given enough time in the Pit. The monster's bodies turned to dust and I made their blood rush forward to Gaea and lift her off the ground.

I felt sick satisfaction seeing the monsters crumble into nothingness, and i couldn't bring myself to care.

I rose myself up to meet her level a few meters off the ground using the water vapor in the air.

I stabbed her in the throat with my sword. I twisted it causing her more pain. This is something I've never done before, take joy from a monster's death.

My eyes were ice cold blizzards while i wathed the life leave hers. Just pike how she watched mine when she saw myself die when she slid that blade across Annabeth's throat.

As soon as i released the monster blood around her it turned to dust.

I knew it was best they believed me dead. For inside I was, and knowing me now would only cause them more pain. More pain than even my death.

So I created an earthquake that even my father would not be able to achive in his strongest of rage. The earthquake itself made the mountain above me collapse.

I heard them all screaming at me to run, to calm down.

I turned and saw Zeus and Hades holding my father at bay. He was struggling like a mad man, trying to break free of their hold so he could save me.

But my uncles saw that I did not want to be saved. I wanted to die and be with Annabeth. It was proberbly the kindest thing they ever tried to do for me. However I couldn't die for it was her finial wish for me to survive.

The mountain collapsed on me.

What everyone else did not see was that I positioned myself to be in lined with a cave.(Athena blessed me before the battle so now I'm smart).

I then vapor traveled myself out of there and to my room at my mum's apartment.

Finally the tears fell and I sobbed. I cried toll my voice grow horse. I cried till my tears no longer fell. I cried till I felt nothing no longer.

Now here I am at their graves and mine. For that Percy was well and truly dead.

I knew they were their the six people watching me ever since I arrived. One in the sky. One in the trees. And four behind the bushes, one a god.

"I know your there, come out" I called.
