I still felt uncertain with Percy's plan. I felt as if there was something he was hiding, but he is just a seaweed brain, he's way too dumb to have some secret plan.

Our supposed 'dinner time' came around, and a dracaena slithered out from the darkness. Percy grabbed for the key from the bars to her waist. She bit down on his arm, and my boyfriend screamed in agony. My hand flew my mouth. I have heard stories about the snake women's bite being venomous, and causing extreme pain. But being the determined seaweed brain he is, Percy nevertheless reached his hand into her pocket. He screamed as he took an old key from her pocket in her armour, and Carter immediately slashed her to dust with his curved blade. Percy collapsed on the floor, breathing heavily. His entire left hand was smoldering from some kind of trap inside the Dracena's pocket. The bit was spewing our green puss. I kissed him fiercely, not caring that we were in a hurry. When I leaned back for air, I saw him smiling up at me, his lopsided trouble maker smile. For a moment, it didn't feel like we were in Tartarus. That is, until Sadie awkwardly pointed out there was a huge monster backup army already starting to gather.

Percy took a big breath, gave me a last kiss, and walked bravely outside the door, limping on both of his legs and his arms in casts made out of armor scraps we'd found in the cell. They didn't really react at all to that. So he shouted:"Yo, monsters! You look like you had a bad hair day, you're so ugly. No, wait. You are always ugly. It's in your genetic makeup." A hellhound who looked like the leader growled, and lunged at Percy. Thankfully, Percy was fast and dodged the strike. Then, he took off running. "Quick!" Said Sadie. I snapped out of my boyfriend-watching daze and stuck my arm out to unlock the door. It clicked open. "How do we use the key to open a door to earth?" I asked. "I don't know!" Said Carter. "Well, are we gonna just get the key for nothing?" He put his hand on the key, also. Now all three of us hand a finger on the key. Suddenly, it glowed and I felt a burn. "Ouch!" I dropped it. So did the Kane siblings. The key, which was now on the floor, glowed a faint light, which got brighter and brighter. Suddenly, there was a flash of light even more bright then the god's true forms. We covered our eyes and turned away.












Should I end it here? Nah, I ain't that evil.

When I could see again, a square of light was directly above us. It was Central Park! The trees were waving in the wind and people were talking. I felt an ache in my heart. "Look! There's a ladder!" Carter pointed to a beat up looking ladder leaning on one wall of our prison. Together, we moved it to our place beneath the escape. "Wait! Percy!" Sadie screamed. I cursed myself in Greek. How could I have forgotten my boyfriend!

I ran as fast as I can as I saw Central Park in a square. Sadie and Annabeth were waving frantically at me as I raced towards them. The monsters were catching up, though, and my injuries felt worse than ever. A hellhound had clawed at my chest, and I had three claw marks on my chest. Carter was already in the mortal world. I could hear him whooping and then a hand stretching down to grab at Sadie's. She went up, too. Now only Annabeth still lingered. "C'mon, seaweed brain! You aren't getting away that easily!"But  I knew, with certainty, that I was doomed. As I reached the bottom of the ladder., the monsters crowded beneath me. I was dead. But I can still save Annabeth. With a yell, I jumped off the ladder but used my strength to push Annabeth up. Her eyes widened, and screamed:" NO!" But I was already in too deep, literally, in monsters. I pulled a bomb from my pocket and whispered "Nightlock. Nightlock. Nightlock" and the last thing I heard was a "BOOM!" And Annabeth's scream.

How was the ending! And whoever knew what I did there please comment below!
