Annabeth's POV (EDITED)

I walked down a cave. Dark, gloomy, moist, wet. You're typical villain cave, where rotten things go to die. I know this cave. I've been here before.

"Daughter of Athena!" I heard a voice, creepy, scary. "Did you forget me? After all we've been trough?"

"Who are you?!" I yelled.

"You forgot me? You forgot your promise? Architect of Olympus??" The voice hissed.

"No... No... You're dead! You fell into Tartarus!" I yelled. I panicked. I turned around as a shadow zoomed behind me.

"But you did too, didn't you?" She said.

"No! No! This isn't real. Percy was with me. You're dead!" I screamed.

"No. Your precious petty, boyfriend died. I did not." The voice said.

"No! Percy is alive! I know he is!" I yelled.

"It's sweet how much you care about a lifeless body..." She said. Suddenly, spiders crawled out of the walls. Hundreds, thousands, all surrounding me. They came closer, and a few started jumping at me. I ran away.

"No! You're dead! And you'll stay dead!!" I screamed. I took out my dagger and jumped at Arachne. I was filled with rage, not fear. Rage, because she is the the reason that Percy and I fell into Tartarus. I stabbed her. That's it, she's dead, and she'll stay dead.

"I told you. Your boyfriend, is dead." She cackles. She disappeared, I looked down and very much to my horror, it was Percy.

"Annabeth!" He croaked out. My dagger. It was in Percy's heart.

"No! No no no! Percy! No!" I yelled.

"He's dead!" Arachne said.

"No!!" I screamed.

"Annabeth!" Percy yelled. "Annabeth!!" He yelled again.

I woke up with a start. Sweat covering every part of my body. My face was wet. Not with sweat, with tears. I looked up and Percy was there, alive and well.

"Percy!" I yelled, putting my hands around his neck, hugging him. "I was in Arachne's cave. She... Was... Alive." I sobbed.

"Hey... Shh..." He tried to calm me. He pulled away and wiped away my tears. "Nightmare?" He asked and I simply nodded.

"You wanna tell me what happened?" He asked.

"I was back at Arachne's cave. She was alive. She said that she never died. She was alive and that you're dead. Spiders was coming out from everywhere. I took my dagger and jumped at her. I stabbed her, but then she disappeared, and you. Y-y-you..." I broke down crying at Percy's shoulders.

"Hey. It's fine. It's fine. I'm fine, you're fine, we're fine, we're together..." He said. He pulled away and wiped away my tears.

"It was you. It was me." I sobbed. He hugged me again. "I killed you."

"It's called a nightmare for a reason..." He said.

"Percy... Nightmare or not, it's a dream... And a dream, for a demigod, means something...." I said.

"It's just somebody, messing with you, it doesn't have to mean anything..." He said.

"But dreams are somehow connected... And with the prophecy coming-" I stopped. "If you die, and it's because of me, I'll never forgive myself..."

"Annabeth.." He said. He tilt my chin and kissed me. "I survived the second Titan war. All seven of us survived the war with Gaea, even if they said at least one of us will die. After 2 prophecies, when will you learn that we write our own destiny."

"Okay." I sighed. "Okay." I mumbled.
"It's a good thing you stayed in my cabin huh?" He smirked and I nodded. He kissed my forehead and walked back to his bed.

"Goodnight wise girl..." He said as he went to his bed. I stayed up, sitting down on my bed. Percy laid down on his bed, before he realized I didn't move an inch. "You wanna stay with me in my bed?"

I smiled and walked to his bed. He put his arms around me... He kissed me one more time.

"Goodnight...." He said.

"Goodnight Percy..." I said as I drifted off to sleep. I won't lie, I can't stop thinking about the dream, but like Percy said, I wanna spend time with him and that's what I intend to do.
