Percy POV
I saw a green skull appear in the sky. One I had seen before, at the quidditch cup.
I look to Harry, who was lo.oking weak and miserable as a ring of people appeared in puffs of black smoke around Tartarus. One by one he rips the mask off every one of them, causing them to fall to their knees at his feet.
My head was throbbing, and I could see the edges of my vision started to become fuzzy. I wince, and try to stand up, but with no avail.
Tartarus notices, and lets out a laugh, directing his follower's attention to me.
"Looks like our little hero isn't in his usual heroic state, is he?" He says. He gestures to me. "Meet Perseus Jackson, my friends. The oh-so-famous cousin of the chosen one. Wants to save his long lost relative, isn't that nice?" The followers laugh. He points his wand at me. "CRUCIO!" I gasp as pain shoots through every inch of my body. I almost couldn't bear it. I writhe around, ignoring the laughter and obvious amusement
"Still Percy." I manage through the pain. I sigh in relief as he lowers his wand.
"Stubborn as always." He says. Then he walks towards Harry. "Do you know what saved Harry all those years ago?" He doesn't wait for an answer before continuing. "His dear, deceased mother provided the ultimate protection- old magic I could never touch. But no matter." He smiles. "I can now touch the great Harry Potter." He put his hand to Harry's forehead, and presses his hand against the lightning shaped scar. Harry screams out in pain.
"HARRY!" I yell, my voice cracking. Tartarus laughs in pure evil glee. He moves back, and waves his wand. The scythe holding Harry up disappeared, and he collapses to the ground.
"Stand up and fight, Harry Potter!" Tartarus says. "Don't be a coward!"
Harry groans, and reaches for his wand. He holds a hand over his stomach.
Tartarus smirks. He points his wand at Harry, and says the same spell as before. Harry writhes around on the ground, in obvious pain. I force myself up, ignoring the pain spiraling through my body. I summon all the power I can muster, and I feel the ground start to shake. Tartarus is caught by surprise, and stumbles. He loses his concentration, and Harry sighs as he stands up.
The monster of the pit glares at me dangerously, a snarl carved on his face. Harry walks up to him, wand in hand.
"Expelliarmus!" he shouts. At the same time, Tartarus screams, "AVADA KEDAVRA!" The two streams of light collide. Red from Harry, and Green from the pit. Both of their faces were scrunched in effort, and sweat was beading on Harry's forehead.
Death eaters were poofing themselves away in puffs of black smoke. I gather my concentration again, and feel winds swirling around me. A hurricane. I advance towards Tartarus. I could feel the electricity crackling around me. The wind whistling in my ears.
I could almost feel the worry radiating off him. I smile.
"It's over, pit face!" I yell. "Give up!"
"It will never be over, Percy Jackson." He growls. "As long as you are alive, I will never stop hunting you. I will never give up until the dead bodies of everyone you care about lie at your feet. I want to see the last glimpse of hopelessness in your eyes until I slaughter you myself." I felt a shiver race down my spine. I ignore it.
"Tell that to Thanatos when you see him." I summon the rain from my mini hurricane before forming a sword out of water, and hurling it at Tartarus.
It went straight through his heart.
_-_______________-_
I sit idly on the grass, enjoying the cool breeze on my face. The black lake was resting in front of me, and Harry was sitting by my side.
"Is Draco really a demigod?" He asks. I smile.
"Yeah. A son of Ares. And pretty darn good with his dagger too." I say, fiddling with my pen.
"So what happened to Vodemort? Is he still alive?" He inquires. I sigh. I was never that good at answering this many questions. That was her job. I shook the thought out of my head.
"Well, Voldy's still alive. That water sword thing only killed the Tartarus part of him. Mouldywarts is, unfortunately, all alive and well." We sit in comfortable silence. I stare at the water, mesmerized by the ripples of water coasting through it.
It had been a week since the tournament had ended. Cedric's father had broken down. My pillow was almost soaked by tears by the end of the night.
Dumbledore held a service in his honor. More tears were shed.
Then we all went to bed.
Cho Chang had come to see me. I told her Cedric's last words. Her face became tear stained too.
Harry's voice jolts me back to reality.
"Well, what are you going to do now? Are you going to stay in England?" He prods. I sigh again.
"I don't think so." I crack a grin when I see Harry's slightly disappointed face. "I have to stop running from my past. I'm gonna go back to camp, finish school, go to college in New Rome. Live a semi-normal demigod life."
"Camp?"
"Oh right. Camp Half-Blood. Basically a place where a bunch of half human kids run wild with sharp objects and flame throwers."
"Sounds great." The wind blew past gently.
"I'm sure everyone would want to meet my magician cousin." I smile again.
"What do you mean?"
"Well, how do you feel about visiting sometime?"

? POV
I stare over the castle, a small smile finding it's way onto my face.
I hover over the wet grass, the smell of dew and humidity entering my lungs.
I watch as Percy walks off the grounds with his cousin, laughing and smiling all the way. He was finally happy. And I was glad.
Even from here, I could see the sparkle returned to his stunning sea green eyes.
But even from here, I felt a small pang of sadness.
Gods, I miss him so much....
But I smile again.
I hope that he has nothing but happiness.
I hope that he finds someone.
"Its time to go." I look behind me, and see the god of the underworld. I had begged for this chance, and he had finally grudgingly agreed. I sigh, and take one last look at Percy. I could feel tears brimming at the edges of my eyes. I nod.
"Goodbye, seaweed brain."
