The fallen warrior

Carter

I saw my friends scramble through the rubble looking for a sign of me. My spirit lingering. Then I saw Nico see the eye of Horus above where my body was Sadie collapsed and cried. She knew I had died and that was Horus's soul leaving. I was whisked off into duat where dad would judge my soul. I waited for a while and when mom and dad saw me they cried. I felt bad for causing so much grief for I was nothing much to grieve about. They hugged me as my heart was weighed. I could chose to stay with dad and mom as a ghost or go on to the after life. I chose to stay with mom. I hugged her for the first time in a long time and it felt good.

Walt

I was shocked. Carter was my teacher, my mentor, my leader, and to see him dead on the table at camp half blood was horrible. A reminder of our quest. I wanted to punch myself for not being able to save him. But I couldn't do anything. He was gone. And I was helpless to do anything about it

Zia

No. I refuse to believe it. He is not dead. I ran through the rubble. Where is he. I would dig all day and night to find him. Nico should have taken him. He could have made it. He was going to be ok. Nico found Horus's soul leave his body. If the host was not alive. The soul returned to the god. That is what happened in front of me.

Nico

I wasn't fast enough. I failed him. The building fell as I was about to go in. Leo tried to calm the flames but failed. I couldn't believe it. I didn't believe it until I felt the familiar ringing in my ears and saw the spirit of the god leave. He was gone and it was all my fault.

Hazel

He was gone. I was at Carter's side. My fingers feeling for a pulse. There was none. He was dead. He sacrificed himself for everyone. I cried into Frank's shoulder. I heard Piper try to charmspeak him into coming alive again. It didn't work. He was gone. In his father's underworld.

Percy

I doused the flames in water. Carter was in there and he would die if I didn't. If he wasn't already. No. I refused to think like that. This is Carter we're talking about he is a 18 year pharaoh he couldn't be dead could he. He would be fine. Oh no. That's not what I think it is. My hand glowed slightly and faded. Leaving nothing but a memory behind. This must mean that he was. . . ."Over here I found him" I heard Nico yell. I ran over to the rubble and my heart fell when I Saw his body. A piece of the roof on him the size of a car. I knew he was gone. I cried because I knew this would have happened and didn't warn him. I could have saved him.

Annabeth

I cried on Percy's shoulder and he cried on mine. Percy was hiding something. I had liked Carter. He would have been a good friend. We had so much in common. He was smart, had a thirst for knowledge, and read a lot of books. He was a good person. Why did there have to be a dumb prophecy. Why did he have to die. We got on the ship and dinner was quiet. Finally I broke the ice. "Percy is there anything that your not telling me?" I asked. "Yes. I had a dream about the current situation." Everyone gasped "What happened in it?" I asked afraid of what I would hear. "I saw Carter's death." He said quietly. Everyone gasped again. Sadie said" Percy, I don't blame you. I had the same dream." I couldn't believe it. "Why didn't you tell anyone?" I asked. "I knew nothing would change it. So I prepared for it. I couldn't tell Carter. It would have killed us all."Sadie said tears streaming down her cheeks.

Leo

I could control fire so why wasn't anything working? I knew it was no use. No one would live. The roof would collapse. I stayed with my friends. Nico started to shadow travel us all out. I was the second group out but saw Carter grow into his chicken headed dude and hold up the roof while Nico continued to shadow travel. Before I left I heard Sadie try to talk him into saving himself but was whisked away before I could hear any more of the conversation. I landed outside and watched horrified as the roof caved in as Sadie and Zia came out. Then I realized. Carter was in there.

Piper

I hovered over Carter's body. "Carter, Wake up please." I said with every ounce of charmspeak in me. It didn't work. My charmspeak always worked. I felt for a heart beat. There was none. He wasn't breathing. Someone do mouth to mouth I thought but knew there was no saving him. He was gone.

Jason

I should have used the winds to hold up the building. Carter would have made it. Instead he was lying dead on the ground covered in ash and rock. Piper tried to charmspeak him and it didn't work. I felt for a pulse in his hand while Hazel did the other and Frank and Piper tried for a heart beat. Nothing just cold skin. I felt ashamed. I could have saved him.

Frank

I couldn't believe it. Carter lay unmoving at my feet. I checked for a heart beat. Nothing. We did everything. He wouldn't do anything but lay there. Hazel cried into my shoulder and I wanted to cry to. He had done so much. Why did he have to die?? why.
