Liz And The Last Olympian

Chapter Seven

Kronos and his crew barges in the throne room. I knock one down and lounge at Kronos. He push me down then grabs my hair. He throws me down. The chains from my dream start to wrap around me. Squeezing me to where I can't move.

"Stay down," he orders. I spit at him. Percy attacks Kronos engaging in a battle. The ground starts to shake.

"Percy," Annabeth shouts. "Olympus is getting disconnected."

"Great," I shout back sarcastically. "But I need you to cut these chains."

Annabeth runs over and cuts it with the knife Luke gave her when she was younger. I jump up and run to the thrones. Sorry Zeus. Please don't accidentally burn me. I sit on his throne and try to keep Olympus put. I can tell you it's harder than it sounds.

"Don't let them mess with Liz," Percy yells at Annabeth. I just need to stay on the throne. I look at one of the opponents. The one from my dream.

"Why?" I ask him. He figures out what I mean.

"My mother never got enough respect," he states. Pain shoots through me. I let out a scream. How does Zeus deal with this everyday? Wait, I thought I can't feel pain. The guy looks concern for me.

"Who is your mother?" I ask him. Maybe I can get him to be with us.

"Nemis," he informs me. I let out another scream.

"Can't I help you?" the guy asks.

"Your choice," I order. I can see wheels turning. He lounges at Kronos. Kronos kills the guy.

"No," I shout. Kronos turns towards me.

"Foolish girl," he says. Time seems to slow down. He holds out his hand. Luke's hand. "Take my hand and this will be over."

Before I could mutter a sound, Annabeth lounges at him. He knocks her across the throne room. She is unconscious.

"Annabeth," Percy shouts.

"You made her a promise Luke," I yell. Kronos looks at me. His eyes flicker to blue than back to gold. Luke is still in there. In the corner of my eye can see Annabeth trying to get up.

"You promised you would never hurt her," I say to him. I scream again as another wave of pain washes through

"Foolish girl," Kronos chuckles. He turns towards Percy. "You'll be a great... NO."

Before I know it Luke takes over and stabs himself in his weak spot with Annabeth's knife. The one he gave her when he made the promise. The cursed blade. Luke falls down dead. With Kronos destroyed again. The council runs in.

"Liz," Apollo shouts when he sees me.

"Olympus will stay Elizabeth," Zeus informs me. I stand up a bit shaky. I shrink back down to everyone else's size. Apollo grabs my arm and heals me.

"I'm glad you're alive," Apollo says. I smile.

"Marry me," he orders.

"I already said yes," I reply.

"I mean after the council meeting," he whispers.

"Yes," I reply. I kiss him.
