Percy's POV
Chaos.
He stood in front of me, his arms spread protectively.
"Leave."
He cocked his head.
"Well.... I always wanted to kill him you know."
"Chaos."
I stepped from behind him, standing next to him.
"... I always wanted to fight him."
"Percy-"
A loud slap echoed across the arena.
"Are you crazy!" Victor yelled. "Let Chaos figure this out!"
"Please." my voice was low, so nobody could hear but Victor. "Please."
A blast of wind blew him across the arena and a loud thud reverbrated as he hit the wall. I stared in horror at Tartarus and he shrugged.
"Tartarus." Chaos warned. "This is my last warning.
"Percy."
I stared down at Annabeth's gray eyes.
"Get out of here." I hissed, grabbing her shoulders, an unconscious move trying to protect her. She stared down at my hands and picked them both off, holding my rough, bloodstained hands in her small white ones.
"You had enough." she said quietly.
I looked down, and my power seemed to leave me. My anger too.
"I'm sorry." I said, slipping my hands out of hers.
"I don't think I had enough."
I turned to Chaos, picking up my sword.
"Can you be the umpire for this round?"
"Percy-"
"Fighting to the death?"
"Well you can't exactly die..."
"What about this. We fight for 20 minutes. Not a second less or a second more."
"Deal."
Chaos stood still between the two rivals. He sighed.
"Fine." he grabbed Annabeth's shoulder and also got Victor.
We were left to fight, and I took a deep breath.
20 minutes.
He smiled.
I knew what I had to do.
I had to stay still.
That would be the way- the only way to die.
20 minutes.
I let out a long sigh.
I hope I die soon.
