Annabeth POV/

Percy's groaning bought me back to reality. I just couldn't stand there, could I? I stormed off to Percy's room without saying a word.

By the time I was there. It seemed as if there were more lashes on his back then before. My eyes welled with tears as everyone entered the room. I couldn't think of anything to do except smash the leaves in my hands and rub them over Percy's back. The lashes slowly faded leaving scars, and his entire body seemed to relax.

"Percy," I whispered desperately. "Please wake up."

I held out the leaves over his nose as he inhaled their scent. Hazel came up and chanted some sort of prayer and Percy let out a sigh.

Then he suddenly opened his terror-stricken eyes.
