Percy P.O.V.

No.

No, no, no, NO!

Her body drops ten feet away from me.

"ANNABETH!" I scream untill my voice is raw, hardly realizing the physical pain. Big, hot tears are streaming down my face. Everything around me is far away and detached. It feels like someone hollowed out my insides and only left behind my acid burnt skin.

This can't be happening. This isn't real. But why isn't she getting up then? Why is Kronos still alive? Kronos, I swing around at the memory of Annabeth's last act to kill Kronos. He will be sorry.

"You!" I say in an unrecognizable voice. It scares me slightly. My voice is hoars and raw with barely controlled anger, power and pain.

Kronos gave a cruel, overconfident laugh with only a hint of fear. Good, he should be afraid. He won't just die, he'll suffer. I can almost feel his feebly, weak heart beating its last beats. It is like I can feel his blood pumping through his vains.

Thump thump.

Thump thump.

I feel a tingling, pulling sense in my stomach. The sort I get before I make an exceptionally big wave or try something new with my powers.

I wonder? Is this all my imagination or can I really feel Kronos's heart and blood beating. Humans are about 70% water, maybe this alien creature as well? What if... ?

A laugh crueler and colder than Kronos's escaped my mouth.

Before I could think any further my barely controlled anger broke loose. Kronos started to wither, folding into himself. I felt something, that had only just started to heal from the time I controlled Misery's own poisen, shatter inside me again. Would it heal this time?

Yells of pain flowed out of Kronos's ginormous mouth. "Please! Stop, I'll give you anything!" he begged. I knew the coward would be sorry when it came to saving his own skin.

"No," I said in a cruelly cheerful voice that once again surprised and scared me. I can feel maniacal smile plastered onto my face.

Finally Kronos crumples up into a liquid-less, limp form. A last painful breath leaves his sunken in mouth. An excruciating pain overwhelmed me aswell. That took a lot of energy. I stagger over towards Annabeth's limp, beautiful form and collapse with my head on her chest.

A faint thump thump, thump thump, reaches my ears.

An overwhelming amount of joy settles over me. Annabeth, whose body had drooped to the ground only minutes before, is alive.

She's alive.
She's alive.

Ringed through my head as I passed out aswell.

As I've probably mentioned, Percabeth is my OTP and I would cry for the next few months in one of them died. Thus, Annabeth and Percy have been spared, for now, and so have my tears.

Don't die like Annabeth almost did and breathe lots of air!
