Percy growled in frustration as Gaea blocked another one of his attacks than again when she kicked away Jason Grace a close friend of Percy's before he could make the killing blow. Percy's eyes were red from crying as he watched his friends Hazel, Frank and Leo pass to the realm of Hades. 

He needed to finish this fight now, he locked swords with Gaea again as sparks flew. Percy pushed harder till he was leaning over Gaea he hooked his leg behind hers and with a final push knocked her on her back.

"Before this war is done. Athena's child will die and I will watch from my deep sleep as everyone from your life is torn away and you are nothing but a lost soul wandering the world with out cause or hope." Gaea snarled. Percy's eyes widened in rage than gripped his trusty sword riptide and thrust it into her chest and into her heart. 

The world shook as the primordial goddess returned to her slumber for the second time. Percy scanned the crowds and saw his true love Annabeth looking at him with awe and love. Percy smiled widely before shouting. 

"Olympus!" He said with raised hands in triumph the demigods repeated the cheer and continued fighting the remaining monsters. He looked back at Annabeth with horror as she had a spear thrust through her chest. Percy sprinted over before the dracnae had a chance to pull it out he cut the spear in half and while doing that he cut the dracnaes hands off as well before she had a chance to scream he cut her head off. 

"Stay tough Annabeth you can hold on ok? Apollo!" Percy said to the love of his life before screaming the last part. The god of the sun appeared in a flash and started his work before leaning to Percy. 

"I c-can't heal her. I have no energy to fix the healing." Apollo said sadly. 

"P-percy please don't follow me OK? Promise me? You have to stay strong. Please I don't want to see you for a long while. Have a family and you will see me later I promise." Annabeth coughed out blood and Perseus watched as the stormy grey eyes he grew in love with grow dim and her arm limply fell out of his. He gathered his thoughts and said to Apollo in a deadly quiet voice. 

"No one touches her." Apollo nodded before saying. "Don't do anything stupid." 

Percy ignored him as he charged into a group of monsters. Everyone stopped to watch the engraged son of Poseidon decimate the rest of the monster army none of the monsters could touch him than everyone's eyes widened when they saw a red, green and gold glow surrounding the young son of Poseidon who was now blest by Ares, Poseidon and Apollo. 

After his rage a dracnae, the last monster left standing, dopped her sword in terror. 

"Mercy!" It cried and almost was relieved that the young demigod lowered his sword before stabbing the creature in the stomach and twisting it, the monster clutched at the sword screaming in agony before dissolving. 

"Everyone go to your parent and you will be tansfered to camp half blood. The remaining seven come with me to Olympus to recieve your wish." Zeus boomed. Everyone nodded an did as they were told. 

Percy hasn't spoken a word to anyone since the death of Annabeth. Jason and Piper were offered godhood, they accepted. Jason became the god of courage and heroes and became the newest Olympian. Piper became the goddesses of friendship and trust and also became an Olympian. 

"Perseus Jackson son of Poseidon. Savior of Olympus not once but twice, survivor of Tartarus and  the defeater of Kronos and Gaea. You are offered to be a god and the newest Olympian. What say you?" Zeus asked. 

Percy looked down and considered the thought before replying. "I respectfully decline your request my lord." The gods looked at the young demigod in awe and sympathy.
