Hey guys! Read and enjoy! Please review!

"Percy, you can't do this alone!" Annabeth screamed.

Percy shook his head. "I have to. It's you or it's me, and I-I can't let it be you."

"Please, just let me go with you." Annabeth begged. "We'll last longer together."

Percy rested his forehead against hers. Tears slipped out of his tightly closed eyes. "I can't let you go. I just can't."

"You can't decide for me. Just let me stay with you. Please! I can't live without you."

"You can, and you will." Percy insisted. "I love you, but I don't want you to put your life on hold for me. I want you to fall in love with someone else. Marry him, have kids, live a happy life."

Annabeth shook her head rapidly. "I can't. I love you. I don't think I could love anyone else. I need you. Please?"

"I have to. I'm sorry but-" he stopped talking. He reached into his pocket and pulled out Riptide.

"What?" Annabeth asked, looking at the pen.

"Riptide returns to my pocket." He stated obviously.

"So what?" Annabeth asked, still crying.

"It returns to me because I'm it's owner." Annabeth still wasn't connecting the dots. "Annabeth, I'll make you a deal. I swear I'll try my hardest to get out, I swear it. But if I die, I want you to have Riptide. If I die, Riptide will be yours. It will end up in your pocket. If you truly think you can't move on, you can wait. But if you wake up and find Riptide in your pocket, I want you to move on. For me."

Annabeth shook her head. "I can't wait that long. I need you to stay with me now."

"Annabeth, please. Be reasonable."

"No, I won't leave you."

"But you have to." He looked up. "Jason, Frank?" The two understood what Percy wanted and held Annabeth back so she wouldn't be capable of following Percy.

Percy made his final farewells. He shook hands with all the guys. He told Frank he was proud to have the Chinese-Canadian as a great-times-a-thousand nephew. He told Leo to stop blaming himself for the fall. It was inevitable. He told Jason he was a great leader and asked him to unite the camp for him. When he got to Nico, he told his cousin to tell Sally and Thalia what happened.

Percy hugged both the girls. He asked Piper to help Annabeth move on since he probably wouldn't make it. He told Hazel he was the most proud of her and she was secretly his favorite cousin.

Percy walked back over to Annabeth and kissed her sweetly. Her lips tasted like sugar, a perfect pair with his overly salty lips. "I love you Wise Girl." He told her, tears falling on his own cheeks. "I love you so much more than you'll ever know."

"Don't go." She begged weakly. "Please."

"I'm sorry Wise Girl." With that Percy walked back into the darkness. He prepared himself to finish shutting the ajar door. Leo and Nico took their places at the outside doors. Together, they pushed and the large doors started to come together.

Annabeth started struggling against Frank and Jason. She managed to break free, but she was too late. The doors had slammed shut. Annabeth fell to her knees, crying, and started pounding her fist on the door halfheartedly. "What happened to never leaving me again?" She whispered to Percy through the doors. "You promised."

This will eventually become a two or three-shot. But this is it for now since school just started and I have other stories. Please review and tell me what you think! Check out my other stories and check out my friend's page: Tom Marvolo Riddle 2
