here's the next chapter! :D

Harry

"He can't hear you!" I yelled to Bellatrix.

A cold shiver went up my spine when I heard Voldemort's voice. What? h-h-how did HE get here? I thought to myself. I knew I was in deep dookie until I heard Ron scream "Dumbledore!" I turned around to see the familliar face of Dumbledore, with his long, gray beard and half-moon glasses. I took a deep breath of relief.

"Ah, Tom. It is a pleasure to see you again," Said Dumbledore. Voldemort sneered. I bet he didn't like to be called 'Tom'. I knew a huge duel was about to start between them, and after a few minutes, they began a big fight with some of the most powerful spells.

Percy
(There's a time lapse, get over it! I can't find my copy of HP5! :P)

After a few minutes of Dumbledore and Vomitface battling, all us Percy Jackson folk got pretty bored. The Death Eaters had backed off, and we were watching old men shoot spells at each other. By this time we had moved out into the Atrium of the building, and there was a bunch of people watching, but that didn't change the fact that is was pretty boring. Come on! We had seen MUCH more epic stuff than this! Clarisse fighting the Drakon, and me fighting a hoard of Telkhines, and a bunch of other stuff! (I have to admit, me fighting a hoard of Telkhines wasn't very fun, though.)

Finally, Vomitface took Bellatrix and they escaped by what looked like some sort of shadow travel. All of the sudden, an important looking man shouted, "He IS back!"And there was a lot of photographers taking pictures of a depressed looking Harry, and Dumbledore.

"Hey! Didn't we taunt the goons with our swords?" I joked to my friends.

"And hairbrushes!" Added in Rachel.

"And hairbrushes," I said back to her.

Eventually, after many pictures had been taken, Dumblydoor told us to go back to the castle... on a portkey.

"What's that?" Annabeth asked him.

"It is an object that is enchanted. When you touch it, it kind of Appa- I mean, shadow travels you to where it is programmed to go," he said. Might as well give it a shot...

The portkey kind of reminded me of shadow travelling. A bit. Well, it felt like you were on a merry-go-round going REALLY fast, and then you couldn't let go of the thingy that we were supposed to hold onto. After about 15 seconds, we finally landed. Guess what. Harry fainted.

Harry

okay, okay, I didn't faint because of the portkey. I fainted because Vomitface (hey, can't I say it too?) HAD to give me a weird dream AGAIN.

"At last!" I called out to my Death Eaters. I was telling them the news. "After a long time, I have finally aquired an amazing magical object from our little Draco, here. THE HELM OF DARKNESS!" I yelled, holding up the helm. There were gasps from the Death Eaters.

"Ah, you may be wondering what it does. It allows me to become... darkness. I become invisible. Nobody can touch me, see me, or hear me. I can travel anywhere and radiate fear so bad it can drive muggles insane." Now there was some agreement among the Death Eaters: The Helm was amazing. I put the helm on, and I saw the Death Eaters gasp...

~0~

"Harry!" Hermione cried.

Annabeth

After the Potter kid woke up, I saw him holding something... No way. I thought. The Helm of Darkness was in his hands.

"Harry, how did you get that!" We all asked at once.

"What?" Harry looked down to see the Helm in his hands. "Oh my gosh! Voldemort had this! I had a dream and... I must've taken it from him in it!"

"We need it, like, now," said Thalia.

"It would be a really stupid choice not to hand it over!" I said to him. He handed it to Percy.

"Give me that!" Nico said, and grabbed it from Percy. "I need to return this right away!"

"Okay, Annabeth, you and Thalia escort the Half Bloods to camp. I'll go with Nico to the Underworld to return the Helm," said Percy.

"Sounds fine with me. And, Percy, try not to kill yourself," I said, and then kissed him full on the mouth.

After about 10 seconds, Thalia butted in saying "Um, Annabeth, we should probably get going..."

Percy and I broke apart, blushing.

"Better get going, Seaweed Brain."

"Same, here, Wise Girl." And I ran off to go get the Half-Bloods to go to camp.

Well, we're done here!

Wow.

Okay, that was so EPIC.
