Brighter Than The Sun (by Colbie Calliat)

When they finally make it out of that gods-forsaken pit, the light is unbelievably bright.

After nearly a month being in total darkness, suffocating claustrophobia dictating nearly every thought, it was a miracle in itself to be outside of Tartarus. The addition of sun to the mixture was sensory overload. He closes his eyes for a minute, simultaneously soaking in the rays and protecting his dilated pupils from being burned.

He dares to look again, and the first thing he sees is Annabeth's smile. Her cheekbones protrude unhealthily, her skin as thin and pale as paper, but he swears her grin is more blinding than the sun.

A/N: I had to do it. I finally finished MoA and you do not know how MAD I was about the ending. Grrr….
