Chapter 8

Percy's pov.

I ran through the woods not caring that I was leaving a trail. If I could just get there before they reached me. it would all be over. I could see it. Only thirty feet! Adrenalin and longing pumping through my veins. Then A shot went off and a screaming red hot pain exploded in my leg. But I kept going as if nothing happened. Then it happened again when I was only ten feet from my objective. The pain exploded in my shoulder this time! Pitching me in to a cork screw.

I could feel the power reaching out to me. then… I hit it. Cool, calming sensation as the bullets were pushed out of my body and the wounds healed. Then a familiar power coursing through me! the small shallow river I had seen on my jump earlier that morning, had long since felt the power of Poseidon. But obeyed my every command.

The insurgents positioned themselves around me, waiting for me to re surface . But being able to breath under water… I felt a all to familiar tug in my gut and sent the river shooting out knocking most of them out or killing them. Then I at up and killed the rest with my assault rifle. Then I called over the head set.

"over lord do you read me?" there was a long pause.

"Holy mother of god! Alpha leader is that you?" I grinned.

"Over lord this is Alpha leader actual. I have killed all the perusing insurgents and request evac!"

"Roger that Alpha leader. Evac is on the way sending coordinates now. Someone up there must really like you. See you back at base." I received the coordinates and sprinted off to the extract pint. I could wait to get back to Annabeth.

My plain touched down two days after the mission. I got off the plain and got in my car. After I got off the phone I started up the car and drove off. I had three stop to make before I reached Annabeth. I walked in to the store and picked up the object I had requested to be costume made before I left.

Annabeth's pov

I opened the door and gasped. Tears stung my eyes. I collapsed to my knees. Percy was there in his Uniform on one Knee with a little grey velvet box in his hands. Opened with the most beautiful ring I had ever seen.

"Annabeth Chase… will you marry me?" he asked with his famous smile.

"yes…" I whispered. "Yes! Oh Percy oh chores I'll marry you!" I ran forward he picked me up when I was with in his arms proximity. As he wrapped me in his powerful strong arms I smashed my lips into his! He kissed back immediately on contact. I couldn't hold back any more I let the tears roll. I was so happy he was alive! And he just purposed! I Annabeth Chase was getting married to Percy Jackson! All the times I had dreamed about it. Imagined it… it was finally happening!

So many emotions rolled through me. Percy finally put me down and we finally broke apart breathing heavy. The tears still rolling he wiped them away. He got back down on one knee taking my hand and slipping the grey silver band on my ring finger, with the sea green emerald on it. Then stood back up and reached behind his back and pulled out two tickets.

"Final surprise." I looked at the tickets. The destination was Greece! The one place I had always wanted to go to but never found the time. I smiled and kissed him again.

Time break. A couple months latter.

Percy Pov

I stood on a stunning Beach in Greece. Friends and family were gathered around. The biggest attractions, Athena, and Poseidon! Ya I pulled some strings.

Flash back

The elevator dinged and the doors opened to reveal Olympus. It was even more beautiful since Annabeth redesigned it. I marched past every one, in to the library. There stood the goddess that hated me the most. I knelt and spoke

"Lady Athena!" she world around ready to smite me.

"Oh!... It's You!" she emphasized the you. With somewhat less loathing then I remember.

"Now I know Lady Athena that you don't like me with your daughter, and that you and my father have had your differences…"

"Differences! He.."

"Yes my lady he has done some things that were out of line, and disrespectful. But what gods haven't! and your all to proud to apologize to each other… but my lady I ask you to look past your rivalry with my father…" I paused. Her face was relaxed and slightly surprised.

"why have you come here to me Percy? I have not spoken to you since you saved Olympus… surly you came here for more then the age old conflict between your… father and I."

"Yes my lady… I came to ask your permission to marry your daughter Annabeth." I said and bowed my head ready for the worst.

"Stand Percy." I stood. "you are not the insolent, disrespectful boy I once saw. You came here today, apologized for a conflict that has long caused problems between me and your father. I hope that your father can one day do the same. You have shown me time and time again that you are not your father and by far the greatest hero to perhaps ever live. You have given up much and received very little your whole life… so you have my permission to marry my daughter. I wish all my children can find some as loyal, brave, and wise as you Percy." Athena had a smile on her face. Some thing that I would never have dreamed of seeing. Then I hit me she had complemented me! and not a small one! She had called me wise! As If this was not enough medicals to witness. My father walked in

"Athena… my son is right… I crossed the line when… well when I had sex in your temple! I want to Apologize for that. Though it is not enough after all these years… I hope you can one day forgive me.. or find some thing I can do to make it up to you. I have let my pride blind me all these years…" My father said with the most utter regret and sincerity I had ever hear.

Athena smiled a mischievous smile. "I thank you and except your apology, but there is something you can do to make it up to me…" by that point I had slowly baked up and ran out of Olympus faster then ever thought possible!

End of flash back.

And got them both her for the big day. But the funny thing. Is My dad had Apologized for the whole temple thing and Athena had stopped hating him. now it was more of a friendly rivals thing. So they stood beside each other smiling! It was kind of creepy…

Then the music began to play. I looked at Annabeth as she walked up the Isles with her father. She was smiling and looked so happy. Which made me happy; the rest of the ceremony went as it always does. We kissed, and danced and all the other things normal people do at weddings. Funny may be I could have a normal life form now on… but knowing me…. probably not.

I was slow dancing with Annabeth when I whispered; "love you wise girl." She laughed.

"I hope so seaweed brain. You did just marry me." then she kissed me… my life as about to get a lot better.

Ok so anyone who thinks that Athena and Poseidon were ooc. No they just finally got over there petty differences. And Athena made Poseidon do some menial takes like tell the whole counsel that Athena is better than him, and other stupid things like that. Well there you have it. Percy and Annabeth together forever! The way it's supposed to be! Hope you liked the last chapter! Thanks to all those that reviewed and helped me! my next story is called 'nothing stays hidden.' Hope you all check it out. It will probably be rated M but wont have any sex sense unless someone else rights them. Pleas review! let me know what you thought of the final chapter.
