Ok so in this story, everything is different. Percy dies in TLO, Annabeth is made immortal along with Nico and Thalia. I'm not very good at giving titles, but still hope you like the story. Enjoy :D oh and btw…there is a small flashback in the beginning. Most stories I read make flashbacks in italics, but that just proves more difficult to read. That's my personal opinion. Anyways, for those who agree, I have decided to make the flashback in normal font.

This entire story is from Annabeth's POV.

I do not own Percy Jackson books, rights etc etc….the usual.

Chapter 1 – Flashbacks

I was walking along the beach at Camp Half-Blood, when I stopped to think. I do that often when I'm walking here.

It's been 6 years.

6 years since we defeated Kronos.

6 years since we stood our ground, defending Olympus.

6 years since I was made immortal with Nico.

6 years since I heard his voice.

6 years since I saw his face, saw his smile.

6 years since he died.

The memory, the pain, the sadness. Still fresh as if they happened yesterday. Unfortunately, I still remember everything as if it was yesterday.

****FLASHBACK****

"Percy NO," I cried. "You'll kill yourself."

"It's the only way Annabeth," he cried.

He had grabbed Kronos/Luke and was going to use his power of invincibility to destroy them. But to do so, he had to kill himself. I was a few meters away with a broken leg. I couldn't walk.

"Please Percy," I pleaded. "We can find another way. I don't want to lose you."

"Annabeth, there is no other way," he said, tears running across his face. I knew he was scared. I was terrified. Then, his final words : "I love you." And he brought my knife to his back. By killing himself, he had enough power to kill Kronos.

What was left was his body, burnt everywhere except his face. I crawled to him, crying and put his head on my other leg. And I cried. Cried my eyes out.

At that moment the gods, with everyone else, entered the throne room.

All I could do was repeat his name and touch his face.

At first everyone was murmuring between themselves. Then Poseidon, Zeus, Hades, Athena and our friends came next to me.

Poseidon knelt next to Percy and started crying. I never saw a god cry. But at that moment, I couldn't care less.

Then, to everyone's surprise, Percy took in a breath and dissolved into nothing. Everyone gasped.

"He took a breath? Is he alive?" I said, still crying, but with some hope. I looked at Hades.

He looked down and put a hand on Nico's shoulder. Nico in turn looked at me straight in the eyes and looked away, tears falling across his cheek.

"I'm sorry Annabeth. His life aura somehow re-lit, but now it's gone," he said. "He's gone."

I looked down and started crying. Athena came to give me a hug. She too was crying.

"I'm so sorry Annabeth," she said crying. "I never gave him a chance. And now he's gone."

All I could say was his name.

Percy…..Percy…Percy…..

****END OF FLASHBACK****

I started crying at the memory.

Why did he have to vanish? Why didn't I die with him?

For 6 years I've been designing buildings. I've rebuilt Olympus. I reconstructed many famous cities, such as Athens. I've designed countless statues and temples. But on each and every one, I've added something personal.

On each and every one of them, I drew a heart with Riptide in it and Perseus, inscribed in Ancient Greek, across the blade.

I continued to walk along the shore when I met someone.

"Remembering Percy?" he asked. It was Poseidon.

I nodded, trying for a smile, but I couldn't. Fresh tears fell.

"Lady Annabeth, Percy wouldn't have wanted you to stay sad, crying at his memories. He would have wanted you to move on." As he said this, he came closer ti give me a hug. A hug of a father consulting his dead son's love interest.

"Maybe you should leave camp and- "

"No," I cut him off, pulling away. "This place is the only place which reminds me of Percy. I will not go away." I said firmly.

Poseidon nodded. "I understand." Then he looked at the sun and said "If I'm not mistaken, you have Archery Class to teach, am I right?"

"Shit" was all I replied before I ran off. Then I stopped and turned around to thank Poseidon, but he was already gone.

I smiled and instantly teleported to the archery range. Being a god improved my archery 100-fold. Also I'm the 2nd god to remain on Earth until I'm needed on Olympus, like Artemis. She has the Hunt and I have Camp.

And so I started the lesson. The weather was perfect, as usual.

But, little did I know that nothing was going to be the usual by tonight!

Hope you like this new chapter. I know its kinda short and I'm sorry. But the next chapters will be longer I promise. Please review. Tnks a lot!
