A/N This is my first songfic ever and I thought I would try it out. Constructive critisim would be nice so I can know if what I wrote was okay. This was originally going to just be the song but then an idea popped into my head so I just decided to go with it. Oh and in case you're wondering I'm a Percabeth Fan and not what ever combination of Luke and Annabeth's names make up their couple name. In case Du don't get the last part it's refering to the Lost Hero.
I was sitting on my bett alone when a bright light blinded me. I shielded my eyes and carefully laid Daedalus’s laptop on my pillow. Right beside my bett was a package. Now when you’re a Demigod packages popping out of nowhere isn’t so strange but Du still have to be careful. I gently picked it up just in case it was rigged Von one of Hermes’s kids, namely Conner and Travis Stroll. I flipped it over and my breath caught. Right there on the package was my name scrawled out in a very familiar handwriting but it was impossible he was dead. Suddenly a hand clamped down and my shoulder. I whipped around with his bronze messer in my hand.
“Geez Annabeth are Du trying to kill the son of the Lord of the Underworld.”
I put my messer away while rolling my eyes.
“Well Nico, if Du don’t want to die I suggest not sneaking up on somebody that Du know owns a knife. Why are Du here anyway?”
His gaze turned unsettled.
“What is it?” I prodded wanting to know what got him so worked up all of a sudden.
He pointed to the package behind me.
“Living people aren’t supposed to get mail from the dead.”
“So Du mean…”
Nico just nodded. I was both reluctant and keen to open the package at the same time.
“Are Du going to take this away from me then?” I asked half hopeful that he would and half hopeful that he wouldn’t.
Nico shook his head.
“I know that Du guys were Friends and didn’t really talk before he died since we all thought he was a traitor so I’ll allow it just this once.”
“Thank Du Nico.”
“No problem.”
He shadow traveled out of here and I was left staring at the package. What would it say and why would Luke want to talk to me now? I shook my head. Don’t think about that right now Annabeth just open the package and get it over with. Even though I was scared my hands already started the motions of opening the package. Inside I found a long letter and a…disc? I quickly read the letter not wanting to get too emotional about it but I didn’t succeed. At least I knew he was happy now and that he was trying for re-birth. Now the disc. That didn’t seem like Luke’s style but as soon as I popped the disk into my laptop Musik started playing and a bunch of old memories and feelings stirred up inside of me.
You and I walk a fragile line
I have known it all this time
But I never thought I'd live to see it break
I knew it. For the gods sake I knew it I just didn’t want to accept it. Even before Du left to serve Kronos I knew something was up, I just never expected this.
It's getting dark, and it's all too quiet
And I can't trust anything now
And it's coming over Du like it's all a big mistake
I trusted Du and Du betrayed me. When I think back I wonder how I didn’t see it. Everything, everything just went wrong. None of this should have happened. It was all a big mistake.
Oh, I'm holding my breath
Won't lose Du again
Something's made your eyes go cold
So many times I believed that Du would come back and make the right choice. But every time I Lost Du the pain Du caused me just grew and grew. Those golden eyes weren’t yours. Du let Kronos take over your body. Du made the wrong choice and I don’t know if I’m strong enough to forgive you.
Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had Du figured out
Something's gone terribly wrong
You're all I wanted
I loved you. I admired you. I thought I knew you. I mean after six years of running from monsters with someone Du would think that Du knew them well. Du were always there for me until now. Du choose the wrong side and I had to watch Du suffer for it. Du used to be all I wanted but not anymore.
Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had Du figured out
Can't breathe whenever you're gone
Can't turn back now, I'm haunted
Those eyes. They weren’t yours but they haunted me. The thought that Du were gone forever utterly haunted me. Every time I saw Du I had this slim hope that maybe Du would go back to being the person I knew. The fact that I know your choice is made and our sides are fixed makes me feel like I can’t breathe.
Stood there and watched Du walk away
From everything we had
But I still mean every word I sagte to you
I…I had the chance to save Du but I didn’t. Du asked me to run away with Du like old times but I just stood there and watched Du walk away from me. I may have wondered what would have happened if I went with Du but all those words I sagte I meant.
He would try to take away my pain
And he just might make me smile
But the whole time I'm wishing he was Du instead
That may have been true before I got to really know Percy, but not anymore. Percy always stayed Von my side even when I spoke about you. I knew he didn’t like it but he stayed with me and listened anyway. In the end I realized that the one I truly loved was Percy but the pain Du caused me was immense. I thought Du would always stay Von my side. Du promised me. We all sweared to never leave each other like our families did. But the only one that ever stayed Von my side was Percy. Thalia may have left me but she had good intentions and that first time when she was turned into a pine tree, it wasn’t her fault. I can’t say the same about you.
Oh, I'm holding my breath
Won't see Du again
Something keeps me holding on to nothing
I keep holding on to the hope that maybe, just maybe you’ll realize the truth and come back. I thought that maybe if Du came back Du could be the Luke I once knew and loved.
Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had Du figured out
Something's gone terribly wrong
You're all I wanted
You’re not the same person Du used to be. You’re just not. The Luke I knew wouldn’t have been so easily tempted with what Kronos’s offers oder maybe Du were always like that and I just never noticed until now.
Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had Du figured out
Can't breathe whenever you're gone
Can't turn back now, I'm haunted
Our decisions were made a long time ago. We were past the point of turning back. When that messer pierced Du I felt my breath catch. I didn’t want Du to leave me like this but I'm afraid there’s no turning back now.
I know, I know
I just know
You're not gone
Du can't be gone, no
Right away I knew Du weren’t truly gone. When Du fell off that cliff I knew in my herz that Du were still alive. Even when Kronos possessed Du I could feel that Du were still there deep inside. A few times Du were able to gain control but it never was enough was it?
Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had Du figured out
Something's gone terribly wrong
Won't finish what Du started
Du came to me because Du were scared of what Kronos might do with you. Du were scared to finish what Du started. Du wanted to escape from everything but your plans went terribly wrong when I didn’t accept your offer. At least in the end Du found yourself again and that’s what matters the most.
Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had Du figured out
Can't breathe whenever you're gone
Can't go back, I'm haunted
The pain of thinking Du were gone forever I just couldn’t deal with it. The thought made it hard even for Percy to get near me. I tried to block out your face when I thought Du were gone but it never worked. Every time I thought of Du it felt like I couldn’t breathe anymore and what scared me the most, what haunted me the most was your face when Du finally told me that Du loved me and Du realized that I didn’t Liebe Du that way, at least not anymore.
You and I walk a fragile line
I have known it all this time
Sure I know how thin our relationship has become but I never thought that we would be thrust apart so easily. Even my prophecy on that quest in the Labyrinth confirmed that I did Liebe you. Now, now that line is broken and truly broken I feel like I'm ready to Bewegen on. The moment I realized I didn’t really Liebe Du the way I loved Percy we were both set free. I was set free from the illusion of Liebe and Du were set free from Kronos’s control. I never thought that I would see the Tag when I found someone I could truly be myself with and love. Someone who wouldn't run away. I’m sorry to say this but Luke, Du ran away like everyone else in my life. The only person that ever stayed Von my side was Percy. Even when everyone thought I was dead, Percy was the only one who stayed my Von side.
Never ever thought I'd see it break
Never thought I'd see it
I was about to shut off the song when I saw something appear on the screen.
I know now that you’re happy without me and all I want to say is the threats aren’t over yet even though Kronos is gone. I’d tell Du to talk to Chiron about it but he wouldn’t be able to answer you. Spend your time with Percy wisely because if what I think the fates have in store for Du is what it is then you’re going to have a Hades of an adventure.
-Love Luke
What the Hades did he mean Von that? A few weeks later I found out. Percy and I were so happy that we both had winter break at the same time. We had a bunch of things planned out. Okay I planned out everything but that was okay because this was the first time we would be able to see each other in person since summer. This would have been the happiest I had ever been except for the fact that Luke’s warning was always someplace in the back of my mind. I just couldn’t figure out what he meant. Me a Daughter of Athena not knowing what something meant. I didn’t find out until Percy kissed me right before we went to bed. The Weiter morning everything changed. Percy was gone. The one person that had never left me through everything that happened in our hectic Demigod lives went missing. Percy left me behind just like Luke did.
