Annabeth POV

As the officer ran out of the building, I just kept screaming.

Percy was shot several times.

He can't be dead. He just can't.

Gabe took him. I can't explain how much hatred I have for him.

As the officer laid me into the back of his car, the building lit on fire.

I screamed, knowing Percy and Gabe would still be in there.

"NO! He's in there! Percy's in there! NOO!" I screamed, and the officer quickly called for back up.

"Don't worry. We have to get you to the hospital. Back up is coming." The officer climbed into the car, and turned on the blaring lights.

He sped towards the hospital.

"My friend is in there!" I yelled. "We have to save him!"

"Firemen will go in there. Right now we have to worry about you." The officer said firmly, and sped even faster.

After five minutes of speeding, the officer finally reached the hospital.

The officer stopped the car right next to the entrance of the hospital.

He opened the door for me, and helped me up.

He slung my arm around his neck, and helped me limp towards the hospital.

We were greeted with doctors and nurses, who placed me onto a stretcher.

"Percy." I croaked.

"Who's Percy?" A nurse asked the police officer.

"I'm assuming it's the boy who we left behind in the burning building." The officers said. "But I set firefighter towards the building. I had to help the girl first."

"Percy! He can't be dead. He can't." I cried.

The nurses pushed me through the halls on the stretched, reaching a room.

"Alright team, let's do what we can." The nurse told the doctors.

"Jut breath. We'll help you, don't worry." The nurse was holding a syringe, and quickly plunged it into my shoulder.

I groaned as black spots danced in my eyes.

"Alright, she's falling asleep." She said, as darkness soon took over.

*+*+*+*+

I woke up to blinding lights. I squinted my eyes, looking around the room.

What happened? Percy...

"Percy..." I groaned, looking around the room.

But then my memories hit me. Hard.

"PERCY!" I yelled, sitting up.

Two nurses quickly entered my room, after hearing my yell.

My breathing was heavy, as I kept screaming.

"Where's Percy!? PERCY!" I cried, tears streaming down my eyes.

"Shhh, Annabeth. I'm so so sorry. I'm sorry." The nurse soothed, hugging me.

"No." I croaked.

He isn't...dead?

He can't.

He just can't.

He can't leave me.

"W-where i-is he??" I croaked, as tears kept falling from my eyes.

"Annabeth, we couldn't find him. I'll let the doctor's talk to you..." The two nurses left me in the room, and came in a doctor.

"Annabeth? Correct?" He asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Y-yes."

"We have much to talk about." The doctor said, and a detective came inside the room.

The doctor sat on a chair next to me and the detective was on the other side.

"Why is the doctor here if you're interrogating me?" I asked, confused between them.

"You might experience, um, a few panic attacks. I'm here to calm you down." The doctor said, frowning.

"Alright. My name is Mr. Dare. I'll be asking you a few questions."

Dare. Why did it sound so familiar?

It was on the tip of my tongue, but I just couldn't get it out.

But then, anger flooded through me.

"You're Rachel's dad! This is all Rachel's fault!" I yelled, sitting up again, pointing my finger accusingly at him.

The doctor got up and pushed me down, but I kept fighting back.

"This is Rachel's fault! All of her fault!" I yelled, struggling against the doctor's grip.

The detective looked confused.

"I'd advise you to get out." The doctor said, turning his head.

"Yeah, cause I'll rip your daughters head off!" I seethed.

The detective hurriedly got out of the room, closing the door behind him.

"Alright, Annabeth. Calm down." The doctor released his grip on me, and I inhaled a deep breath.

"Where's Percy? Where is he?" I yelled at the doctor.

"We couldn't find him."

"You're still looking for him, right?" I choked back sobs.

"Of course. But we haven't seen a single trace of him. We are afraid that.." The doctor stopped, looking at me nervously.

"Go on." I urged.

"He burned to death."

That broke me.

I couldn't believe it.

"The officer that helped you here said he was shot several times. It's impossible for him to run out of the building when he is that weak." The doctor continued.

"I'm sorry Annabeth. We all lose someone important."

"No! He isn't dead! I refuse to believe that!" I cried.

I denied it. I couldn't let it get to me.

After all the abuse, Percy was perfectly fine in school. He should be perfectly fine now.

He is not dead.

He is not dead.

He is not dead.

He is not dead.

But sooner or later, I would realize that it's the truth.
