-ANNABETH-
-ANNABETH-All eyes were on me. I glanced behind me to see Percy giving me an encouraging smile, and I knew him well enough to know it was real. I turned back to Aphrodite and held my breath and nodded slowly. My heart was beating so hard I was sure everyone could hear it. I sucked in a shaky breath and hoped no one could see how terrified I was.
Percy stepped forwards and offered me his hand, but nobody spoke. I took Percy's hand and found myself instantly transported into a strange room with a circular pool of weird looking water in its center.
"I'm going to try not to be seriouis about this, so stand on the edge and I'm going to push you in, okay? Oh, and hold your breath." Percy said looking the most serious I've ever seen him. I did as he said and stood by the edge of the strange pool and he shoved me just hard enough to throw me over the side. I could have sworn I heard him say something as he pushed: "I love you, Wise Girl."
