I AM NOT POSTING UNTIL I KNOW WHAT CLIFFHANGER MEANS!!! ZUT! Great, now I'm swearing in french!

as long as you post I'm fine and cliffhanger means like where the writing leaves off with you not knowing something so to say.. I think....

here's the definition from dictionary.com "a melodramatic adventure serial in which each installment ends in suspense in order to interest the reader or viewer in the next installment." now post please!

well i think its when an author ends a book or a chapter at the highest point of excitment....like a book ending with the main character getting shot!! (which i have read a book where that happens) they kinda leave you guessing and wanting more

Ok, since you gave me a definition. Thanks Calypso_!


This is another long chapter (maybe longer than the one before).
This is also dedicated to Calypso_ because she gave me a definition.
Enjoy!

Recovery
(Annabeth’s PoV)

I was instructing Jenna Krinn on where to place the support beam when a camper ran up to me. I recognized Harry Walker from Hermes Cabin. He gasped out, “Monsters... hundreds... more...at the border...”
I cursed. I ran to Chiron and told him the news. Chiron yelled out, “Monster attack!” Then galloped to the Big House to blow the conch horn. I ran to my cabin and dressed in armour. I ran out again to the Big House. Most of the campers are already there, in battle armour. Chiron took his bow and led us to Half-Blood hill. Jason, Piper, and Leo caught up to me. “What’s going on?” Jason aksed.
“Monster attack,” I said.
We went up the hill. I saw a trio appear on top of the hill. They all looked like they just battled a whole army of monsters. Which they probably did. 2 guys and a girl. The two guys were supporting the girl, who appears to be unconscious. One of the guys then fainted. The other guys lost his grip on the girl, and she tumbled to the ground. I gasped, and ran ahead. I recognized the only guy standing. Then he fell to the ground. I could hear the rest of the campers running too. Chiron was right beside me.
We reached the trio. I saw a guy who looked like he could take on a number of monsters (probably a son of Ares), a girl with and empty quiver (maybe a daughter of Apollo), and finally... Percy.
I surveyed the hill. I saw a broken bow, a broadsword, a broken spear, and a couple of daggers. Looks like they fought the monsters Harry talked about all by themselves. The Apollo cabin already started carrying the trio back to the Big House.
I walked to the broken weapons with Jason, Piper, and Leo. We picked up the broken weapons. “I think I recognize two of them,” Jason said. “The big guy’s Jerry Daggre, son of Mars. I think. And maybe the girl is Carmen Felton, daughter of Apollo. I don’t know the last guy.”
I looked at him, trying to mask my emotions. “The last guy is Percy Jackson.”
I walked back up the hill. They caught up with me. “Hey,” Piper said, “at least they survived...”
“Yeah,” Leo said. “They kicked all those monsters’ butt all by themselves. How many monsters were there anyway?”
“According to Harry Walker, there were hundreds.”
Leo whistled. “I don’t think I can take those on.”
We headed to the Big House, where campers were shouting questions at Chiron. When he saw me, he looked relieved. He stamped his hoof and the campers went silent. He cleared his throat. “The Apollo cabin are assessing their injuries. For now, back to whatever you were doing!”
The campers all shouted in protest. I said, “Back to your activities. Now.”
They all went away, grumbling. Piper asked, “How’d you do that?”
“I have some influence.”
I went to the infirmary. A dozen Apollo kids were milling around, holding ambrosia and nectar and water and other medical stuff. I went to Will Solace. “How are they?”
Will said, “Percy’s ok. He just needs a lot of rest. He used a lot of energy fighting those monsters. The other guy-“
“Jerry,” Jason said.
“Yeah, Jerry has injured legs. It’s not broken, but it has a lot of deep cuts. He has a black eye, not really important, and he has a lot of cuts and bruises. He lost a lot of blood. The girl-“
“Carmen,” Jason said.
“Yeah sure. Carmen has a broken left arm, a very deep gash on her right arm, and a nasty cut in her face. She also has cuts and bruises, and lost a lot of blood. She may have a concussion. She’s in worse condition than Jerry.”
I looked at them. Jerry was being tended by several kids. Carmen was surrounded by kids. “I have to go back,” Will said.
I nodded, and he joined the people around Carmen.
Jason, Piper, Leo, and I walked out of the Big House.
“So that’s him huh?” Jason asked. “I thought he’s invincible? Why’s he unconscious?”
“He is invincible except for one spot,” I answered.
Piper said incredulously, “He’s dead?”
“No,” I looked at her strangely. “Percy’s just exhausted. Chiron told me that it takes a lot of energy to be invincible, so he sleeps a lot. Or something like that...”
“Uh-huh...”
We took off our armour and went back to working on Argo II.
But what Annabeth really wanted to do is to sit down next to Percy, hold his hand, and stay with him until he wakes.
---
(Percy’s PoV)
Memories plagued my sleep.

Annabeth holding up the sky...
The satyr playing reed pipes...
A statue that looks like a tusk-less walrus wearing thrift store clothes...
An army of skeletons, a hellhound defending me...
Sally shooting a monster with a shotgun...

Many memories returned to me. Maybe it’s because of the familiar surroundings. But although many of my memories returned to me, I don’t feel like I really know them...
---
2 days later
(Jerry’s PoV)
I woke up. I looked around and saw white beds. 4 of them were occupied. 2 of the beds were occupied by Carmen and Percy. The other 2 were occupied by 2 guys who looked like identical twins.
One of the twins said, “Hey. Heard you fought like a hundred monsters.”
“Er...” I wasn’t sure what to say.
He laughed. “It’s cool. We’ve all fought our share of monsters.”
“Yeah,” his twin added, “like in the Titan war.”
My head snapped up. “You know about the Titan war?”
I face-palmed my head. Of course they know. Sally and Dr. Chase explained that.
The guy laughed. “Of course we know the Titan war. We fought in it. Every demigod did, bad or good.”
“What’s your name?”
The two guys said, “Connor,” at the exact same time.
“Seriously.”
They started fighting. “You’re Travis! I’m Connor!”
“No, I’m Connor!”
“No, me!”
“But you’re Travis!”
“No, you’re Travis!”
I was getting irritated. “Which one is which?!”
They stopped bickering instantly. “I’m Travis,” they both said.
I growled.
They looked wary. One guy said, “I’m Connor.”
The other said, “I’m Travis.”
I sighed. It’s no use. I’ll never tell them apart outside of this room. “Where are we anyway?”
“The infirmary, duh. You, Percy, and the girl-“
“Carmen.”
“Yeah whatever. Anyway, you guys just fought like hundreds of monsters; according to Henry Walker. You guys made all the way to the top of Half-Blood Hill, then you fainted, then we brought you here. Then it’s now. Then I’m saying this. Then-“
“Ok I get the point!” I thought of something. “How much time has it passed?”
“Um, 2 days.”
“Ah.” I leaned back. “So... why are you guys here?”
Travis (or was it Connor? Damn, I already forgot!) said, “Well, we got crushed by a support beam. AGAIN.”
Connor (Travis?) said, “Yeah. It’s like the 5th time it happened.”
“Um... ok...”
I gestured to Percy and Carmen. “How are they?”
Travis/Connor said, “Well, I overheard Will Solace say that she has a broken arm and a concussion and some other medical stuff I couldn’t understand.”
That’s bad, I thought. “What about Percy?”
“Oh he’s fine. You know, invincible and stuff. He’s just really tired from all the fighting.”
I heard a rustle and saw Carmen sitting up.
---
(Carmen’s PoV)
Ow. Head hurts. Arm hurts. Everything hurts. Even thinking hurts.
I turned my head and saw Jerry talking to a couple of guys who could’ve looked like twins. Percy looked like he was sleeping.
“Um, what now?”
Jerry explained. We were fighting the monsters. Someone knocked me out in the middle of the fight. They carried me all the way to the top of the hill and then other people found us and healed us.
“Oh. Who’re they?” I pointed to the twin guys.
They both said, “I’m Travis.”
Then they started fighting.
“I’m Travis!”
“You’re Connor!”
“No, you’re Connor!”
“What’s wrong with you? You were Connor last time!”
“Yeah, like 5 seconds ago!”
I coughed loudly to get their attention. “Your real names?” Jerry growled for emphasis.
They gulped. “I’m Connor, and this is Travis.”
“Thank you.” I looked at Percy. “How is he?”
One of the guys sighed (Damn. I already forgot their names and it hasn’t even been 5 minutes). “Everyone keeps asking that question. He’s just sleeping.”
I sighed in relief. “Where are we?”
“Infirmary.”
“Um, general area?”
“Oh, you’re at Camp Half-Blood. It’s like one of the two places that are safe for demigods.”
“Two? But there’s only-“ I stopped. Sally and Dr. Chase already told you much.
Connor and Travis looked amused. “Yeah, I know. We were shocked at first. We only knew recently that your camp exists. Apparently, that’s where Jason came from. A place for Roman half-bloods.”
“So... this is the Greek version of The Camp?”
“Yeah, pretty much.”
“And Jason is here?”
“Yup.”
“Can I see him?”
“Um...” Travis/Connor said, “as you can see, we’re injured too. For the fifth time.”
Will Solace came in.
“Ah, just in time,” Travis/Connor said. “Will, Carmen asked for Jason.”
“Oh. Ok then. I’ll just check on you guys.”
He checked us over. “Carmen, Jerry, you’re going to have to stay here for another day, for reasons you probably won’t understand.”
I nodded.
“And you guys,” he turned to Connor and Travis, “you can go back to your activities.”
“Yeah!”
“Please don’t get crushed by another support beam.”
“We wont,” they chorused. Then they ran out of the room.
Will said, “I’ll get Jason.” Then he walked out. A few minutes later, Jason came in, along with a guy who looked like a Latino Santa’s elf, a pretty girl with kaleidoscopic (wow, I didn’t even know I knew that word) eyes, and a blonde girl with stormy gray eyes.
Jason said, “Hey Jerry, Carmen. First of all, I barely know you. My memory got stolen, like him.” He pointed at the sleeping figure. “Second, I’m having flashes of memories returning to me, thank gods, so I know a bit about you too.”
“Jason,” Jerry said, “we’ve been looking for you. That’s why we went on this quest.”
“Are you my friends?”
“You knew us. You used to train with me a lot, and you were friends with Carmen.” I didn’t like how he said all those stuff in the past tense.
“Ok.”
The blonde girl stepped in. “You are from the Roman Camp right?”
I answered, “Yup.”
“What’s it called?”
I hesitated. I would be giving out an important secret. I looked at Jerry, and he nodded encouragingly. “We just call it The Camp.”
“Ok. Well, this camp is the Greek version of that camp. This is called Camp Half-Blood.”
We talked about half-blood stuff some more. What happened at the Hill, what stuff they do here (currently, most of the campers abandoned the normal activities and concentrated on building a flying boat).
“Wait,” I looked at the pretty girl, Piper, with confusion. “Did you say flying boat?”
She laughed. “Yeah you heard right. We’ll tell you more once you guys recover.”
The camp director was a guy called Mr. D; who apparently was Dionysus, the Greek god of wine, and Greek counterpart of Bacchus. He’s not here right now, ‘cause he got recalled when Olympus went silent. The activities director’s a guy called Chiron. Oops. I mean centaur. He’s like the Greek counterpart of Lupa. And coincidentally, Chiron came in.
“Hello. I see our 2 of our patients have woken up. I am Chiron.”
“Like...” I searched my brain. “the Greek Chiron? Trainer of heroes and all that?”
He nodded. I was very conscious that I was not kneeling. He seemed to read my mind. Maybe he can. Lupa can too. He seemed nice enough. Like, nicer than Lupa maybe.
“I came here to tell you that you will know everything when you watch the Orientation video... if you have any questions after that, you can ask me or Annabeth, or any of the other experienced campers or counsellors. I hope you have a healthy recovery.” And with that, he walked (cantered?) away.
“Well,” Jason said, “we really need to go back building Argo II. I’ll visit you again later.”
Jerry and I nodded, and Jason, Piper, Leo, and Annabeth walked out of the room. Annabeth cast one long, sad look at the sleeping Percy before leaving the room. Something about that look made me jealous. She’s his girlfriend, I reminded myself. You can’t have him. But I still can’t quell the jealousy.
--
(Still Carmen’s PoV)

It was night. Jerry was already sleeping. Percy was still sleeping. I was trying to sleep.
I heard the door open. I waited for a few seconds and opened my eyes a bit. It was Annabeth. She took a chair. She hauled it beside Percy’s bed and sat down, holding his hand. She stayed there for about 10 minutes, whispering things I couldn’t hear. She kissed him and left the room, leaving me feeling confused, angry, and jealous at the same time.

I am writing this chapter purely from memory. Luckily, I kep notes, so I am able to refer to them. But yeah, I might not post as often for a while...




23
There's no place like home
(Percy's PoV)

I woke up. The first thing I thought was, we made it! And we didn't get brutally killed in the process! The second thing was, where the Pluto am I? The third thing was that I felt very relaxed and well-rested. Not at all what one should feel like after fighting a million monsters.
I sat up and looked around. I saw Jerry snoring loudly, and Carmen tossing and turning in her sleep. I stood up to wake them, but then I realized that would be rude. So I just walked out of the room and wandered around.
Outside, the moon was shining. It was bright enough to see. The place seemed so familiar, yet so distant...
I was now at the beach. I was drawn to it. As I stood there, feeling the soft sand under my bare feet, I heard something. I turned around and saw a girl with auburn hair. Her eyes seemed as yellow as the moon itself. I said, "Artemis."
Artemis smiled. "I am glad you remembered me. You are one of the few men I actually tolerate, and it would be disappointing for you to loose your memory."
"Uh ok. So why are you here?"
"I was sent here to bring a message. Lord Zeus has been keeping a close eye on Poseidon, suspecting that he might contact you at some point now that you are here. So Poseidon sent me here, with a message."
"What is it?"
Her smile faded, and the serious look on her face has been replaced by sadness. "Beware Percy Jackson. The earth would like you very much, and she is very clever."
"What?"
"I am sorry, I cannot tell you more. Just be careful."
The sun was rising. I didn't even know how long I stood there in the beach before Artemis arrived.
Artemis said sadly, "Be careful, hero." And she vanished in a flash of silver light.
I, once again, stood there. What did she mean. She obviously warned me of Gaea, but what?
I watched the sunrise. The sea looked fantastic. It glittered with golden light, and the calm sounds of the ocean waves were very comforting.
"Hey."
I saw Carmen and Jerry standing behind me. "What are you doing here?"
"I could ask you the same thing."
So we stood there, watching the sunrise. Finally, Carmen said, "We should get back to the infirmary. I don't think I'll be able to stand for long."
We headed back to the infirmary. We were lying down on our beds when I thought of something. "Hey, guys, how long has it been since the monster attack?"
Jerry said, "5 days."
"Holy Jupiter, I really slept that long?!"
"Yeah. Annabeth said it's because of your curse. I wasn't really listening.
A conch horn sounded. Then Annabeth appeared in the doorway. "Oh good you're awake. You guys wanna eat breakfast here, or outside?"
"Outside," I said immediately.
Annabeth gave me a weak smile. "So the Seaweed Brain wakes. I ought to knock you out for disappearing like that, but since you've already been knocked out for 5 days, I guess we're even."
We headed to an area with tables. Some had a lot of campers, some had a few campers, a couple had only one camper, and a few were completley empty. I walked to one of the empty tables. I could feel all eyes on me. Carmen and Jerry tried to follow me, but Annabeth whispered something to them, and they seperated and sat at different tables. Jerry went to a table with a bunch of ugly and mean-looking kids, and Carmen sat at a table with people who looked a lot like her. The people on their tables glanced at them for a second, then went back to me. It was getting creepy.
Nymphs served us breakfast. I had Froot Loops, toast, and a glass of OJ. Yum.
When we finished, I immediately went to Carmen and Jerry.
I said, "Well?"
"Well what?" Jerry said.
"What do we do now?"
"You," Annabeth said, "go to your activities. All of our usual activities are abandoned, 'cause all the campers are concentrating on building the Argo II."
"What's Arog II?" I asked.
"It's a flying ship."
"Did you just say-"
"Yes. I did say what I just said. I'll show you."
She led us to a place called Bunker 9. She said the Hephaestus and the Athena cabin are the ones who're supervising the construction.
Once I saw the ship, my jaw totally dislocated from my face (well, not really, but you get what I mean). The Argo II was huge. The frame was done, and people were working the deck. A couple of people waved at me. I saw a couple of guys who looked like twins crushed under a wooden beam that looks like a part of the ship's hull. People were trying to heave the beam off the guys.
Annabeth gronaed. "Again? That's the 6th time!"
Jerry smirked. Carmen stifled a laugh. I was just staring. I got a feeling the two guys are always like this.
"Yo Annabeth!" I saw a guy who looked like a Latino Santa's elf run to us. "I need your advice on-"
He stopped and looked at Carmen, Jerry, and I. "They're ok now?"
"Yup."
"Think you guys can help us build?"
Annabeth protested, "Leo-"
"Yeah we're ok," Jerry interupted.
Carmen and I nodded. Leo told us to buld this stuff, and place it wherever, and heave this thingy up there, etc.
All day, we worked on the Argo II. I helped a lot when I found out that I can sense where there were imperfections on the ship, and how to fix it. I guess it's that son-of-Neptune/Poseidon thing.
"You did that before," Annabeth reminded me. "On Circe's spa in the Sea of Monsters."
---
After dinner, Chiron formally announced that I had finally come back, I brought friends from the Roman Camp, etc...
After that, I was allowed to go back to my old cabin. Carmen and Jerry were staying in the Big House guest rooms. I was about to open the door when I heard a voice say, "Good night."
Annabeth was standing right behind me (what is it with people creeping up on me?). "Um, you too."
"Listen," she hesitated. "Do you remember me? Like, what we did together?"
I said, "I only remember bits of you. You're on most of my memories, but they're all scattered and um, not connected." Did that even make sense?
Annabeth nodded, like it made sense. "Yeah. Well, um... do you remember after the Titan war?"
Yay. Deja vu time:

Annabeth laughed, then she wrapped her hands around my neck. "I will never, ever make things easy for you, Seaweed Brain."

I said, "Yeah, sort of."
She smiled really happy then. "Good."
She went up and kissed me lightly. Then she walked away.
---
I lied down in my bed, trying to sleep. I keep thinking about Artemis's message. What's gonna happen?
I fell aslepp after mulling it over.
Whoopee. Another dream from the dirt lady.

Kidnapped!
(Percy's PoV)

"Join me," Terra whispered. "Or I will be forced to use... unconventional ways."
"Go to Tartarus!" I shouted at her. "And stop ruining my sleep!"
I uncapped Riptide (I didn't even know I have Riptide even in dreams) and stabbed the goddess of earth.
She crumbled into tiny little dirt pieces.
***
*one month later...*

All the councellors (and Jerry and Carmen) were in the rec room, shouting at each other.
Yesterday, Jerry told Chiron that he, Carmen, and I needed to finish our quest and get Jason back to The Camp. Everyone (except Jason, who was just sitting there saying nothing) was against it. Carmen explained to them our prophecy, and how we need to fulfill it.
Piper reminded us that there's still the last line 'Accompany each to fight the ground.' She thins it might mean that we need to cooperate with all the campers to fight Gaea.
I said the prophecy states that only the lost and the found can fight the ground. I'm not exactly sure what I meant by that.
This continued for about an hour. Finally, Jason spoke up and said, "Why don't we just wait and see?"
Leo asked, "What do you mean?"
"I mean, just keep building the Argo II. Just keep going until something happens."
"Are you saying that we should sit and wait?" Clarisse asked indredulously.
"We're not just sitting and waiting. We're building the ship."
Jerry said, "But what about our quest?"
Jason took a deep breath. "If nothing happens within 2 weeks, then I will come with you."
This was met with a barrage of shouts.
"What?!"
"We need you!"
"You're one of the seven!"
Jason said, "Yes, it's because I'm one of the seven that I have to do this. Hera said that I'm a bridge remember? I don't know where The Camp is, and they," he gestured toward us, "are willing to take me there. I could explain the situation and start the unity of the Greeks and Romans right then and there."
Silence.
Finally, Annabeth sighed. "Well... I guess we can try that..."
The other councellors were still not speaking.
Carmen cleared her throat. "We're willing to give the 2-week thing a try, don't we?" She flashed Jerry and I a look that practically shouts 'YES!'
We nodded hastily.
"Well, now that that's settled," Chiron said, "back to your activities."
~~~
2 weeks later...
(Still Percy's PoV)

Carmen, Jerry, Jason, and I we're saying our goodbyes on Half-Blood Hill. I was disappointed that I had only gained a little memories since I was awake from the infirmary. And I thought familiar surroundings would help even a little bit.
I hugged her awkwardly. I'm pretty sure she was my girlfriend, but with Carmen, I'm feeling confused about my feelings for them.
Something tells me this was the work of some godly (goddessly?) being.
Our little group started walking down the hill. Chiron was waving us goodbye. A typical camp send-off by your typical centaur.
We were in the exact spot where we were attacked by the monsters. I felt a shift in the ground. The others noticed it too.
"Did you guys feel that?" I asked.
Jerry hesitated. "It felt like..."
"Like..." Carmen tralied off.
Suddenly the ground burst apart. Dirt shot out of the surface, and then came Terra. She was pale (paler than usual). She looked very angry. And on her chest was a clear spot of gold. Ichor. I remembered my dream, of me stabbing her...
She snarled, "Since you refused me, I shall take you by force!"
The dirt rose off the ground. Carmen drew her bow; Jerry unsheathed his sword; Jason held his gladius; and I uncapped Riptide. I could sense that Chiron was trying to get to us, but some invisible force was stopping him.
The dirt swirled around us. Jason controlled the winds and hit the swirling dirt. It scattered all around, then came back again.
Terra cackled. "It will take more to defeat me, son of Jupiter."
By now, practically the whole camp was trying to reach us, but can't.
My friends and I charged towards Terra. More dirt rose off the ground and protected her from our blows. Then it exploded outward, sending us flying.
I stood up, and saw that Jerry was struggling to get the dirt covering him. Carmen and Jason were the same.
I was the only one not being covered.
The huge swirling mass of dirt shot in my direction, then sealed me in from the outside world. I screamed, I slashed my sword against the dirt walls, but it wouldn't break.
The space was enclosing. I could feel the familiar sense of fear whenever I'm in an enclosed space. How I hate claustrophobia.
The dirt was within inches of me. My feet were stuck together because the dirt was holding them in place. The dirt crawled all over my body. I struggled to escape, but the dirt just squeezed me tighter.
The seal of dirt above my head vanished, and I saw Jerry, Carmen, and Jason fighting Terra, who was single-handedly defending herself. She saw me and smiled. "My work here is done."
She waved her hand, and the earth opened. I fell through the earth.
The last thing I heard before blacking out was Terra's terrifying laugh.
~~~
Hope you like it! Tell me what you think please!?

Amazing,poor Percy

Teriffic, amazing, outstanding, I am at a loss of words.

QUESTION: How many chapters are there?
