A growling sound caught Percy 's attention and he looked to where the Minotaur stood, the axe reflecting the fire close by. "Finally a familiar face around here!" Percy stated, his sword ready for battle. The Minotaur grunted and charged, his axe in the air ready to slice the demigods head in half. Percy fell out of the way, barely able to stay on his feet. "Oh no you don't, I would like to keep my head. I have a family to help fight IN ANOTHER BLOODY WAR!" He yelled and drove his blade into the monsters chest, while still on the ground. He lay there for a moment longer, realising his situation. He had no means of contacting his family, for all he knows the war has started. Time felt different in Tartarus, so for all he knew he could have been there for a month.
Percy groaned as he stood to his feet again. He knew he had to rest, a cave caught his eye, it would be good enough shelter and logically if someone were to enter the sound would be magnified and he would wake up...logically speaking of course.

Oh how he wished Annabeth was here, but she's not. After what she did? No! Thalia might be of help here. Kicking everyone's ass!

"Tartarus sucks!" Percy groaned. He thought back to how Nico had to go through here alone.p and he was sure that being a child of Hades did not give any special perks. Percy frowned. During their quest to stop Gaea, when Percy and Annabeth fell into Tartarus, everyone was so worried, and then ecstatic when they returned...alive. But what about Nico? Off course Hazel was worried about him,  being his sister and all, but not much else.

As he approached the mouth of the cave Percy was ambushed, and then black.
