[She grits her teeth at the 'fighting elsewhere' remark, because she doesn't want to get her hopes up too much. And she's not sure she wants anyone else stuck in this place, not when everything's so up in the air and frantic at the moment.]

[Annabeth wants Percy with her and she doesn't - because who knows what's happening, but she's not so fond of this potential separation. Escape one hellhole, end up in another. Someone out there is amused, but it's not her. She prefers Percy at her back, but she likes him safe, too.]

[One of the aliens breaks towards them; Annabeth adjusts her grip on her sword.] Yeah, that's about when I got here. Sounds like we're the first crew.

[And she lunges to meet the alien halfway.]

[ if they really are amongst the first, he doesn't know what to think of the implications. luckily, the attack saves him from contemplating too much and he's back to sticking to his instincts as he fights. there's a second alien which comes to join its companion and nico focuses on getting its attention away from where annabeth's fighting with the first.

he shadow travels until he's up close and personal with the alien, giving it a nice elbow to the stomach before he can start using his sword. sadly, the alien doesn't quite go down so easily as he'd imagined ( and nico is far from a powerhouse ), so his arm is quickly caught and twisted behind his back.

the teen grits his teeth from the pain, but that doesn't stop him from trying to kick his way free. if only he could summon an extra pair of skeletal hands — for now, he might just have to fall back onto a disappearing trick again if all else fails. ]

[She makes quick work of the alien, her strength taking it by surprise and letting her knock it out in a few easy movements.]

[When she turns, her eyes land on Nico and his predicament. She knows he can shadow travel away, but she also knows he's probably exhausted himself with that option. So Annabeth rushes in from the side, slamming her body into the alien; it doesn't knock them over, but it does loosen the alien's grip enough for Annabeth to jerk her weapon in and free up Nico's arm. She swings her leg right after, aiming for it's groin.]

[It occurs to her midswing that maybe the groin isn't as sensitive a target as she's used to.]
