Sara
I bowed. "What is it?"
Apollo and Artemis pointed to Oceanus. My mouth opened as he dissolved into water.
"That is what'll happen. Except you'll have to do it yourself." Artemis said coldly.
I felt everyone stare at me, boring their eyes towards me. I felt for the sage. Artemis gave me a dagger.
"When you die, everyone will be at peace. No demititan is allowed to live." Artemis said. "If they do live, they'll turn into a titan them self. We don't want any more titans ever! Nor demititans!"
I gulped, and nodded. I shakily ate the sage leaf. Feeling braver, I held the dagger, shakily.
"Sara, don't do this." Annabeth said, sniffling.
"Don't do this!" cried the little kids.
Lucas lowered my arm, and Chieko disarmed me. Cylena and Alec shook their heads sadly.
"You are great friends, all of you." Tears rolled down my cheeks. "Don't get me wrong! You are all great." I took my dagger back from Chieko. Even Apollo and Artemis were beginning to tear up.
"Please, Sara!" Lucas threw his arms around me.
I gently pushed him away. "Yes, you were like a brother."
"You're the last demititan on earth," Alec said. "And Celestia's best friend."
I nodded. "Please, stop. I know what I'm doing." The sun began to rise. "This is for the world's own good."
"No!" All the demititans said.
"Good-bye, all of you." I said. Then I took my dagger bravely. "Don't forget me."
I closed my eyes, and stabbed myself, entering eternal darkness.

We were all crying. Sara... she was gone forever. Everyone cried on each other's shoulders.
"Guys, look!" Helina said.
We all opened our eyes, wiping tears away. We stared in awe as Sara slowly dissolved into seafoam. The bubbles slowly began to rise in a bubbly form of Sara. She smiled, and waved good-bye. Then the bubbles separated, shining orange as the sun rose higher. The bubbles rose all the way into Zeus' domain.
All of us demigods linked our arms together, looking up as Sara's spirit went into the clouds. It was a sad, yet happy moment. Sara would be at peace. That's what she wanted.
"Follow your heart." Eliane Cerchiari
