Percy PoV
I was woken up by Hermes, who threw a book at me and teleported away. I chuckled and stood up. I walked over to my closet to get dressed. I had just put on my socks and jeans on, when there was a knock at my door. I walked over and opened the door and came face to face with Annabeth. She noticed our proximity and my lack of clothing and gave a ridiculously deep blush.
"I-I uhh…"
I held a chuckled and raised a hand. "It's alright, slow down. What do you need, young one?"
She shook her head, "I didn't know where to meet you this morning…"
I looked at my watch, noticing the fact that it was 6:30, "You do realize you're half an hour early?"
She blushed dragged her eyes off my bare torso, "You never told us where to meet…"
I sheepishly rubbed the back of my head, "I must've forgot. Meet me at the mess pavilion, let everyone else know."
She nodded and ran off. I finished getting dressed. I wore a pair of cuffed blue jeans, a white v neck, and a pair of white vans. I brushed my teeth and combed my hair, before I grabbed my wallet and sunglasses. I walked out of the big house and made my way to the dining pavilion. I saw a few campers milling around, getting ready for their day. I grabbed a plate and loaded up on eggs and bacon. I sat down at the Poseidon table and noticed everyone staring at me.
I dropped my fork and sighed, "Why are you staring at me?"
A kid at the Athena table spoke up, "Why aren't you sacrificing to the gods?"
I laughed. "I raised many of the gods on Olympus, and I'm close with many others. Tell me, why would I sacrifice to people who view me as their father or sibling?"
The same boy spoke up again. "There's no way that's possible, you couldn't have raised any of the gods! The ancient laws!"
I laughed again. "Because of the circumstances of my birth, I'm the grey zone in the Ancient laws. As a matter of fact, I raised your mother. Is that any way to talk to your grandfather?"
He looked shocked before shaking himself out of his stupor. "Then prove it!"
I sighed, "What do you want me to do? Get Athena to tell you herself?"
"..."
"..."
"Yes?"
I shook my head before calling out, "Athena, dear! I need you for a second!"
I was greeted almost immediately with a bright flash, and suddenly Athena was standing behind me. She gave me a hug and kissed me on the cheek. "Hello dad, what do you need?"
I pointed at the boy, "My grandson is being a prick and won't believe that I raised you."
She smiled softly before looking over at the boy. "What he's saying is true, Malcolm. Zeus doesn't have enough brain cells to be a father. I was floundering, a joke of Olympus. Percy found me crying at the beach and took me under his wing. He raised me into a proper goddess."
The sky rumbled with thunder and I noticed a few nervous flinches. I looked up at the sky and called out, "Shut up you narcissistic prick, you know it's true!"
The sky quieted down and everyone relaxed. Finished the last of my food while Athena spoke to her children. When I finished and stood up, Athena came over to me. She pulled me into a hug, which I returned she mumbled something into my chest and I had to pull her out and have her repeat it. "What'd you say?"
"I said be safe, okay? I love you, dad."
I smiled softly and pulled her into another hug. "You realize that I haven't been bested in a fight yet. I'll do my best, my little owl. I love you too."
I heard a few 'awws' and we pulled away and she flashed off, to who knows where. Once everyone was finished, I checked my watch. 6:45. I everyone met me outside the pavillion. Annabeth wore a pair of black yoga pants and a grey Stanford hoodie. Zoe wore her usual silver hunting garb. Thalia wore black combat boots, torn black jeans, a Green Day t-shirt, and a leather jacket with studs on the shoulders. Clarisse wore a pair of skinny jeans, combat boots, a grey tank top with a camo jacket.
Zoe spoke up. "If you're so powerful, boy, then why don't you just flash us to wherever we need to go?"
I glared at her and she paled. "Strike one. What'd I say about sexist remarks? I can't flash us there because the location is blocked off, I'm not a god, and my teleportation abilities will be blocked for the first twenty four hours of the quest."
Thalia looked shocked. "You're not a god? How are you so powerful?"
I grinned and put on my sunglasses to cope for the rising sun. "I'm the first demigod to ever exist. There weren't any rules relating to creating demigods, like there are now. I'm 97% god, and 3% mortal. This gives me a form of immortality similar to the hunters, just much more powerful. I was born 50/50, god and mortal, but the power of my ichor overwhelmed my mortal blood, and I managed to stabilize my body at this point, to avoid the ancient laws. I was too powerful and it scared Zeus. I had the power of a god, without any of the limitations. As you know, the first born of every entity is very powerful. I'm more powerful than all of the second generation gods and many first, and my prowess with weapons leaves me in a position that I could beat any god on the council. To avoid anymore demigods like me, there was a rule put in place. A god cannot summon anymore than 10% of their power when making a demigod. This way, you're the opposite of me. Each of you have roughly 10-15% ichor in your veins. That's where you get your power and godly senses from."
The daughter of Athena, had the same glint Athena used to have in her eyes when she learned something new. Zoe spoke up though, cutting Annabeth off before she had a chance to speak. "Whilst you may be powerful, there are many beings more powerful than you. Your arrogance will be your downfall."
I laughed, much to her chagrin. "It's not arrogance, child. I've bested foes beyond your wildest dreams. I've traversed Tartarus to rescue the Elder Cyclopes. I've faced against the Primordials themselves. It's fact."
She looked at me shocked. "You weren't with the gods in Tartarus! The big three were!"
I shook my head. "That is not the case. I went with Hades and Poseidon. Zeus was too scared. While they unchained the Cyclopes and Hekatonkheires, I fought off the hordes of monsters. Zeus never slayed Kampe or Typhon, that was me."
Zoe shot me an incredulous look. I spoke before she had a chance to say anything. "I'll explain more once we're on the road. I have transportation waiting at the base of the hill."
We crested the hill, and on the other side was a tesla semi truck. I was shot a few curious glances, but they followed me anyways. When we reached the trailer, I put my hand on a black pad. A segment of the trailer wall opened, letting us into the trailer. The inside had white carpet and glossy black walls and ceiling. The lights were LED strips, running around the edge of the ceiling. There was a small living room, consisting of an L couch, two chairs, and a TV. Past the living room and entrance, was a kitchen with marble counters and heated tile floors. The fridge and pantry was fully stacked with frozen foods and drinks. Beyond that was a short hallway. On the left wall was a bunk bed, being blocked off by a curtain. On the right was a bathroom and shower. Past that was a door. The door led to the master bedroom, which consisted of two bedside tables, a king sized bed, a TV, and a closet.
The first person to break from the silence was Clarisse. "Wow. Why do you own this?"
I smiled. "I asked Hermes, he just gave it to me. You can use the tech, the entire trailer is plated in Celestial Bronze. The truck is driven by an AI system, so we can all relax. There's monster alert systems, so you can sleep easy. You can decide the sleeping arrangements. I'll sleep on the couch."
Soon after everyone went to their beds and put their packs down, the trailer started driving off. We sat in the small living room, making small talk, until Annabeth spoke up. "What's your story, Percy?"
I sighed, "I was waiting for that. That's quite the tale, if you want to hear it?"
I got vigorous nods from Clarisse, Annabeth, and Thalia. Zoe was trying to look bored, but the way she suddenly started paying attention told me she wanted to hear it too. "Alright, but first, I'm getting a drink and something to eat. Any of you want anything?"
I walked over to the kitchen with Thalia. I grabbed a Dr. Pepper, luckily Hermes had good taste and bought the glass bottles, and popped the cap off. Thalia grabbed the drinks for everyone else, and I popped two frozen pizzas into the oven. I put some queso in the microwave and grabbed a bag of tortilla chips and put it on the table. I went back into the kitchen where Thalia was getting the last of everything.
I took a drink and Thalia spoke up, "You and Clarisse are a cute couple."
I choked, sending most of the Dr. Pepper I drank out my nose. "I have no idea what you're talking about."
She looked at me with a raised eyebrow. "Really? I've seent the way you look at her when she's not looking. While you seem like a good guy so far, but don't change my mind. I might not be able to beat you, but I'd do my damnedest to put you through some pain if you hurt her."
I nodded quietly and got the rest of everything and we sat down for me to tell my story. I cleared my throat to start.
Flashback
3rd PoV
A baby's cry was sounded as a mother held her child for the first and last time. She gave her life to give birth to who would one day turn out to be the savior of the world. She closed her eyes for the last time, and gave her final breath.
The child's mother wanted to name him Perseus, and his father Poseidon upheld his lover's wish. He carried young Perseus to the Ocean, where he prayed to Pontus. He knew he couldn't properly raise a child at this point in his life, so he begged for Pontus to help him. Pontus saw the future of the Ocean rested in this boy's hands, and decided that he'd raise the boy.
Timeskip 40 years
The once child now extremely attractive man walked across the island that would one day be his, "Good morning Pontus. How are you today?"
Pontus gave a small smile, "I'm doing well, Perseus. I fear I must be the bearer of ill news. Today you leave to join the ranks of Olympus. You shall fight to end the rule of the Titans, and issue a new rule."
Percy stood there, mouth agape. "Are you serious, Pontus?"
"As serious as a blade to the gut."
They exchanged teary goodbyes, before Percy collected himself, and vapor travelled off the island to Mount Olympus. As soon as he appeared, he was confronted by the Elder Gods, who had felt a powerful presence approaching.
Hestia cracked her whip of fire, "Who are you and what is your business with us?"
He held his hands up, showing he had no weapons. "I come as an ally. I have been trained by Pontus to help end the reign of Kronos."
Hestia's eyes widened, before narrowing them again. "What is your name?"
He lowered his hands. "My name is Perseus."
Poseidon dropped his spear in shock. "P-Perseus?"
He nodded, and Poseidon rushed at him, pulling Percy into a bone crushing hug. "Oh, how you've grown!"
Percy smiled. "Of course I've grown father, it's been forty years since you sent me to Pontus."
They separated and the gods looked at them confused. Poseidon explained Percy's birth, and the gods were shocked.
Percy smiled. "While I was with Pontus, he contacted the creator. Due to my unique position, I'm immune to the ancient laws. Since I'm more than half deity, I can spend time with you immortals without any laws being broken. She created a new law because of me. I hold a power that no one should have had, so he has placed a law, stating an immortal is not allowed to summon more than 10% of their power when having relations with mortals."
The gods was taken back to the cave that held the home of the council. He was introduced to all the gods, goddesses, and other immortal allies.
Zeus, who wasn't an arrogant king yet, called my attention. "Perseus, what is your weapon?"
He summoned his trident, and their eyes filled with awe. "It was a gift from Pontus. It was created from the very heart of the sea."
Hades nodded appreciatively. "Do you have any combat training?"
"I have trained with Pontus until I could defeat him in one on one combat."
Percy was hit with a shocked silence, before Zeus cleared his throat. "I'm happy to have you on our side. Now, I want you with a god or goddess at all times to learn our ways."
Percy was immediately bombarded by females, most likely hoping to bed him. Hestia called out. "Enough! You are acting like children. Let's let Perseus choose."
Everyone slowly backed off, and Percy looked around, before he spoke. "If you'll train me, Lady Hera, I would truly appreciate it."
She looked surprised for a second, before giving me a warm smile. "Of course, Perseus. Follow me."
The pair left the room, ignoring the surprised glances thrown their way."
Percy PoV
"So, Lady Hera, as my guide, what will you show me first?"
She laughed, a beautiful sound if I say so myself, and responded. "No need for formalities, Perseus. As for the first thing I'll show you, how about the city?"
"I'd love that, Hera."
I got a smile in return and we walked off. By the end of the day I came to a startling realization. "Hera? Where will I sleep?"
She raised an eyebrow. "As your guide, you'll stay in my palace. I have many spare rooms."
I nodded, "Alright then, what's left?"
She smiled. "Dinner, at my palace."
"Then lead the way."

"Percy?"
"Yes Hera?"
I looked up and saw her with a small smile. "I have something I want to show you."
I smiled and stood from where I was seated on a balcony. "Then show me."
She grabbed my hand and started running, making me follow her. "Woah! Slow down, Hera!"
She dragged me through Olympus, giggling and laughing the entire way. After a while she let go of my hand and started running faster. She looked over her shoulder and yelled. "If you want to see it, you have to catch me!"
I gave a feral grin and sprinted after her. She ran into the woods and kept running. We eventually reached wherever she wanted to go because she stopped suddenly, causing me to run into her. She had turned around just in time for me to send us sprawling. We hit the ground and she flipped us over and we immediately got into an intense wrestling match. When we finished, she had me pinned. Hera was sitting on my waist, with her hands holding mine down above my head. We froze, and she slowly leaned down, placing a gentle kiss on my lips, one that I eagerly returned. Her hands moved from my hands to my neck, as I leaned up, using the tree behind me for support. My hands found their way to her cheeks. After a few seconds we pulled away.
I spoke, in between breaths. "That was… wow."
Hera smiled softly at me, and pulled me into another kiss. This one more heated than the last. "I've wanted to do this for so long."
"As have I, my love."
We separated again, this time Hera turned around so she was sitting in my lap, using my chest as a pillow. I finally took note of our surroundings and my jaw nearly fell in surprise. We were in a small clearing in the forest. There was a waterfall, which dropped into a spring. The clearing was filled with flowers, except for a trodden path of hardened dirt, leading to a rock platform on the edge of the spring. It was absolutely beautiful.
Hera looked up at me and snuggled further into me, her head just below my chin. "We know we like each other, what do you want to do with that?"
I wrapped my arms around her waist, "Would you do me the honor of being my girlfriend?"
She kissed me on the jaw. "Of course I would!"
I grinned, "Now that that's settled, I can finally do this."
I mist travelled us back to her palace, and pinned her to the couch. She let out a small gasp and I saw her shiver a bit. I pulled her into a heated kiss and we cuddled on the couch for a bit. We ended up falling asleep like that.

This was the final siege on Mount Othrys. Today was the day the titans would fall. All the gods were fighting, two gods per titan for the most part. Except for one. He was a whirlwind of death. He was fighting Hyperion and Iapetus. He spun his trident before slamming it into the ground, releasing a shockwave, launching the titans onto their backs. The man launched his trident at Hyperion, where it pierced his neck. Iapetus had rolled over just in time to see his brother get stabbed through the throat by the trident. He jumped to his feet and charged the man. He didn't even land a blow. The man summoned his trident back, and he launched it forward before Iapetus could react. The prongs stabbed the man with enough force to pin him to the wall twenty yards back.
Titans ran at him from all directions. All fell to his trident. Hyperion, stabbed through the throat. Iapetus, stabbed through the lungs. Astraeus, stabbed through the skull. Epimetheus, blunt force trauma to the skull. Menoitios, decapitated. The list went on and on.
The armies of Othrys were destroying the gods, who couldn't withstand such a large force. That's when a lightbulb went off in the man's head. He took off his helmet, showing the face of the titan killer. It was Perseus. He put his helmet back on and vapor travelled to the center of the army, where Atlas stood.
Percy stabbed his trident into the ground and spoke. "I challenge you, Atlas, to one on one single combat. In my defeat, you would have avenged all of your fallen brethren. In your defeat, your armies will surrender. These are my terms and conditions."
The titan let out a hearty laugh. "I accept your challenge, foolish god. Who are you?"
Percy took off his helmet again. "I am Perseus, son of Poseidon. Slayer of Hyperion, Iapetus, Astraes, Epimetheus and Menoitios. I am the feller of Kampe. I am the Protege of Pontus. And soon, I will add your name to that list."
Atlas' eyes hardened at the mention of his fallen brethren. "Lets fight, child."
Percy placed his helmet back on his head and pulled his trident from the ground. The first this he did was slam the trident into the ground, sending a shockwave that knocked everything away from him in a sixty foot radius. He waited for Atlas to regain his bearings, before he charged. He swung his trident like a bat, catching him in the ribs, launching him away from the army. He chased after him, and they were soon locked into combat, many miles away from the battle on the mountain known as Mal Lungare. They fought and swung, it was a relatively equal fight, but Atlas was growing impatient. He made a mistake and lunged at Perseus, who sidestepped and kicked Atlas in the chest, launching him backwards into the pillar of the sky. He hit the pillar with such force that it broke. The sky dropped onto Atlas' shoulders, where he struggled to hold it.
Atlas screamed at Perseus. "Free me, you disgrace!"
Percy walked up to Atlas and shoved a piece of Ambrosia in his mouth. "This is your punishment. The only reason I fed you, is so you don't fade. I would rather not have the world be flattened. Enjoy your punishment."
Percy ripped the helmet of Atlas' head and vapor travelled away. He arrived in front of the Titan's army. "Your leader is gone! What chance to do you stand? Lay down your weapons!"
They slowly but surely dropped their weapons, until not a single person had one left. Suddenly, there was a loud explosion from the top of Mount Othrys. The big three gods appeared, covered in ichor that belonged to more than just themselves.
Zeus held up the Kronos' scythe. "We are victorious! This world is ours, to rule as it should be ruled! We now stand in the age of Olympus!"

The group sat there in shocked silence, before it was broken by Annabeth. "Holy shit. How long is your title?"
I chuckled, "Too long. I haven't recited it in millennia. I-"
I was interrupted by the truck AI. "We are now parking in Cleveland, Ohio. We will recharge and be back on the road shortly."
I chuckled. "I'm going to a restaurant, would you like to join me?"
Clarisse stood up, "Sure, when are we leaving?"
"Now. Anyone else want to go?"
Zoe shook her head and went back to her bed. Annabeth said no, and Thalia didn't want to leave. I grabbed my leather jacket before I turned to Clarisse, "After you."
Clarisse and I left the trailer and she asked a question, "Where are we going to eat?"
I blushed and rubbed my neck, "I didn't think about that… What are you in the mood for?"
She laughed and bumped me with her shoulder. I noticed a tinge of pink on her cheeks but decided not to comment on it. She was silent for a second before she spoke. "I could really use a steak and fries."
I grinned, "That, I can handle."
We walked and talked, laughing at jokes, and made our way to a park. Clarisse ran to use the restroom and I waited for her.
As I was standing there, I was confronted by a group of girls. "Hey, cutie. You want to come with us?"
I looked at her bewildered. "Excuse me?"
She giggled, "We're going to the clubs, you should come with us! Let's go!"
I pulled back, "I'm alright, enjoy your evening."
She grabbed me again and pouted, "Pleeeaase?"
I tore my arm from her grasp. "No thank you, I'm waiting for someone."
Clarisse came out of the bathroom and saw me being cornered by the girl, and I saw her eyes flash with humor and something else, was that anger? Jealousy? She stormed over to me and pushed her off of me. The girl looked at Clarisse and glared. "Who the hell are you?"
Clarisse froze for a second. She looked at me then back at the girl. "His girlfriend, so fuck off."
She looked shocked before she blushed, "I-I'm sorry, I didn't know. Bye."
She ran off and Clarisse refused to make eye contact. I immediately had to tease her. "You're my girlfriend, huh?"
She blushed a deep red and muttered something that I probably wasn't supposed to hear, "I wish…"
I stopped in my tracks and she froze up, "Di - did you hear that?"
I gave a nervous grin, "I mean, I'm open to give it a shot, if you are?"
She gave a small smile, "I think I'd like that... "
I wrapped an arm around her waist, "What does that make this, our first date?"
She blushed a deep shade of red and lightly hit my arm. I chuckled, and we started walking again, "I take that as a yes."
I dropped my hand and grabbed her hand. We walked down the street, enjoying each other's presence before we came to a steakhouse. We were sat down, and our waitress took our drink orders, when she came back with our drinks and she took our food. Clarisse had the 10oz Sirloin with fries and green beans. I had the 12oz Ribeye with french fries, and coleslaw.
Clarisse took her first bite and moaned. I laughed and she blushed, "I haven't had a decent steak in two years. Actually, that was when I was in the Lotus hotel and Casino. If feels so long ago (A/N in this story, Clarisse did everything Percy did)."
My eyes bulged, "Well that's just terrible. I'm going to have to reintroduce you to the wonders of food."
Her eyes twinkled, "I like how that sounds."
We finished eating and I paid the bill. Clarisse looked at me wide eyed at the ridiculous tip I left on the table. "Why are you tipping her… how much is that!?"
I laughed, "I don't need to worry about money. While this has no effect on me, it could mean the world for someone else. That could go towards paying off their car, or a student loan. Maybe for their future. And to answer your question, ten."
She shook her head. "I've just never even seen that much money in one place."
I grinned, "It's a lot to take in, I understand. Let's head back though, I can only imagine what trouble they've gotten into."
She laughed, "Don't say it, you're going to jinx it!"
As soon as she said that, I heard a roar from the street. We looked at each other and I sighed. "I can't get a single fucking break?"
We ran outside and I saw the Nemean Lion flipping cars and sniffing around, probably looking for us. I chuckled, and Clarisse looked at me confused, "What's so funny?"
I just summoned my trident and cocked my arm back like I was throwing a javelin. I waited for the lion to roar again and I launched the trident down it's throat before it could react. Within a minute, it had disappeared into gold dust, leaving a gold/brown duster. I picked it up and turned around and saw Clarisse standing there shocked. I walked up to her and snapped my fingers in front of her face.
She broke out of her stupor and stared at me, "Did that really just happen?"
I smiled, "Yes, yes it did. Now, let's head back to the truck."
She shook her head in disbelief before grabbing my hand and we walked off.
Linebreak
"You did what?!"
I nodded at the shocked Thalia, before taking the pelt and walking into the kitchen. I turned the stove on to the highest heat. "Artemis, accept this offering."
Zoe just stared at me in disbelief. "Why did you sacrifice that? Do you know how powerful it is?"
I shrugged, "I don't need it. Artemis needs all the strength she can get, and I know that such a sacrifice would hold a substantial amount of power."
Zoe shook her head in disbelief, but I spoke before anyone else could respond. "I'm going to take a shower, start getting ready for bed. I don't want to deal with a bunch of tired teenagers tomorrow."
I headed into the bathroom and hopped in the shower. I immediately felt relaxed. I got out of the shower and was drying my head off, when I heard someone banging on the door. Suddenly I felt a cold draft that could only come from opening the bathroom door. I pulled my towel away from my head and tied it around my waist. I noticed that it was Thalia who had knocked the door open. She stood there, face a new shade of red, staring at me with her eyes bulging out of her head. She let out a high-pitched 'eep' before running to the master bedroom, which she would be sharing with Annabeth. I shrugged, and walked into the living room, where my bag was. I bent over and grabbed my bag and walked back into the bathroom. I changed into a pair of sweatpants and walked out of the bathroom.
I noticed all the girls were sitting in the living room, and I grew curious. "What's going on over here?"
Thalia looked up and blushed again, probably imagining what happened earlier. "W-we decided that we wanted to watch a movie. We'd be on this truck for the foreseeable future, and if monsters can't sense us, there's no reason to wake up early. Monsters are more active at night, anyways."
I nodded. "Sounds reasonable. What do you want to watch?"
I reached my arms to the ceiling and stretched. I could swear I heard a small noise come out of a few of the girls. I dropped my arms and sat on the couch.
Zoe cleared her throat, her blush slightly lowering. "They decided on Troy, for some reason."
I laughed a bit, "That movie is grossly inaccurate."
Annabeth cocked her head and raised an eyebrow, "And you would know, how?"
I grinned, "Simple. I was there. Who do you think taught Achilles?"
Clarisse just groaned, "Of course you have. Now let's just watch the damn movie."
I just shrugged and leaned back into the couch. We were watching for about 15 minutes and I suddenly thought of something. "Wait a minute, you do know why this movie is rated R, right?"
Clarisse shot me a sidelong glance, "Violence, right?"
I let out a snort, "Definitely, just keep watching."
Annabeth started reaching for the case, so I used the moisture in the air to grab it and it flew to my hand. She gave me a light glare, but went back to the movie. I leaned back, using Clarisse's lap as a pillow, and closed my eyes. I acted like I was sleeping, but I wanted to stay awake for their reactions at a certain scene. I laid there with my eyes closed. After a while, Zoe spoke, "Wait, why is he hiking her dress up? Wait a minute… OH FUCK!"
I heard a multitude of responses. Thalia let out a sharp gasp, Annabeth made a little 'eep!' noise, and what surprised me the most had to be Clarisse. She gripped my hair in her hand and placed her other hand on my chest. I didn't know how to react, so I just stayed like that. I planned on actually falling asleep until I felt an empty bottle hit my stomach. I rolled over, acting like I was still partially asleep. I cracked an eye and groaned, "What do you want?"
Zoe made a noise, "Why didn't you tell us?"
I laughed, "Why would I? You obviously didn't mind it that much since I don't have a blade pointed at me. It was part of the movie, get over it."
She grumbled before looking away. I stretched my arms above my head again, before laying my head back down on Clarisse's lap. She ran her fingers through my hair and I slowly fell asleep to the feeling.
I looked around and noticed I was in a dreamscape. I quickly looked to the side and saw Ares standing there. "What the hell do you think you're doing to my daughter?"
I stared at him in deadpan, "Treating her with respect and doing my best by her. Soon I'm going to start giving her private training. Why do you ask?"
He seemed stunned for a second before he released a sigh. "I'm trusting that you won't take advantage of my daughter?"
I shook my head, "Wouldn't dream of it."
He nodded. "Okay, good. By the way, I just wanted to show you some other dreams your quest mates are having."
I was suddenly transported into another dream, this time, when I looked down I couldn't see myself. I heard gasping and moaning, and when I turned around I froze in shock. I was in Thalia's dream we were doing, ahem, something. She was screaming my name and I knew that if I wasn't in a dream, I'd be a deep shade of red. Suddenly I was in another dream, and the daughter of Athena, was making out with me in the dream. I felt a flash of weightlessness, before I was dropped into another dream. This one was of Zoe and I in the woods. I was leaning against a tree, and she was leaning on my chest. I heard her mutter in her dream, "This is just a dream, a little taste won't hurt." I felt like I was being thrown, and I appeared in Clarisse's dream. We were hand in hand, walking through the reef around my island. The dream faded to black, and I woke up. I stood up, noticing that Clarisse's lap had been replaced with a pillow. I sighed and shook my head.
This was going to be an awkward day.
Hiya, my life is stupid busy. Hope you enjoyed!
