(AN: I love this series of books so I decided to write a fanfic about it! I started writing this when I had just finished 'The Lightning Thief" so it won't have any reference to "The Sea of Monsters" because I just started reading that today.)
A Lightning Thief fanfic
Ch. 1- Iris-Message
I'm so excited! It's almost the end of the school year! Now, I know what you're thinking: "But, Annabeth, you love school! Your nickname is Wise Girl for crying out loud!" But I'm really excited to see Percy again! (If you're wondering, yes I got all A's duh! And, yes, my stepmom and stepsisters were terrible again so I've decided I'll stay at Camp Half-Blood for the rest of my training years and write my father.) Just then, I thought I was hallucinating because I heard "Annabeth!" in Percy's voice behind me. On instinct, I turned around and what I saw made me scream. There was Percy. He Iris-Messaged me!
"Percy!" I yelled and ran to his image. "Hi, what's wrong? Is everything all right?"
"Annabeth, calm down. I'm fine. I just wanted to say hi."
"Oh." I said relieved, but angry. "You scared me! I thought a monster came for you!" I exclaimed.
"No, Annabeth, I just wanted to say hi to you because you're my friend. And I was getting bored."
"I'd slap you if you were here."
"What did I do?"
"Never mind. That's not important! So how was your year so far?" I asked changing the subject.
"Pretty good. I'm going to this prep school. I made a new friend." He told me, his eyes lighting up. I liked when they did that. I'm glad he made a new friend. But I couldn't help but feel a little jealous.
'That's great!" I said giving him a fake smile. Unfortunately, he noticed.
"What's wrong?" He asked me, his voice sounding concerned.
"Nothing." I lied. "Why?"
"Oh, you just looked sad for a second. So, how's your year?" He finally asked me.
"Eh, the usual. Me getting straight A's, my stepmom and stepsisters tormenting me. They thing I have like a disease or something! Can you believe it? Just because my mom happens to be Athena, a powerful goddess doesn't mean I'm cursed!" I yelled, probably over exaggerating.
"Whoa, Annabeth, calm down!" He exclaimed at my little outburst.
"I'm sorry Percy. I just really don't like it when people treat me like that."
"Trust me, I know exactly where you're coming from." He told me sincerely.
A moment of silence passed. Suddenly I heard a beeping noise.
"Oh! We're running out of time! I'll see you in a few days. Take care of yourself. I yelled after his fading face. "Bye Percy!" I yelled one last time as his picture faded away.
Okay I'm bored. I get bored very easily which is why I wanted a quest so bad. I turned on the National Geographic Channel to get my mind off of everything.
(AN: so what did you think of the first chapter?)
