This is my first ever Percy Jackson and the Olympians story, so be nice. Not really, because I don't care if you leave a mean review. Im already hated by the whole 8th grade, and most of the 7th grade (my own grade), so a few more people hating me wont really make a difference in my mind. I just say flamers and those kinds of people are jealous because they don't have a life. Sorry, just my opinion. That, and im in a bad mood right because I want to read the second book, The Sea of Monsters, and I was supposed to get it from the library today, but they didn't have it.
BUT, I still might get it tomorrow because my mom is taking me to wal-mart to look for it, and she said she might go to Sams and look for it. believe me, I get impatient when it comes to books.
And because I only read the first book, Im not that good and have no idea what happens after Percy returned to Camp Half-Blood after the whole "You stole Zeus's Lightning Bolt" thing. So yeah.
Please review this story even though I doubt anyone will read it, and I think it's gonna fail!
Btw, I do not own 'Percy Jackson and the Olympians'
"Percy Jackson and the Olympians" belong to Rick Riordan.
IM MOVIN ON
I sat on my bed in the Poseidon cabin, alone. It had been years sense I left Camp Half-Blood. It had been too dangerous, even for me. in the state of depression the I was in, I kept the lights out, and door locked. I want to be left alone. I wasn't really sure why I was depressed though… I was deep in thought. Remembering the past, and my first little adventure when i first found out I was Son of Poseidon. I remember how loyal my REAL friends, Grover and Annabeth, were and still are. I would never say it out loud, but I secretly like Annabeth. She was pretty back then, but now, she was like looking at a sun setting over the mountains with a gentle breeze, soft clouds, a small stream running along, and a Bald Eagle flying over the beutyful Rocky Mountains in Colorado.
But I never told anyone, not even her. I know I would just end up getting into trouble, even just by saying I like her. Geez, these rules they have drive me nuts. I sighed, and thought about the way I thought Hades had stolen the Lightning Bolt, and all the ugly monsters I had to fight. With Annabeth and Grove by my side.
I'd been here for years, I know all the faces, and really, I wish they would stop calling me 'The hero' and stop telling all the newbie's about how I made the water squirt out of the toilet on my first day in camp. That was at least 10 years ago! or, something like that…. and yet, the Ares cabin just kept bringing it up. It wasn't like I MEANT to do that, is just happened! But either way, I wanted to just be a normal kid here. As normal as a half-blood could be, that is. There were so many kids here who never had to look death in the eyes and tell it to go jump in a hole and burn. Or spray it with toilet water. Which ever way, im tired of being called 'hero'.
im not gonna go break the laws, or do something that would consider me evil or a bad guy, i just want to live as long –however long a half-blood can- in peace! Was that really too much to ask for? or at least, a day without getting calling a hero or having some little kid staring all big-eyed at me and saying something stupid like "it's da kid who saw Hades and he got the lightning bolt back from Hades", then me snapping, "It wasn't Hades who stole the Lighting Bolt! Come on! Don't you know the history!"…that happened before too. And oh, the trouble I got in after that. But that's a different story.
Outside my cabin, I could see Annabeth greeting a new kid. Whoever this new girl was, she looked like she was five and still needed to drink milk from a bottle. But then again, I thought all the new kids looked like that. Grover made his way over to where Annabeth was, and started talking to the little girl, then he ran off somewhere. Where, I don't know. I wish I could go on another little adventure. They were never really that big, ever sense Zeus got over the fact that Dad had a son after that law or whatever was made. Im getting off track….why was I thinking about the Big Three….? I snapped out of my confusing thought when I saw Chiron galloping toward Annabeth and whoever the Newbie was, with Grover following right behind him.
I hadn't noticed the fact the smaller girl was bleeding deeply from her arm, looked ready to pass out. Maybe that's why I thought she looked like she should still be drinking milk from a baby bottle…..im getting off track again. Darn it.
I saw Chiron look intently at the cut while Annabeth calmed the little girl. Why hadn't I noticed her crying….and why was she staying dry when it was raining….oh no! don't tell me Dad broke the law again! Zeus will surely kill someone if he finds out that Poseidon had ANOTHER kid! And now I would have to share my cabin. Awww. Though…I must say it gets kinds lonely in here….i was so lost in my thoughts on how Zeus was going to somehow find a way to punish ME because of this, that I hadn't noticed Grover leave and start heading toward my cabin. That was, until he burst open the door and scare the life outta me.
"Grover! Have you ever heard of knocking?" I snapped. Geez, I hate it when people do that. Sure, come right in! I might be changing my underwear, I don't care! Wait, wasn't my door locked? Or did I THINK I locked it, when I didn't….or did Annabeth use her invisibility cap to sneak in here and unlock when I sat down? But then how would she get back out?
"Chiron needs you." Grover panted. Darn. I was about to ask if he was just gonna stand there and ask for an empty soda can. Does that even make sense? I shrugged and followed him into the rain, the whole time I stayed dry. I love being able to stay dry all the time. But sometimes getting wet does feel good…and so does breathing underwater, but I can do that anytime.
"Hi. See any new monsters trying to kill me lately?" I waved to Annabeth, whoever the new girl was, and Chiron. But why I said what I did, I will never understand. The new girl looked a little frightened, but then….curious? im not sure what her expression was.
"Aren't you the kid who took the Lightning Bolt from Zeus? In that story?" she asked. Man, I wish they never added that to the 'Greek Mythology text books."
"Yes, but I wish they got it right. It WASN'T me who stole Zeus's Lightning Bolt, and it wasn't Hades!" I raised my voice a little louder then I wanted to. There's this other girl here, named Anie, who's a stinkin stalker! She hears my voice from like, a mile away, and somehow knows EVERYTHING about me! Everything! She somehow know my medical record, the names of the monsters I fought, and places I've been, the dates I was sick and what I was sick with, how many time I tripped during meal times, Everything! I looked around to make sure my stalker wasn't around. I had a feeling she wa just gonna pop up somewhere….like she always does. "HIYA!"
I jumped. There she was. behind me. I swear, every time.
"Will you STOP doing that!" I snapped, turning toward her, only to have the little brat grab the sides of my face and kiss my mouth. I pushed her off me so hard she fell flat on her back. Annabeth was laughing. My face turned red.
"Can I please-"
"Percy…" Chiron's voice was low in that im-warning-you kind of way. Darn it. he knew I was going to ask if I could slap Anie or something. Then I smelled something.
"What smells like chocolate chip cookies?" I asked.
"Will you worry about what smells like cookies later?" Annabeth sounded annoyed now.
"But I like cookies…."
"Everyone likes cookies."
"Not cookie-haters!"
"And how many cookie-haters do you know?"
"Uhhh…..Vegetarians!"
"Those are people who don't eat meat, Seaweed Brain!"
"What if they were chocolate meat cookies?"
"Those don't even exist!"
"They could!"
"They don't!"
"Says you!"
"Shut up!"
"You shut up!"
"BOTH OF YOU SHUT UP!" Grover shouted over the cookie-argument me and Annabeth were having.
"Percy, I think you might be getting a new room Chiron stated. As soon as he said that, my throat started to hurt. Odd, I thought
"Wont that make Zeus wanna kill me even more then he did when he thought I took his Lightning Bolt?" gee. That was smart. Go ahead and scare the little girl to death.
"It might, but that's not the point. As you can clearly see, she's not getting wet, and it's pouring." Chiron stated.
"Soon to be storming like crazy sense Zeus is gonna be mad."
"Stop scaring her!"
"Im scaring her?"
"Yes!"
"Woops."
"She's daughter of Poseidon and YOU are in charge of teaching what to look out for, and all that stuff. And showing her around camp." Chiron finished.
"But I get lost going to the pavilion. Why cant Annabeth show her around the camp?" I begged. I didn't want to have some crying kid following me, AND Zeus trying kill me at the same time!
"Fine. you AND Annabeth will show her around camp." Chiron declared. There was no arguing now.
"And by that you mean im going to be doing all the work, and….your gone." Chiron left. Darn. Now I have to walk around here, showing some kid the camp, and have Annabeth following me and pointing out all my mistakes.
"Lets go." Annabeth turned and started to walk toward the lake. I love the lake. That where I can hide on any of the times I get in trouble, or if we're for some reason playing hide 'n' seek. I took the lead so that if Chiron was watching from somewhere, it would at least look like I wasn't slacking. But half-way to the lake, it started to thunder, and the sky got really dark. I knew Zeus was going to find out, get mad at Poseidon, and all sorts of stuff like that would happen. I should be glad I was walking the speed I was. the very minute I put a foot on the dock, a hug bolt of lightning –and I mean huge- struck the ground in front of me. I had a feeling it was Zeus's Master Bolt. If I was one more inch on the dock, I would have been hit by it. and then I would've died, even if I have the curse of Achilles.
the electricity from it made me go flying backwords. Now that, I knew wasn't just nature. Zeus meant for that one to do that. Thinking quickly, I grabbed the girls' hands, and started to drag them back toward the cabins. Annabeth wasn't getting wet anymore sense I was touching her, but I could tell she wasn't like the fact that I was. all well. We started to run toward the cabins, but the storm just kept getting worse until we could barely see each other. Apparently, I ran strait into a poll. Shocking. Shaking it off the bet I could, I kept running. I didn't try to find Athena's cabin, I just ran strait to mine. Bursting the door open, i let go of Annabeth and the new girl. We were all panting.
I hadn't ran like in a LONG time. We all fell backwords onto my bed.
"Good goin, Wise Girl."
"What?"
"Shouldn't you have known that storm was coming as soon as it started raining harder, and Chiron said she's the daughter of POSEIDON? Which is one of the BIG THREE, which ARENT ALOUD TO HAVE KIDS?" Well, at least I think someone had to see that coming.
"Im not a Weather woman." She stated.
"I never said you were. I said you were a Wise Girl."
"Shut up, Seaweed Brain." I listened to her. She sounded mad. I could hear the rain outside. It sounded nice. That is, if you don't think about the fact it's raining and storming like this because Zeus is beyond furious. (A/N: well, it only took 4 days, but I read the other Percy Jackson books. So now this will be easier to write, not to mention the fact I thought almost the whole thing in my mind!)
"Does that happen a lot?" the new girl asked in a small voice. I just realized I didn't even know her name.
"Only to me. Knowing how Zeus is one of the gods who hate me, he shouldn't hurt YOU. Wait, whats your name anyway?" I asked. Man, my throat was really starting to hurt now.
"Sara. My name is Sara Shaveren." She said.
"Im Annabeth Chase. I should have introduced myself earlier, but it was a hectic morning." Annabeth sighed.
"hectic morning? What'd I miss?" I asked.
"Other then breakfast and your early morning class?" Annabeth stated.
"Oh….i forgot to set that alarm Tyson made me again…"
"Yeah. forgot."
"Hey, it not my fault I was thinking about y-YAMS! Yes, I was thinking about yams."
"Why?"
"I dunno. Why was I the one who thought Hades had Zeus's Master Bolt? It's just one of those things you'll never know."
"You thought Hades took it because he's the God of Death and you thought the prophecy meant Hades." She pointed out, sitting up. "Introduce yourself, Seaweed Brain."
"What? Oh right. Im Pursues Jackson. But call me Percy."
"Wasn't Pursues the name of the first hero to live past the age of sixteen?" Sara asked.
"I think so…." Hey, I've hit my head so many times in the past few years im surprised I still remember my own name! just then, which didn't really shock me that much, lightning hit the roof of my cabin, and the power went out. The only light was from the fountain.
It was then that I realized something: Sara was never REALLY claimed as Poseidon. The trident never appeared above her head. So, why was Zeus so angry? And I thought the Big Three were allowed to children again because of a promise I made them make on the River Styx…..what would make Zeus this mad?
Well, for you peoples who read this and want to know what happens next, or just want to be nice, and are bored and read this just because it's there, let me warn you: I tend to update kinds fast, but the chapters are short.
And I know this was kinda studid chapter in my opinion, but all well. It's only chapter 1. the plot will grow, and I hope it will do as good as some of my Invader Zim stories.
Please Review.
Give me a bad review, and my only reply will be "Go get a life and stop picking on my stories, jerk."
But I can be quiet nice and fun to be around, as long as you don't get on my bad side. really. It's not fun to be on my bad side. I tend to mock people sometimes too, so if I mock you, sorry. Its just a habit. I have weird habits. Uhhh….im getting off subject…..
PLEASE REVIEW! REVIEWERS GET TACOS!
