HEY GUYS! So, I started this story a loooong time ago, and I decided to start posting it. I will write for it as often as I can, and I will update as often as possible too. I also need a new title for it. It's curently called "Betrayed", but nobody really gets betrayed by anybody. When I titled it, I had a different story the direction was going. So please review with new title ideas? Thanks and ENJOY! :)

"Perseus Jackson," Zeus boomed."You have been accused of assisting Gaea in the war. How do you plead?"

"Not guilty." I stated honestly, as I have been for nearly a week now.

He looked me up and down. "Are you sure you don't want to answer truthfully?"

I glared. "I am answering truthfully. I took no part in her plans."

"Answer truthfully now, and your punishment will be lightened."

"Okay. I admit it!" I yelled loud enough so every god present would listen. There was a collective gasp. "I admit that you, Lord Zeus, are an arrogant boneheaded-"

He cut me off. "I am your king god!"

What did I try to tell him? He's an over-dramatic, self-centered, idiot. "I didn't vote for you!" I yelled in a bad British accent.

"Percy-" my father started to warn. I shrugged him off and decided I'd continue with my approach. What can I say? I'm reckless.

Zeus look baffled. "What are you talking about? You don't vote for kings."

"Well how did you become king then?" I asked as I continued my Monty Python accent.

Unfourtanetly, Zeus decided to get back to business. "Stop this foolishness! The council will vote. Only the council."

"Why? Because you know Hades and Hestia would side with me?" The look on his face told me I was correct. But he quickly wiped it clean.

"All in favor of punishment to the boy?" I watched as seven hands go up. I take inventory. Zeus, Aphrodite, Ares, Athena, Dionysus, Demeter, and Hephaestus. "Those who oppose?" My father, Hermes, Hera, and the twin archers.

"Perseus Jackson, the council had decided you deserve punishment-"

"As a council, yes you did. However,I think you should go deeper into the individual voters."

"What the Hades are you talking about?" Hades grumbled something behind me. Probably about his name being used as a curse.

"Let's look at the gods on your side." I suggest. "Lord Zeus, you hate me simply because my dad broke the oath. Lord Ares probably still as a grudge against me because I beat him at age twelve." Said god growled. "Mr. D figures getting rid of me will make is punishment in Camp Half-Blood much less annoying. Lady Athena hates me because of her rivalry with my dad, and because I'm dating her daughter. Lady Aphrodite no doubt has some kind of tragic love story about Annabeth and I. However, I'm sure Lord Hephaestus and Lady Demeter have good reasons. I don't feel like there's any kind of hatred between either of them and myself."

"As for my side, well, my dad is my dad. Lord Hermes no doubt has his own good reason. Lady Hera, the woman who forced me into this entire thing in the first place, sided with me. Either she believes me, or she's trying to save her reputation. How often does Lady Artemis side with a boy? Probably not often. But in this case she did. And Lord Apollo? He's the flippn' god of truth."

The gods looked around as they thought about what I'd just said, however, Zeus ignored my rant. "Any last requests?" he boomed. I thought for a minute about using a witty comment or two, but that wouldn't help my case. There was no way out of this predicament. I might as well use my last request before they revoke it.

"Give me a week to say goodbye to everyone." I request.

"One day." Zeus says.

"One week. I can't say goodbye to everyone I care about in one day."

The king god huffs. "All in favor of giving the traitor a whole week?" Those who opposed my punishment raised their hands. As did Athena, Aphrodite, Demeter, and Hephaestus.

"Very well." A large timer appeared above his throne. A small buttonless timer appeared in my hand. "You have one week. Not a second more. Your time starts now." Both timers started at the same time.

I turned and bolted out of the throne room, and down into the streets of New York. I raced to my apartment.

Soooo... Yeah. That's the first chapter of my story. Umm... ten reviews and I'll update tomorrow? I don't usually request reviews, but I don't get a lot. There's a PJO/HP crossover I'm working on. I like characters to say in character, so if there's anyone familliar with British slang/terminology, I'd really appreciate some help when I'm writing from a wizard's POV and writing a wizard's dialog. (Especially Hagrid's because he doesn't pronouce all is syllables and stuff). So, ten reviews, and I'll update tommorrow! I SWEAR ON STYX! *Thunder Rumbles Overhead sealing the deal*
