I got like so many reviews. You guys are awesome.

Kendra PJO- Yeah, they had chips, but Annabeth said that she had cooked breakfast, but she didn't cook the chips. So I'm assuming that she cooked something before, but something happened to it.

Guest- Yeah, but I didn't know how else to do it since the teachers would never let Percy out of their sight because he's such a troublemaker.

I just replied to the reviews I could answer. This chapter isn't my best, I admit, but I don't know much about college. If I did, I would have written it from Fredrick's point of view. And maybe I'm just not in the writing mood today.


"My dad sent it to me folded up in a letter, two summers ago. The ring was, like, his main keepsake from Athena. He wouldn't have gotten through his doctoral program at Harvard without her…"

-The Lightning Thief


"Annabeth, you have a letter," Chiron said.

Annabeth put away her bow and ran over to Chiron. "Is it from my dad?"

"You'll see," Chiron said and ruffled her hair. He handed her the letter from is saddlebag. "Don't get mad, okay Annabeth?"

"Okay," she said and walked to her cabin.

She inspected the letter and immediately scowled. It was from her father. She sat on her bed, about to rip it when she felt something inside it. She pulled out her dagger and ripped the letter open. A ring fell out, and she frowned. It didn't look like a marriage ring.

She opened up the letter and read through it, her dyslexia messing her up from time to time.

"Dear Annabeth,

I'm still waiting for you to come back home. It's been four years. Can you believe it? Of course, I understand if you don't want to come back. I hope you're having fun at camp.

I bet you're wondering what the ring is for. I thought you might be interested in it. It's from Athena, my main keepsake from her. I used to wear it all the time you know, before I married who you still call Mrs. Chase.

Annabeth scowled. They had a hate-hate relationship going on, and she wasn't about to start loving her anytime soon.

It's from when I finished the doctoral program at Harvard. I told you about it a few times, right? Athena helped me get through it. She was, and still is, amazing. I still love her Annabeth, don't get that wrong.

She was posing as a student in all my classes, and of course she was the top student. Me on the other hand, I was the worst student in that class. Athena volunteered to tutor me, and I accepted. I don't regret it. She made me from the bottom to the top. Or maybe not the top. I was always behind Athena.

We still continued our relationship for a while after we finished college. She gave me that ring when we graduated. She told me that she was happy to have met me. Then she told me who she really was. Athena, the goddess of wisdom. Of course I freaked. I was dating an immortal goddess of wisdom! She noticed though, and we never met after that.

Then you came. You were like a part of Athena. You're like her in so many ways. I hope you meet a better person than me. You have good judgment.

I'm going to ask you again, though I'm sure you'll decline. Come back home. We miss you. We're a family right? A family sticks together.

Love,

Dad

Annabeth scoffed and crumpled up the letter. She threw it in the trash can. A beautiful three-pointer.

She fingered the ring in her hands. This was from Athena. She didn't have anything of Athena, not even a picture. This symbolized their love, god and mortal. She wasn't sure if that love still existed between them, but maybe she could mend it back together. Maybe even hers and her fathers.

But not now, she thought. She took off her camp necklace. Three beads, and she was about to get her fourth one. She strung her father's ring onto the necklace as a reminder. Hopefully a good one.
