The Knights of Apollo
PERCY'S POV:
It's been 2 days 32 minuets and 5...6...7 seconds since I caught Annabeth cheating on me. I've decided that I don't want love anymore. Love doesn't exist to me anymore. (Sorry Aphrodite). I loved Annabeth with all my heart ,but now all of that love was just replaced with hate and anger for what she did to me. I thought as I sat on the beach at Camp Half- Blood. Even though I was mad..the beach seemed to comfort me. Well, being near water comforted me.
A few hours later I walked into my cabin to only run into a smiling god of the sun waiting for me.
"PERCY! Finally! I've been needing to talk to you!" said Apollo as he patted the spot next to him on my bed.
"What did you need Lord Apollo?" I asked.
"I've decided to make, with my fathers permission of course, a group of immortal hunters similar to my sisters hunters."
"What does this have to do with me?"
"Percy, I know that you have gave up love, and even though I feel sorry for you I think that it is the perfect opportunity to find my right hand man to stick by my side for eternity as my second in command for my knights."
"You want me to be your second in command?"
"Of course! It is the perfect opportunity, and you are immortal and by my side forever. Sounds great doesn't it?"
I didn't know what to say. I mean it might sound like the perfect opportunity now, but I didn't want to risk regreting it later. I then realized that the only reason for me to stay mortal was annabath, but she was gone now, and left me with no one. All of my confusion came to an end and i made a decision. One that would change my life for eternity.
"I will come with you to be the second of command in your knights Apollo." I said as I realized that there was no reason for me to stay mortal.
"You realize that you will be immortal right? I mean you gave it up the first time."
"Yes. I realize it. Can..can you give me some time to say good-bye?"
"Sure. Meet me on the beach in half an hour and be ready to leave. We have to travel and gather more kights." Apollo replied as he dissapeared in a golden light.
As I stepped out of my cabin and went to say good-bye to Grover and Nico who were in the woods just getting done talking to some nymphs.
"Hey..Grover..Nico!"
"Percy! Hey man!" yelled Nico as they both came running over.
"Whats wrong Perc?" asked Grover with a worried expression.
"Nothing. I just wanted to come say 'hey'." I replied not wanting them to try to stop me from leaving.
"Oh, well you know that if somethin' is wrong just come talk to me. Okay Percy?" asked Grover.
"Yeah. I'll do that. Well, see you guys later." I replied as I ran down to the beach to wait for Apollo.
"You're early." said the god from behind me causing me to jump.
"Yeah. Well, I didn't want to deal with all of the good-byes"
"Well before we leave..you need to become immortal."
"How does that work out?" I asked suddenly curious.
"All you have to do is say 'I pledge to stand by Apollo as his knight and second in command for all eternity'."
After I repeated the lines I felt a glowing around me and blacked out. When I woke up I was in a sun chariot. Apollos sun chariot..in the sky...Zues's sky. Crap.
"He's not going to hurt you. Not with your father near. Your his favorite child out of all of his children and that's alot. Plus you're immortal now, and also one of my knights. Not to mention my second in command." Apollo said proudly.
"Ugh..my head hurts." ignoring my want to jusp to the sea below to get out of the sky.
"Eh, just give that a minute. It'll go away. You should have seen Ares when he's had one of his head aches. Ooo, that brings on a haichu!"
"Umm no Lord Apollo. I think I'm good with the haichus for now."
"Okay well lets get going. More knights to catch."
"This is going to be a long ride." I mumbled as we landed in somewhere in California.
"You have no idea."
