Hi guys! This is kinda my first Percy Jackson fanfic and it may seem a bit weird but I hope you like it!

I'm Annabeth Chase and I'm 16 years old. I've got long kinda curly blond hair but do not dare think that im dumb or ditsy just because of that, because I am NOT ok? I'm actually pretty damn smart, If i do say so myself. I've got grey eyes, like stormy grey clouds, and I look remarkably like my mother, Athena, but not the dark hair. Yes, I did just say Athena, goddess of wisdom and battle strategy. But I don't see her much, but hey, a goddess has to be busy right?

I used to go to Camp- Half blood, a camp for demigods like me, and Camp Half blood is the only place I could truly call home. I had loads of friends there and the good thing about the place? It's always hectic, crazy, fun and never boring and that's just the way everyone likes it. And I loved it. As i said before I did used to go there but that was only in the summer or when I was busy. I don't stay with my dad, with his wife and my half brothers Bobby and Mathew though and I bet you're all guessing why. Well, I ran away from there when i was a small kid to Camp-Half blood and although I fixed my relationship with my dad, It's still kinda rocky and anyways, his house is too far away for my liking.

Instead, I stay in a flat with my best friend Thalia. She's the daughter of Zeus, god of the sky. And she's really cool. She's got medium length dark hair, kinda spiky and my favourite feature about her is her eyes. They're bright electric blue, like lightning and equally as fierce. When she glares at you, seriously watch out. Her eyes seem to send imaginary lightning bolts at you and it gets pretty scary. But don't think that she's all like that. She's actually kinda nice once you get to know her and she's really loyal to her friends. She used to be a hunter for Artemis but...well, she kinda met someone and well Artemis did warn her about love and Thalia got her heart-broken by the guy she fell in love with. But, being the strong person she is, she got over it but now isn't a hunter of Artemis any more. And I don't think Artemis wants her back but hey, she's got me and I've got her. And she'll be OK and will deffo get over it. Like I said, she's Thalia, daughter of Zeus. Fierce and cool.

But, I disagree with Artemis about love though...I think that there can be someone in your life who you could love with all your heart who isn't family. But I still respect Artemis about sticking too her own choices.

I go to school with Thalia aswell, to a girls only high school which specializes in architecture and design. Of course it teaches all the other subjects too but Thalia doesn't like the place because apparently it's too boring. Honestly, I think her ideal school is where people laze around all day and don't have to do any work and instead listen to loud rock music all day. Seriously. But she does like the Greek mythology lessons and so do I. Obviously we would, seeing as we're like the top students in that particular class and we basically know everything about it. I mean, we have got a god as a parent y'know.

But know the school term is over and Its the holidays. And I honestly cannot WAIT to get back to camp half-blood To see Chiron and all my friends. And even Mr D,who's the god of wine, though not a lot. I mean he still doesn't get my name right! I think he does that on purpose...grr.

But Mr D aside I honestly cannot wait and get back to doing the things that I love doing. Sword fighting, capture the flag, Camp Half-blood really has it all.

"You excited?" I asked Thalia on the way to camp that morning. We were going via taxi to camp but the journey had been a long one although thankfully, I reckoned we would be there in about 20 mins.

"Meh." she replied. "I guess so, It's been a while since I came here you know, what with being a hunter and all..." her eyes clouded over, and her voice shook.

"Hey...you'll be fine. How could you help falling in love anyways? It's not your fault...Its just the way things were." I said trying to reassure her. She still had problems getting over being a hunter and I cannot imagine how much pain she went through when Artemis declared her not a hunter anymore.

"I guess so. But I cant believe I was that stupid! I thought...I thought he really cared about me." she sniffed. I put my arm around her and looked at her with sympathy in my eyes.

"Thalia forget him. He wasnt worth it, ok? And your Thalia. Noone and I mean noone can make you feel inferior without your permission, right?"

She smiled at me and gave me a quick hug.

"Your right. Thanks Annabeth, for cheering me up. And err, dont tell anyone ok? If anyone asks just say that I dropped out. Not...what really happened." she said looking at me, her blue eyes wide.

"I wont, promise." I said.

We fell into a comfortable silence looking out the window, thinking about Camp half-blood. I thought about how long I'd been there and how many friends I had there. I couldn't wait to see Nico, Grover, Silena, Piper, Jason, Leo, Clarisse, Katie Gardner and even the Stolls which was odd because they're like the thief's and pranksters of Camp. When Travis and Connor are around you have to keep hold of your valuables, you never though what they could take.

"Hey, Annabeth" said Thalia, her voice shaking me out of my thoughts.

"Yeah?"

"We're here."

I laid down on my bed that night, in the Athena cabin, listening to my brothers and sisters snoring peacefully. I was soo happy to be back and I gave everyone a hug even Clarisse, although we let go pretty quickly. I practised sword fighting with my siblings although fighting with a sword wasn't really my type, I preferred fighting with a dagger. I also practised archery but although I was good, there was no way I could beat the Apollo cabin. They were the best at archery but hey, their Dad is the God of it! I went down to visit the dryads and then the water spirits and they were all pleased to see me. Yep, life at Camp really was great.

I couldn't sleep though, I wasn't tired and I got out of bed quickly and put my shoes and a fleece on and decided to go for a walk near the beach.

I looked around outside for any harpies because If they saw me they would probably eat me but that didn't stop me from going outside. Slowly I walked to the beach aware of step I took, careful not to make a noise. I reached the beach and I gazed out at the sea, looking at how blueish green it was and how peaceful it seemed. Poseidon, must be happy. I looked around and suddenly I saw a shadow on the beach.

At first, I thought it was a harpy and I tensed but then I saw a figure of a boy, probably my age although It was too dark to see. I tried to make out his features and I thought I caught a pair of bright sea-green eyes although I couldn't be sure.

"Hello?" I call out, uncertainly. I saw the figure move towards me but then suddenly I heard the sound of harpy making screeching noises and I saw it flying above in the sky, calling out. I tensed.

"Quick!" the boy said. "If it see's you, your going to caught! Go!"

"Who are you?" I said trying to inject a bit of bravery in my voice, but It it came out as a squeak.

"My name's Percy Jackson but hurry! It's going to see you any second now, unless you run!"

"Aren't you going to?"

"I'll hide out in the sea until it goes then I'll go! But you have to run!"

"The sea?" I asked. "But how-

"Go!" he said, cutting me off. The harpy was right above us now and I figured I would have about 5 seconds until it saw me.

"Thanks." I said quickly before I ran. He smiled at me briefly and i noticed how bright his eyes were, exactly the same colour as the sea behind me and how dark his hair was as well. I felt him gaze at me for a few seconds but then suddenly the harpy spotted us.

Without a moment's hesitation, I sprinted as fast as I could and I looked back and saw Percy going in the water, hiding. I ran for my dear life quite literally all the way to the Athena cabin. I took my shoes and fleece off and slipped quietly into bed and waited for my heart rate to get back to normal. I thought about Percy and who he was. He seemed quite mysterious to me and I guessed he was a demi-god though I had never met him before in my life. I sank into the covers of my bed and I felt warm and cosy with the cosy blanket around me. Gradually I fell asleep, snoring peacefully dreaming about a pair of bright sea-green eyes...

That's all for the 1st chapter! I do hope you liked it and I'll try to update soon, if people review and I like it...
