DISCLAIMER - Only the Monster and the Lake are mine. Percy Jackson isn't, sadly.
One day Percy Jackson was eating a cheeseburger. As he took his eleventy-fifth bite, a giant gooey mass suddenly appeared out of nowhere and began to undulate menacingly in his direction. In a deep, molasses-like voice, it burbled, "O hai. I can haz cheezburger?"
Percy, being his usual amazing self, said "Of course Mr. Huge Terrifying Monster, I would like nothing better than to give you my cheeseburger, even though it means I could starve to death. Here!"
He tossed the cheeseburger at the mass and it sunk beneath the surface, where it immediately dissolved. But unfortunately, the mass happened to have eaten some antimatter before then and when the cheeseburger touched the antimatter, the mass exploded.
Percy disdainfully wiped the drops monster-juice off his face. Then, he licked his fingers and grinned. "Not bad for a gross, acidic monster. I must find me some more of this lovely concoction!"
With that, Percy went over to the Big House to consult the Oracle and get a quest to search for the legendary Lake Of Gross and Scary Goo. When he arrived the Oracle told him he would find the Lake Of Gross and Scary Goo in a place with many low prices and special discounts. So he immediately guessed It was a McDonalds down the street. Then the Oracle gave Percy a bottle of soda and a burger for the trip. "Do you want fries with that?" the Oracle asked.
"Only if they're made of monster!" said Percy.
The Oracle mumbled a bit and produced a bag of glowing green fries which Percy pocketed gladly. Munching on his burger, he set off on the path towards the local McDonalds, or the Lake of Gross and Scary Goo.
Percy walked down the road by thousands of strawberry fields until he finally reached the town, but there was no McDonald's in sight! He searched the streets for hours until he finally gave up while on a dark, suspicious road when it got dark. At this point, Percy was tired and hungry, but remembered that he had monster fries with him left over from his Oracle Lunch.
He got out the fries and started eating them, walking by the green glowing light of his food, when he suddenly found himself dissolving away and felt his particles flying around in the wind.
Turns out the Oracle gave him fries that happened to be from a radioactive monster and his own body was flinging itself apart into tiny particles. Luckily, Chiron was coming with the party ponies looking for the McDonalds to celebrate his birthday. He saw Percy's particles in the road and swept them up in a dustpan to take back to camp and put through the un-shredder in his office. Once Percy was re-materialized, he was rather upset at finding himself back at camp. Still he took the opportunity to ask Chiron where he might be able to find a McDonald's.
Chiron replied: "My boy, you'll find Death by the Rock of Life. There, all will be well."
Percy tore his eyes away from the gigantic bottle of beer in Chiron's left hoof to consider this advice. "Seems legit," he concluded, and set off once again on his journey.
What will Percy find by the Rock of Life? Read on!
