Hello my name is Percy Jackson, and I am currently wishing I could just go back and change the past week. It has been about week since the titan war, and Annabeth hasn't been talking to me since because Luke being himself managed to live. I don't know how but here is what happened.

FLASHBACK

Annabeth ran out of site following Kronos to the middle of the Throne Room of the gods, and Grover and I are currently stuck, because the elevator decides it doesn't like to move anymore. The worst part of all of this we are at 499th floor and Olympus is the 500th floor.

"Percy hey are you here buddy?" Grover said bringing me out of my thoughts.

"Yeah what I am just trying to think of a way to get out of here." I lied. I really do not like to lie to Grover considering he can actually feel what I'm feeling.

"Well stop thinking and come here. Look above me there is an opening at the top of the elevator, and I think I can lift you up there." Grover bleated sounding nervous.

"How are you supposed to get up then? Because I don't think I can lift you up there. You would have to lay of the enchiladas for that to happen." I said.

"I'm not, but you can make it up there to go help Annabeth. You have to hold off Kronos till the gods can get there and to take him down." Grover said.

"Alright but as soon as I can I'll come back for you." I replied.

Grover kneeled down, and I climbed stepped onto his back and I jumped up. I barely grabbed the ledge of the hatch at the top of the elevator. Grover pushed my feet up so I could climb on top further. If I jump from where I am at I could see Olympus but I would need to climb up at least 11 feet, and I am not some mission impossible spy person so that isn't going to work. For the first time in my life my brain decided to work though. I grabbed onto the rope in the middle of the elevator shaft and shimmied up it, and jumped up onto Olympus grounds.

I started to run up the streets of Olympus just hoping to make in time to help fight of Kronos. As I was running I noticed how torn down Olympus looked almost every building was in shambles (Annabeth taught me that word). Even the street was cracked, but I didn't have time to think of that right now. I sped up as I was nearing the Throne Room. I ran straight into the room, and what I saw made my heart break slightly. Annabeth was bloody, bruised, and beaten just laying still on the ground.

"Son of Poseidon how great of you to finally turn up. I was expecting to see you much earlier than I did." Kronos said smugly.

I didn't like his tone or comment so I simply replied, "I don't negotiate with terrorists."

"I guess I do inspire terror in people don't I?" Kronos replied.

Oh, how I wanted to wipe that smug smile off his face.

"Yeah but it is mostly in that ugly face of yours." I replied just as smugly.

That turned his smile into a frown real quick. He was obviously fed up with me already deciding to make the first strike. I dodged the attack and uncapped Riptide, and tried to make a quick counter attack but as soon as the blade was 1 foot away from him it felt like I was pushing my sword through stone. Kronos then slapped me with the end of Backbiter sending me and my sword flying in opposite directions.

"It amuses me that you truly thought you stood a chance against me. I mean look around my army surrounds us. You have no chance you're camp is out number 1 to 500. Did you really think you were even going to slow me down?" Kronos ranted on.

I didn't care while Kronos was talking Riptide was already back in my pocket. I pulled out my sword and make a quick strike at Kronos and hit his neck, but my blade just bounced off. Fuck I forgot he took a swim in Styx too.

"Were you not ever told to interrupt and adult while they were speaking?" Kronos remarked.

"Good thing you are not an adult. You're an asshole, and a major one at that." I said. I am on fire today with these spicy comebacks.

While Kronos was trying to recover from that spicy hot comeback I make a quick slice towards him. As soon as the blade even neared him everything slowed. I'm like 99% sure if I would've just let go of my blade it would have stayed still and floated. Everything just stopped, and I couldn't move. Kronos made three slices at me while I was trying to move again. I had forgotten how much that blade hurt. The blade didn't even pierce my skin, but it felt like my chest was on fire. I definitely just lost some ribs.

"Huh, guess I am not the only one." Kronos said with sweat dripping off of him.

He must have a power limit with his mortal body because it looks like he is tiring. Freezing time completely must have tired him out a lot. I made a weak jab towards him, and he just side stepped and slapped me with the end of his scythe. I stumbled past him and regained my footing. I didn't even realize how tired I was till now. I rushed towards him but he slowed time down slightly and kicked me in the stomach. That just relit the fire from the broken ribs.

"Looks like I am going to win today demigod." Kronos said.

Kronos walked towards Annabeth and put his scythe to her throat.

I screamed, "Don't you dare touch her. I will murder you!"

But in reality I couldn't do anything. In fact I couldn't even get up. My whole body was in pain after getting kicked and sliced at. For some reason Kronos hesitated, and then completely stopped.

"Annabeth!" Luke screamed.

Luke had managed to get out of Kronos's hold for now.

"Luke." Annabeth whispered quietly.

"Anna I'm so sorry. Please forgive me." Luke cried.

"It is ok you weren't yourself." Annabeth whispered.

Luke jerked up standing straight up randomly.

"Stop that you insulant brat. I am in control now! Do you not understand that?" Kronos raged.

Kronos screamed and then his voice faded slightly.

In a mixture of Luke and Kronos's voices Luke said, "Percy my mortal spot is on my side. Kill me before Kronos is in full control, and stop him before he destroys everything. I see the mistake I have made. Fix it for me please!"

I grunted and crawled over to him and readied Riptide. I stabbed forward into his side just as Kronos was about to dodge. Riptide didn't go very far into his flesh only about two inches. But it was enough to make him screech at the top his lungs. He sent out one final burst of power, and it sent me flying.

"I will not fail! I will not fall to lowly demigods like you!" Kronos screamed.

All I saw was a lightning bolt strike him in the chest before I passed out.

HOURS LATER

When I woke all I saw was the Throne Room in crumbs, but all the seats of the gods were still there. That means we won. I tried to sit up but I was pushed back down by Will.

"WO, slow down their buddy you broke 5 ribs." Will said shakily.

"Is it bad?" I asked.

"Nah it isn't that bad." Will responded obviously scared.

I could tell just by look in his eyes it was bad. I didn't even need to hear that lie he just told me.

"Here take these." Will said while handing me some pills.

He basically shoved the pills down my throat, and I was out like a light.

HOURS LATER AGAIN

I woke up in the medical area at Camp Half-Blood, and when I looked around I was instantly depressed. There were many symbols and flags that meant someone had perished. All of these deaths had happened at the war. The war I leaded, and I had failed all of these people. Most of them weren't even old either. They will never get to experience all the great things in life. Like blue coke, or blue waffles. (Gross joke if you understood it.)

I look over to my other side to see who else was in the medical ward. I saw a lot of people but one person who stood out the most had sandy blonde hair. I stood straight up, and fell off the bed I was on.

"Ribs, right." I grunted.

I regretted my actions quickly as soon as I felt the burn in my chest come back. I slowly hoisted myself up till I was standing, and I walked outside to see the camp in ruins.

FLASHBACK OVER

If I would've just stabbed my sword deeper into Luke's side I would never had to deal with this in the first place. I don't understand what Annabeth even sees in him after what he has done. You probably don't understand what I mean so here let me tell you what happened.

3 DAYS EARLIER

I woke up to the sound of someone banging on the door. I looked over to the clock to see its only 7:00am. Who even wakes up at this ungodly hour? I rolled out of bed carefully to not hurt my ribs, and put on a pair of pants. Yes, I sleep in only boxers ok. It's too comfy to not do. I walked over and opened the door.

"Hey, how are you doing Percy." Rachel said sadly.

"Hey, Rach what's wrong?" I questioned.

"So you haven't heard?" Rachel asked.

"Heard what?" I asked.

"The rewards of Olympus already out." Rachel said.

"Um how? I wasn't there so… how did they do it?" I wondered out loud.

"They didn't think you deserved a reward." Rachel whispered.

"What? Why?" I almost silently said.

"Annabeth said that you never came to aid her when Kronos was attacking her. Then Athena said that you came late on purpose, and twisted Zeus's mind to her side. Annabeth ended up saying that Luke held off Kronos's influence, and defeated him. She claimed she never even saw you in the throne room till the end of the fight." Rachel said.

"But that's a lie. I fought off Kronos till Luke regained control for about 45 seconds." I said kind of hurt.

Did Annabeth really not see me fight off Kronos so he wouldn't kill her? I even have the wounds to prove it.

"Well I am going to eat. Breakfast was served about 15 minutes ago. You should go eat." Rachel said happily.

There is something wrong with that girl. One second she is all sad the next second she is happy. That is a case being bi polar in my opinion.

LATER IN THE AFTERNOON

I've been looking for Annabeth all day but I haven't seen her yet. I even asked some other campers where she has been, but all of them gave me sad eyes and told me they haven't seen her. Right now I was about to go see if she was in the arena when Clarisse pasted me. So I turned around to walk next to Clarisse.

"What do you want fish boy?" Clarisse said.

"Have you seen Annabeth today?" I asked, not even caring about the nickname she gave me.

"She was down by the beach last time I checked fish boy." Clarisse said, walking away to Chris.

So I started my journey towards the beach. After like 10 minutes of searching for her on the beach I raised a hand up to my eyes to block the sun to see someone sitting at a dock. The same dock where Annabeth and I sit together all the time. It was like our special place really. So I walked over to see who it was. As I got closer I realized it was two people. Both had blonde hair except one had a dirty blonde hair color. Then I could hear them speaking.

"What do you think Percy will do when he finds out about us?" Luke asked.

"I don't know but what will he really do. I mean come on its Percy. It's not like he's going to do something about it." Annabeth said.

"I guess you are right. He was always too nice to do something like that." Luke said uneasily.

"Too nice? I meant to dumb. You are forgetting he is a son of Poseidon. Strong but dumb. Basically if the Ares kids had magical powers that didn't suck it would be another child of Poseidon." Annabeth said cockily.

"I don't know you should never underestimate someone like that. They may have more than just appears." Luke said carefully, trying not to argue with her.

"Yeah well Percy doesn't so just calm down." Annabeth claimed.

Annabeth leaned in closer to Luke to kiss him, and he kissed her right back. I wanted to scream at them. I wanted them to die so badly. I used my powers to form a decent wave at least 6 feet high, and knocked them into the lake off the dock. I was overly pissed. I could see that waters form more waves. Then I could hear them say one last thing.

"Looks like it might rain we better get back into the camp. Especially with the lake like this right now." Luke said, shivering from being wet.

"Yeah, you are right. It looks like it might rain with the lake acting like this." Annabeth said.

They walked back to the camp, and all I could think was what she said. "Too nice? I meant to dumb. You are forgetting he is a son of Poseidon. Strong but dumb." That really hurt. I felt kind of hollow hearing her say this. That sentence just plagued my mind. I thought she cared about me. Maybe even liked me… she kissed me before Saint Helens, and now she does this.

PRESENT TIME

I just got done fighting some dummies at the arena, and I made the mistake of taking my shirt off because it's hot. Now my shirt is gone, and the only thing that is left is the smell of perfume. The Aphrodite cabin strikes again from the crusades of stolen shirts. So now I'm walking back to my cabin to take a shower shirtless mind you, and guess who I run into! Annabeth fucking Chase!

"Hey Percy what is with all the bandages?" Annabeth asked quietly,

That little bitch! How dare her! She knows perfectly what is with all the bandages. In fact she was in the same damn room when I got my ass kicked by Kronos! I could feel my face heat up with anger. How dare she even say my name! I hate the way she says it. She acts if I'm three years old!

"Hey are you okay? You're all flushed… are you sick?" Annabeth asked.

"It's Perseus to you, and no I'm fine. Now can you get out of my way? I have better things to do than waste time talking to you." I replied hotly.

"Ok, I'll just be going then." Annabeth replied sounding hurt.

She deserves it though. Playing the I'm so perfect and innocent card. After I went into my cabin and took a shower I heard the horn sound it was time for lunch. So I set out to go eat lunch. As I entered the pavilion I had an unexpected visitor at my table… Luke.

"Hello." Luke said monotonously.

"Hi," I said just as monotonous.

"I just wanted to thank you Percy. You saved me. After all the physical and emotional pain I sent your way. You still spared my life. You are a true hero." Luke praised.

All this time he sits here and praises me, and yet all the claims are true. I still wish I would've kill him. He isn't worth what he costs. Should've sold him off to China to be another little kid in a factory.

"It wasn't my choice Luke. It was yours obviously since you defeated Kronos." I angrily replied.

"How did you hear about that?" Luke whispered shyly.

"I hear a lot of things these days. Mainly about how dumb, weak, or annoying I am." I replied hotly.

"I didn't mean for anything to happen like this! I really didn't you have to understand that." Luke boldly said.

"Oh yeah, I understand it alright. No hero gets a happy ending, and I'm obviously no exception." I snapped back.

"Well you should just be happy you're alive after all you've been through." Luke recoiled.

"That's because I'm not nearly as dumb or weak minded as you are. Look at you! Nearly at the end and being the host of Kronos, and can't even finish the job!" I sneered.

"Well you are only mad just because Annabeth doesn't like you! You are mad because we are a couple. Annabeth probably doesn't even like you at all anymore!" Luke shot back.

"At least I'm not a worthless piece of shit like you are!" I shouted.

"Oh yeah, at least I don't need attention all the time like you do!" Luke shouted back.

I snapped, and I punched him in the face. It was solid enough to send him to the ground. As he tried to get back up I punched him again in the chest. He charged me and knocked me down so he was on top of me. I rolled so I was on top of him, and I punched him and punched and punched him more. I don't know how many times I hit him… but it was a lot. When I was done and I looked down all I saw was a huge bloody bruised face. Almost unrecognizable.

"Fight, fight, fight, fight." A small crowd cheered around us.

What was wrong with me? Just beating up someone… have I really stooped this low? When I looked up all I saw was Chiron's disappointed face. Man I fucked up. I stood up to leave, and as I passed by I saw Connor and Travis shake their heads at me to say don't even say anything. Annabeth just stared at me like she discovered someone new to the world. Katie just looked sad because of all the fighting.

Chiron said, "Someone get the Apollo cabin to heal Luke. Also did anyone see or hear what happened?"

The whole time I walked away all I heard was Chiron's reprimanding voice give commands, and ask questions. I started to walk faster, and then I started to jog. In till I fully broke out into a sprint. I just need to get out of here, and get some fresh air. I headed towards the lake. As I neared the lake I could see that the lake was obviously be affected by my emotions. The waters looked grey, dull, sad, and lifeless almost a copy of my emotions.

"Percy are you okay?" someone asked.

I turned around to see Rachel standing there looking at me.

"I don't need your pity. Besides Luke is the one who got hurt so why would you even ask me that." I remarked.

"It's not pity, and because we are friends. This is what friends do. When we are in hard times we help each other, and it's obvious you're having a hard time." Rachel said coolly.

"How did you even find me?" I asked quietly.

"Oracles intuition." She answered.

"I'm sorry I am being a jerk I'm just tired. To answer your first question yes I am ok. I am just tired." I answered, after recollecting myself.

"It's ok. If you're really that tired just go get a nice long nights sleep. Also if you don't want to get assaulted by the Apollo cabin go through the woods to your cabin." Rachel said cheerfully.

"What's the worst they could do? Insult me through slam poetry." I asked jokingly.

"No shoot you, and kick you a lot!" Rachel seriously.

"It was a joke chill, besides how do you even know they are there." I questioned.

"Oracles intuition!" Rachel said happily.

"Well can this oracles intuition tell me when I'm going to get some food? Cause I haven't eaten yet today, and I'm starving." I said matter of factly.

"Here take this granola bar, and don't ask how I got it. I have to go I just got another idea for a painting! Peace Percy." Rachel said, while running off to only god knows where.

I swear she can teleport because she was gone within seconds, and I didn't even hear her come behind me when she arrived. At least she brought me a granola bar. It isn't much but it will have to do till tomorrow morning. I was walking in the forest because Rachel told to me before I saw something white. I went to pick it up and it said.

Percy

Hello Perseus, sleep well tonight for it might be your last great sleep in a long time. You would do well to not say anything about this message. Besides no one would believe you. Just think about it who would believe Percy Jackson the boy was is angry, violent, and rude.

Signed Ἥρᾱ

All I could think is how correct this letter was. The whole letter was written in ancient Greek, but I couldn't identify the name that it was signed by. I mean who really would believe me after this week. I've lost most of my friends, and everyone dislikes me now. I finished the trip to my cabin and got into bed. Not that worried about the letter.

DEMIGOD DREAM

I was in the middle of a large city. The city was huge, and there were lots of people wearing bronze armor. They were carrying swords, and bows and all kinds of weapons. I started to travel the streets to find where I was at. This place looked like Greece back in its peek when Athens and Sparta where still alive. That idea went straight away when I saw the name of the town trader's shop thing. Rome's Finest Wears… I was in Rome. The old nation that destroyed the Greeks. Why would I be here?

"Because this is where you will be staying at for a while." Someone spoke.

I looked all around me to only see normal citizens of Rome. Where was this person?

"Behind you." They spoke again.

I turned around to come face to face with the queen of Olympus. I instantly kneeled so I wouldn't be killed or whatever she does to those who disrespect her.

"Hello Lady Hera, what do you mean?" I asked suspiciously, and respectfully.

"You will know all in good time." Hera said, while moving closer to me.

All I saw was her put two fingers to my forehead before everything faded to black.

REALITY – EIGHT MONTHS LATER

When I woke up all I could think about was this insane headache, and the fact I don't know where the fuck I'm at! What the hell even happened second I was doing… actually I don't know what I was doing when this happened. What was I doing, where did I even come from? Who am I, and what am I going to do now? I looked over to see some skeleton of man next to me in some imperial armor. I stopped moving for a second, and I could hear steps by people maybe. No, they were too quite. Definitely animal footsteps, and a lot of animals.

"Grrrr." A low growl sounded out.

I was in for a surprise I guess. When I looked up and around me I was surrounded by wolves, but one stood out the most. It was a huge grey and white wolf that was just sitting and watching me. Then I saw a large black wolf launch itself at me. I barely sidestepped it, and as I turned to face the wolf I saw the imperial skeleton guy had a sword. I started to run towards him, and as I reached him the black wolf tackled me. It was on top of me. It was trying to bite my neck, but I had my hands around its snout keeping its mouth closed. I was only inches away from the sword though, but if I let go with one hand I wouldn't be able to keep its mouth closed.

"Make a quick movement to the sword." A female voice whispered in my head.

So I followed it. I made a quick grab to the sword, and tried to put the sword through its neck but I didn't have enough speed or strength when I was this close. It only went a few inches in its neck, but that was okay because the wolf bounced off of me. Then a female voice rang out, and the largest grey and white wolf appeared as a lady.

"Hello Percy Jackson. I am Lupa the mother of Rome. Go west there you will find a new home. You will find out more about yourself there too." Lupa announced, while walking away.

She was out of my site in minutes, and my dumbass didn't ask any questions that would help me. It was beginning to become night so I should just set up camp, but there was no firewood. Everything was wet from rain the obviously happened sometime last night. The weirdest thing about this is that I'm not wet. I was probably only out there for a few hours before Lupa found me.

"I will meet you half way, and provide you warmth. You have to do the rest." The female voice whispered in my head again.

A nearby bush went up into flames in seconds. I must be Moses or this didn't just happen. I found some wet sticks and tossed them into the fire so they would eventually dry out and burn. Then I sat under a tree and just thought about what happened. All I know about myself is that I am Percy Jackson and I need to travel west. Not much but it will have to do for now. Besides Lupa said that I will learn more about myself once I've traveled west right? Maybe she was lying. What if nothing is there? I didn't think about this much longer before I feel asleep to the sound of dripping water from the tree leaves.

AUTHERS NOTE

Was it good? This is the first story I've ever wrote and I think I did decent. Tell me what you think, and I would be happy to hear anything that would improve the story. I'm also open to ideas that you have to make the story go on. I don't have a plot yet for the story, but I'm slowly forming one. Make sure to favorite and follow this story. I won't make any more chapters till I see that people actually like my writing. I'm not going to write if no one likes it. That would be like singing for no one. It is pointless.
