I thought I was loved
Summary: Percy's life was going great. He has survived against all odds. He managed to get what heroes usually never get, a happy ending… or so he thought. (Trying not to make it usual Percy/betrayed)
DISCLAIMER: Just own the plot, not the characters. (Unfortunately)
Percy's POV:
Leo and I had finally come back from a quest. Turns out when you're girlfriend's mom is Athena, and your dad is Poseidon, then you will NEVER good enough. Still if you go and risk your life enough times, you might be barely tolerable. So, to get Athena's blessing, you need to go on a few quests. I decided to take Leo because his fire powers, (it was quite handy to be fire-proof when you're fighting a dragon) and we both went to get the apples of Hesperides. (They had a dragon named Ladon) Anyway, we had just came back. I had a big surprise for Annabeth. "When are you going to do it?" asked Leo, "Right now". I headed over to the Athena cabin. Malcolm opened the door. "Where's Annabeth?" He turned a bit pale. "She's on the beach" I turned to go to the beach. When Leo and I got closer to the beach, we heard two voices: my dad and Annabeth. I wanted to hear what they were talking about so Leo and I hid on a cliff that overlooked the beach. I heard: "Your son really is the savior of everybody" I beamed. "He's lucky to have you" I was about to go down there to make an appearance when I heard one more thing on the way down. "No, I'm lucky to have Andy" I stopped dead in my tracks. Andy? He was a Son of Hecate. He was handsome, but I thought that Annabeth was mine. I stormed down there to give them a piece of my mind. "What's the meaning of this?" Annabeth looked ashamed and shocked. "P-p-Percy it's not what it looks like." I looked at my dad and my anger just grew. He just stood there like nothing had happened, at least Annabeth had the decency to look ashamed. My dad just shrugged, Andy is better than you. I couldn't believe it.
Flashback: (Percy POV)
Capture the flag was going on, my team was going for the flag. Suddenly my keen senses heard something. I turned around to find my sword at a Hermes kid's neck. I removed my sword and let him pull his out. We fought, but I let him win since this seems like his first fight. After he grabbed the flag he went to his side. After that when everybody was cheering for him, he was claimed, by Poseidon. I was overjoyed, I had a brother. He was my brother, and I showed him the ropes around the Poseidon cabin. He too grew famous and "the Poseidon brothers" became a famous topic on camp. It was all normal…..
(End of flashback)
I turn to Annabeth, "Why?" She doesn't reply. I feel anger coursing through me. I want to just, vent it out…
Annabeth POV
It starts to thunder, and a storm is building up. The camp has an enchantment but Percy just might be strong enough…. I have never actually been the brunt of Percy's anger, it has fricking scared the heck out of me…
Percy POV
I was just about ready to let loose a hurricane (no one could stop because my dad disappeared) when I felt a hand on my shoulder. My reflexes kicked and I pushed him/her back and sent a few blasts of ice at whoever dared to attack me. I stopped them immediately when I see it was Leo, who had now seen everything. I calm down a little, and walk toward Leo and help him up.
Leo POV
As I watched the whole thing, I suddenly realize that a storm was coming. I immediately knew it was Percy and tried to calm him down by putting a hand on his shoulder. Before I knew it, I was flung back and icicles were shot at me… before melting. Percy comes and helps me up, but then Poseidon appears again and this time, with all of the Olympians, plus Hestia.
Percy POV
"Perseus Jackson", booms the king of the gods. "There has been evidence that you have been plotting to kill Andy." What? "Why would I kill Andy? He's like a brother to me" "Well, Annabeth loves him and not you, and he's clearly more amazing? You must be jealous" says Poseidon. "I am officially disowning you, now hand over riptide." Before I can say anything, I could feel riptide gone.I felt a part of me leave. I look over to Hestia, she gives me a sad look; as if she were debating to do anything. I felt anger boil inside of me, with more hate than I felt with even with Akhlys. But before I could do anything, Leo piped up. "You guys are idiots, what about you fish brain? He's YOUR son, or what about you drama queen, or you owl face? Did you forget that his ENTIRE FATAL FLAW IS LOYALTY? About the fact that Andy is better, he's cool and all, but Percy is THE SAVIOR OF OLYMP- SHUT UP! Thunders Zeus. Everybody there was shocked, including me, on how Leo can be so bold, but I quickly recover, because he's, well, Leo. Everybody is still shocked! "You dare to speak so boldly? I declare that Percy be banished to Tartarus- My breath hitched- along with Leo." All against? Only Hestia, Apollo, and Hermes raise they're hands. "Wait, Leo has done nothing to you- I was cut off by Leo. "No, Percy, if another war comes up, we'll probably be the ones uprising, so come on, and give me your best shot." He looks Zeus in the eye. Then he turns to his dad, eye to eye and says "I'm disappointed in you". At least his dad had the decency to look ashamed. Mine just calmly said, goodbye Percy, I'm disappointed in you." I calmly return back "You're not the only one dad, I would disown you had you not already done it" then I turn to Annabeth, "I thought we had something, I guess I was wrong, but whatever you do, I will still love you, even I haven't forgiven you just yet." I turn to Zeus "Go ahead". He responds "Any last words?" He raises the thunderbolt. In a split second I look at Leo and we thought the same thing: Run. We both bolted towards the forest leaving behind a bunch of shocked Olympians and Annabeth. We both ran until we reached the edge of the forest. I turn to him "I'm sorry Leo, you weren't supposed to be hated and banished along with me." "Are you kidding me? If I stayed, I'd be the evil one, besides you aren't my best friend for no reason." Suddenly I feel a presence. I thought some gods were spying on me, until I realize that it was coming from my pocket. I reach in my pocket to find that it was riptide. "How the- riptide has recognized you as its owner. Leo says. "You managed to gain its respect, it won't leave you" All of a sudden a different voice says "Your friend is right" I whip around to see Apollo, Hestia, and Hermes there. The only three gods who were actually on our side. They all looked worried, "We don't have much time, we came to give you our full blessings, the gods are searching everywhere for you" "How have they not found us yet" I ask. Apollo replies "The sun is hiding you, but let's not get off topic, the sun can't hide for you for long. We are here to give you our blessings. Hestia steps forward "I wish to give you both my full blessings. Do you accept?" Leo and I both kneel and say "I accept". We were both suddenly blasted with power. She turns to me "You now can create home cooked home-cooked meals, give hope and control fire." She then turns to Leo, "You have better control over fire, and can generate home cooked meals, and you can't generate hope because you're a son Hephaestus and are better with machines than people." Leo still didn't look that phased, "It's true I am horrible with people." Then Apollo stepped forward and we felt another blast of power. He turned to me and said "You can now make the sun focus on a specific person if it's daytime and make them hot on the spot. You can also use your voice to lure somebody into a state of dizziness, kind of like the sirens." He then turned to Leo "You can make somebody tell the truth and now have perfect archery skills". Hermes finally steps forward, he's been quiet this whole time. "I worry that my blessing won't help you, but here we go" We feel a blast of power, but this time slightly less. "You can now run really fast, be quite stealthy, and can tell perfect lies, that won't be detected by anybody except the Olympians." Leo and I both bow to the three gods, "Hermes your blessing will help us greatly, and I thank all of you." Apollo opened his mouth but he was cut off by thunder. They all paled. "Before I go, let me tell you not to go to sally's house. She's under constant surveillance of the gods and I have already talked to her. I will make sure she's okay. I advise you to go to Alaska. It's past the gods, and there's a certain powerful being who wants to meet you, I'm sorry but we must go now, and always remember we've got your back" In a flash of light they were gone, and Leo and I were to go to Alaska. We decided to set up camp there, and with Hestia's powers we were able to summon food. The next morning we were set to depart for Alaska…
I'm trying my best to make a good story. Please excuse any mistakes… I'm trying. Pairings will come later, but don't worry, Percy and Leo won't be broken hearted. They're too awesome for that. SonofPoseidon747 out!
