OK! Firstly, thank you for reading my story. I'll try to upload every Wednesday because it is my favourite day of the week . I added some…. Irony to it.
Disclamer: I don't own Percy Jackson or Greek Myths.
Anyway, This is a Fem Percy x Apollo fanfiction. I hope you enjoy! It's also a Fem Nico story…
Chapter 1
Percy felt at peace with herself. Saying goodbye to all that had died was too hard for her. She wished she could rewind and save all those people. Riptide glowed beside her. She felt the sword had no use but sometimes when she looked into it she couldn't help but smile.
"Rough times aren't they?" She turned and held the hilt of her sword. Her father, Poseidon stood behind her.
"I wish he didn't die…" She trailed off. She looked down at the very spot.
"Priscilla Jackson. Death is something we all experience. My own brother, your uncle manages the dead."
"Dad, don't call me by my real name."
"Percy is such a boy's name!"
"Hasn't mum told you? I am a tomboy!" Poseidon chuckled at this comment. Getting his daughter fired up was something he couldn't help but laugh at.
"Percy, Priscilla is a Ancient Greek Name. I wanted you to be named Priscilla because I always liked the name."
"What if I was a boy?" Percy had sat back down and stared distantly to the ocean.
"Perseus?" She span around.
"Name me after a son of Zeus? Real original dad!" She span back to her original position. She looked towards the ocean; it made her feel the waves and their pattern. She could feel them inside her, cooling her brain, slowing her down.
Poseidon sat down next to her. He was his human height, a little taller than Percy but she always teased him she would be taller than her. He would just grown into his original height.
"Apollo is looking for another girlfriend…" She snorted. She had meant Apollo and he was completely stupid and had no emotions towards women.
"And?"
"He is looking at Camp Half-Blood. Of course he would prefer one of the Big Three children. It wouldn't be that awkward…"
There were only three children of the Big Three and funnily they were all females. There was Percy, Thalia daughter of Zeus and one of Percy's best friends and of course the dark and dangerous Nicole. Nico for short. She was someone Apollo would find ideal. Thalia was out of the question because she was apart of Artemis' hunters. She had accepted the offer three years before.
"Nico or me are ideal I suppose?"
"I'm sure Nicole will win over his heart… for now."
"So father, what exactly are you implying?"
"He will approach you. Maybe not now but some day and don't fall for him. Gods of the Sun are always handsome but it matters what he will do for you."
"Dad, I am a grown girl. I have fought and defeated Kronos and no offense he ate you. I think I can handle a bighead sun god."
Suddenly, a golden arrow appeared out of nowhere.
"Sorry to interrupt but I was trying to capture a deer. I aimed wrongly again." Apollo was standing over Poseidon and Percy. She knew he was lying. Apollo never missed.
"Take your golden arrows somewhere they are needed." Poseidon moved for his trident and Percy looked at the golden sun god. He looked exactly like the time Percy had first met her.
"Congrats on defeating Kronos Percy. Some great work." He winked at her and she boiled with anger. Wait, was it anger. She felt her cheeks flush red and her father was glaring at Apollo.
"Well see you at the solstice dear uncle." With that he vanished.
"I guess I to must go. Farewell daughter." E walked to the ocean and sea foam soon bubbled over his body. Percy had her hand still in farewell. She looked over and saw Annabeth walking with … ATHENA?!
"Almighty Athena, how may I express my joy of-"
"Cram it Sea Princess."
"Mother, I wish you would treat my friends with respect… even if they are Poseidon's spawn." She added in a hushed whisper but Percy heard it. She imagined if she was a boy…. Would she date Annabeth? Imagine Athena's reaction!
Somewhere in the distance, Poseidon was listening and waves crashed nearby threatening.
"Well daughter, farewell. Priscilla." With that she vanished. Suddenly, a branch broke in the distance. Percy grabbed Riptide and Annabeth withdrew he knife.
"Some friends you are!"
"THALIA!" Percy and Annabeth yelled in unison. They hugged their friend and didn't let go till someone behind coughed.
"Lord Zeus." They bowed.
"Priscilla you have made me the happiest god in Olympus. I wish I had known Thalia as well as I know her now! She is a fine daughter." He patted Thalia's shoulder and smiled at them both.
"And of course Annabeth. My dear grandchild." Annabeth suddenly looked shock and then it vanished.
"I never thought about it like that Lord Zeus."
"Well it just shows I am old. I am generations older than your mortal grandparents."
Annabeth smiled and so did Percy.
"Well, I'd best be leaving. Thalia I want you to stay at Camp for the next three days. Only because Apollo will be looking for another…. Partner in the next three days and I do not want my sweet little girl to fall into a his arms."
"Yes dad."
"Annabeth, Percy as you uncle and grandfather I forbid you to leave camp. Your mother and father know and they understand."
Percy sighed. She was looking forward to seeing her mother and Paul her step-father again. It wouldn't happen.
It's only three days, don't be a baby. She scolded herself.
She nodded at the god of the sky. He nodded in farewell and soon vanished.
"So, Apollo alert!" I said breaking the silence.
"Someone call?" Apollo was leaning against the nearby tree. He looked casual and playful at the same time.
"Hello Brother." Thalia was kind… no brave enough to speak.
"My sister is happy with your progress Thalia Grace. She says you have a natural talent for archery." He gave her a wink but she shook it off. How did she do it?!
"Annabeth, my dear niece!"
"Apollo…"
His stare lay on me for longer than I expected. Don't fall for him. I could her my father whispering in my ear.
"And of course… my cousin…" He said this more quietly and seriously than the others. I bowed my head
"Lord Apollo."
He then looked at Thalia "You called?"
"No Apollo, I was just talking about you, I didn't call."
"Right then away I go." He stared at Percy long enough for another war to break out.
"Goodbye Apollo!" My mocking voice and my mocking wave sent him off. He disappeared in a flash.
Camp was alive after the campfire. Everyone was celebrating the peace and good fortune. Percy thought celebrating peace would mean not screaming and drinking. Of course Mr D had supplied the camp with the wine… Zeus allowed him this once.
Percy wasn't interested. She sat in that same position. She felt her eyes burn with tears and she let them fall. She wondered if those tears would help in making plants and flowers but then she remembered, he tears were salt water, that would not help plants.
"To loud for you?" Behind her was Will Solace.
"Hey Will."
"Hey. Dad is looking for another partner. Probably Nicole but you never know, he might go for you."
"Just promise me one thing, this applies to the whole Apollo cabin."
"What?"
"Don't call me mum." He laughed. She could imagine Will and the other Apollo children running around her calling her mum and begging her for a lollypop or a new bow and a quiver.
"Yeah, definitely." She sound sure and matter-of-factly. Will was still laughing.
"Well you are my aunt so…"
"Will I was an aunt before I was born to people centuries older than me." She shuddered at the idea.
"Yeah well I have brothers centuries older than me."
"Greek families are weird." Will suddenly grasped Percy's face and slammed it into a kiss. OMG, he is kissing me. And he is amazing!
Well Will, you have won the bet. 20 drachmas in you pocket.
When he stopped, Percy flushed red and Will smiled.
"Well, I'd best be going and seeing the others." He ran off. Curious, she followed.
She saw him meet another Apollo boy. She got close enough to listen.
"Nice work! Percy Jackson. That's 50 drachmas!" Percy gasped. She covered her mouth just in time.
"Well she was alone and it was easy." More tears fell and she returned to the her spot. She felt the grass around her.
It was the same place Luke Castellan broke her heart.
