Chapter 1: The last straw.
Percy P.O.V
Life sucks. To put it simply, life sucks right now. I have nowhere to go and there is only one person keeping me from going insane right now. I can't take much more of it. The last few weeks have been a disaster. We had just defeated Gaea and the Giants and things started to go downhill from there on out.
You see when I had gotten back from Camp Half-Blood from the Roman camp I found out I had a new Jackass brother with the biggest ego ever. His name was Marcus, he was the same age as me with black hair and blue eyes, he was part of the war with Gaea and the Giants and all he did was cage Rhea in water who was the only peaceful titan, while I single handedly defeated Gaea and all the giants along with 3 of the titans. The campers and all the gods swooned over him while I was left to be forgotten. He was made immortal and Poseidon claimed him to be his favorite son ever.
I mean I didn't like a lot of attention but I needed my friends. The only people that haven't forgotten about me yet has been Annabeth, Thalia, Nico, and Grover. Thalia is with the hunters so I hardly see her anymore, Nico spends all his time in the underworld, and Grover is tied up with his job as being a Lord of the wild. That leaves me with Annabeth, but it seems like ever since my brother showed up we have been getting farther and farther apart. So here I am, sitting in my cabin just thinking.
I was supposed to meet Annabeth at the beach today after dinner because she wanted to talk to me about something, which made me slightly worry. I love Annabeth with all my life and it worries me because she has been spending more and more time with my brother Marcus.
I decided to go to the training arena to spar a little bit from getting me all worked up over everything. I made my way to the arena without much trouble. I entered the arena and started slashing at dummies with deadly accuracy. I eventually got tired and poured some water over my head and went down to the beach where I was supposed to meet Annabeth.
A few minutes passed by and I heard someone walking toward me. I stood up and turned around to see Annabeth. She didn't look so happy to see me.
"Hey wise girl, whats wrong?" I asked her.
"Listen Percy, we need to talk,"
"Sure, what do you want to talk about?" I asked.
"Recently I talked with my mom and-" She stopped talking, tears were starting to form in her eyes. I was really worried because usually anything to do with Athena for me hasn't turned out so well. She started talking again, and right there I nearly had a heart attack.
"My mom wants me to go away for a long time for a new job and I don't think we can remain together for any longer, but I hope we can still be friends, I just can't pass up this job," She said, mumbling a bunch of her words.
By now I had tears streaming down my face. This was too much, all the hurt and pain of losing Annabeth kept on hitting me like a bomb and I didn't think I could take it.
"But, didn't you think about us at all?"
"I did but I feel my job is more important-I'm sorry." She said, saying that last part under her breath.
"Have a nice life... Annabeth." I started to walk away when I heard Annabeth calling for me. I didn't stop walking, I went straight to my cabin. There was nothing left for me at Camp Half-Blood anymore, whats the point of even staying here. I had very few friends here but that was the final straw.
I decided I would leave in the morning so I started packing my bag to leave. Maybe I could go to the gods and ask for help. Its worth a try, there is nowhere else I can turn anymore. I heard my cabin door open and saw my brother, in other words Marcus-he's not really my brother anymore. I saw him holding hands with some aphrodite girl.
I decided I would vapor travel out of my cabin so I wouldn't have to hear them and whatever they do. See I learned how to vapor travel after the war with Kronos, my dad taught me how to, not much of a father anymore. He hasn't visited me in, well since he taught me to vapor travel. Its a lot like shadow traveling except its with water, for example any water in the air or any water near me I can use to travel to another place that has water. But I hear him with my brother all the time goofing off in his cabin. He even got to go to his underwater kingdom last week. Some father.
I know I sound like a baby right now but come on, I lost everything, I have a right to be sad right now.
I vapor traveled outside of my cabin with my bag and decided I would leave tonight, because there was no way I was going to stay in the same cabin as him. I started running out of camp and got a few weird looks at me but I didn't stop. I reached Thalia's Pine tree and said one last goodbye to camp. I was going to have a new start, there was nothing for me at camp anymore. I decided I would go nameless until I can find my place in the world since it must not be here.
Ok, My first chapter, please tell me if there's anything that needs to be fixed and sorry the chapter was so short, it was just like an intro sorta, filly chapter. Please review!
