It was a normal day. The birds chirped in Thalia's pine tree, monsters roared on the outskirts of camp, and I stood by the beach, watching the waves crash onto the shore.

Little did I know this would be my last day on this beach.

The last day above the ground.

The last day with my friends.

The last time I would ever feel the cool, salty air on my face.

Or so it seemed.

It all started when Hermes appeared next to me on the beach.

"Lord Hermes! What are you doing here?" I asked, a bright smile on my face.

He glared at me, causing my smile to fall into a frown. "Mr. Jackson, I will need you to come with me. The Olympians have ordered you to come straight to Olympus. No goodbyes. No packing."

I stood watching Hermes, confused. Mabey it was a quest. But why can't I say goodbye to my friends? Something was wrong here. Something, but I wasn't sure what.

He held out his arm, which I grabbed onto and he flashed us into the throne room of Olympus.

Zeus stood before me, lightning bolt in hand. He the the bolt at me and I watched as it morphed into a cage of lightning.

"What the? What's going on?" I yelled panicking.

Athena stepped off her throne and stood before me.

"Percy Jackson, for multiple crimes against the Olympian gods, including the murder of Leo Valdez, you have been sentenced to immortality in Tartarus."

I stood motionless, tears streaming down my face. I hate seeming weak, but going back to that... place was to much.

"I would never murder Leo! He was my friend! Gia killed him! Not me! Please don't send me there! Please!" I yelled.

The gods looked at me with hatred gleaming in their eyes.

"And when we're you going to confess that you had been working with Gia the entire time?!" Yelled Zeus.

I stood their confused. I helped defeat Gia! Why would they ever think I was helping her?

"I would never help her! She was the enemy! Why would you ever think that?" I asked, pounding my fists against the lightning bars.

Zeus ignored me. "From this day on Percy Achilles Jackson will be considered nothing more than a monster. Tartarus awaits you." He yelled and zapped me with lightning.

I screamed in agony as the blood was drained from my body and replaced by golden inchor. I collapsed to the floor in agony, my eyes glowing with anger.

"What proof do you have?" I questioned.

A boy walked out from behind Zeus, a cold smirk on his face.

Nate, son of Poseidon and my younger brother.

I glared at him. "Are you trying to ruin my life? First you take my wise girl and now..." I shook my head.

~~~~~~~~~this flashback shall be called Steve~~~~~~~~

I smiled and put an arm around my wise girl, Annabeth's, shoulders. She smiled back at me. The waves crashed on the beach we were sitting on.

I had invited her on a week long get away to Sandpiont, Idaho. You probably haven't heard of it. It's a small town but was one of the most beautiful towns in America.

We were sitting by Lake Ponderay, listening to the crickets and the birds chirp.

She sighed. "Percy, this is so beautiful..." she put her head on my shoulder.

I smiled. Ever sense we had been out of Tartarus, I had tried to take her to the most beautiful places in America.

"Not half as beautiful as you." I said.

She smiled then froze. She grabbed her dagger out of her pocket. "There's something behind us."

I uncapped riptide and stood up.

I looked into the forest behind us.

Yellow eyes.

"Annabeth get behind me!" I yelled as a huge wolf jumped out at me.

She threw her dagger at the beast and it embedded itself into its shoulder.

The thing yelped in fury and then charged.

It's teeth gleaned white as it stared unblinking into my eyes. I jumped forward and stabbed it.

It whimpered and ran back into the forest. It didn't even try to fight back. Strange for a monster...

I looked back at my wise girl. Suddenly, a boy a little younger than me ran out of the forest.

"I killed it! I killed the beast! I killed the one monster Percy Jackson couldn't!" He said proudly.

I looked at him confused. "I would've killed it but it ran off into the forest. It was very strange..."

He glared at me. "The great Percy Jackson can't even kill the beast? He ran off. So what? Chance it! It could've hurt someone else. Luckily for ever one else I was strong enough to kill it!"

"He's right, Percy!" Said Annabeth.

"What? Annabeth?" I said. She glared at me and ran over to the boy.

"Guess our camp will need a better leader. One that will protect us. Unlike you, Percy!" She spat my name out with venom in her voice.

"Ya, run along and help the monsters like you do, Percy!" Said Nate. Annabeth kissed his cheek and they walked into the forest leaving me confused on the beach.

I balled my fists against my sides. Then, the reality of the situation crashed down on me. Annabeth had only wanted the fame. She wanted to be the girl who was the girlfriend of a son of the big three. She never loved me... she only loved the fame.

I dropped my sword to my side in disbelief.

Nate looked back at me and glared with his eyes.

Yellow eyes.

~a little while later~

When I finally got back to camp, Nate and Annabeth had spread at least fifty rumors about me, all centered around the lie that I helped monsters.

No one trusted me anymore. Well, no one except Nico, Reyna, and the rest of the seven.

They were the on my ones that kept me at camp at all. If they weren't there I wouldn't of stayed a day. Annabeth hated me now. After all we've been through, after everything I've done for her, she choses to blindly trust my brother.

When everyone found out he was a son of Poseidon, they flocked to him like birds. He had been chosen as camp third in command, right after Chiron and Mr. D.

My friends said it was just a faze, but look where I am now.

~~~~~~~~~~end of Steve the flashback~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Now now, Percy. The gods are wise. They would've figured it out sooner or later." He sneered.

Poseidon nodded at him approvingly. "At least we still have one demigod who still protects his own." The rest of the gods nodded.

I grabbed onto the lightning cage. "What did you call all those years I protected you, returned things to you, and been like a slave to you!? What do you call me defeating Gia and Kronos? What do you call turning down immortality?"

Zeus just glared at me. "A cover up. A lie. Deception, if I need to say another. You will pay for what you have done."

I yelled and slammed my body against the bars of the cage. Suddenly the ground fell out from beneath me. The last thing I saw was the glare of my brothers yellow eyes gave me before falling into the pit.

I fell into Tartarus.
