A/N: So, I've decided to go through all the chapters so far and correct them. I've noticed also that the chapters may feel extremely rushed, so I'm going to fix that as well. You probably wont have to read the chapters again as it's mostly filler. But it might help you understand the story.


Prologue: Trent Giant

It was the last day of school for Percy and for once he hadn't gotten into any trouble at all this year! He couldn't believe it! Not once had he been sent to the principal's office or given detention. He even got his first A this year. Percy settled into his seat in Math class as the bell rung and he was more than excited to start this day.

"Good morning class, Mrs. Jordan is sick today and you have been assigned a test. On everything you learned this year. You may begin when you get the test. If you have any questions you may ask me, and my name is Ms. McCormick," the substitute teacher said. Nobody could believe it; they had a substitute on the last day of school and to top it off they were assigned a test. It was about halfway into the class when someone sneezed.

"Bless you," Percy said. At this, the substitute perked up. She looked angry that a student had dared speak in her class. She'd have to give him detention so the other students wouldn't follow his example.

"Mr. Jackson, you will be serving detention with me this afternoon!" the teacher said, but she wasn't done as Percy started to reply, "Do you want to come tomorrow as well?"

"No, Ms. McCormick. I was just being polite" Percy said dejectedly, it had been going so well. But now he had to stay after school today, and with a sub no less! Half the class pitied Percy, while Trent and his friends were snickering. How is it that I'm called out for being polite, while these jerk-offs sit in the back and laugh their asses off? Percy thought. It's just not fair.

"Good. I'd hate to give you detention after the school year ended." Gods, she must hate torturing students, Percy thought. He hadn't done anything wrong. He'd just been polite! It was about five minutes before the bell and Trent threw a paper airplane across the room, Ms. McCormick didn't miss this action though, and scolded them.

"You will be staying after as well Mr. Giant," the sub said.

Trent tried to sound ashamed but failed miserably, "I'm sorry Ms. McCormick." The substitute snorted at his half-assed apology as the bell rang. All of the students got up out of their chairs and left.

*Fast forward to the end of the day*

As the final bell for the day rang, Percy called his Wise Girl to tell her he'd be late to camp. The phone went almost immediately to voicemail, but had rung a few times. This told Percy the call had been rejected.

"Hey Annabeth, was just calling to let you know I will be late today. I got detention, can you believe it? Neither can I. Anyways, love you. Bye." Percy slowly plodded along to his prison sentence. The teacher would probably make him do something horrible, and the longer he could procrastinate would be the less time he had to work.

"Ah, yes. Mr. Jackson, you will be washing the chalkboards with Mr. Giant here," Ms. McCormick drawled. "I expect it to be done by the time you have to leave." The teacher walked out, leaving Trent and Percy alone. The door suddenly slammed shut and locked itself with a click.

"Perseus Jackson, son of Poseidon, how stupid are you? I thought you would have noticed a Cyclops. In your own school no less! No matter. I will kill you and then feast on your flesh!" Trent said.

"No you won't, I will be the only one doing any killing here," the son of Poseidon replied, looking straight into Trent's eye, "That is unless you kill yourself." Trent looked outraged and swung wildly at Percy, missing him by a foot at least. Percy retaliated with a quick swipe of his fist and narrowly missed the Cyclops. Now the fight started in earnest. The giant threw a desk at Percy which he just ducked under. The son of Poseidon began fumbling in his pocket for his pen Riptide as another desk came flying into his field of view. He dove to the side as Trent the giant went at him, arms swinging wildly. Finally! Percy had just managed to get out his pen and click it into the Celestial Bronze sword it really was. He dodged a wild swing from Trent as he slashed open the giant's back. Trent barely seemed to notice as he came at Percy again. With a wild slash the fight was over as the giant's head fell from his body. Of course something else had to go wrong too right? Percy has known he has terrible luck, and the fates seem keen on showing it to him time and time again. Just then Ms. McCormick walked into the room and, well, she shrieked so loud Percy swore the building shook. Moments later the principal walked in and he expelled Percy on the spot. Then the teachers walked out of the room; leaving Percy to clean up the mess he made.

Percy kicked the front desk and broke 3 of his toes, "Gods damn it! Why the fuck does everything have to go so fucking wrong when it was going so right for once?" Percy began to limo home. He munched on some ambrosia to help his toes, but it didn't do very much. Percy arrived home to a disappointed mother, but she faded out of his vision as he saw his Wise Girl in the kitchen.

"Hey Annabeth! How's it going?" he said meekly, preparing himself for the onslaught of mental beatings he was about to get.

"Really? Detention and all you can say is 'How's it going?'! Seriously Seaweed Brain, you can be so pathetic sometimes!" Annabeth huffed when she said this. "This is the ONLY time it's happened all year. On the last day of school even! Don't you remember a few years ago when this happened? Why'd you let your guard down?"

"I'm sorry Annabeth. It was a really stupid thing that got me my prison sentence," Percy said quickly, trying to lessen the tension in the room. "All I said was 'Bless you' and all of a sudden I was given detention."

"Only you could have that happen to you Perce," Annabeth said as she shook her head. "Please say you're at least ready to go to camp?" There was a glimmer of hopefulness in her eyes; she hoped for once he had packed before school and not after.

"I just gotta grab my clothes, Wise Girl. Be right back." He ran up to his room and started throwing clothes into his bag, he knew Annabeth would leave without him because it had happened before. Percy came down a few minutes later right as Annabeth was going to the front door to leave. "Okay let's go."

"Finally! Why don't you ever pack before school?" Annabeth questioned. "You could be almost halfway to camp by now you know."

"Yeah, yeah, c'mon Wise Girl, since you're in such a rush. You can drive," Percy replied. "Let's just hope there aren't any spiders on the dash, okay?" Annabeth grumbled something about drowning him as they settled into their seats. Annabeth backed up as they began to head to camp.


A/N: So, here's my first story, I'm still not sure what the pairing will be. So I'm leaving it up to you guys. Please read and review, it would make my day!
