Percy's POV
I don't know how it happened. At one point it was perfect and then Hera had to come along and ruin it. After the Titan war I had a good relationship and I was mending mentally. Then we fell into the pit.
After we got out we weren't the same. When we got out I put up facades, so no one could see I was broken inside. So, I could be the fearless leader everyone thought I was. So, we could win the war.
Maybe it was the fact that my facades were flawless or that the one person who always saw was broken to or maybe it was that no one believed I could break and so they didn't bother to check. Either way after the war and after all the pressure one thing pushed me over the edge…
My mum and Paul died in a car crash. There was a drunk driver and they were coming home from a teacher's party. To me it seemed like a joke. After everything I've lived through all the wars, battles, quests and monsters for them to die such an abnormal death.
After that I broke. I caved in on myself. I stopped coming to meals and training. I just stayed in my cabin. Many people tried to coax me out of my shell. All of the seven (excluding Annabeth) tried to just bring me to a meal or spar with them but it never worked I just stopped working. They sent Nico in to talk to me and he tried to help saying the pain of loss gets better, but I just blocked him out. One last event pushed me to move on and leave.
Flashback
A month passed and the one person who hadn't come to see me came. She walked in deadly skinny and with dark bags underneath her eyes.
"Percy, we need to talk," she said in a broken but clear voice
"Go away!" I shouted into my pillow
"Percy, I have to tell you something!" she shouted back in a pleading voice
That got my attention. How could I do this to her? She is the one person left in this world that has always been by my side from age 12. "What is it Wise Girl?" I said in a soft voice sitting up on my bed and gesturing for her to sit next to me.
"I'm leaving," she whispered
I sat on the bed as my world shattered around me. How could she do this to me? I though she loved me? What did I do wrong?
"Percy it's not you. You haven't done anything wrong. I'm leaving because I can't stay here. Not when every time I turn a corner I think of everyone I've lost because of the wars. I love you Percy, but I can't stay with you. We're both broken, and we need time to mend, but not together." She explained. Then she kissed me and whispered "Goodbye Seaweed brain," as she ran of towards off towards Thalia's tree.
End of Flashback
Two weeks after that I pulled myself together and decided I needed to get away as well. I gathered my stuff and walked out of camp never looking back.
