Percy Jackson and the Olympians
CHAPTER1
"Hey! Wait up already!"
I heard the voice but just kept on walking. School was bad enough when you were dyslexic but also when you were a half-blood son of Poseidon and were constantly getting kicked out of your schools. Stupid crappy monsters. UGH!!!
The voice got closer.
"Dude! What the hell!? Percy!"
The person sounded familiar but I didn't feel like looking back. I was headed toward school, considering it was 7 in the morning I didn't feel like talking either. I walked and walked the voice still yelling every step I took.
Then I came across a puddle. I looked down seeing my image reflecting back at me. I would say I was fairly built; I was muscular, no doubt because I was always training and fighting monsters. I had brown shaggy hair and emerald green eyes just like my dad's. But, my favorite thing about what I saw was that I was taken.
I had a beautiful, blonde haired, half-blood girlfriend. She had long wavy hair and gray eyes like her mom's, Athena, and her half-blood siblings. Also like them, she had a to die for tan. Her name was Annabeth, my Wise Girl. That was her nickname; I've been calling her that since we first met when we were 12, now we were 16. I haven't told her yet but I was in love with her.
I kept looking in the puddle, lost in my thoughts of her.
"Dude! Dude! Oh, God almost out of time. Percy!"
A few seconds later, I heard stumbling and yelling. Then I saw someone else in the puddle, and I was furious with myself for not knowing who it was before.
"What are you doing here? Are you here to tell me I have more half-bloods to fight cause I'm still not over losing all my friends against Kronos?"
He looked upset about the whole 'losing friends' thing. I turned to him waiting for his answer.
"So are you going to tell me? Grover, hello?"
Me and Grover didn't end up at a good end with him almost killing my whole family, and then just disappearing. We used to be best friends. But that all changed. Annabeth wanted us to forget about that but we haven't really talked.
"Don't worry, no fights. Just something I'm trying to save you from." He said it like he was just sitting around doing nothing.
"Oh, ok. Ill just go to school. Don't be mad about failing your mission. What's that? Why? Only because you didn't tell me why I have to go with you right?"
"How do you know I'm on a mission?"
"I know things."
"Of course." He said sarcastically. Then he told me, obviously serious. "I'm here to get you back to camp. There's been a warning that monsters were on the loose all over the world. They want all half-bloods back because the monsters are on a killing streak. At least 20 campers were already killed."
"How's Annabeth? Is she okay? She better be!" I said. Then, just before I picked him up by his shirt, he spoke.
"No. Dude, don't worry. She's waiting for you. I made sure she was back first, for you. It didn't make her happy, but I knew you would want that."
I smiled. He still acted like my best friend still. I almost hugged him. He was Annabeth's best friend, too. I didn't really count.
I sighed, "Fine, let's go, fly shall we?" I looked at him. I was glad to see him smiling too. "Sorry about the whole being mad at you thing man. Really, I'm sorry."
"Don't worry Percy. Let's just get to camp before Annabeth gets mad."
We shuddered. I imagined her getting mad at me like she used to, a sorta scary thought, her always yelling at me was a scary part.
"Ya, let's go."
I turned to the sky and whistled, and me and Grover waited in silence. After a couple seconds, the air was forced harder and it was feeling chillier. I heard the sound of wings flapping and soon the figure of my pegesi, Blackjack, was coming toward us talking to me in my head.
Hey boss what's up?
"Hey bud we need to get to camp. Can you deal?"
Of course boss.
"Sweet, let's go"
"You just cant wait to see Annabeth, can you?"
"Uh, thanks officer DUH!"
"No problem just don't make out in front of me."
"Fine. Just don't be there when we make out."
Sorry to interrupt you, boss, but she's already as mad as Satan can get.
"Great we'll have to get there fast then. Let's go."
CHAPTER 2
When we got to camp, Annabeth was waiting at the hill, petting the dragon that protected the borders. We got off Blackjack and she came up running, very very mad. Blackjack flew away and Grover ran to the dragon, scared to be near her. I wish I could run away too but I stood my ground. She stopped in font of me and crossed her arms. Her blonde wavy hair fell around her shoulders and over part of her arms. Her gray eyes looked red filled with fury. She was only up to my chin, much shorter than me.
Grover started to move down the hill, but Annabeth turned on him and growled. He screamed but stood still. I stared, open mouthed.
She turned back to me and sighed. Then, in one second, all the fury was gone and she stood before me looking helpless. Her gray eyes were back to normal and her expression went from Satan to Lost Little Girl. She stepped into my arms and hugged me, her hair blowing around me and her. She started to cry, shaking and shaking. A crowd started forming, so I took her hand and led her away. When I passed Grover I gave him a nod and he nodded back, as in "we're cool."
I took her down the hill, away from all the people; I led her toward the cabins, even though we were going past that.
"So are you okay?" I asked her.
"Ya," she sniffed. "I'm just so glad your alright. I was freaking out wondering if you weren't coming or not"
"Freaking out? I heard you were scarier than Satan himself."
"Do you always have to belive what you hear?"
I put my arm around her and went down to the sandy beach.
"No. Sit down." We sat on the sand and I kissed her. She was wearing her camp t-shirt and jeans while I was wearing a white shirt and jeans which she loved.
