Chapter 1: Who the heck is he?!
They say love is a boon to the unlucky. Or it can make people lucky. Or it can be the one key that you need to unlock yourself to release your fears and worry. It can make or destroy you. In my opinion? Love is a Secret Poison.
My name is Penny Jackson,daughter of Poseidon. And I'm immortal.
Wanna know how? After the defeat of Kronos,the gods offered immortality to Percy,but he refused for Annabeth. Cute right? So they gave the immortality to me. It has upsides,and downsides.
The good thing is I won't die. But turns out,it's actually possible for immortals to die,and since I'm just a junior or whatever,my immortality isn't that strong. So,it's kinda like the Hunters of Artemis thing. If I don't get hurt,I'll be fine.
We entered the Palace. Damn,the throne room makes the New York Times Square look like a broom closet. It was that huge. The gods all were sitting in their thrones,looking all majestic and stuff. I caught Poseidon's eye,and he gave me a wink. I smiled.
"Heroes!" Zeus's voice echoed around. We silently stepped forward and dropped on our knees. (I was silently gagging)
"Rise" he said,his voice calmer. We all got back on our feet,and Zeus started droning on about the bravery and courage of the gods,only once in a while including us demigods (In my case,I'm a Demigod and a god) and me and Percy quickly exchanged looks.
Here we go again.
I let my thoughts wander elsewhere. Finally,Gaea was gone. We could live in peace. Well,if be spending the rest of my immortal life at Camp,because hey,an immortal can't really go to school right? They'd obviously see that I'm not growing. And not getting any smarter.
Poseidon told me I'll be able to do many things once the immortality settles in. And that could take,oh, I dunno,ten years or so?
I caught Hermes's eyes,and he winked at me. I gave him a tiny smile. Unlike Percy,I didn't really meet most of the gods. I only know Artemis,Hermes and my dad of course. I've spoken to Hestia once,but other than that,no one much. My gaze travelled upon all the gods,and suddenly,my heart stopped.
What I experienced from this moment on was something I never expected. Something that would change my life completely.
He was looking at me. Straight at me. His blue eyes were fixed on me,making me feel...strange. The tip of his tongue was moistening his lips,and his mouth was slightly open,and his blue eyes were lusty. Suddenly he smirked,and I turned away at once,heart pounding.
That didn't happen. That didn't happen. That didn't happen.
Who the heck was he?!
John Cena,a tiny voice in my head said.
Oh shut up me.
Gods the way he was looking at me,it was sending shivers down my spine. I quickly looked back at him,only to see him smirking,as if pleased with himself. I looked away at once,gulping. Oh my gods,what's wrong with me?
Now one thing about me; I don't get attracted to a guy easily. I've never even thought of being in a relationship. But suddenly,within a millisecond,a hundred images started drifting inside my mind.
"Percy." I whispered,but he didn't hear me. Probably was mentally sleeping. The more I stayed in front of him,the more aware I was about my surroundings. For the love of Hades,make it stop. He was extremely intimidating,making my skin itch.
"I stand by my last oath Lord Zeus" Percy said,snapping me back to the present. "To claim demigods and bring them to camp before they come of age."
Zeus's lip curled "Very well. It before you leave,we require Penny Jackson."
My heart jumped. Schist,I was hoping that this wouldn't happen. Now that...that...God knew my name,if he didn't know it before. Swallowing,I stepped forward.
"We require a few answers from you,based on the questions we ask. Preferably just you. Heroes,we are forever in your debt." Zeus added to the others. Percy gave me a look,but everyone nodded and slowly walked out.
I heard the huge doors close with a thud,and I mentally gulped. I was here with eleven gods and one super hot...super hot...macho God?
"You'll be staying up on Olympus." Zeus said calmly. I blinked.
"Uh..sorry?" I asked.
"As you already know,you are now an immortal,but not technically a God. Your fate is still tied to mortals. I request you to stay on Olympus so we can...see to that."
He finished it off with a delicate tone of voice that made me wonder if he was going to keep me in chains and see if I can go for a week without eating. Hey,I need a cheeseburger everyday.
Okay,not everyday,but you get the picture.
"Um...okay.." I said,not sure of what to say. For some stupid reason,I wanted to look at that...God. (Seriously,I can't even call him a God. He is way to devilishly handsome for that)
Zeus nodded firmly "In that case,the council is dismissed."
The Gods,one by one,slowly started getting up. My father smiled and waited for me in front his throne. Before walking towards him,I quickly turned around and to my surprise,I saw him giving me a converted look and a little smirk before vanishing. My knees went weak,but I managed to walk casually towards my dad.
"Are you okay,my dear?" He asked. I always felt reassured whenever Poseidon was around. But now...all I could think about was...
Fine." I nodded "just,surprised that I'll have to be staying here for a few..weeks."
He smiled at me "You'll get used to it. I'll join you in your chambers for breakfast. I'm not sure if staying anywhere near Lord Zeus is wise. Especially for you."
"Why?"
"We shall discuss that in the morning. I'll show you to your room."
I nodded and he turned and started leading me to a corridor. We turned right two times,but I wasn't paying attention that much. I couldn't get his face out of my mind. The way he was staring at me...it gave me shivers just thinking about it.
"Here we are" he said,snapping me to the present. We stopped in front of a door.
"Goodnight Penny." He said,patting my shoulder before leaving. I took a deep breath and entered.
Oh my freaking Gods.
It was huge. Huge. It was a giant TV,a huge King sized bed,a walk through closet,a desk and many other things,curtains drawn over the window. I walked towards it and opened the curtains. It was already night time,and it overlooked the garden of Olympus. Gods it was amazing.
Grinning I turned and sat on my bed. It was soft and plushy,just right,with many pillows. Gods,this was way to much.
I grabbed one pillow and hugged it. It was cold and soft,and made me feel floaty and free. Don't ask me why. Sighing,I put the pillow back,when I saw something sticking on the pillow. A paper.
Go in your walk-through closet and close the door behind you. Now.
I already knew who it was,and my skin started tingling again.
Kill me for restarting the story,I know. I had 52 freaking reviews and 14 following,13favs. It was hard doing this,but welcome to the new and improved-
Shut up. Let's see how the story goes,and if you add any Arenny/Pares/Penares...ugh,the names are horrible.
Ares: I like them
Frank: I'm going to be sick
