This is just kinda a random idea that came to me…

I don't own the PJO characters..

A/N:: no one knows about the Olympians besides the Atlanteans if that doesn't make sense, when you read it, it will.

When Poseidon blames Athena for the death of his wife, Sally Jackson, he sends his lieutenant and son, Perseus Jackson to the surface world to hunt down the powerful children of Athena. Perseus heartlessly does his father's wishes, however, when he meets Annabeth Chase, will he choose revenge over love?

Atlantean's Choice: Prologue

Percy

My eyes took in the throne room over and over again. No matter how many times I entered the place, it always amazed me. The high domed, glass ceilings, the statues of the 12 Olympians that lined the center aisle, the Greek style columns, and how the blue and green glass mosaics on the walls that depicted Atlantis' history seemed to move, it all was still so new to me. It's only been a hundred years since I have been appointed Lieutenant and Second-in-Command to Lord Poseidon, and since my mom had been murdered.

FLASHBACK (1900s)

"You may rise," Poseidon's voice whispered in my ear. Then to the whole thrown room he boomed, "Son of Poseidon," he said, acknowledging me, "All hail, Perseus Jackson Lieutenant and Second-in-Command of Poseidon!" the current swirled around me. When it vanished, clasped in my hand was a solid trident and on the inside of my forearm I had a new tattoo. On the underside of my wrist was a tattoo of a trident—go figure—however, this time it had the letter 'L' intertwined between the spokes of the trident. A thin horizontal line appeared below the tattoo, representing first century of appointment.

Delphi swam up beside Poseidon, *not to be rude and indignant, master, but will he be replacing me as l-*

"No. I am not cruel, Delphi, the two of you will be partners."

*It is your choice*

I knew Delphi wasn't happy that I would be working with him. I couldn't say that I was excited to work with a dolphin either.

"Honor Guard!" my father called. The guards held up their tridents as Delphi and I swam out of the throne room.

FEW DAYS LATER

The seas erupted, and the earth shattered. The San Francisco got hit hard. The earthquake demolished the city that Sally Jackson had been living. You see, Sally Jackson was my mother and the one and only wife of Poseidon. And now, she was dead. Poseidon and I were grief-stricken.

I was standing my father's side in the throne room of Olympus when he ordered who did it. Athena had coolly acknowledged her doing.

"Why? What had you against her?!" Poseidon demanded.

"Nothing. It was what I had against you, Poseidon." Her voice dripped with venom, "You marry a mortal against the Oath, produce a son, train him in secret, and then on top of all that you make him your lieutenant! It is unacceptable!"

"You have no say in what I do with my son!"

I stood there listening to the two talk about me like I wasn't there. I growled in anger. "You didn't want a child of one of the Three because of the power right? That the child may turn against the gods? I wouldn't blame them if they did. The way you are acting right now! Fighting like a bunch of adolescence! You have no right to butt into another's life, even if you are gods. If you raise the child right, then there would be no reason for the thought of treason. If you, Athena, are unable to see that, how can you be called the goddess of wisdom? This is a waste of time, father, we don't need to be here fighting among your siblings. We know who did it. Let us go." I didn't even wait for my father's permission to leave. I let my gaze fall upon the silent throne room before disappearing.

"Poseidon…" Zeus' warning voice cut the silence.

"It is not my fault he acted like that. Athena killed his mother. And the boy makes a point." Poseidon countered, "I'll go talk to him." The Sea god disappeared into a spray of water.

Poseidon approached me as I swam aimlessly around Atlantis. "Percy, you could have easily been incinerated by Zeus. Offending Athena like that was completely uncalled for, leaving without dismissal, not even acknowledging Lord Zeus… however, I am proud of you. You stood up for yourself, and corrected the gods on our incredulous behavior." Poseidon surprised with what I though was going to be a major scolding which turned out to be praise. Talk about unexpected.

END OF FLASHBACK

"Percy, it has been over 100 years since your mother's death. I have a favor of you to ask. I know you have been seeking revenge against Athena. I have been thinking. It is time. I know it is a childish antic, but Athena has yet to be punished," my father's voice brought me back to the present.

"Yes father?"

"I want you to go into the mortal world and hunt down any child of Athena that you notice. Spare those who are small, with little power. they do not serve purpose in this. You must lay low, and do not let anyone catch you, suspect you of anything. You may interact, but do not get attached. This is a mission, not a vacation. You have the usual restraints. The Athenians are half-bloods, do as you wish with them."

I bowed and made my way through Atlantis towards the gate.

^^This is pretty much a prologue. It explains why Percy will be/is in the modern world hunting down powerful Athenians. I was told that it's kinda confusing (time-wise) so this should help: Everything that is italicized takes place 100 years before modern day.

anyways, if you have any ideas that you would like me to consider, feel free to message me *D*

just something i need to say: IF YOU HAVNT SEEN THE SEA OF MONSTERS TRAILER, WATCH IT NOW - please do -^^-
