Prologue

Percy POV

Look, I didn't want to be a half-blood. None of us did.

If you're reading this because you think you might be one, my advice is: close this book right now. Believe whatever lie your parents told you about your birth, and try to lead a normal life.

Being a half-blood is dangerous. It's scary. Most of the time, it gets you killed in painful, nasty ways.

So far, my life has been a crazy mix of ups and downs, but if I weren't a half-blood, I wouldn't have the family I have today.

First there's Annabeth. Daughter of Athena, official architect of Olympus, two time war hero, and my super hot girlfriend. I've known Annabeth since I was 12 years old, and we've fought side by side ever since.

Then there's Grover. Lord of the Wild, Chosen One of Pan, and my best friend. Grover was my satyr protector. He traveled with me to Camp Half-Blood and went on many quests with Annabeth and I.

Then there was Luke, son of Hermes. Luke was corrupted by the Titan Lord Kronos, but in the end Luke sacrificed his own life to stop him. He died a hero.

Then I met Clarisse. The daughter of the War god Ares and the most violent person I know, aside from Coach Hedge. My first encounter with Clarisse ended with toilet water in her face, but she later proved to be a trusting ally.

Next I met Thalia. Daughter of Zeus, Lieutenant of Artemis, and the most punk, badass person I know. Even though we try to kill each other sometimes, she's truly one of my best friends.

Next there's Nico. Son of Hades, Ghost King and one of the most powerful kids I've met. The first time I met Nico I was assigned to take him to camp, but the day didn't go exactly as planned. Through the years Nico and I have had our high and low points, but I life to believe we sit on good terms now.

Next I met Will. Will's the son of Apollo. He has the ability to heal most wounds. I guess you can say I owe him my life after he saved Annabeth. Despite this, I didn't really start to know him until he started dating Nico.

I met Hazel and Frank at Camp Jupiter. Hazel being the daughter of Pluto and Frank being an archer son of Mars, they were treated unfairly by the legion. They were decent enough to take mu under their wings when I showed up. After stopping the end of the world with them, you could say we've grown to be close friends.

Then there's Reyna, the praetor of Camp Jupiter, and the savior of our quest. Reyna is one of the most badass, selfless people you'll ever meet.

Then there's Jason. The almighty son of Jupiter, Roman praetor, bridge between the camps, and my bro. Like Thalia and I, Jason and I have our rough patches but he's become like a brother to me.

Next there's Piper, the most un-Aphrodite daughter of the love goddess at Camp Half-Blood. Piper is definitely someone you shouldn't underestimate. (She's even saved my sorry butt a few times.)

Then there's Leo, the fireball of the gang, literally. Leo's always inventing some new toy that half the time blows up in your face. The dude is a good guy to just have around.

Then there's Calypso, now Leo's girlfriend. Our past is a bit complicated, but Calypso definitely prefers her life as it is now. Plus, she's nice to have around because she can always one up Leo.

Next there's Travis and Conner Stoll, the sons of Hermes and the biggest pranksters in Camp Half-Blood. The dudes even wanted to loot a candy store in the middle of the Second Titan War. Although, I have noticed that Travis tends to focus his pranks on the counselor of the Demeter cabin, Katie.

Katie is the daughter of Demeter. She is definitely the most grounded of us all, except when she's yelling at the Stolls. Her half-sister, Miranda, also tends to keep two eyes on the Stoll brothers.

How did we all come together? Well that's the dangerous and scary part. You see, there was this little incident I was involved in called the Second Titan War. Basically, it was a four-year long fight against the Titan Lord Kronos. During that time I met Annabeth, Grover, Luke, Thalia, Clarisse, Nico, Will, Calypso, the Stolls, Katie and Miranda. When we won, we thought we may get some peace, but Gaea and Hera had different ideas. Hera (Juno, whatever) had the excellent idea to wipe my memory as well as Jason's and have us swap places. Then I met Frank, Hazel and Reyna. Later Annabeth decided to come find me, and she brought with along Jason, Piper and Leo. From there the 7 of us set off on a quest to stop Mother Earth from rising.

Along the way Annabeth and I fell into this pit you may know of called Tartarus. Sometime while we were down there Leo got blasted to Calypso's island. Anyways, we finished the quest, and thanks to Leo we defeated Gaea. Leo had sacrificed himself so he could return to Calypso and bring her back to the real world. When they returned a whole mess with some Norse gods and Apollo started up, but that's finished and brings us to now.

Prologues (as always) run a little short. This was just some background knowledge for new readers and humor from Percy's POV for the PJO fandom (or anything Rick writes). Also, this story will probably be my longest, so if it takes me more than a week to update I will make sure to have something good in store for you guys., that either being a long chapter filled with great moments or more than one chapter.

As always, any characters already alive or mentioned in any Heroes of Olympus or Harry Potter book belong to Uncle Rick and J. K. Rowling. Please follow and comment!
