Chapter 1
Arthur's POV
My idiotic manservant and I were going hunting. We caught 16 rabbits, 3 deer, and a few elk. Overall, it had been a good day. Until the thunder came. And the lightning. And the rain. And the "Geez, Annabeth. I take one step to the left and you stab me because of a spider". Merlin looked up, as if he knew that voice, but quickly looked back down when he saw me looking at him. "Well, Percy, have you forgotten the ETA THRILL RIDE -O- LOVE AND DEATH incident? And would it kill you to make it stop raining?" A female voice said. Merlin looked happy all of a sudden. The person I assumed was Percy said "Ask Jason and Thalia to make it stop raining, there the children of Zeus". Merlin mumbled something that sounded like "You IDIOT Percy!" I had enough. I followed the constant arguing between these people. Luckily the rain and thunder and lightning had stopped. I came to a clearing, and saw two girls and three boys. One of the girls was holding lightning bolt and standing in the middle of what looked like a tiny thunderstorm. The other girl was holding a knife. A boy with black hair and sea green eyes that looked a lot like Merlin was holding a bronze sword and standing in his own storm of water type thing, Merlin told me it was called a hurricane. The boy to his left looked slightly younger than him, with black eyes instead of green. He was in a black chariot, as Merlin called it, and was holding a sword that was black as night. He was looking at the sky and saying "Curse you Zeus". Thunder rumbled in the distance. The boy next to the scary kid cursing some unknown apparently crazy guy was holding a gold sword sparking with lightning. He was FLOATING IN MIDAIR. I was freaked out by this, but Merlin looked completely calm. He said "Hello brother". The boy with the bronze sword looked up, startled, but quickly regained his composure and said "What up, kelp head?" Merlin responded "Watch it, Seaweed Brain". I was confused as heck. The floating guy said "Hey Emrys". I looked at Merlin. "You're name is Emrys?" He nodded. "But I prefer Merlin". These people were weird. I took out my sword and charged. Suddenly, a wall of water crashed over me. I got up coughing and completely wet. There was a fish in my ear. A FISH? WHERE DID THAT COME FROM? The kid with green eyes helped me up. I noticed that everyone was wet EXCEPT for Merlin and… that kid. Green Eyes said "By the way, my name is Percy. I'm Emrys's brother well, half-brother really. The girl with the blonde hair is my girlfriend Annabeth, daughter of Athena. The girl with black hair and the distressed black clothing is Thalia, daughter of Zeus. The boy with the gold sword is Thalia's brother, Jason, son of Zeus, raised as a son of Jupiter. Emrys and I are the sons of Poseidon, and this kid with black eyes and the black sword is Nico, son of Hades. Thalia, Nico, and Jason are I and Emrys's cousins...I'm guessing you don't know about the Greek gods and Goddesses, do you?" I shook my head. "Well, there called the Olympians. There immortal, all powerful, never dying greater beings, many of which happen to be immortal, all powerful, never dying overgrown brats. Namely Dionysus, Ares, and Zeus" Percy said. Thunder rumbled in the distance. " Dionysus, Ares, and Zeus who are watching us right now. Anyway, sometimes the Olympians come down from Olympus, where they live, and have kids with mortals. Those kids are called demi-gods, or half-bloods." I was still confused. Percy said "Emrys, Annabeth, Nico, Thalia, Jason and I are Demi-gods". I gave them a look that said "So?" Merlin whispered to me "Demi-god means half god. We have the powers our godly parents do. Were sort of like mortal Olympians. A lot of the people your father kills for having magic are really demi-gods who couldn't control their powers. Your mother, by the way, was Athena". I was having trouble taking all this in. These people were half god? And according to them, I was one of them. "That's why I'm here. To make sure you get to camp safely" Merlin said. I responded with "Camp? What Camp?" Merlin reached into his bag and took out an orange T-shirt. It said CAMP HALF-BLOOD on it. "That's where were going" Percy said. He took out a huge gold coin and said "Stethi, o harma diaboles". The coin sunk into the ground, and a blood red pool appeared and formed itself into a… thing. Merlin told me it was a Gray Sisters New York Taxi. I got in after the other 6, and the Gray sisters started driving, as Merlin told me. He also told me that as soon as we got to camp, his name would be Emrys and his hair would look more like mine, but it would be black merging into blonde. I guess I could understand that. His eyes would also be sea green, not blue. He said that blue eyes were the mark of the evil titan Oceanus, the enemy of his father. He just bended the mists so he wouldn't look like Poseidon away from camp, and our clothes would change as soon as we got to 2011. We would be wearing jeans and the orange camp shirts. I had no clue what jeans were. "When we get to camp, I'm going to go back into the training thing. I'm out of practice, and you guys need me for the Giants Revenge." Emrys said. "What Giant's Revenge?" I asked. Jason answered:
"Seven half-bloods shall answer the call,
To storm or fire, the world must fall.
An oath to keep with a final breath,
And foes bear arms to the doors of death."
There was complete silence before Emrys somewhat explained that creepy poem. "The prophecy was only decreed last year, so we don't know much. But there's this evil giant dude who's trying to overthrow Olympus along with Gaia, Titan of the Earth. We defeated Kronos last year, but even that almost destroyed Olympus. Gaia is ten times more powerful, and Porphyrion, the evil giant, was created to kill the un-killable, Jason and Thalia's dad, The King of the Gods. The other evil giant dudes were created to kill the other Olympians. If that happens, that would be… really bad. Jason and Thalia have storm abilities along with Percy and I, and Zeus and Poseidon, and Hephaestus, and his son Leo, have powers over fire. Nico and Hades control the dead, but Gaia opened the doors of death, letting all the monsters in Tatarus loose, and we suspect that's how Kronos escaped last year. As for the oath, it's probably an oath made on the river styx, which means someone is destined to die, but we don't know who, of when, or even if it is on the river styx, it could just as easily be a swear on the fates or an oath made to Artemis to become a Huntress… Oh, look. Were at camp… last one to the lava rock climbing wall is a Kindly One!" I didn't know what he was talking about, but all six of them got out of the taxi and ran to the camp. I followed suit, but I didn't know where the rock wall was. "Arthur's a kindly one!" Jason shouted. There was a sudden noise, and the rest of the campers went to their cabins. "I'm going to try out that rock climbing wall tomorrow!" I called. "And where do I go?" Emrys responded "Go to cabin 5. If you have any questions, go to the big house, or talk to me in Cabin 3". I shrugged and went to Cabin 5. As soon as I walked in, the campers were lining up. They told me to get in the back. Not wanting to make any enemies, I listened to them. Then we walked out the door. We went to this thing in the center of camp and sat down. I saw Emrys in the front, sitting at this section of three tables. I wondered why, so I asked the person sitting closest to me. Annabeth. I blushed slightly, feeling stupid. "Why are those tables like that?" I asked. She looked at me like I was an idiot. "Those are the tables for the kids of the big three". "The Big Three?" I asked. She rolled her eyes. "The three most powerful gods in existence. Just two years ago, Percy nearly destroyed an entire mountain, and Emrys made a huge wave of water out of half the ocean. Poseidon was not happy about that… Jason destroyed Mount Orthys last year and defeated Krios, and helped Percy topple the black throne of Kronos. Thalia became a powerful Huntress, and is now immortal, and Nico's the king of Ghosts and can conjure up an entire army of the dead at will, and do something called "Shadow travel", oh, and did I mention that Emrys, Jason and Percy all have girlfriends?". "Who's Emrys's girlfriend?" " Alyssa. She was another demigod sent back in time to recruit more. Her name was Freya back then."
