This is a story that was made for a friend whose father recently committed suicide leaving behind three girls ages 8-14. May all those who couldn't find happiness on Earth rest in peace.

They Were Still Murdered

Chapter 1-
I Won't Be There

"Even though they were the ones who ended their own life other things caused it. Other people killed them with their words and behavior to that person. Even though they committed suicide they were still murdered, by us." -Anonymous

Percy POV (A/N Yes I went there)

Even for demigod standards Percy's life sucked. A hero's life is always tragic. Oh shut up mind. Yeah I had been through the whole thing with Kronos and thought his life would be normal, well as normal as a demigod's life could be. But noooo, not his, no. He got abducted for months by his crazy old hippie lady named Hera, (or Juno, both are equally a pain,) here's a scary thought, his aunt. He fought a war against the giants and they won with the cost of many lives. Oh gods, I miss the Stolls, even with all their pranks. Clarissa will never again play Capture the Flag and Chris will never hold her hand while Leo will never get to build the chicken nugget smokescreen. Will will never again get to curse the Ares Cabin, Tyson will never get to finish the new shield/watch, and Katie will never garden again. Too many…. But the worst was in his mortal family, Sally and Paul were killed in a crash and with that his mom's unborn child. After the war I only had Grover, who was always away finding halfbloods, Frank and Hazel, both in New Rome, Nico, who was always in the Underworld, Thalia, but she was always with the Hunters, and at camp just had Pollux, Malcolm from the Athena cabin, (weird huh?) and Annabeth. I had turned down immortality again to get Hades and Hestia thrones so I knew I would see my loved ones again. But things got a lot worse, and it came with this son of a gorgon named Trevor.

I was talking with Pollux and Malcolm about Capture the Flag strategies when I saw Grover dragging someone up the hill as one measly hellhound was chasing them. Being the loyal friend and rushed out to help and cover the pair as they crossed the boundary. The hellhound was stupid and I killed it easily. I helped Grover along with my two fiends lug this guy to the Big House where Chiron had to give the usual the gods are real and the west is now in America yada yada yada. But then this kid, Trevor, who looked to be 16 asked who was his dad and then things got bad. A trident appeared and I got stuck with a brother.

At first it was fine until I realized he had the ego the size of the Pacific that could rival all the Olympians put together. He got a quest to kill this Hydra that was on Wall Street and he took Annabeth and Grover. I guess Trevor passed out with every monster they met but that didn't stop him from being the new hero of camp. I just shrugged it off but it hurt when no one minus Pollux and Malcolm comforted me when I found out about my parents' deaths. I had to go on a quest from Athena to own my worth to date Annabeth. I had to do the 12 Labors of Hercules and beat Landon which I did in less than 3 months. When I came back I found just Malcolm, Pollux, Nico, and Thalia, (the Hunters were there but they seemed really uncomfortable,) because they were all there to congratulate me. I wanted to know where Annabeth was but they avoided my gaze. Just then I heard cheering from the beach so naturally I ran over. I noticed the Olympians were there, (minus Apollo, Hermes, Hestia, Artemis, Hades, and surprisingly Athena, Hera, and Dionysus. I saw my dad there grinning as his voice boomed through the area.

"I would like to congratulate my favorite son, in fact my favorite child ever, on his great job and protecting Olympus by killing all of those monsters and his approved relationship."

I was blushing but then my blood ran cold. "Congrats Trevor and a thousand blessings on you and your girlfriend Annabeth!"

I felt like my heart had been pierced as I saw Trevor making out with her… She wouldn't do it but she did. I couldn't help myself but announce myself.

"What in Hades' name do you think you are doing?"

They broke apart and Trevor just grinned and cockily replied.

"Not my fault this girl digs me, the greatest hero ever, you are just lame, and I could beat you in a minute."

My blood roared in my ears especially seeing everyone nod, including Annabeth and Poseidon. "Is that a challenge? Let's start right now."

Drawing Riptide I charge. Trevor pulled out Current and our blades met. Within seconds I had disarmed him but I didn't kill him. I turned a left as I called back spitting every syllable out venomously.

"I care less about what happens with you guys no. And I won't help no you have the greatest hero ever, your Savior of Olympus with you right dad?"

Poseidon sputtered out, 'P-P-P-Percy, calm down, I still care…"

Annabeth stammered at the same time, "It isn't like that."

"Yeah you care! I know you cared a lot when mom died and I know Annabeth Chase. You cheated on my you whore and to think I did the 12 Labors of Hercules and defeated Landon to get permission from your mom but nope! Go back to Tartarus and I won't fall with you. After everything. I went to hell for you and you just…" I was so angry I just wanted to hit something. "You know what, I will tell you something. The next time you all are in trouble I won't be there, Perseus Jackson won't help at all because he is dead. You all have murdered him."

With that I turned on my heel and in the distance I saw my last real friends, the Hunters, and the missing Olympians by Thalia's tree looking sad. Marching off I was soon in the woods by the creek where I was first claimed and I knelt down and started to cry. I am still here, five minutes later, with my heart shattered. There is nothing left, too much pain. Maybe I could just make everyone happy, the living who want to forget me, and they dead who love me.

Thank you for reading and please review. I will update as soon as possible. If you want you can read my other story Second Chance where ten demigods and four Olympians leave and become even more powerful and are needed back on Earth after they were hurt badly by those closest to them who now require their help. Thank you so much for reading this chapter of They Were Still Murdered. This is Avid Reader0907 signing out.
