Percy Jackson Story- A year in the mountains
Hey guys, Demonic Fire here. I was reading another persons fan fiction and got the idea for my story from this. I have never stolen anyone else's ideas and won't start now but I warn you, some things are more or less the same as the other person's story. So, if I can make it up to them it's by doing this. Read their story The Forgotten. It's a great read and well written. So, please do that.
Disclaimer: I do not own Percy Jackson and the Olympians.
Chapter 1: Heartbreak
*Percy's POV*
I was really excited. Today, me and Annabeth were going to take a day to ourselves. We were going down to the beach for a day of complete privacy. I walked down to Athena's cabin and was about to knock on the door when Annabeth's half brother Malcolm stepped out. He looked at me with a fearful expression and shot straight back in to the cabin. I could hear hushed voices speaking rapidly. Deciding I'd had enough, I barged straight in and saw a sight I thought I'd never see. Annabeth had her arms wrapped around the new kid, Jeff, son of Ares. I heard her scream out and heard him laugh. Malcolm had retreated into a corner and hid there. "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE!" I roared at them. Jeff stood up, sneering at me. "Isn't it obvious? You're 'girlfriend' doesn't love you anymore. She's fallen for me now. She's forgotten all about you!" I looked at Annabeth, praying in my mind that what he said was not true. She just shook her head, tears falling down her eyes. She didn't say anything, but she didn't have to. I got the message. "Why Annabeth? I thought you cared for me?" Jeff laughed again. "Care for you? Ha, why would she care for a little whelp that lives with his whore mother, when she has me?" That did it. I was going to let him off, even if he did steal Annabeth from me but insulting my mom crossed the line. I grabbed him by the front of his t-shirt and punched him right in the nose. He fell to the ground and his nose started bleeding. I didn't even give him a chance to get up, as I knelt down beside him and hit him again and again. I didn't stop until I felt something cut me across the right eye. I roared in pain and looked up to see Annabeth, standing there with her dagger in her hand. I stood up and slowly walked towards her. She backed away slowly and eventually she fell onto her bed. I grabbed the dagger off of her and threw it against the wall. Then I grabbed her by the shoulder and threw her to the ground. I then saw Jeff out of the corner of my eye, crawling towards the dagger. I steeped over to him and kicked him hard in the head. I watched as he fell unconscious. I then took one last look at a frightened Annabeth and strode out the door.
I had been walking down the beach for a while when I heard Thalia's voice. "Perseus Jackson, what the hell did you do?" Thinking she was talking about Annabeth, I tried to say what happened but she cut me off. "How could you set the Big House on fire like that? What has Chiron ever done to you?" Surprised by this, I rushed towards the Big House. Sure enough it was smoking, as if a huge fire had been there. Chiron approached me sadly. "Why Percy? Why have you done this?" Percy looked at him, and then said, "I didn't do this! I couldn't, I've been down at the beach all day. How could you think that it was me?" Chiron sighed, "Because child, we found Riptide in there. Only you have access to it." I felt in my pocket, Riptide was still there. I was about to respond when Annabeth piped up with, "Don't try to deny it Percy! We all know you did it, even Chiron knows it!" I glared at her, then over at the Ares cabin. Every one of them was smirking and making gestures with their hands as if they were lighting a lighter. I felt anger well up inside of me. Annabeth opened her mouth to say something but I just pointed at her and said "Shut up!" Then I turned to face the campers. "All of you have shunned me, ever since Jeff arrived. He completed one quest to save a demi god from a bunch of crazed satyrs. He came back a hero! Only because he was the only survivor. You greeted him with open arms after he caused the death of three other demi gods. I came back a year ago, after surviving the bomb on the Princess Andromeda and you all blamed me except for Grover and Silena. Now, now I find that you all believe that I, a son of Poseidon who should have nothing to do with fire, set Chiron's home alight? This is bullshit! I'm leaving!" I spun around and stalked off. I went into my cabin and packed the essentials for my departure. I took all my clothes, some nectar and ambrosia and Riptide. I stuffed them into my travel bag, slung it over my shoulder and turned to walk out. Before I did, I went into my bathroom and looked at the cut Annabeth had given me. It was a diagonal cut from the corner of one side of my eye to the cheekbone of the other side. I touched it lightly and when I felt no pain I smiled. 'You may have left a mark on me Annabeth, but just as I feel nothing from the wound, I feel nothing for you." Suddenly, I felt a thumping pain in my head, as if two parts of me were fighting over Annabeth. One side of me could never forgive her, while the other begged me to forgive her. I grabbed both sides of my head and cried out in pain. In an attempt to stop the mental torture I was going through I punched the mirror, breaking it into small pieces. When that didn't work, I splashed my face with water. Normally, this wouldn't help but me being a son of Poseidon; well it does have its benefits. I took a moment to gather myself together then I walked out of the cabin. As I got to Thalia's tree I turned around and took one last look at Camp Half-Blood, a place which had been my home for six years. I turned around and ran down the hill, determined not to look back again. As I ran I thought to myself 'Where am I gonna go?' Then it hit me.
