PERCY'S P.O.V

"Okay, Jackson, were does your mom live?" Jason asked.

My mom had recently bought a new apartment with Paul and we were going to see her. It's been about a year since I've seen her and I've missed her.

"In the Iris message she said it's near were we lived before. Only a street away from my old school, Goode." I told him.

"Okay, so we're just going to follow you?" he asked.

"Yep, come on." I started weaving through crowds and around corners, looking back every few minutes to see if I had lost anyone.

We stopped by an ice cream truck and bought ice cream for ourselves and all the kids that couldn't pay.

Finally, after two hours of walking, we made it to my mom's apartment. I stopped at the front door and just stood there.

"I haven't seen her in a year. She's probably freaking out."

"You now she loves you. Of course she's freaking out."

I took a deep breath and knocked. Half a minute later the door opened. I was engulfed in a giant hug. I squeezed my mom tightly, breathing in her jasmine and candy scent.

I could tell she still worked at the candy shop.

"Mom, I've missed you."

She let me go and held me at arms length. "Oh Percy! You've grown so much!"

She looked behind me. "These must be your friends." She smiled. I turned around. Everyone was smiling.

"Annabeth, it's good to see you. Glad to see you're still keeping my son in check."

Annabeth laughed. "Always Mrs. Jackson. It's good to see you to."

My mom smiled again and stepped aside to let us all in. "Mom, this is Jason Grace, Piper Mclean, Leo Valdez, Frank Zhang, and Hazel Levesque." I pointed to everyone in question. "You already know Nico." she nodded.

"It's nice to meet you all, and it's good to see you Nico. I have some cookies waiting in the kitchen. Please try some."

I gave her another hug and walked to the kitchen with the others. As soon as I saw the pile of blue chocolate chip cookies I dove for it, not giving any one else a chance to get any.

"Percy! Save some for us!" Piper screamed.

Hell no, these are cookies, back off bitch.

"Percy, if you eat that many that fast, you'll get sick." Hazel warned.

Soon I started choking on cookie bits. Annabeth patted my back while Frank got me some water. As soon as the glass was in my hand it was gone and down my throat.

"Percy, I've told you countless times to not eat that fast and swallow your food." My mom scowled.

"Sorry mom, I've missed your food." I coughed. "Yeah well, it's not like you have'nt had enough pizza on the ship." Annabeth patted my stomach.

"Hey! I'm a growing teenage boy! That's a perfect excuse!" I argued. My mom laughed. "He's got a point Annabeth."

Annabeth smiled and ate the rest of the cookies with everyone. It's awesome to be home.

_Time skippie!_

It's been two days and super fun. Everyone got to know my mom and I found out she went out and bought me a van to drive everyone. When Paul came home he was suprised to find eight teenagers in his house, but when he saw me, Annabeth, and Nico, he smiled and sat down to talk to everyone.

We were now in the van, driving around looking for a pizza parlor.

"Percy, just how did you win rock paper scissors?" Piper asked from the back seat.

"Well, I just knew you guys were gonna pick rock first, so I picked scissors, then pick rock, then paper. It's not that hard to know who's gonna pick what." I laughed.

"Mm hm." She rolled her eyes.

"Oh, man there's a parlor," Leo pointed one out a little down the street.

I drove up a little and stopped at the red light. As soon as it turned green I started going again. Suddenly, a screeching noise hit my ears. I turned my head just in time to see an eighteen wheeler slam into me. I heard a giant crunch and glass shattered.

I could'nt see, hear, or feel anything after that. I just floated peacefully down into the darkness.
