Percy's pov
I don't know how this happened… after all the things asked of me. The trials and tribulations of a hero… but I guess that's it isn't it. Being a hero there is no happy ever after. But I'll stop there and catch you up to speed. So after the giant war Annabeth got really serious about wanting a career as an architect. So much in fact that I and everyone else became a sideline even me. Now don't get me wrong I was happy that she was chasing her goal in life. But I was hopping id be right there with her then again, i had no idea what id be doing when i got back to New York. And I was up until the day she dumped me.
That's where you get to jump in… it was the last couple weeks of camp and we were sitting on the beach. and she turned to me tucking a strand of her hair behind her ear. as she cleared her throat.
"so Percy... any idea what your going to do after camp?" she asked. which had become a near regular question lately.
"Annabeth the answer doesn't change every hour you know." i said with a sigh. frustration hinting in my voice.
"Percy i know but summers almost done. and your still not sure what you'll be doing. and life guarding isn't a career." she said stressing it as a point which stung because life guarding was the only place monsters left me alone. and due to my record no collage or university would take me. not even in Canada. trust me i tried.
"Annabeth I KNOW! it's killing me inside. but i have no idea! Im not like you i don't always have my life planed out! Some times i have to just go with it!"i said getting a little angry.
"Percy don't make this about me!" She said getting just as angry.
"Then why are you so concerned about me? you seam to have your life all planed out!" i said yelling.
"yes except how you fit into it!" she yelled. with tears threatening to come out. it got really quiet. "Percy… I wish I didn't have to say this… but we… we need to stop seeing each other…" she said with tears in her eyes. And you know me. But I broke the scrip. I had an intelligent responses. Which surprisingly was not saying anything. I stepped up and wiped away her tears. She smiled but then stepped back. "Percy your only making this harder…"
"Then I'll make it easy… why? Just tell me why?" I said. Barely finding my voice and barely keeping it together.
"I still love you Percy and I always will. But you have to…"
"THEN WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS!" I said losing my cool a bit.
"BECAUSE I KNOW WHERE IM GOING AND YOU DON'T!" she said braking down and letting her self cry. I hugged her as she cried into my shoulder. After a minuet or two I spoke again. Shakily and on the verge of crying.
"ok… ok wise girl… I love you so much. And I want you to be happy. i… I know how much being an Architect means to you. And your right… I don't know what im going to do… but in a couple years when we have everything sorted out…" I said my voice breaking.
"yes Percy. We pick up right where we left off." She said smiling just a bit. I let a small smile form on my lips. And kissed her lightly, till then wise girl. I said and hugged her good bye. She hugged me tightly back and then left to catch her plain. She was off to some university.
It was a couple days later that i was driving back to my apartment in Manhattan.
Along the way my tire popped. So I decided to walk. Only to get rained on, so I turned back towards my truck. I opened the door only to be knocked back as the Minatare slammed into the open door I uncapped rip tied and jumped to the side as he charged. Cutting off a horn again. "Now we're even!" he slammed his fist down but I rolled for ward popping up in side is guard and I stabbed him through the stomach. "better luck next time beef head." I whisper as I pull my sword out of his already disintegrating body.
I grabbed my ruck sake with all my stuff out of the truck and put it on just as my truck exploded knocking me onto my back. Or ruck sack which no doubt broke something. I rolled over with pain running down my back and blurred vision. Only to see a young Chimera stalking towards me, with its tail posed to strike. And the its mouth getting ready to blast me with more fire. I rolled to the side. And looked for cover. I saw a tree and climbed up it. The inferno burned the base and the tree started to sway. I pulled the tree so it feel towards the Chimera. And jumped down onto it cutting off it's tail. Then stabbing it in head. As I gave a battle cry. I got up and dusted my self off. And shook the gold dust out of my hair.
I picked up my ruck sack and started walking towards New York. I had some more miner run ins with monsters. So it was a day or two when I finally did reach the city. I looked like a homeless guy. Clothes torn, and scorched. My face was dirty with sweat, and grim. My apartment was too fare and I was dead tired. So I went to my mom's apartment.
Only to find the door smashed open. And what I saw in side… well I'll never forget it. My mom lay dead in a pool of her own blood and Paul lay dead as well. A knife in his side, their TV was gone, along with all their other valuables. I fell to my knees crying. When the police arrived, they miss took me for the robber. dumb ass cops. they questioned me and I told them who I was and that I was coming back from a camping trip. I used the mist to make it believable. After that was done. I Took a taxi to my apartment and collapsed on the bed I fell into a uneasy sleep.
The next day I woke up and it took me a long time to get out of bed. A sadness weighed down on me. Making it hard to move. Id lost it all. My truck, my mom, and most of all Annabeth. I called moms lawyer and she meet with me. we talked and she told me she'd take care of all the financial business. And all that was left was the funeral. In their will it said they wanted to be cremated. So the next couple of weeks that's what I did.
I arranged everything and when it was all said and done. I had a box of ashes… that's all I had left of my mom and step dad… a month... that's all it took to lose it all. That night that I sat in my room with a knife in hand. Contemplation weather it was worth it to keep going . I mean out of all the things I'd accomplished in my short life. I still couldn't keep my relation ship going, or be here for my mom when she need me the most! out of frustration i through the knife at the wall and started destroying my fruitier in frustration.
After i fell asleep from all the adrenalin fading form my body i woke up and knew it was over, but i came to a realization; Out of all the things I had done for the gods. They just let this happen! They let my mom die, Aphrodite let Annabeth dump me! And they sat and watched it all happen. But guarantied if one of their many old enemy's rose up from the ashes of Tuataras they would expect me to come running to their aid.
They treat us demigods like shit, and expect us to do all their dirty work. Well Im sick of it. I got up and took a shower. I then grabbed all the supplies I had left and walked out the door. It was weeks later well I was some where in rule America, after killing the last of a hell hound pack that had followed. I was so tired from running and fighting. i leaned against a tree the bark biting into to my skin as i slid down the tree collapsing in against the base, from exhaustion. As I lay their the darkness from the setting sun seamed to consumed me as my eyes fluttered shut..
In my dream I was in complete darkness. But the weird thing was that the darkness was some how bright. Because a hooded shadowy figure approached. And they were dressed in all black. So black that it was almost like it was sucking you in to the fabric. "Percy Jackson… your life has changed a lot in the past couple of weeks hasn't it?" the figure said. With a voice that was both male and female. As it echoed with power. I stayed silent trying to decide if this was friend or an enemy.
"I am chaos the creator. And I am here with an offer…" I chose this as a good time to answer.
"what kind?" I ask in a questioning tone.
"im glad you asked. I give you a rare opportunity Percy. As the creator I can't fight my creations. So I leave it to my son, to do this. He is in need of a second in command. And I think you would suit this role perfectly. It would be a new life. And you'd be one of the many members of our small little brother hood." Chaos explained.
I didn't have to think long… or at all really. "I accept." I said sticking out my hand. To my surprise another figure my height, grasped for arm in an old fashion hand shake.
"Welcome Percy. To the brotherhood of the void troopers." He said. He had a deep voice. "we have a lot to do." He said letting go of my arm.
So what did you think? Review pleas!
