"Annabeth!" I screamed the two men wouldn't let me go I screamed her name once again

But she only laid there dazed, confused, and angry on what had happened, struggling against these strong men I screamed her name once more. They hit her pretty hard on the head when they surprised us on our walk to the park. There was a small purple bulg on her head which worried me she might have a concussion they probably meant to hit her that hard, but these men were kidnapping me so they had to do it on purpose.

"Percy" she yelled when she saw that I was being kidnapped again and ran towards me stumbling a few times. I could see the desperation in her eyes it hurt me to see her like this, hurt that I would be kidnapped again, this time she saw how I was being kidnap

She kept calling out to me the men had trouble keeping me inside of the van since I was determined to be free Annabeth was only a few feet away before they closed the doors and drove off, one of them had me on a headlock and placed a cloth over my mouth and everything went black

I woke up in a chair hands bounded and neck stiff, wiping the drool off the corner of my mouth with my my shoulder since every time I woke up Annabeth always points out that I was drooling, searching the prison I was in it was just an office with, a medium size mahogany wood, a leather chair behind it, shelves filled wit books and files, pictures of people same age as me wearing black robes and each of them had different colored linings, there was a window and I couldn't believe my eyes I must've been dreaming since outside was total darkness with stars and asteroids passing by, where in Zeus am I? This can't be real it can't be. The door opened a man in his twenties wearing a black robe with white linings came in and sat down in front of me I thought he couldn't see me since he didn't greeted me nor have he looked at me, he just took the papers on his desk reading it and signed something and it would disappear, then I remembered what had happened yesterday or maybe it has been more than that, oh gods Annabeth. What happened to her after I was kidnapped?

when the last of the paper had disappeared he faced me, he pulled down his hood revealing his black hair it was sticking out like he was holding an electric orb moving slowly as if his hair was in space floating aimlessly his eyes was the color of gold from time to time it would turn to black then white and back to his normal gold irises eyes. His golden eyes reminded me of Annabeth's golden hair tied into a messy ponytail and just by picturing her I got angry and struggled in my bonds.

"Where am I?" I demanded

"Good thing you were quiet while I did the paperwork" he said calmly

"Where am I?" I asked again venom in my voice "Who are you and why am I here?"

"Calm down Perseus" I tensed those who knew my real name were only my friends... and my enemies "This is the capital of Chaos planet the land of power"

He talked as if we were merely friends having a peaceful lunch another stack of papers appeared and he sighed. While he went through his paperwork he answered my questions.

"Perseus-"

"Percy" I corrected him angrily

"Percy, you see I am the son of Chaos, Zeke, and the reason you are here is that you will be recruited to our army at first you shall train as a beginner and as you work hard you can get a higher rank if you choose, now all I ask is that you cooperate"

"Then why kidnap me? Why not just ask me? Is it really necessesary for you guys to just kidnap me in a middle of my date?"

"I do not know with my father, he chooses on how we will have our new recruits here in Chaos planet"

"What if I don't want to?" I asked hoping they would just let me go

"That is not possible for you have already been chosen by my father" he said like it was an honor to be in his army "He even told me in person to get you. I guess you have a big roll to play in his plan I guess"

"Then what about my friends? My mom? Their probably issueing a quest to find me now and what about ANNABETH?"

"Do not fret for father has made sure that the oracle does not give out any prophecy to find you" he said and looked at me straight in the eye "Because you are not in earth anymore and the power of the gods are beyond your reach and as for your girlfriend I do not know"

He snapped his fingers and two guys in black camo clothes came in unbounded my wrists and escorted or rather dragged me out of the office I was yelling curses in Greek at him. I wanted to go home with Annabeth. I wanted to go back home with my friends and family, later it took four of them to drag me away. I kept screaming for them to let me go, to let me go back to my home I do not want to be in this stupid army I just faught the two wars I don't want to be in another one I had hoped that I would be given a decade of peace or something with no wars, no one threatening to end the world I just wanted to just relax and hangout with my friends. Tears streamed down my face as they dragged me to gods knows where. Screaming I got away from their grasps and ran. I don't know where, anywhere just somewhere where I could get away, to leave this place. I saw signs pointing where the hangar was, almost eight guards were chasing me. I stormed in the hangar where it was filled with ships, pegasi, dragons every flying object imaginable and some of them seem to be impossible to be real, before I could get on, on one of the pegasi the eight tackled me to the ground my hands were bounded again and they dragged me away this time a perimeter was made so I wouldn't escape, jeez they thought of everything. When I got to my room my bonds were removed, my roomn was completely blank and empty except for a single bed, a TV screen and a couple of chairs, my bags were already here I just hoped they haven't found anything embarassing in my room when they got my stuff, at least they packed my pictures of my friends, family and Annabeth. Crying myself to sleep I thought of Annabeth and how she's taking my kidnaping.

-TIME BREAK-

I yelled an encouraging speech to my clan and as I finished they raised their weapons, pounding their sheilds on the ground then hitting it with their weapons ryhtmically and charged the enemy I used the moisture around me and made water wings, you might think I wouldn't fly in these but I made them like a birds feather that would allow me to fly at first it was just a small theory that I made until some of my friends forced me to use it in the end it went well...for some of us. I slashed my way through the enemy my bretheren of water users fighting beside me my mind was like going auto-pilot. I slashed, jab, stab and kill. I helped those who were in danger and got them out of harms way and because of this my clan is always the ones with minimum deaths not like the Ares clan the enemy called in a retreat my companions cheered for our victory knowing our mission was accomplished, but the thing I hate about these battles were the deaths, checking my watch, which shows a holographic status update on everything I needed to know and the hologram showed ten had died an honorable death showing everyone the faces that had died we gave them a moment of silence and moved out, our medics will take care of the bodies and give them the proper burial rights designated from their cultures.

I had one of the warriors from the Hades clan plant a few cameras at camp and at home so I can see whats happening theere and if everyone is fine. Mom got pregnant and gave birth to twins, Thalia quit the hunters since she missed camp then after a month got into a relationship with a guy named Captain seriously that's his real name, Nico finally got the guts to ask out the girl he'd been crushing on since the Battle of the Labyrinth and now in a stable relationship, Tyson and Ella are just happy together, Ella stays at camp and away from the Roman camp because of Octavian, and the others are just dandy. Somehow I managed to get an accent because of my clan seventy-five percent of them talk in a southern country accent it happened a year ago when a demigod son of I think one of the sea gods I don't exactly remember though I'm sure it isn't Poseidon just a minor god of the sea he was from a small town in Texas a few hanged out with him then like a virus, a year later my clan sound like cowboys, soon the whole clan will sound like cowboys or just a tangy voice as they talk. There were only few shroud burnings only one and it was Moose that's his nickname and the one who started the accents. I watched as they lined up marching into the ships to return to our headquarters. We stayed there for the night making sure the rebellions have ceased and that we have controlled this planet.

Chaos's daughter Nyx decided that she was tired of him and wanted to take over she managed to get twenty galaxies into rebellion my sister Pearl gave me my guitar and asked me to play a song that I have written recently she begged more than asked. I strung my guitar and sang a song southern country style. The song was about my times in the Chaos army from the day they've taken me and from the day that they told me I couldn't leave until our problem was solved.

I didn't want to to be taken, To the place they were stayin

I thought that I did all I needed to do

I didn't realized that the fates were so cruel

I wanted to stay, but I couldn't say no

I can't free myself, You know me well

I loved you that I will not stumble

I loved you that my strength came from you

All of the reasons, I keep on believin

There's no question that the reason that I loved you

Everyone was silent as I sang my song even though it was fast not like some other slow love song. It wasn't about the beat or the rythm. It was about the message the meaning of the song, the story of it. The reason it was written.

I'm always gonna be on, what is the best way

To get to the place that I'm goin from here

But you can really trust me, to give me the distance

To make my decisions without any fears

I'm grateful for all the good times, I love your eyes

I loved you that I will not stumble

I loved you that my strength comes from you

All of the reasons, I keep on believin

There's no question that the reason, that I loved you

My heart spilled out every truth of the song I was singing out my feelings on how I felt how I miss her I let it all out everything and only one girl was on my mind and that was Annabeth

You helped me to stand on my own, And I thank you for that

You saved me, You loved me

And that now I'm movin, But I have to stay, wo-o-aah

Yeah, I love you that I will not stumble

I love you that my strength comes from you

All of the reasons, I keep on believin

There's no question that the reason, that I love you

I love you wo-o-oah

I loved you that my strength comes from you

All of the reason I keep on believin

There's no question that the reason that, I loved you

Yeah, I love You ooh

I hadn't realized that the tears were endlessly falling from my cheeks small river of salty water that signified the sadness that was in me for years. It felt good to get that feeling off my chest its been locked up in there for three years. Three years of intense training. Three years of pure torture. Three years without my family, Three years of fighting against rebels. Three years without Annabeth. Everyone prepared to leave this planet and go back to our headquarters.

I checked in camp and saw everything was going fine until I saw something and my eyes widened in shock it was the biggest drakon I have ever seen, fifty draceanea, ten hellhounds, a huge monster army that got into camp borders my home, it's being attacked by monsters. I knew they couldn't fight them off even if the demigods are that many they still can't fight them off. I told my second-in-comand to take charge of everything, using the teleporter in the ship I transported myself to Long Island, New York.

The battle has already started campers were outnumbered, many wounded and many went down almost instantly, pressing the cold ring on my finger it materialized into a bow and quiver. I shot the eyes of the drakons that almost ate eight campers with one bite over the years I have been with Chaos my archery have improved that I was better than Apollo and so have my powers, forming clones of myself from water from the lake I shouted a battle cry and they echoed me charging at the enemy, anger filled me this was my home and it was being attacked by monsters. Angrily I jumped onto its head strong thread as thins as paper came out of my sleaves it wrapped around his head and I rode the drakon around the battle feild using it to stomp monsters, hit it against a tree or when he shoots out poison I turn his hed to an enemy monster when there was only a few satisfying monsters left the drakon managed to shake me off of it. I did a back summersault and landed on my feet. Taking out three marble like objects it ran at me I threw the marbles at his mouth, he ate them as if it was only candy then he shuddered screeching in pain. It exploded not like those mushroom cloud explosion more like it just explode into bits of chunks of armor and his head gear. I saw around me that the monsters started retreating since I killed the drakon I wasn't going to let them go this easy my clones melted back into water moved around the monsters unnoticingly and surrounded the surviving monsters and finished them off with no mercy.

I was about to let my hood drop when I saw the most shocking thing ever, something that made me so angry that the ground shook lightly since I was trained to control my anger. My fists were clenched. My jaw tightened. Tears streamed down my face luckily my face was still hidden. I felt as if someone used a rusted dagger cutting out my heart my knuckles turned as white as the river Lethe. Annabeth was kissing a guy I didn't even knew. I let myself relax, cleared my mind even though it was hard to do after what I saw the love of my life has already moved on I thought she would wait for me. I thought she would have faith that I would come back. I thought she loved me.

Thalia and the other head counselors came towards me as well as the campers too. With the moisture around me I made my watery wings to take off when a hand was laid on my shoulder, his hand felt cold and looked as pale as it get and has a skull ring.

"We weren't gonna let the one who saved us leave, now would we?"

"Of course you wouldn't" I held out my hand in a friendly geture, he shook it "It's finally nice to meet Nico di Angelo. The Ghost king. Prince of the underworld"

Nico looked shock that I knew who he was he was so shock that when I was about to leave he didn'teven noticed I moved

"I must be going" I said and was about to walk away when Thalia stepped in front of me looking punkish and black as always

"Where, Texas?" she retorted

I gave out a good hearty laugh "Sarcastic as always, Hmm? Miss Grace"

"How did y-" I cut her off

"Of course Thalia Grace one of the heroes of Olympus is recognized where I come from, even Perseus was well known there"

The faces of the elder campers face darkened their expressions grim as if I struck a soft spot then I saw Annabeth holding a guy's hand he was tan, has brown hair gelled into a small mohawk with grey highlights and has the most dazzling hazel brown eyes he looked new though I never saw him before, suddenly I was hit by a massive headache, you know the feeling when you have a migrane? Well mine hurts three hundred times worst. I fell to my knees one hand on my head this has happened before so I covered my nose when blood came pouring out. Stream of blood dripped on the ground making a small puddle of blood on the ground campers began to panic, then the pain was gone. The bleeding stopped my hands trembled the worst was yet to come preparing myself my insides felt as if they were burning in lava when it was over I stood up knees shaking and breathing hard. I told them not to worry it was normal on what had happened it only happens only sometimes and it was just a side effect of using my powers. What I said was the half truth and not the whole truth it happens only a month or two and my last one happened a few days ago how is this possible? Chaos said I am one of the ones who were in the army suffering from this kind of illnes it triggers when they have longed for something and I was one of them. Chiron came and thought the blood puddle was from the battle so he ignored it he told me if me and the head councilors would meet up in the Big House. I agreed, but first I had to visit an old place, a place I haven't seen for a long time.

My room hadn't changed a bit and has been cleaned regularly amazing how dad hasn't had a kid in three years other than Pearl. The Minotaur horn hung on the wall proudly the horn was real but the rest of the stuffed head of the Minotaur was fake like it was stitched for the horn then on the table that was filled with pictures, memories and an emergency dagger which was nicely assorted out, in the middle was a small rectangular box with glass ontop so you could see the content inside was my minotaur horn and at the bottom my necklace, nicely laid out in a velvet cushion at the bottom of the box was a golden box plate engraved on it were, with a little difficulty because of my dyslexia.

"In memory of Perseus Jackson son of Poseidon, Hero of Olympus, boyfriend of Annabeth Chase" At the bottom of those were writing in red permanent marker that looked like the work of the Stolls "And Seaweed Brain of Camp Half-Blood" I laughed softly at that

My watch made a sound. I had an incoming call it sounded urgent the hologram showed my second-in-command

He was injured I could tell by the bandage on his head and the fear in his eyes shown me he wasn't ready for death yet

"Master, the other areas have joined the rebellion and are hitting us hard we are cornered, we need help"

"First things first" I said seriously "The battle results"

He looked as if he had dishonored me which is a big no-no "Sir, we have twenty soldiers who are seriously wounded and to our dismay seventeen deaths we only have three hundred thousand soldiers left against ten hundred thousand foe's" then he gulped "Master, if I survive this I will accept any punishments for having this many deaths which have dishonored you and our clan"

Greg looked uneasy this was his first time to ever be the one in charge my hood turned so dark even I had trouble seeing through it my cloak shows what my emotions were the darker the more sadder I am. Greg felt that he had failed even though he didn't the way he could fail is to get half or the entire clan killed.

"My friend" I chuckled "Death is common for heroes, they died an honorable death and we will avenge them. Aphrodite district, Athena and Demeter clan will be there to assist you and quarter of the Apollo district as medic and Cobra will be there to lead the way"

"Master?" he called before I could close the call "Thank You"

"Ya'll gonna be alright Greg don't worry" then asked "Is Pearl alright?"

"Yes sir, well and healthy and is on the battle field and also the reason why the enemies have not taken over yet her water avatar is very intimidating and just like you Master, she doesn't want her family and friends to be harmed someday she would get killed by her loyalty"

The call ended leaving me alone in my silent cabin.

I sat in front next to Chiron as we talked who I was and why I wouldn't let them see my face we had the meeting in the rec room, things never changed the pingpong table was the same as ever, but this time there's a chocolate fountain in the middle and every so often they would eat fruits or bread sticks and dip them in the caffeinated substance. I made some kind of lie why I couldn't show my face while the real reason was because of Annabeth I can't show my face and that she was dating someone new that would be awkward. Then Clarisse and Leo began arguing aobut something very stupid when Annabeth managed to get them to stop she started to tell me their situation and asked if I could help them. Annabeth asking for help from a stranger? Have she changed over the past three years? She looked as beautiful as always and since she has grown older she looked really amazing with her blonde hair falling down beautifully.

"Well Wi-" I caught myself before I could say her nickname "While my clan is in trouble I cannot and I do not know if my master allows"

She looked at me skeptically I could practically see the gears working in her head thinking what was I about to say before I corrected myself. My watch beeped. An incoming message of course evryones attention went to my watch I prayed to Chaos that this was an emergency where I have to go and help. The hologram showed my sister smiling like a mad person.

"Sup, my brother from another mother" she said happily "We won! We got control of planet Fering the Aphrodite clan managed most of the kills which is unfair because of their beauty is an advantage, we only have two deaths since the reinforcements came and Cobra led us to victory bro. The Athena clan made a great plan to take over the rebellion and Demeter District was able to make the plants to make cages for the prisoners, by the way where are you, are you playing ping pong while sitting?" Damn it why the she have to report those too and so damn fast

I hope they didn't get everything she said from that Machinegun-like mouth of hers

The counselors would've laughed because of her question if she hadn't mentioned their parents names and how they have saved a lot of deaths of my clan especially the Aphrodite clan killing more than the others.

"Pearl can we talk about this later" I said calmly

"You know you've changed when I joined" she pouted "Where's my idiotic brother who always eat with strange colored food, always doing something crazy and extremely funny and stupid?"

I thought Annabeth was coming close to a conclusion that I was Percy why does Pearl have to have a big mouth and spilling out a lot of clues for them to know who I am

"I'm in a meeting Pearl" I said "You tell Greg to take care of everything else until I come back"

"Umm... P-" I cut her off

"Please address me properly when I am in a meeting"

The others looked really confused now Pearl almost called me by my first name and that was close. Annabeth looked at me curiously

"But I hate calling you that" she mumbled then sighed "Greg's dead, Master"

I stiffened he was a good kid, brave one too I guess it was time for him

"Then you shall be my second-in-command give Greg the Egyptian culture of his burial he will be miss make sure to tell his family in Norway"

"Yes master" she said and before the call ended she smirked "Last time you let me be in charge it was hilarious and a catastrophe"

"That was before you became mature" I muttered to myself then stood up "I have to go, looks like I have some paperwork to do"

My hand held the doorknob then a gentle hand was on my shoulder I thought it was Annabeth who's going to pull dowwn my hood since she figured it out. I turned it was Piper she has grown big and beautiful just like an Aphrodite kid would be, her choppy brown hair clashed with her kaleidoscope eyes, shocked that she pulled down my hood that I didn't even stop her. I thought Annabeth was going to be the first to figure it out. The thing that changed about me was that I don't have that warm and friendly eyes no more I have to look menacing. I don't have that messy black hair that made me look like I just woke up just a military haircut. I don't have that anymore. I never smile unless I'm around my fellow comrades. I had a scar that is from the corner of my right eye to my chin like a stream of tears that never ends. Tears that stained my face.
