Prologue

I ran up the stairs to the attic of the big house, Percy was behind me.

Since Rachel became the Oracle, the attic was cleaned up and everything was put in boxes. More stuff came to fill the room, like old reminders of heroes. Some swords that were held by legendary heroes and other legendary objects were put up here on display in one half of the attic. The other side was filled with about 20 boxes filled with random junk.

Grabbing a box, I moved it out of the pile that seem to be just about to fall and open to examine its contents. Percy looked in my box and I lifted random junk.

"Percy, can't you look through another box." I said, annoyed. Percy saw my face and left to look through a box label 'Chiron's'.

"Wise Girl?!" I gave Percy a glare to shut him up. A moment later and-

"Annabeth? Annie? Annnniieeee?"

"What!?" I turned to him. "What do you want, Seaweed Brain?"

"There is a pink wig in here!" I turned to see what I think is a lump of bright pink hair. "I think this was from his party pony day!" He placed it on his head and shook his head like he was listen to a song. The hair covered his face in a storm of pink. I left him in his antics.

"Annie? Annnniieeee? ANNNNIEEEE?" Again?

"What?"

"Why are we here?" he asked innocently.

"I explain this twice already." I pointed out.

"Explain one more time? Please?"

"Okay, to find something one of my half-brothers left." I gave the shortest answer possible.

"Umm, care to explain?" I sigh extra loud.

"I had an older half-brother that lived pass the 'Demigod Years.'" I did air quotes. Percy stared confused. "The years that the demigod scent is strongest?" He continue staring at me. "When you are older than 25 or so, monster attacks happens less often until you don't get any."

"So we're looking for a book?" Percy replied, forgetting what I just said. I face-palmed.

"My half-brother traveled the world and wrote his findings in a dark grey book. He gave it to Chiron about 20 years ago who said that he would keep it here for a child of Athena one day. Chiron told me to find it for some reason."

"That is why?" I gave him a glare. He turned around and started looking again.

We searched for another half hour before Percy found it at the bottom of a box that was stuck in between three other boxes. I blew on the grey cover to remove the dust and turned the cover.

"You ready, Percy?" He nodded and I began to the first page read out loud for Percy.

"To who this may concern. I am a son of the goddess Athena and give Chiron this book. I request that he will give it to a future child of Athena. Over my many travels around the world, I have discovered many things, but the gods forbid me to tell, so I have written my learnings in this book. Be careful when you read it. -Richard Gakard"

AN: Hey guys, this was a little idea that I had bouncing in my mind for a while.
