Chapter 1; Let's Meet Jessie
Percy's P.O.V
'Hey Seaweed Brain!' Is all that I hear before I turn around to be tackled by wise girl.
'Well hello to you too. What's going on?' I laugh. She pulls me aside and leads me through the dark green trees, and the aroma of wet grass fills my nostrils. She has lead me to the dining area; oh yeah, its breakfast time. We grab our food from the line, and do our daily sacrifice to the gods. 'Percy, guess what?' I hear while she squeals.
'Oh gods, what?'
'I'VE BEEN ACCEPTED INTO MARVIN MAYE'S COLLEGE!'
My heart beats faster than a deer running for its life. Annabeth was leaving me. She obviously sees the shock in my face.
'Percy, there are still months-'
'It's fine' I interrupt. Forcing myself to put a brave face I smile and continue another one of our weird conversations. But on the inside, I'm dying. Life on this Earth is pointless without wise girl by my side.
'So um, I have to go like, dump my tray out. So… I'll talk to you later.' I mutter. She just doesn't understand.
'Wait, Percy! You still up for that movie tonight?'
I spin around and give her a big grin. 'Of course'
I had barely taken 7 steps forward when Frank came to me and said something I wasn't expecting.
'Hey Percy! There's a new girl here who hasn't been claimed yet, and just arrived. Come on.'
I was looked at as the head of the camp. It was my duty to meet the new campers, show them around, and make sure they felt comfortable here. 'Ok, lead me there.'
I run following Frank, and the sweet aroma of gingerbread cookies make me feel like a child again. But…where did that scent come from? I turn to see the back of a brunette's head, as she is playing around with the dragon that keeps the Golden Fleece in place.
Then I hear her laugh, and it's heartwarming. 'Excuse me, miss?'
She turns around and I have a good look at her. She is light brown, like the color of the leaves falling from the trees, sprinkling the grass with color. She's wearing a rock and roll shirt with skinny jeans, and has several blue highlights. She kind of reminded me of Thalia, but they were surely different.
'Hi. I'm Jessie.' She said with a smile.
And right after she introduced herself, a trident formed over her head. My sister Jessie is the daughter of Poseidon.
