A/N: this is my first fan fiction and I have no Idea what I'm doing. Takes place after House of Hades
The Gods were bickering about various things, when suddenly3 blinding flashes of light appeared in the room. Zeus being the paranoid prick he is picked up his master bolt and aimed it at the light. Zeus bellows "WHO DARES COME HERE!" Zeus realizing who he was talking to bows and stutters "W-why are y-you h-here."
Lachesis comes forward and says "We are here to bestow a gift on the Olympians." She snaps her fingers and a large book with the title Finding Paradise appears. Athena drools at the sight and immediately reaches out to grab it. Had it not been for the Poseidon holding her back she would've gotten it.
"Summon the Saviors of Olympus from both wars." Atropos says calmly. Zeus quickly orders Hermes to get the Heroes of Olympus. As they all came in they were confused as to why they had been summoned. As if reading their minds Clotho comes forward and decrees "This book is your future you would be wise to read it soon." With that the fates flashed themselves out leaving the confused gods and demigods with a book to figure everything out.
Athena practically trips over herself to get the book but then notices a note from the fates on the ground that says "Read this in front of everyone" –The Morai. Athena goes back to her Throne and starts to read the first chapter.
A/N. Quotation marks are annoying I'm not going to use them
Chapter.1 Miserable me Athena states out loud.
This already sounds cheery. Demeter mutters to herself
Athena hands the book to Percy, and says it says your POV so you read it first.
Percy Pov
I glanced at Thalia and she nodded for me to start.
Its Christmas today, everyone was in hurry to get to their homes.
Their homes full of happiness, joy, laughter.
Lucky them…
Truth to be told, I envy them…
Me, a miserable, 18 year old homeless kid…
A guy, seeking for love and the warmth of the Hearth…
Hestia frowns at this and says, hope best survives at the hearth, to no one in particular
Seeking for home in this cold alley, Yeah, after all the things I've done, after all the things I've sacrificed
Looks of pity are sent at Percy, and he waves off the pity and says, this hasn't happened I don't need your pity,
And still, here I am, betrayed, abandoned, and unwanted.
Hera starts tearing up at this and saying, no one deserves this what happened?
Dionysius says, they're all brats of course they deserve this.
Artemis shoots her bow where Dionysius's sun don't shine and says, shh I want to listen.
My eyes once sea green are now gray like the sea on a cold winter night, full of depression and loneliness, swallowed by apathy. I know, weird huh, but it's fine.
My tears flow like a water fall.
From my eyes,
To my cheeks,
To the snow, melting little holes where they fell. (Last part of that not in story but I felt like adding it)
Oh, I forgot to tell you my name, I'm Percy Jackson

You think that because of these things that I've done the fates would stop messing with my life, right?
Because after all those tragic things…
Still, where do you think I am huh? Here in this Dark Alley, homeless, starving, cold, and alone…
Annabeth places a comforting hand on Percy's
