PERCY POV
I am glad, I am happy. It has been a couple of weeks since the battle of Manhattan. Annabeth and I are going strong but for a couple of days she has been distant. I don't know why but I'm going to make her happy. I have a whole date set up for her; it's going to be in this little hidden beach where no one can see us. It's going to be like a picnic where we will eat out of a picnic basket and sit on a blanket watching the sunset. I will also bring a Greek book on architecture so if bored she can read it.
I can't wait. I decide to go and tell her were to meet me so she is not lost or late. I search for her in her cabin, her little corner where she reads and the beach. Finally a bit worried I go to look by Zeus's fist, I hear moaning coming from that dedicated area so I turn around to give the couple privacy. Just as I'm about to leave I hear the words that I have ever dreaded "I love you Annabeth, I'm glad you ditched the wimp for me". I storm back to the Zeus's fist and walk round; there is Annabeth and Mace Devans, a Hermes kid on the floor kissing. Their they are reassuring each other that they love each other and I'm a nobody! I will the water from the creek, situated a couple of miles away, and will it to splash on them. They separated shocked and annoyed. They turn towards me Annabeth is shocked and says in a begging tone "Percy this is not what it looks like I swear" but I don't believe her. "I don't believe you; I heard what you had to say about me and all I can say is really, him, Mace? I thought you loved me Annabeth but it's clear to see that's not true!" I shout at her. She looks close to tears but I don't care I just want her to feel the pain I fell right now. Mace has terror all over his face but he masks it over with a smug smirk "so Jackson, looks like I got the catch of the day, hero of Olympus' girlfriend" he says hero of Olympus with a mocking tone. The water has now resurfaced and it is like a tornado of water swirling around me, the earth is shaking. I move the water tornado towards Mace and Annabeth, seemingly not realising that they couldn't breathe very well.
Chiron suddenly knocks me out of the way, I lose my focus and the water collapses to the earth, were it has now stopped shaking. Mace and Annabeth with a scared look on their faces run of while Chiron gives me a disappointed look then turns and gallops away. I look behind me and see cracks in the ground, filled with water and the trees and ground swamped. I thought I could at least tidy it up so I send all the water back to the creek and I fix the majority of the cracks, pushing the earth back into the giant spaces.
Walking back into the camp, people walking past me give me dirty looks. I brush it off and go back to the Poseidon cabin for a nap before dinner and the facing of Mace and Annabeth.
Waking up to the conch shell I run to the Mess Hall. As I'm last in people look at me then give me glares over their food. I'm shocked; I don't understand what I've done? I sit down at my table and start eating but then someone shouts my name, I turn around to see its Clarisse. "Why did you nearly kill Mace and Annabeth for? You're just jealous of Annabeth and Mace's relationship, when you were the one who broke up with her! You are stupid and no hero, trying to kill your own out of jealousy?" she shouts, I am shocked. I try to tell them that not what happened but she just shouts "LIE'S, you are no longer welcome in Camp Half Blood". I can't believe Mace and Annabeth lied. I am angry and I just want to scream, but I don't I walk away. I pack my things and rip down all the things that remind me of Annabeth. Walking out of the cabin I see Grover, Nico and Thalia "we don't believe her, she's lying isn't she? Right?" Thalia says in a hopeful voice. I nod my head "she and Mace lied. I caught them behind Zeus's fist, she cheated on me!" I say. "I'm leaving, I'll always remember you, just don't forget me ok?" they nod and I walk into the sea, willing my clothes and me not to get wet.
I make the current push me to a little island where I decide to rest. I lie down, thinking what to do and I decide I have nothing, I grab riptide and take the cap of, it grows into a long sword and I push it to my chest. Just before I can do it, it's knocked out of my hand, I look up to see a great figure. He's skin is black with stars and galaxies printed on and when I look closer I realize their moving. He's eyes are always changing colour from white, black, red, gold and so on. "I am Chaos, the void" I quickly bow to him "why did you stop me from ending my life?" He simply smiles and replies "I need a new leader for my army and you fit the job, do you agree?" I think through it. I have no one hear that will miss me or want me. I agree. "Very well. Stand up get your stuff and let's go" he gestures to a space and then suddenly a vortex has opened. We walk to it. I'm ready I think, ready for my new life with no one dragging me behind. I walk into the vortex and it closes behind me, swirling and moving into nothingness.
