The son of Neptune
Hello fellow readers I have decided with all the sports in my life I need to find a way to settle down let my injuries recover and pretend that I don't feel pain every time I move. So I decided to write and try to publish every Saturday. This narrative is what I think is going to happen in the son of Neptune. I am going to try to include lots of Greek and Roman mythology and if you could try to write a review that would be so nice. Without further ado, the son of Neptune.
Percy's pov
I awoke with a hurting head and the memory of two things. My name was Percy Jackson, and I had no idea where I was. I looked down and noticed that I looked like I was 16 or 17 but had no idea when my birthday was. I wore an orange t-shirt and jeans. I had a bracelet with 5 different charms on it. Each charm had a different picture and symbol on it but I had no idea what they meant. I looked around and found that I was on a city bus with a whole bunch of people. I asked the person next to me if I had just got there and he responded like I was an idiot. Apparently I had been riding for around 10 minutes. I soon realized that I couldn't sit still on the bus and got off at the next stop. I went to the nearest store which happened to be a coffee shop. I looked at the newspaper and it read July 15 2010. I asked the clerk which town I was in and he said "San Francisco obviously."
I didn't know why I was here or why I couldn't remember anything so I decided to walk down the street and see if I could find anything or anyone that looked familiar. I did find something but I'm not entirely sure I am glad what I found. I kept looking around and saw a women staring at me every time I turned around. I decided this was a bad place to be and quickened my pace. I made it to the edge of the city and realized that I was walking straight into the middle of a forest. I looked around and had a relief that the women had at least not followed me. Then something very strange happened. Out of almost instinct I turned around to see the women staring at me, but she wasn't exactly a women anymore she started to look a little bit like she looked like she was growing and soon she was like a giant. Something in the back of my head screamed laestrygonian. RUN. SO there I was running for my life from this thing that I somehow remembered with the faint knowledge of a dodge ball for some reason and it was chasing me screaming "half-blood catch eat."
Then if it could get anymore weird it did I heard a song starting to play and the giant slowed down. I turned around in time to see that it had its feet stuck in what looked like to be roots. In that instant when it was distracted and I realized what I was seeing I did the natural thing. I put my hands in my pocket looking for something to throw at it. I found a black ballpoint pen. So I threw it at the giant. I t bounced harmlessly off the beast as it tore through the roots. I decided I was tired of running I turned and said the most logical thing I could think of. "hey um I don't know what you are or why you want to eat me but I am totally willing to look past this whole killing thing and be your friend."
Apparently this giant wasn't as friendly as I hoped as it only tried to rip my head off as I gave out my hand for it to shake. I quickly ducked under refusing to run away again and said "So I see you don't want to be friends how about I go get my pen and I'll draw a moustache on your face to make you look tough."
This laestrygonian I think it was thought it was tough enough and tried to show it as its claws ripped through the tree beside it and threw the pieces at me enjoying my dodging act. I thought if I had ever met one of these things before I should remember flying trees not dodge balls but I guess it was close to the same thing. Then after I decided that this thing was going to kill me no matter what I fell into the river beside me totally exhausted and prepared to die. I immediately felt energized and instinctively reached into my pocket pulled out the pen I had thrown at it earlier. How it was in my pocket I had no clue and uncapped it. It turned into a celestial bronze sword and I immediately knew what to do. I felt a strange tug in my chest and realized I was now standing on the water 5 feet in the air. I swung the sword at the beast cutting its head off in one fluid motion and it dissolved into the ground like it had never been there. Then I blacked out from fatigue and disbelief.
When I awoke this time I was happy to know that I remembered what had happened since I woke up on the bus. That was the god news the bad news was I was alone in the middle of the forest with a pen in my hand. I stood up and felt like I was going to fall over. I finally steadied myself and uncapped the pen. It turned into the sword once again. I put the cap back on and it turned into the pen. Weird I thought as I decided to try to find my way out of the woods. I had taken nearly five steps before a pair of hands grabbed me and started screaming "You killed it; I can't believe you killed it."
I was taken aback by this but at least I wasn't alone anymore. I decided to take the direct approach "who are you." I replied.
"Oh me I'm Bobby son of Mercury." This so called Bobby said. "and after what I just saw you do you must be a son of Neptune."
"A son of who I asked?"
"Neptune god of the sea here come with me to camp you have some learning to do."
