Percy's POV

Finally it's summer and I can't wait to see Annabeth and the rest of my friends. Last year we defeated Kronos, it feels great now that I don't have anything to worry about. Right now my mom is driving me off to the Camp Half-Blood, she always does this so we can say goodbye. That and I think she might be worried that I might get myself into a lot of danger before I even get to camp. When she stops at the front of the gate I'm happy, Annabeth is already waiting in the front. I'm about to leave when my mom stops me.

"Percy be careful out there. Try to avoid trouble, I really don't want you getting hurt."

"Mom you need to trust me, besides I have Annabeth by my side."

I said the last part because it always seems to calm her down. She gives me a sad smile and gave her a kiss on the check and I give her a smile to calm her down.

"Bye mom, see in the end of summer."

"Bye Percy."

I dash out of the car, and something makes me turn back to watch my mom drive away. I have a bad feeling for some reason, but that feeling disappears when Annabeth calls my name.

"Hey Seaweed brain, get kicked out of another school."

An inside joke, for any of you how don't know I got kicked out of nine schools. Annabeth finds that very amusing.

"Surprisingly no, I guess Paul really likes my mom. So how was -"

I never got to finish because right then Travis and Connor decided to tackle me.

"Guys get off me!"

They got off surprisingly fast. I look at them and then I check my pockets. My wallets missing. See Travis and Connor are the twins of Hermes and they have a habit to take stuff that isn't theirs. If I was you, I would never take my hands off my wallet when they are around. I look at them as I slowly walk forward to them.

"Guys, give me my wallet."

They both look at each other pretending to be hurt.

"Percy we would never do something as horrible like that." Travis replies.

"Ya have a little more faith Percy, we been friends for so long you think you'd have a little trust in us."

I look at the both of them, when Travis drops my wallet.

"Ow something hit me."

Annabeth takes her baseball cap off, she picks up my wallet and hands it to me.

"AW, come on Annabeth, you're taking out all the fun in this."

She glares at them and they both ran off, probably to trick some new comers at the camp. We are getting a lot more people to the camp ever since the gods promised to claim their children at age thirteen. I looked at her.

"You didn't have to scare them off, they were just joking around."

"I know, they were just hogging my boyfriend."

Smiling I kissed her and before she even got a chance to kiss back I started running.

"Come back here Seaweed Brain."

She said starting to run after me. This is the beginning of summer and I feel great. The only problem is that in the back of mind I think something really bad is going to happen.
