CHAPTER ONE: GROVER SENDS FOR HELP

I woke up from my bed. I was startled, because I had a dream that a whole sum of half bloods had just been discovered. I tried to convince myself of that, but it just didn't work. I knew, being a half blood myself that the dream was real.

You see, halfbloods (sometimes referred to as demi-gods) are half human, half god. That's right. All those myths about Zeus, Poseiden, Athena, they all are real. And when a god decides to fall in love with a human (or as the gods would say, mortal) they have children. And that child is a demi-god. But there are some demi-gods that are more powerful than the others. Children of the Big Three (Zeus, Poseiden, and Hades) are the most powerful. They have powers that are hard to imagine. I am one of those children. I am Percy Jackson: son of Poseidon.

I went outside to find it was morning at Camp Half-Blood. The only place where half-bloods can be out in the open without the fear of monsters killing us. This is possible because of the magical barriers and the golden fleece. I went out to the dining hall for breakfast. I met Annabeth on the way. Annabeth was a girl at camp half-blood. She was one of my best friends. We've been through a lot together. I told her about my dream.

"We have to tell Chiron!" she said, referring to the activity director.

"What about breakfast?" I wondered thinking of my stomach.

"There's no time! Come on! Let's go!" She pulled me toward the Big House.

"Hmm. Interesting." That was his reply when we told him.

"Interesting?" She looked like she could blow Chiron's half centaur half human body into a million pieces. Being the daughter of Athena, goddess of wisdom, she probably knew how.

P-P-Percy. Can you hear me?It was Grover. My best friend, and best satyr. He was using the empathy link to link our emotions to communicate.

Yeah Grover. What's up, are you in trouble?I knew he wouldn't use the empathy link unless it was an emergency.

Yeah Percy. I've found another half-blood. I'm here with Nico Nico was our other friend half-blood. He was a son of Hades, 12 years old, and left camp because he thought he didn't belong. Listen, I need you to come. I need your help. I'm in Maine, not too far away from you. I can't keep the link on. This half blood is-...The link cut off.

I turned to Chiron and Annabeth. "Grover needs help. He might be in trouble. I need a quest."

I packed my things on me, not taking a bag. Chiron had granted me my quest, and I'd decided to take Annabeth and Tyson, my cyclops step-brother. They both excepted. We would be leaving in 5 minutes. I packed my pen/sword, Riptide, being magical, always appeared in my pocket when I lost it. I had a watch/shield Tyson built me on my wrist. It transformed from watch to shield at the press of the red botton on the center of the watch. Other than that and the clothes on my back, I didn't have anything else. I went to the top of Half-Blood hill, as Tyson and Annabeth were already there. "Let's go." I said.
