Everything was going normally at Camp Half-Blood. Until I got some news about my mom.
So I was talking to Annabeth as usual and then we got into the subject of our parents. Go figure. Annabeth has problems with her family and me, my mom, and my step-dad Paul all get along perfectly. So this is a serious subject.
"Oh right. Percy, I've been wanting to tell you this all morning. It's about your mom."
Dead silence. Whenever there was something that Annabeth wanted to tell me that was serious about my mom, it always turned out that me, Annabeth, and Grover would go on a quest to save the day.
"The gods have been fighting a lot lately. Nobody knows what's going on with them. Nobody can do anything about it. Everybody on Mount Olympus thinks there's going to be a civil war between the gods. And you know what that means."
"A war will break out between the mortals too."
"Yes. But the gods just made a request. They know your mom. She is the nicest person that ever could be, and she keeps everyone calm. Hfm, Percy, the point is, the gods want to make your mom immortal. You know, a goddess."
I was speechless. My mom, a goddess? First they offer me the chance to be immortal, a god, and then my mom? I mean, what more are they going to do to my family? I didn't know what to say. I just knew that I had to go see my mom. Like right now.
"Annabeth, did they already make her a goddess?"
"Um, no Percy, they didn't. But they are at the end of the week if nobody changes their minds, which is pretty hard to do. Poseidon has already tried, but to no prevail. Percy, I'm sorry."
She slipped her hands through mine. It felt good to have Annabeth with me. She's always there.
"I have to go see her."
"Percy-"
"No. I have to stop this from happening. I can change the gods' minds. I'll do whatever it takes to save my mom. If you think about it, what would happen to Paul?"
"Percy, you can't go on one of your adventures again. The war just ended. Chiron said we had to take a break. But, I know we'll find a way to fix this problem. We can send the gods and Iris-message or something."
"No. I'm packing my bags right now. And you're coming with."
I looked straight into her storm-gray eyes. Trying to tell her I was serious about this and I really needed her right then. She looked right back into mine. Then she kissed me on the cheek and whispered in my ear, "I'll get my stuff."
Then she ran off to the Athena cabin.
I know I'm sorry this isn't finished yet. It's my first one, I'm a beginner, so please review nicely. I promise I'll keep writing! I Love Logan Lerman!
