Heeeyyy! I read a lot of these and decided that I wanted to try it out for myself. So, here you go...

Chapter 1: I Accidentally Vaporize My Pre-Algebra Teacher

Percy's POV

Okay, so, I turned sixteen, check! Defeated the Titan Lord, check, and am now going out with Annabeth, check. But what happened next was weird and quite unexpected. It happened the week after the Titan War. I remember as if it were only yesterday, but it actually was a week ago.

August 25, 2010-Percy POV

I opened my eyes as gallons of sunlight flooded in my cabin. I blinked twice before I remembered where I was. As I looked at my watch I noticed I was late for breakfast so, jumped out of bed, got dressed, grabbed the doorknob and whoosh! All I saw was a very faint pink color. Until of course, it faded and I had to blink multiple times before I could even vaguely recognize the place. But when I did, a shock went down my spine. No, an actual shock, I had landed on god sized Zeus's head in the middle of the Winter Solstice meeting. As I jumped down there was another faint pink flash as both Nico and Thalia appeared, both again on Zeus's head.

"WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?" Zeus thundered as Thalia and Nico both jumped off his head, offering apologies.

"Ummm... I don't know, one minute I was in my cabin, about to go to the pavilion, then the next, I am getting electrocuted!" I mumbled.

"who are you? I can tell you are not mortal, for a shock from Zeus like that would have killed you, but you are not immortal either. For I know of all Immortals and you, are not one. So, you must be a demigod. But who are you? I have never seen you before." Athena questioned.

"My name is Percy Jackson. This is Thalia Grace and Nico DiAngelo. But, I met you before, we also, kind of saved the world last week, and why is Olympus not under construction? I thought-" I stopped talking as Thalia elbowed me.

"what?" I whispered to her.

"I think we went back in time! Look! They have no idea who we are." Thalia whispered back.

"Ummm... what year is it now?" I asked.

Zeus looked at me and said, "1990 of course! Why do you ask?"

"Oh no! We are from the year 2010!" Nico finally exclaimed. I had almost forgot he was here.

It was at that time that the pink glow once again filled the room and I felt something appear in my hands. As the glow faded, I saw that it was a book.

"Percy Jackson and the Olympians, The Lightning Thief." Thalia read.

"...Hey! This book is about me!"

"Wow Percy! Annabeth is right! You are a Seaweed Brain!" Thalia exclaimed.

"Whatever."

"I propose we read this book. It is best not to tempt fate, well, the Fates." Athena put in.

"I agree." was the answer throughout the room.

So, Athena took the book from me and opened the cover.

"I ACCIDENTALLY VAPORIZE MY PRE-ALGEBRA TEACHER"

"How do you accidentally vaporize someone?" Nico asked, but everyone ignored him.

Look, I didn't want to be a half-blood.

"No one does," Thalia pointed out somberly

If you're reading this because you think you might be one, my advice is: close this book right now. Believe what-ever lie your mom or dad told you about your birth, and try to lead a normal life.

"How can that help?" Nico questioned

"It would mask their scent a bit." Athena replied

"Oh"

Being a half-blood is dangerous. It's scary. Most of the time, it gets you killed in painful, nasty ways.

"That's true, sad, but true" I said.

If you're a normal kid, reading this because you think it's fiction, great. Read on. I envy you for being able to believe that none of this ever happened.

"I envy them too. This would be pretty cool, if it weren't happening to you." Thalia expressed

But if you recognize yourself in these pages-if you feel something stirring inside-stop reading immediately. You might be one of us. And once you know that, it's only a mat-ter of time before they sense it too, and they'll come for you.

"Such optimism Percy!" Nico said

Don't say I didn't warn you.

"You didn't!" Apollo exclaimed

"Shut up!" Artemis replied

My name is Percy Jackson.

"No way!"

I'm twelve years old. Until a few months ago, I was a boarding student at Yancy Academy, a private school for troubled kids in upstate New York.

Am I a troubled kid?

"Definitely!" Ares said.

It was then that he got 3 icy glares shot at him.

Yeah. You could say that.

"See! You even said it!" Ares defended.

I could start at any point in my short miserable life to prove it, but things really started going bad last May, when our sixth-grade class took a field trip to Manhattan- twenty-eight mental-case kids and two teachers on a yellow school bus, heading to the Metropolitan Museum of Art to look at ancient Greek and Roman stuff.

"That is a pretty sweet field trip!" Hermes shouted

I know-it sounds like torture. Most Yancy field trips were.

"Didn't I just say the opposite?"

But Mr. Brunner, our Latin teacher, was leading this trip, so I had hopes.

Mr. Brunner was this middle-aged guy in a motorized wheelchair. He had thinning hair and a scruffy beard and a frayed tweed jacket, which always smelled like coffee. You wouldn't think he'd be cool, but he told stories and jokes and let us play games in class. He also had this awesome collection of Roman armor and weapons, so he was the only teacher whose class didn't put me to sleep.

"Hey! That sounds just like Chiron!" Apollo said

"It probably is, but why is he posing as this Peter kid's Latin teacher?" Dionysus questioned

I hoped the trip would be okay. At least, I hoped that for once I wouldn't get in trouble.

"But that's boring!" Ares claimed

Boy, was I wrong.

"Oh good! I thought this was gonna be one of those and nothing happened moments like the entire book of Catching Fire."

See, bad things happen to me on field trips. Like at my fifth-grade school, when we went to the Saratoga battlefield, I had this accident with a Revolutionary War cannon. I wasn't aiming for the school bus, but of course I got expelled anyway.

"Epic!"

And before that, at my fourth-grade school, when we took a behind- the-scenes tour of the Marine World shark pool, I sort of hit the wrong lever on the catwalk and our class took an unplanned swim.

"I like this kid! He is even more disastrous than me!" Ares exclaimed.

"And you said you saved the world? Seems like you would only destroy it with a record like that!" Athena said.

And the time before that... Well, you get the idea. This trip, I was determined to be good.

"Awwww! But that's not entertaining!" Said guess who (if you can't

All the way into the city, I put up with Nancy Bobofit, the freckly, redheaded kleptomaniac girl, hitting my best friend Grover in the back of the head with chunks of peanut butter-and-ketchup sandwich.

"Rude!"

"No one messes with Grover and get away with it!" Thalia said with a scowl

"Don't worry, she gets what's coming to her in the end." I said with a grin.

Grover was an easy target. He was scrawny. He cried when he got frustrated. He must've been held back several grades, because he was the only sixth grader with acne and the start of a wispy beard on his chin. On top of all that, he was crippled. He had a note excusing him from PE for the rest of his life because he had some kind of muscular disease in his legs. He walked funny, like every step hurt him,

"You are so nice to your friends Perce!" Nico expressed to me.

"Hey! I didn't know then..."

but don't let that fool you. You should've seen him run when it was enchilada day in the cafeteria.

"Same old Grover!"

Anyway, Nancy Bobofit was throwing wads of sandwich that stuck in his curly brown hair, and she knew I couldn't do anything back to her because I was already on probation. The headmaster had threatened me with death by in-school suspension if anything bad, embarrassing, or even mildly entertaining happened on this trip.

"Darn! Th-"

"Okay! We know, it's boring, not entertaining and all of the above, stop going on about it!" Zeus thundered.

"I'm going to kill her, " I mumbled.

Grover tried to calm me down. "It's okay. I like peanut butter. "

He dodged another piece of Nancy's lunch.

"That's it. " I started to get up, but Grover pulled me back to my seat.

"You're already on probation, " he reminded me. "You know who'll get blamed if anything happens. "

Looking back on it, I wish I'd decked Nancy Bobofit right then and there. In-school suspension would've been nothing compared to the mess I was about to get myself into.

"Oh Perce! You can never go anywhere without something happening!" Thalia exclaimed

"Okay, now, time for some explanations!" Hephaestus said.

"Who are you?"
