Prologue
This is the story of how I died.
But, it's actually a good story. Sure there was dying at some part but it only added the drama. The more drama, the better right ?
Anyway, if you see me pop up, I'm just the annoying narrator aka Percy Jackson Overland Frost. I am also the star of this story. I bet you would love to hear more about the amazing me but we need to get on with the story.
Before I became Mr. Frost, I was just a normal kid. My name was Percy Jackson. How did I become Percy Jackson Overland Frost ? The answer lies in the story.
...
It was a lovely Saturday afternoon, in winter. Percy was up to his tricks again, making pranks like scaring his little brother. The boy carefully hid himself behind his brother's bedroom door so that when the little kid walked in, he'd be surprised. Percy heard small light footsteps and held his breath. When Percy was sure he was near, the raven head jumped out and let out an 'ARGHHH!' at the top of his lungs. His younger brother immediately screamed.
Percy couldn't help but laugh after seeing his brother's troubled expression expression. The older kid wish he had a camera because it was a total Kodak moment. As soon as his brother calmed down and saw it was Percy, he glared at him. Percy's brother had black hair and dark blue eyes. Percy also had dark hair but he had sea green eyes. His brother inherited more of their mom and Percy inherited more of their dad. Anyway, his brother's eyes started to water and Percy knew the child was going to cry. Which in turn would get the older boy scolded.
"Shhh!" Percy hastily told him, putting a hand on his shoulder. His brother sniffed. "Don't cry. How about I take you skating right now ?" His brother wiped away his tears and let a grin grow in his face, showing his few teeth. He nodded. "Okay, go get your sweater and meet me downstairs." He ran to his room and Percy went to his own. He wore a blue hoodie over his white shirt and brown pants. He grabbed their skates. Percy walked downstairs and saw that his brother was ready.
"Mom," Percy called. "We're going out to play." Of course he'd ever say where because if he told her that they were going skating at the frozen lake in the woods, she'd freak out. Their mom was in the kitchen.
"Okay," She answered. "Stay safe and be back for dinner."
"We will !" Percy assured her as the siblings both walked out in their boots. Percy took his brother down a path and they walked for about 15 minutes before reaching the lake. The boots made graveling sounds in the snow and Percy breathed in the cold air. When they reached there, Percy helped his brother put on his skates.
Then, a naughty idea sparked in the older boy's mind as he watched his brother stagger to the edge of the lake. Percy pushed him forward, without thinking and he skidded almost to the middle of the pond. It's a miracle he's still standing. Percy's brother looked down afraid. Percy noticed a long stick not far from him. One of its end shaped into a sort of hook. The right size for his brother.
Percy took off his boots, knowing that it would make him heavier on the thin ice. He noticed that the ice under his brother was starting to crack. Percy hurried. "I'm scared, Percy," His brother shouted. Percy noticed that the ice was cracking beneath him. He should save him.
"It's okay, Tyson," Percy said. The older boy pretended to jump a bit. The ice cracked under his foot. It was colder than his feet but he could stand it. "Let's pretend we're playing hopscotch." Percy proceeded to leap. "See ?" Tyson smiled, temporarily forgetting his fear. "Your turn," Percy said as he clutched the stick tighter. "One," Percy counted. "Two... Three!" Percy hooked the edge of the stick around Tyson and threw (sort of) him to the edge. Tyson landed in the soft snow.
"See?" Percy asked, cheerfully. "That wasn't too bad." Suddenly, the ice beneath him gave way and he was plunged into the ice cold water beneath. Percy heard Tyson scream and he caught a glimpse of his terrified expression. That was the last thing Percy heard and saw. The ice water was cold and the boy started suffocating. Percy was a good swimmer but the temperature made his limbs freeze.
Before he knew it, Percy had closed his eyes and died.
...
I died. I had died. But don't worry, I'll be revived again. But there's a catch.
Brace yourselves because I won't remember who I was.
I was a new person.
...
Percy couldn't breath. His eyes opened bit by he dead ? Percy saw the Moon. It was suddenly so bright and he felt drawn towards it. The next thing that happened, Percy was lifted from the water by some force. When his body broke out of the ice, his first reflex was to take deep breaths. Percy's body was ice cold and he looked at everything in wonder. Percy was put down on the ice and he gathered his energy. Percy looked at his hands. They were pale. Very pale.
A hand traveled to his hair. It was a dark colour but a few strands were silver. Percy looked into the water to see his own reflected image. He noted that his eyes were sea green. Who was he? Percy couldn't recall any memories at all. The Moon shone very brightly, making Percy's attention turn to it. Percy stared at it in awe.
Your name is Percy Jackson Overland Frost now. Your previous identity is in the past.
...
That was about the only thing the Man In the Moon told me. He never tells me anything. I feel so loved.
...
Percy was wobbly when he stood up. The boy staggered forward and something wooden hit his foot. he looked down to see an odd long stick with a hook for the end. He toed it, cautiously and frost appeared where his skin made contact with it. He leaned down and took it in both his hands.
As soon as Percy touched it, frost grew around the area his hands had clutched. Percy held it daintily and became unbalanced. The end of the stick hit the ice and a long trail of frost came out of it. Percy marveled at what he had done. This stick is special to him. It shall become his staff.
Percy reached over and made the tip of his staff hit the bark of the tree. Immediately, frost began to form. The boy ran his hand along the cold frost in wonder. He did the same thing to another tree. Then, Percy ran across the ice, dragging the stick behind him. A trail of frost followed him wherever he went. The ice was slippery and Percy almost slipped. A string gust of wind lifted him into the air and Percy struggled to stay balanced.
The boy looked down to see that the frost he dragged created some patterns. He momentarily forgot to hold himself together and the wind dragged him around. He landed in a tree. Percy didn't feel pain. He was happy. He could make frost and snow appear and he felt that he was awesome. Percy eventually stood up and he noticed some lights in a distance. He recognized it as a town.
Percy flew in the air, towards the town. When he arrived, he landed ungracefully and brushed some frost off of his arm. He marched, merrily into town, greeting anyone who passed him. Unfortunately, they never answered him back. Percy didn't let that affect him. He turned to some kids who were joyfully running around.
"Hey, can you tell me where I am ?" He asked. The kid didn't hear him. Even worse, the kid could pass right through Percy. Percy gasped, horrified. He jumped when a man passed through him. He stared at everyone in panic. What happened ? He couldn't be a ghost. He could touch everything and he was breathing.
Percy realized that he was invisible.
And that was 300 years ago.
...
Aw, Poor me. I was ignored.
But don't fret, I'll get by. In fact, I am now a Guardian. I fight alongside Santa, Tooth Fairy, Easter Bunny and the Sandman. We protect the children. However, I wasn't that ecstatic about being a Guardian at the beginning. The story of how I became one and discovered my purpose is interesting.
It all started at the North Pole...
A/N :
