Hey! Hey you! Yeah, you there about to skip this overly long author's note! Yeah, I got you man, I skip it most of the time too, so with you guys in mind, I wrote down the basic gist of the note says in this short italicized part here: Don't be a butt, review, PM me if you need anything, and please check out this story's tumblr at ravenblouseandtheolympians{dot}tumblr{dot}com{slash} for more info read below, but you're probably going to skip it. You skipper, you.

Author's note: Hi I'm Piper-Audrey, Author of this fanfiction. Just a disclaimer: I do not own Percy Jackson or any of the characters except my own like Raven and Carson and Gracie and Cameron and so on and so forth (I'll probably put out a list of all the characters that are my own original characters at some point). Anyway if you like this please, please, please, review even if it's just to say to update soon or whatever, it's just that reviews let me know you guys enjoyed the story and encourage me to write, so review. Also I didn't think I had to say this but apparently I do: helpful. I literally cannot put enough emphasis on that. I don't care if you don't like the story, if you hate my writing than I really don't give a flying feather about your opinion. Just everyone a favor and just click to another story because no one wants to hear you complain about what you didn't like about my fanfiction, and if you think they do you are sorely mistaken. For those of you who do like my story though, review! And feel free to tell me if my spelling is off, or my grammar, or if there are plot-holes or details of the story that I missed! That's completely fine, as long as you're respectful towards me, I'll be respectful towards you! That way we can all get along and be friends, which is great because I'm really excited to get to know you all!

Speaking of reviews, if you have any questions please PM me! (I always respond first thing.) Asking questions in reviews is fine too, but just make sure you have read up to the latest update before asking because I might have already answered it in the story later on. That way I'm not answering the same question twenty times instead of writing, and I don't give away what could be a cool surprise in a later chapter, and you just don't realize it yet! Also sometimes I'll get questions from people who don't have an open inbox or are just guest on , If that's the case then just go ahead and check the latest updates to see if I gave you a shout out and answer questions in authors note, at the beginning or the end of chapter.

On the subject of private messaging, I just want to let you all know that I'm pretty Approachable, so feel free to PM me. Anything you want from me (even if you think its dumb) just shoot me a PM and I'll give you a lengthy reply as to what it is you're messaging me about. And really, PM me with anything, suggestions on what should happen in my fanfiction, headcannons you'd like me to incorporate into the story, some theory about this AU, or some theories you have about Raven that you'd like me to hear, who knows I might use them (and of course I'll give you credit in the story.) Whatever you want Just PM me and I'll get back to you. The more feedback I get from my fan, the better. I promise I don't bite!

Also if there is anything else you want to know another source of information for this story is it's tumblr here: ravenblouseandtheolympians{dot}tumblr{dot}com{slash} Sorry I have to type it like that, but the site won't allow you to post links so I have to write it like that. All you have to do is replace the {dot}s with an actual period and the {Slash} with an actual slash ( / ) But please check it out because I post tons of stuff there, artwork, videos, music, headcannons, announcements, sneak peeks, and shout outs to some of my amazing fans. There's a whole page of pictures of what I think the cannon PJO characters look like, and another page listing all my OCs along with pictures of what they look like, so for all my visual people, that's probably a cool place for you to check out. I also realize you can't copy and paste the link, but if you click on my name (Piper-Audrey Freeman) above I also have the link in my profile and you can copy and paste it there.

And with that please enjoy the story.

With Love, Piper-Audrey

Raven Blouse was never popular at her school. She didn't have many interests besides reading. She was a bit of a nerd and her best friends were the fictional characters created by her favorite author Rick Riordan. She was over active and over imaginative. She would have spent her whole life wishing to be part of that book if she hadn't decided to walk home on sunny day instead of take the bus.

Raven was imaginative but she'd never actually believed in Magic. Not in her Universe. The world of Percy Jackson was a thousand miles away. Out of her reach. She was thinking about that on Monday afternoon as she finished reading The Mark of Athena. She heaved a sigh. She was so done with this book. Okay that was a lie because she was never done with this book series but the point was still there. Her OTP was falling into Tartarus and she couldn't even cry about it because she was in the middle of 6th period. The best thing she could do to cope with the grieving was to go to the library after school and grab a copy of The House of Hades to see what was going to happen.

The bell rang and she and the other students hurried out of the room. Raven shoved her Book into her Canvas Bag that she had gotten from SAIC with their logo printed on the front. It was given to her the time she went with her sister to check out the school. That was a year ago and now she was going there. All the way in Chicago and Raven was stuck there in New England. She wished she could go on an adventure like Percy and his friends and see cool places like Chicago.

The whole school rushed around in the halls. Raven made her way to her 7th period class and tried to stay out of everyone's way. She squeezed into her study and reread The Titan's Curse (her favorite in the series) for the remainder of the school day. When the bell rang she texted her mom to let her know she'd be heading to the library after school instead of heading home on the bus.

Luckily for Raven the day was nice. It was late spring and the school year was almost over. Next year she'd be a sophomore. She didn't like high school all that much. She still felt like a kid. She didn't feel 15. She didn't feel a lot of ways. She walked along the streets and felt the cool air prick her skin. Her black hair was plated in twin braids over her shoulders, her bangs pinned back off her face.

She was so lost in thought she almost missed what was probably the biggest event that would ever take place in her life. It wasn't so much an event as it was a person. The person was a panhandler. Usually she avoided these types of people. They made her sad. But this one was different from the others. She was a beautiful woman in a long white dress and jewelry. She was holding a sign that simply said 'Hungry'. People scorned her and didn't take the beautiful woman seriously. She looked so sad that it nearly broke Raven's heart.

Raven bit her lip and walked over. She pulled her lunch bag out of her canvas bag and held it out to the woman. She hardly ever ate so she didn't need the lunch. The woman's eyes shone under the vial. She took the bag and gave raven a thankful smile.

"Such a kind girl," She mused, and Raven blushed, "I must give you something in return."

"Oh, no," Raven said, "You don't have to."

"No! I must! Take this." She took Raven's hand and pressed a golden coin into her hand.

"A coin?" Raven said curiously.

"Write down what you want most in the world on a piece of paper and be specific. Place a glass of water on top of the paper and put the coin in the water."

Raven recoiled. This woman was nuts but she just smiled politely and muttered a thanks before rushing off. She pocketed the coin. It was probably just an old novelty coin or whatever they were called. Her dad would want to see it though. He studied things like this. Old coins, buttons and documents. That kind of thing.

She decided to skip the library and walked home. When she got home she wasn't surprised to see her sister, Kelly, in the living room drawing in her sketchbook since collage was already out for her. Her brother was playing on his Xbox and yelling at his teammates. Nerd. Their parents weren't home yet but she could assume they'd be home shortly. She switched on the TV and turned on Bones and sat next to her sister.

"Hey there," Kelly said lazily, shading in an almost too realistic cat in her book with a black pencil. "How was school?"

"Fine I guess," Raven said shrugging. Kelly was probably Raven's best friend. She was about the best sister a girl could hope for, but part of what Raven didn't like about Kelly was that she was too good. Raven wasn't smart or talented like her sister and it was almost like her short comings were being rubbed in her face.

"Cool," Kelly said, "Mom said she might be home late and told me to tell you to get your homework done."

Raven sighed. That was the last thing she wanted to do at the moment but she shouldered her bag and trudged upstairs. She sat down on her bed and pulled out her books and paper and a purple mechanically pencil. She had algebra to do so she opened to the page. After about two minutes of homework she got bored. Then something fell out of her pocket and caught her attention. It was the coin the beggar woman had given her. It was small and perfectly round with some weird writing on it.

She doubted it had magic powers but she pulled out a piece of paper anyway and began to write out her wish carefully and neatly on the paper and every detail about it. When she was done she read it out loud to herself, quietly. Her voice barely above a whisper.

"I wish the Percy Jackson story was real. I wish I was part of it from the very beginning. I want to be twelve again and fight monsters with Percy and Annabeth as the daughter of Nemesis."

It sounded really dumb when she said it out loud. God she was such a nerd. But she was just humoring some woman. What harm could it do? Besides if should could have anything this was it. It was starting to get late so she put her books away and heard her mom and dad getting home.

She'd asked her dad about the coin but he had no idea where or when it was from so Raven just shrugged it off. She might as well go to be. She read more of The Titan's Curse before bed by the light of a flashlight. She looked at the clock. 11:55. she snuck out of bed and filled a green plastic cup with water and pulled out her wish. She placed it on her bedside table and placed the cup of water on top of it as her woman had said. She waited…just a little longer.

At exactly 12:00 she dropped the coin in the water.

She closed her eyes tight. She waited a second. Then two, until she'd waited a full minute. Nothing happened. She frowned almost disappointed. But what had she expected really. She was too old to believe in magic. Her wish was silly anyway. She rolled over and yawned. She was tired so she closed her eyes and fell asleep.
