Annabeth's P.O.V

I was walking into my best friend's mansion. My mom usually send me to my dad's for the summer but after what happened last year with his new wife, I don't think I'll be going there for the summer again. My best friend Thalia was a crazy,punk super fun to hang around, and Although people thought I was boring because I enjoy books and so on, she always hanged with me. We'd met the first day of second grade. Her, Luke, and I had been the best of friends. When we started in third grade Luke moved away. Thals and I took our time to get over his leave but with each other's help we brought back the fun in our friendship. My mom was known to be the best Architect in the U.S. Mom would always be very busy during the summer traveling around the country, she used to send me to my dad's house but now I depended on my best friend. As I was saying I was walking into Thalia's mansion. I went up the steps and a maid opened the door for me.

"Thank's Maria," I said. She nodded.

"My pleasure ." Maria was like a mother to Thalia. Her biological mother had died in a car crash. You see Beryl Grace had been Zeu's lover and had two kids with him, but he was married to Hera .Beryl noticed that Zeus had no intentions in marrying her so she became alcoholic. One day she was driving and killed herself. Hera hated Thalia and her one year younger brother, Jason. When Jason was five he didn't want to live here anymore so his father send him to live with his uncle Poseidon. So Thalia had been raised by herself.

"Mistres Thalia is in her room packing," Maria said again.I nodded and went up the stairs. I was aware that Hera had requested for Thalia to go to Zeu's brother house to spend the summer and I would be traveling with her.

"Thals, I am here," I said entering her room without permission.

"Annie hurry up. I am ready, the jet leaves in ten minutes," she answered. She looked excited. I understood she was going to see her good side of the family, the people who truly cared for her and her brother.

The jet was comfortable. Thalia slept,the whole ride. I fell asleep a few minutes before we landed on Malibu, California. I woke up when I heard the plane land. I looked to my left and saw Thalia she looked relieved to have I remembered my best friend's fear of heights.

We got out of the jet and Thalia squealed.

"JASON, PERCY, BIANCA, HAZEL,AND DEATH BREATH,'' she yelled running past me. There was a group walking towards us. When the three boys and two spotted Thalia they made a group hug possition, and she jumped right in it.

"Wow Thals, it's nice to see you too," The girl said. Then one of the boys who had black messy hair and sea green eyes caught my eyes. He was cute. He looked at me for a second. Then he handed me his hand and I shook it.

''Hi, I am Percy Jackson and you?'' he asked.

''Annabeth Chase. Thalia's friend, I guess your 's son huh?'' I asked. Thalia and I had gone over everyone in her family. Well she had told me all their names. I had never seen any of them, well all but Jason.

''Oh come on Kelp Head don't make Anne uncomfortable,'' Thalia said as she playfully punched his shoulder.

''Don't call me that,'' he and I both said.

''No way, we agree that Thalia's nicknames suck,'' a boy who looked around fourteen said. He had dark black hair and was very pale. I guess this was 'Death Breath'. Or in other words Nico Di-Angelo.

'' Yeah, she sucks at nicknames,'' I said. Thalia placed a hand over her heart and faked a gasp.

''I can not believe my eyes, my best friend has dumped me for my cousins.''

A man who looked like an older version of Percy walked up to us,'' Thals, it's good to see you again.''

''You too, uncle Poseidon,'' she said happily. They hugged. She let go and said,'' This is the longest hug your ever gonna get from me.''

''Might as well enjoy it then,'' he replied, and hugged her again.

Later that day we arrived at the Jackson Mansion. Percy opened the car door for me. I smiled at him and stepped out. I looked around and noticed we were looking at a mansion that looked similar to Thalia's.

''Our houses were all designed and constructed by the same people.'' Percy said. I guess this is some family thing.

''Lets go in, Piper, Rachel, and Calypso, along with Leo and Frank are inside.'' Jason mumbled. Who are all this people.

Thalia seemed excited. ''No way, I am finally going to meet my sister-in-law.''

''Yep. Oh and let's not forget the band." Jason said excitedly while grining.

''Let's go inside.'' Bianca ordered. Poseidon came out of the car and smiled at us. Although him and Zeus looked alike, Poseidon seemed happy and was always smiling.

''Percy, Jason make sure everyone is having fun. I have to go see Tyson, he told me this morning he'd be over at Ella's,'' I looked at Percy who nodded towards his dad.

''Wait dad, what about Triton?'' As soon as he said that, his cousins smiles faultered. Who the hell is Tyson, and Triton.

''Percy, be nice. He is your br,'' he was cut of by Percy.

"Correction HALF-brother.''

''Well he's your half-brother and you need to get along so why don't you invite him to hang out.'' And with that Poseidon left. The cousins all began sulking as we walked up the steps to the mansion.

''Why do we get stuck with the son of a bird,'' Thalia grumbled. Just then a kind looking lady opened the door for us. Percy smiled.

''Mom, you remember Thalia right?'' The kind woman nodded and smiled,''and that's her best friend Annabeth.''

Was this Poseidon's wife? I didn't think so. If I remembered corectly. Percy had been Poseidon's first kid when he was seventeen. Then Kronos, Poseidon's dad made him marry some lady called Amphirite.

''Come in girls. Everyone is waiting in the family room. Oh guys you wont guess who came while you guys were in the airport.''

''Chiron.'' Thalia said. Sally shook her head no.

''Oh I know, I know Clarisse.'' Nico really did try.

''Nope.''

''Luke?'' Bianca asked. Thalia and I eyed each other.

''Yep, he's here.'' Sally answered. We walked through the house and I have to say, it was amazing. The design, plus the architecture. It reminded me of Greek constructions.

We entered another room, but this one had a bunch of teens watching TV.

''Guys, we're back.''As soon as Jason said that. He was attacked by a girl with brown hair. They started to make out so I assumed she was his girlfriend. All the teens watching TV stood up. I examined each and everyone. Until I came across the last one. I knew that face. Thalia puts her hand on top of my shoulder as if to say. ''It's him alright".

"It's nice to see you again Luke.''I said, and Thalia nodded.

''Anne, Thals! Your faces never change,'' he exclaimed. I looked at him weardly.

''Although it looks like you already know each other let me introduce you, Annabeth, Thalia, this is Luke Castellan. My neighbor, Luke this is my cousin Thalia Grace, and her best friend Annabeth Chase.'' Percy introduced us. I couldn't help but to smile at least now we were together with Luke again.

''Okay, Luke as happy as I am to see you, I have been dying to hear Kelp Head, Jason and their band sing.'

''Oh right,'' he said. I smiled at him. We took our seats on the different sofas, some of us even sat on the floor even though there was enough chairs. You can guess who that was. Yes if you guessed Thalia your right.

Percy, Jason, Leo, and Frank stood up. Percy grabed a chair and sat on it. He got a gitar that was hanging from the wall. Leo went to a corner of the room where I saw the drums. Jason took the piano. And Frank another gitar.

Percy started to play.

Percy, Jason, Leo,Frank ,(All)

''When the visions around you.

Bring tears to your eyes, and all that surrounds you, are secrets and lies''

''I'll be your strength,

I'll give you hope. Keeping your faith when it's gone.

The one you should call.

Was standing here all alond.''

''And I will take, you in my arms and hold you right where you belong''

''Till the day my life is trhough this I promise you, this I promise you''

''I've loved you forever, in life times before. And I promise you never, will hurt anymore''

''I give you my word,I give you my life. This is a battle we have won,and with this vow,forever has now began''

''(Just close your eyes, each loving day,and know this fealing wont go away. No)''

''Till the day my life is through, this I promise you.''

''(This I promise you)''

''Over and over I fall, when I hear you come''

''(Without you in my life,baby)''

''I just couldn't believe this at all''

''(And I will take, you in my arms, and hold you right where you belong.''

''Till the day my life is through, this I promise you.''

''(Just close your eyes, each loving day. And love this fealing wont go away.''

''Every word I say is true this I promise you.''

''Every word I say is true this I promise you.''

''Uh I promise you.''

The room exploded with aplauses. They were awesome.

''Congratulations!'' Thalia exclaimed as she rushed to Percy and Jason and huged them. Rare right?

Now that I thought about it. Why did Leo need the drums. He hadn't even touched them, but I guess that's his instrument.

''You know what we should do tonight?'' Asked Piper. We all looked at her, as if questioning.

''We should have a kareoke night.'' As soon as those left her mouth I felt like fainting. But everyone else thought it was a good idea. I just kept on praying that I wouldn't have to sing, but now that I look back it feels like thegods didn't hear me that one time.

Everyone started preparing the family room. Rachel left because her dad didn't let her have sleep overs. Piper was in one of Jason's shirts, while wearing a pair of pajama shorts I let her borrow since we use the same size. Hazel, Bianca, and Nico apparently lived right across with their dad. Who is Poseidon's other brother. Calypso was also staying in the mansion, because her dad was in Europe. Leo, and Frank had clothe here, because whenever they had band rehersal they stayed for the night.

Just when we were all about to start, someone entered the house. I looked towards the door to see a lady, with a boy. She eyed us.

''Thalia it's nice to see you!'' She exclaimed. Thalia smiled.

''You too aunt Amphirite.'' Then she looked at the boy,'' and Triton.''

The last words were grited out. For some reason, they all seemed to hate this boy, I guess because he was Poseidon's only legitimate son. I guess I am about to find out, since either way he's staying with us.

Triton smiled wikedly. And that's when I knew this night would be tough... for most of us.
