You know, when Chiron told me to start a Journal to record my experiences I laughed, but I may as well give it a shot. So this is Percy Jackson's Journal entry #1, let's see how it goes. The reason I was told to write a journal was to try and stop the nightmares from coming, so let's see how it goes. I guess I should start at the beginning.

I was never a normal kid, I remember stories on how I choked snakes to death as a baby, just like Hercules. I remember seeing people with only one eye, or dogs that were made of shadows. It wasn't explained until I was 12, but I was the son of a god, Poseidon if you believe it. But the relief of not going crazy was set off by the fact my m0om was kidnapped by my uncle, the god of the dead, Hades.

If I could go back to those days of simple fighting, I would take it. Just me, some friends, a destination, and lots of monsters. I remember fighting medusa on that quest, and thanks to a good bit of luck, I won. I won't lie, I should be dead, or whatever being turned to stone makes you. I wonder what that would feel like, would you still be alive until you died from starvation, oh well, questions to ask Annabeth later.

So we killed medusa, and should have been considered legends from that, something that only Perseus had done before. But I sent her head to the gods, and then we went and ended up at the st louis arch. During the train ride I think I saw the Nemean lion, but I may have been wrong. I remember fighting and losing to the chimera, but the poison messed up my memory, so everything's a little blurry from then.

The next bit of the quest I remember was the fact that I was in Santa Monica, and talking to a water spirit, or naiad, or whatever it was. I never did thank her, should send her a gift this year, maybe a seaweed basket. Anyway, after that whole thing, I remember fighting some crusty dude. I know that I'm probably missing a lot, but it's been 8 years, and a lot has happened since then. After walking for what at the time felt like hours, but was only probably around 20 minutes, we found the DOA studios. We entered and thanks to my amazing bargaining skills we got a ride to the underworld.

I remember Annabeth playing fetch with Cerberus, I found out he likes to play with big red balls. Me and Nico, sorry Nico and I, should go play with him sometime. Anyway, we then walked until we reached hades palace, at the time I didn't know it but it looked like a dark Olympus. I remember nearly losing Grover in Tartarus, and Ares tricking me into taking the master bolt, but I got out of the underworld with almost no problems.

Back on the surface, I remember this part good. I goaded Ares into fighting me in a sword fight, no godliness, but I tricked him, stabbed him in his ankle, got blood over the ground, won the duel. He ended up giving me the helm of hades, and left. I gave the helm to hades and got on a plane. I don't think Zeus could have blasted me without his bolt, but I still think he was trying to. After landing in New York I walked to Olympus, and it was beautiful. I remember telling Zeus about everything that happened, and he left to clean his bolt, what a wimp. I had a good talk with my pops, and then went home. When I got their I saw my mom, and a box on the bed. It was the same box I sent to Olympus, and I told my mom about it. She promised to do what she wanted and I went back to camp, and that was the summer of my first quest

I don't know what Chiron is planning, but he a bunch of us "Heroes" writing down stories, maybe he's making a book or something, I should ask him next time I see him. But ya, until next time book, see ya.

So ya, this is my new story, I have no clue when the next update will be, and I don't have a plan for how it's going. I do know that the stories will be biased, have holes, and some will be incomplete, due to demigod's horrible memory. So ya, give a reply for ideas, and stuff.

And if it wasn't obvious, don't own jack shit
