AN: Hey everyone long time no see! Welcome to the start of the story. It is being revamped and redone with new ideas and longer chapters. The core plot is the same however. And yes I know the "Annabeth cheats on Percy" and "Percy is betrayed" Has been overdone a lot. I will try to avoid things like that as much as possible but hey it's fan fic it's bound to happen. Anyways I will try to keep the AN to a minimum when possible at least one hundred words or less. Well I hope you enjoy the Story Guys.
Chapter One: Betrayal
(Percy pov)
I walked into camp happier then I have been in a month. You see I had just got back from a quest for Athena and Artemis to earn their respect as a man to marry Annabeth. In case your wondering I had to go defeat Landon steal five apples then after delivering those apples I had to beat, not kill but beat a drakon. After careful planning I figured out how to do all this it took me a month but I did it.
As I walk up the stairs to the big house Chiron is as per usual sitting there watching for new arrivals.
"Hey there Chiron! I'm back and reporting in like you wanted me to." You see ever since the war with the titans, giants and Gia when you leave camp for any reason you have to report back to Chiron so that he can be sure your really ok. Chiron smile seemed forced as he looked at me."Ah Percy my boy, I see you have come back in one piece how was your quest?" I smiled dismissing the forced smile and laugh,"Hard but worth it, hey do you know were I can find Annabeth?"
At the mention of my girlfriends name Chiron's smile vanished and he looked at me and pointed to the beach "She is down there and Percy promise me something my boy."
I cocked my head to the side,
"Anything for you what is it?"
Chiron put his hand on my shoulder "No matter what happens know I am here for you and when you talk to her let her leave before you react ok?"
I nod my head confused "Sure..." I walk through camp down top the beach and as I am walking I notice that there is nobody around. I shrug it off and walk up to Annabeth smiling as I reach into my pocket I call out "Hey there wise girl I'm back!" Annabeth turns around and I notice that there are bags next to her she refuses to look me in the eye as she talks.
"Percy I need to tell you something, I am taking up an offer to restore the Pantheon." I smile and laugh and say as I kneel down,
"that's great news! Now-" Annabeth look up and grabs her bags as she looks at me and says,
"I am leaving today and I am breaking up with you. You're never around anymore Percy and there's a guy named Mark who is working on it with me and I want to be with him not you."
When I hear her say that I freeze, she walks past me and when she is right by my ear she bends down and whispers,"I never really loved you anyways."
As she walks off I can feel my heart slowly shattering as the wind picks up and the sea rages with 30 feet waves my hand tumbles out of my pocket as I turn and throw the engagement ring at her. The gem in the middle is a perfect mix of a shining gray and a sea green the color of our eyes and the band is made of the same silver that Artemis's chariot is made of. Annabeth stops picks it up and call out "It will be with Chiron."
As soon as she is out of sight I scream in rage and the world around me responds the sea roars and rages with 60 feet tall waves the sky clouds over and darkens as 2 feet wide lightning bolts strike down the ground shakes as skeletons rise up and die over and over again. Hours later I finally stop screaming and look around in disbelief amazement.
Shining bright is a barrier of godly energy as the Olympians and most of the minor gods and goddess force the raw power and fury of the world around me to just a small bubble around me but it has cracks and suddenly falls apart. I stand up on the small strip of land that connects me to the now destroyed beach and the gods and goddesses pass out.
I run back to my cabin and gather my things and write a letter for everyone that says:
"Dear family and friends, I am sorry for the damage I have caused but I can't stay at camp anymore it hurts to much after what Athena's Daughter did. Don't look for me I love you all but I wont be back."

Time Skip
(No-one's POV)
Chiron stared off into the distance deep in thought as he half listened to the complaining of Mr. D. It had been five years since Percy had left camp and the search for him had turned up nothing. He remembered the aftermath of Percy's rage like it was yesterday.
(flash back to the day after Percy left)
The gods had called a meeting on Olympus about Percy's actions. Annabeth was standing next to her mother's throne going over plans, Thalia was sitting next to Artemis's throne most of the camp was there also. Even Chiron was present. The council was in an uproar after they had recovered from preventing Percy from destroying the camp.
"The boy is a threat! We must hunt him down!" Zeus yelled over the rest while slamming his master bolt on his thrones arm. Instantly Poseidon was up seething in rage as was Hades, Hestia, Apollo, Hera and surprisingly Artemis.
"No!" they called out as one. Zeus sat back a bit in his throne shocked at the support Percy received. Artemis leaned forward.
"Father we don't know why Percy did what he did. He has proven his loyalty time and time again and he has earned my respect as a man and Warrior despite his lack of skill with a bow." The other gods and goddesses nodded in agreement as she continued, "why don't we find out what happened before judging him? Percy Jackson had lived through two prophesies and two wars. He had more stress put on him during these times and didn't break." The others murmured sadly in agreement remembering the suffering Percy went through. Chiron stepped forward to the center of the throne room.
"Lord Zeus if I may speak?" Zeus smiled in a rare sign of fondness and motion for him to continue, " I know what caused our young hero to break and I swear upon the Styx that what I speak is the truth as I know it." Chiron paused as thunder rumbled and Zeus leaned forward with the rest of the council eager to hear what he had to say.
"After Percy left on his quest for Athena and Artemis, Annabeth received her offer to work on the Pantheon as most of you know." Chiron began as the council nodded and Athena looked at her daughter proudly,"But what nobody except myself knew, and I only knew from overhearing a phone call, was that Annabeth was cheating on Percy with the mortal who gave her this job named Mark." Chiron paused waiting for it to sink in. Thalia was the first to react as she pulled out her bow and aimed it at Annabeth rage showing on her face but Athena stopped her as the rest of the council finally realized what had happened.
Annabeth finally looked up from her plans as she was pushed to the center of the room. She paled when she saw the outrage and fury of everyone in the room. She fidgeted as the council had a mental debate as how to punish her. Athena gasped in shock suddenly and cried out.
"No! Even with what she did that's to harsh!" Annabeth looked up at Zeus as he looked around the room.
"All in favor of the punishment of this Spawn of Athena?" Zeus asked all except
Athena raised their hands as Athena sobbed softly in her throne Zeus stood up. "Annabeth Chase as punishment for destroying the twice over Hero of Olympus you shall lose any connection to your mother. Any abilities or powers or anything of godly nature shall be removed. You shall come a clear sighted mortal but that is all." Annabeth fell to the ground as she glowed gray and a ball of gray energy left her and when into a jar that Hestia held. Hestia stepped forward and spoke.
"If the time ever comes that you have proven yourself worthy and Perseus Jackson Hero of Olympus has forgiven you then you will get it back, but not until those requirements are met." Zeus dismissed the council with the parting words." Search for our hero we need to ensure his safety."
(end flash back still no-ones POV)
Chiron sighed softly as he vaguely hears Mr. D saying something about a new meeting and some news before he leaves "Percy my boy, were are you?"
(Thalia's POV)
Four years Percy, I thought to myself as I walked around the hunter's camp. Four years since Percy left camp and disappeared without even really saying goodbye. Sure that Kelp for brains left a letter but it didn't tell me anything. I was brought out of my thoughts with a hand on my shoulder. I turned and looked up into my lady's silver eyes.
"We will find him I promise you Thalia." she said softly. I nodded then suddenly turned to the sound of branches snapping drawing my bow then relaxing only a bit when a young girl maybe 14 stumble into the camp she was clutching something in her hands. Artemis ran up to her and caught her as she fell forward. The girl looked up and whispered softly with a hoarse voice, "He said that I will be safe here but there are monsters back there he needs your help." with that she passed out.
"Take her to the medical tent. Thalia! Phoebe! With me!" Artemis yelled drawing her bow and running into the woods in the direction that the girl came from. As we got deeper into the woods we could hear the sound of battle and strangely enough we could hear a male laughing. When we came to a clearing we could only stand in amazement at the sight.
(Unknown POV)
I smiled sofly as the little girl ran to were I could sense The Hunt. I flicked my wrists out as my two main weapons shimmered into my hands. They both were idential solid metal bars that seemed to flow and shimmer several colors.
"Well at least she will be safe." I though to my self as I listened to the sound of the monsters running to me, "now I get to have some fun!" I stand still with one rod pointed at the ground and the other held perfectly straight in front of me as the monsters broke the treeline into my clearing.
I let my eyes roam over them "Well Well Well," I drawl slowly "Are you all here for little old me?" I can see a mixture of hell hounds,Empousa and harpies just in the front. Judging by the larger shapes in the back there are bigger and badder ones too.
I smirk as they charge at me place my headphones in and activate my pre laid trap and playlist. When it goes off ninty percent of the monsters were sliced through as the earth itself spiked up and stabed though them. And then they were on me and the dance began. My metal rods shimmered and became duel swords and over my body armor shimmered into place looking just like my weapons. I charged at the group sensing some of the hunt getting closer. I laughed as I danced around the remaining monsters slashing with my duel swords, golden monster dust showing me as I called out to the monsters.
"Is this all that you have to offer?" I ducked under a familiar huge ax and leaped back glaring at an old enemy. "You!" I pointed my blade at the Minotaur while stabing a couple of hell hounds behind me, "I just killed you last week!" The minotaur actually laughed and then to top it off he spoke!
"This will be your end Bane of Monsters!" The Minotaur roared and charged at me some how faster then the last time I faced him. I raised my blades crossed over each other to block the ax but the force of it sent me reeling. I growled and unleashed my emotions as I shoved the Minotaur's ax back making him stumble. I leap up sideways and slammed my feet into his chest as my left sword changed into a medium spear. Before the Minotaur could react I flipped over my spear turning it with me as it sliced up through his chest. I looked up to be greeted by a face full of golden dust and the sight of the remaining monsters fleeing. I spat out the monster dust and muttered to myself "great now I have to spend even more time tracking them down." I brushed myself off but froze at the sound of several bows being drawn and a very very familiar voice that I did not want to hear.
"Drop your weapons and turn around slowly boy." I sighed and knowing my armor would hide my appearance I willed my weapons to vanish and did as she asked while activating a feature on my armor that slightly changes my voice. "I'm sorry my Lady but I wont be staying."
(Artemis's POV)
As the male turned around I studied him closely. He was about six feet tall and completely covered in a strange armor set that seemed alive and a cloak that seem to melt into the shadows. The armor was a mixture of black, silver, gold and blue and constantly changed were the coloring was. It was almost hypnotic. I shook my self out of my thoughts when he said he wouldn't be staying.
"You are outnumbered boy. I suggest you come with me if you wish to have a chance at staying alive." I glared at the male as he laughed softly.
"I guess things haven't changed much have they? You Olympians still think that because you are an Olympian you get what you want? And is that any way to treat someone who has been sending maidens to your hunt?" I frowned a bit at that part.
"so your the one who has been sneaking into my camp?!" the male laugh out right then and slowly started walking backwards to the edge to the clearing.
"oh I never sneaked in I'm not that stupid." he froze and arrow suddenly embedded itself into the ground next top his foot.
"I see you trying to escape. That's not happening." Thalia growled out as she nocked another arrow. The male shook his head.
"sorry but I really have to go." he turned on the spot and disappeared in a swirl of golden fire and shadows. I groaned in frustration then noticed something that shook me to my core.
"Thalia look.." I pointed to were the male use to be. She followed my gaze and gasped as a very recognizable pen suddenly vanished. "Anaklusmos!"
