Chapter 1: The betrayal

Percy (P.O.V)

After ten month I stood finally on Thalia´s Tree and looked on Camp Half- Blood. I made my way to the Athena cabin to look for Annabeth, but she wasn´t there.

I looked in the Arena, by the volleyball grounds and the pavilion, but she were nowhere.

I decided to look on the beach, by our favorite spot.

On my way I saw a lot of Campers staring at me and whispering.

Suddenly I saw Annabeth walking to me and I smiled and waved.

When she spotted me she smiled weakly. In my eyes this was the most beautiful smile ever.

When I was standing in front of her I said:

" Hey Annabeth, I´m back! Do you have a minute? I wanna show you something."

She looked at me funny and answered:

" Ah ok.. But I have to tell you something first. Can you follow me please?"

With that she turned around and went to the beach. I followed happily.

When we were on our secret spot she turned around and said:

" Percy I need to tell you something…. It´s a bit complicated…"

" Euh.. Ok, I´m hearing."

She took a deep breath and looked me in the eyes.

" I´m breaking up with you!"

For a moment I was speechless but then I started to laugh:

" Okay that joke was fabulous ! What do you really want to sa-"

" Shut up!" She snapped at me and looked angry.

"What I´m saying is true! I don´t love you anymore! I´m in love with another guy! So please stay out of my life!"

I looked shocked but then it made sense. All the apologies about our dates, the funny attitude when I left and the advice from Athena. It was all clear to me now. My heart was broken but it was my own fault. Athena and Aphrodite warned my but I couldn´t hear.

I felt tears in my eyes and asked with a crack in my voice:
" Who is it?"

She looked a moment stunned but answered:

" It´s the Hermes Kid Robert. He came a few month before you left. Why?"

I said with sadness in my voice:

" Because I want to speak with him…"

She looked at me and smiled weakly:

" Ok wait a minute I´m right back." With that she left to get him.

I sat down on the shore and looked over the sea. The moon was about to rose on the Horizon. It was a beautiful, yet sad moment.

Ten minutes later Annabeth and Robert came back.

I stand up and walked to Robert. He was about 1, 81 m tall and had sand-brown, short hair with hazel colored eyes.

I looked at Annabeth and asked her if she could let us a moment alone.

She nodded and backed away. When she left I turned to Robert.

He said:

" I´m sorry man, that I stole your Girlfriend, but we just fell in love an-"

" Hey it´s ok. I just want her to be happy and nothing more. Even if it break my heart, when she´s happy, I´m happy too. So please never hurt her or I´m going to hunt you down and kill you."

He looked at my with a bit sadness in his eyes:

" I´m so sorry man, but please don´t hate me, ok?"

I smiled weakly at him:

" It´s ok. Here-" I took the weddingring (Hephaistos made it for me) out of my pocket and gave it to him:

" When the time´s come use this! But now I have to go, Annabeth said that she won´t want me in her life, so Goodbye!"

I turned around and walked towards the sea when I noticed a person in the water. It was dad.

When I was besides him I asked:

" You saw everything, don´t you?"

He just nodded sadly and said:

" Come home Percy, we´re going to Atlantis."

With this we left the surface and teleported to Atlantis.

Whit that my new life begann.
