Ok guys so this chapter didn't really flow as much as the previous one did and I admit that it is probably not my best work but all the same hope you enjoy it :)

Percy P.O.V

I woke up with my mum hovering over me with an anxious yet aggravated expression. That's when I remembered last night and I broke. Just like that, I shattered. I buried my face in my pillow and pulled my covers over my head, ignoring my mum. I stayed there for about ten minutes before my mum got annoyed and pulled my covers off my bed and I was just glad that I didn't get undressed before falling asleep last night.

"Are you alright?" mum asked me. I just grunted at that one and she sighed the next statement froze me, "your report card came in" well that explained the aggravation in her expression. I sighed and decided rather I'd face the music now rather than later. I rolled over and waited for the rant that was sure to come. My mother didn't even look angry anymore just disappointed. She sighed and said "you're going to your aunts for the summer. I opened my mouth to object but she cut me off "I told you this would happen if you didn't pick up your grades. But it's not just that, I'm hoping to get you away from Calypso and keep you from moping around, this is as much a gift as a punishment." She said in a tired voice.

"What about my friends" I exclaimed.

"I spoke about it to Grover last night after you were asleep and he agreed that you need to get away from the city for a while" she said "though he said that he'd miss you"

I felt defeated, my best friend had sold me out without even talking to me about it, though I couldn't really get mad because he always has my best interests at heart and that if he considered this to be the best thing for me then it probably was so I agreed to go without much more arguing and my mother seem surprised that I caved so easily. As she left she said "I'll miss you but it's for the best I think" and with that she left my room, closing the door behind her.

After taking a shower Percy started packing his things into a bag making sure that he had enough clothes to last at least two weeks because he did not know what he would be doing at his aunt's place, probably helping out his cousins with the farm work or something like that. When he had packed his things he went to his mother's room to see if she was there. She was and she was talking on the phone and giggling like a school girl which I found odd but then I heard her say 'sorry Paul, but that was so funny' so she was talking to Paul which made sense as they were going out. I knocked on the door and mum told me to come in. She said good bye to Paul and asked if he was ready to leave for the airport saying that she had already booked him a ticket that morning.

As we were heading to the airport we were both silent but we both knew that they would miss each other the entire summer. When we reached the terminal my mother hugged me and made me promise to call her when I landed and then at least once a week after that. As I was walking down the hall to board the plane I looked back and saw that my mother was crying. I turned around and ran back to give her a hug tears welling in my eyes as I did so. Before I could start crying I pulled away, kissed her on the forehead and left before she could see me crying.

After boarding the plane I put my carryon bag in the overhead compartment and sat in my seat preparing to sleep. I really hate flying, I feel like the old Greek God Zeus was slapping around the plane with each spot of turbulence and the only way I could get through it without throwing up is to sleep through the whole flight. As I started to drift off I vaguely noticed the seats filling up around me.

When the plane landed I was woken up by the stewardess. I grabbed my carry-on bag and headed to baggage collection to get my bag before heading out to the parking lot looking for my aunt. As I emerged from the airport I felt the heat life a hit to the stomach, it was swelteringly hot though bearable. My aunt wasn't there but I could see a guy about my age looking at me curiously so I wandered over and said coolly "Done staring yet?" the guy jumped and then held out his hand and smiled sheepishly as he said "Jason Grace, you must be Percy" I took the hand and we shook as I studied him in turn. I hadn't seen him since I was little and I could not really remember him. He had close cropped blond hair, and shockingly blue eyes. He was quite muscular and I guess that comes from working on a farm all your life. He was athletic looking and fit again it's the farm work. I was slightly taller though and that made me feel better as it meant that these people weren't superior to me in every way.

"Done staring yet?" he mimicked my earlier question with a smile. I decided that I liked him and I hoped that the rest of his family were as relaxed and easy going as he was.

Picking up my bag he led me over to an oldish looking ute that was parked in the lot. He threw my back into the tray and pulled out a set of keys he opened the door which wasn't locked gesturing for me to join him inside the cab. Once I did he started the engine with a raw and pulled out of the lot [A/N: again I'm Australian and here a pickup truck is a ute. Get used to it ;)]

We drove for about half an hour leaving the township far behind and were driving through green paddocks covered in either some sort of crop or cattle. After a while we turned up a dirt drive way and pulled up to a three story old house. The top floor most likely being an attic. Jason jumped out of the ute and lifted my bag out of the tray and walked casually towards the house. About a meter [AN Australians use metric system so no ft.] from the veranda he paused to wait for me to catch up seeing as how I had been staring at my new home for the next few months. Slowly I drew level with him, still staring at the house, trying to remember every detail of it, from the slightly faded colour of the paint, to the shutters on the windows. There was house about a hundred meters from the one were my family lived and I wondered who lived there. I could see a man with blond hair and tan skin sitting by the front door.

As I drew level with Jason I heard the screen door open and out came a girl that looked had short spiky black hair, blue eyes, and was dressed in black punk style clothes. Jason turned to me as she marched up to me, hand extended to shake. I took the hand as Jason introduced us. "Percy this is Thalia my sister, and Thalia this is Percy." Jason and Thalia looked almost nothing alike except for their eyes which were an identical electric blue.

"Yes, I kind of guessed that as that's who mum sent you to get from the airport," Thalia shot at her brother then she smiled at me saying, "it's good to see you again. Though you probably don't remember me seeing as you were only just starting to walk last time we met."

I laughed, already liking this part of my family just as much as the one back in New York. I replied by saying, "your right I don't remember you at all" she smiled shaking her head at her brother before turning around and walking back inside the house calling back to him as she went "Annie and Luke are coming over later, she called when you weren't here."

We followed her into the house Jason saying "Annabeth Chase and Luke Castellan are our best friends, they're together" though he grimaced when he said Luke's name making me wonder if he really did think of Luke as his best friend. When I questioned his about it responded by saying "Annabeth is like my sister and Luke is a known player. I just don't want to see her get hurt" I grunted deciding that I would reserve judgement until I met this Luke guy. Jason led me into the house, still carrying my bag, and into the kitchen which is where I first met my aunt.

She had strait blonde hair that was an exact match to Jason's, and she had the same electric blue eyes as both her children, and her features were almost identical to Thalia's. She smiled at me warmly. She looked so much like my mother it was painful, the only differences between them were their hair, and eye colour. They stood at exactly the same height and even had the same what of smiling with the left side of their mouth lifting fist and the rest following.

She offered her hand and I took it with a smile of my own. Once again Jason introduced me and Aunt Mary said, "It's good to see you again Percy. How are you?"

"I'm … Okay." I lied. I could still feel the hole that Calypso had left in my chest in the place where my heart should be. "How about you Aunt Mary?"

She gave me a look that told me that she knew I was lying either from the tone in my voice or hat she had been talking to my mum. I was leaning more towards the latter, but that was just my gut instinct. "Call me Mary, please" she said in response to the way the way I had referred to her and continued by saying "I'm good thank you." Then she turned to Jason and asked him to show me my room.

Jason left the kitchen and started up the stairs, I hesitated before following. When we made it up the stairs I found that there was a hallway that stretched the length of the house with four five doors coming off it three were obviously bedrooms and one a bathroom. Jason led me to the door that was at the far end of the hall and opened the door. It was obviously a guest bedroom with bare walls and a plain bed cover. Jason dumped my bag on the bed and turned to me saying "so here you go. It's nothing fancy but it'll do you for now. Unpack and make yourself at home." With that he left. Closing the door behind him.

I unpacked my things and tried to make the room look like it was being lived in. I put all my cloths away and then pulled some of the things that I had bought with me from the bag and set them on the small desk in the corner. This had taken him about 45 minutes and so he decided that he would go and have a look around the house.

As I wandered out of my room I remembered something and turned around to go back in. I emerged a minute later with my toiletries bag and went to the bathroom at the opposite end of the hall. Not normally having to share with someone he went straight in. I was met with a screech and I glimpsed Thalia only wearing a towel before being forced backwards out the door and having it slammed shut behind him. I stumbled to the wall on the other side of the hallway and slid down the wall content to wait for Thalia to finish.

When the door opened again Thalia came out with a red face but fully clothed. She yanked the door open and yelled at me saying "What the hell Jackson! Haven't you ever heard of knocking?! What the hell is wrong with you?!

My cheeks reddened as well as she yelled. When she stopped to take a breath I said "Look I'm sorry I have never had to share a bathroom before, and I wasn't thinking. I was just going to put my stuff in there and I didn't think that there was anyone in there because I couldn't hear anyone. She seemed to except this and walked away with a huff, so I walked into the bathroom and put all my stuff away. When I emerged from the bathroom I found that I no longer wanted to explore my new home and decided to go down to the kitchen and see how Mary was doing, and so I headed downstairs.

When I got the kitchen I found that Mary was half way through cooking dinner and so I sat down at the table and made small talk with her, trying to find out more about her family and the small community that lived in the area. She told me that there were only two other teenagers in the area around the farm and they were Annabeth and Luke. She told me that Annabeth lives in the house next door which is not 100 meters from our front do and I thought that that answered my earlier question. She also told me that Luke lived a couple of kilometres back towards town. I thought about this information for some time. I came to the conclusion that it was going to be a boring summer, even if I was glad to be here as it got me away from the drama of Calypso and Malcom.

I was drawn out of my thoughts when we heard the screen door creek open. Mary rolled her eyes when she glanced at the clock that hung on the wall muttering something about how they were always perfectly on time. I turned to the door to the kitchen just as two people entered. It was a boy and a girl I examined the guy first, he had dirty blond hair and aright features but they were marred by a scar that ran down the side of his face. He was tall at least as tall as my 6"2 and he was buff, his arms well defined and his shirt tight across his chest.

I switched my gaze to the girl and my breath came out in a rush.

So... I apologise if its terrible but please don't judge to harshly like I said its my first ever fan fic

Please review it'll give me motivation :)
