Note: Every few chapters, somewhere between 3 and 5 I'll be adding in a bonus chapter. The story will alternate between Percy and Nico but these bonus chapters aren't based entirely on them.

Hope you enjoy it.


Bonus Chapter One: I accidentally fall into the Sea of Monsters

=Clarisse=

There are many things I hate: Dresses, balls, and everything my mother expects me to do. It's so annoying, I'm a daughter of the War God for gods sake not some defenseless girl waiting for her prince in shinning armor. But here I was, attending another ball in the tightest dress I've ever been forced into. My hair was curled and put up in some sort of ponytail and makeup is dressed to my face and my mother is looking at me expectantly from across the ball room. Her arm linked with her husbands, my stupid step father who I barely knew.

She doesn't seem to get that boy's aren't coming near me because of the simple fact that I'm scaring them off. I don't want to dance with them, especially in these pitching shoes that I can hardly walk in. I can see Lady di Angelo, or Lady Maria talking patiently with each man who comes up to her, her two kids hanging at her side. 15-year-old Bianca di Angelo, 11-year-old Nico di Angelo and their half-sister, who Lady Maria takes care of, 10-year-old Hazel Levesque. There all children of a god like me, but Lady Maria refuses to tell anyone what god had courted her. To make it even better she even refuses to take on a husband.

My mother sent a glare my way and I ignored it. I'm twelve god dammit I don't want to be some guys child barer. So I did the natural thing, I turned away and marched out of the ballroom. Who cares if I'm beat later for it, it's not her choice who I marry. I took off my shoes when I was far enough away from the stupid mansion and I just walked the streets. By the time I started paying attention to where I was going, I found myself at the docks. I looked at my shoes then out at the water, and did the logical thing. They soared through the air slowly getting higher than landing in the water with a bog slash, surprisingly. "Ha!" I yelled out at them. "I'll never have to wear you again!"

"Did those shoes ever do anything to you?" The voice asked making me jump. I turned to see a boy, casually leaning against a chariot. He didn't look like he was from around here, he had sun-kissed blond hair and a nice tan. His eyes were blue and twinkling in amusement. "For an Aries kid you look good." I narrowed my eyes at him

"Who are you?" I asked reaching for the dagger I normally carried with me, but I was in a dress, and mom had made sure I was weaponless.

"Aww you don't recognize me?" He seemed genuinely hurt. "I mean, I know I don't look like your dad and all but I am his brother." I frowned. "Apollo," he greeted. "I was bored and you looked bored so I thought, hay, why not take you out for a ride? You can drive." He stepped aside to show the chariot. Two golden horses were waiting for something to do. I stepped forwards cautiously then stepped into the golden vehicle.

It was warm, but I half expected that. If this guy was telling the truth and was the God of the Sun, music and other things then the chariot was, technically the sun. "Okay take the reins," he told me stepping next to me and I took the golden rope attached to the horses. "It'll be tricky at first, take it slow and if you feel like you can't do it, let me take over." He told me. "Slow at first or else you're loose your footing and fall. Don't want that to happen do we?" He gave me a crooked smirk and I wondered if the entire point of this trip was just that, to get me to fall off the chariot. So I took his advice and nudged the horses to go.

Slow, wasn't what happened. The horses didn't seem to like me guiding them and they raced forwards out into the ocean. I clutched on to the reins, and a million curses were flying through my head "Stay clear of the cloud!" Apollo called to me, and I wanted to scream at him: you never taught me how to turn, you stupid fuck! But my voice was clearly not working. We slammed right into the cloud and I was soaked and shivering from the cold. The wet golden rope was sipping out of my hands and I could hear the stupid god laughing next to me. "Don't pull up!" He told me as we started rising into the sky. But of course, now I was shivering to much to make my mouth work the right way.

The rope slipped from my fingers and I felt myself falling. I seemed to fall for ages, and my only thought was: well fuck, I'm going to die because of that stupid god. Eventually, I felt something wet against my back, it seemed to catch me then I was under water. I willed my limbs to work, forcing them to bring me back to the surface and I pulled myself onto the first thing I could feel.

I woke up in the oddest way possible, chained upside down above a boiling pot of water. "What the fuck!" I struggled against my chains, this was too embarrassing. I tried to see where I was, in a cave, okay, how did I get in a cave? I remember collapsing on a beach. "I'll get you Nobody!" The roar echoed through the chamber.

"How can you?" A girl's voice asked. "You can't even see me!" She taunted. I felt myself being lowered and turned trying to see why. An angered roar answered the girl's taunt. "You're too big and stupid!"

"How dare you!" He stomped pass the large entrance to the cave I was in. I felt my heart sink. Cyclops, there's a Cyclops here. And he has me trapped, weaponless and slowly sinking into the boiling water below me.

"How's your eye doing? Can you still see?" The girl taunted. I dropped several feet and a trembling scream escaped my lips. I could see the large pot under me being moved, and someone walking through the fire just to move it. Some of the water floated out of the pot and landed in the fire, extinguishing it. "Big stupid head, I'm over here!" I was lowered further and then there was a clash against the chain as it broke. I fell into large arms and gave a small yelp of surprise before he put me down.

"Don't make a sound," a boy said next to me. "We're going to get off of this island." I turned to look at him, he had messy black hair and green eyes.

"Why should I-" he covered my mouth and glanced over at the door.

"Tyson, take her to the boat, I'll go and get Annabeth." He whispered and I felt myself being lifted into the air.

"Let me go-" he was running. Before I could say anything else I was sitting on a boat with a large boy who was apparently fireproof. He had short brown hair and brown eyes, on his arms were marks where the fire had touched him. "The hell is going on?!" I yelled at him, he flinched away.

"You were Polyphemus's prisoner so we saved you." He answered. "Annabeth was distracting Polyphemus so Percy and I could get you free." I noticed the boat we were on, it was small and normally could only fit maybe three people. Then the large black boat next to us.

"Why aren't we on that one?" I pointed to the larger boat next to us.

"This one is faster," he responded. "Percy can get it moving quicker so we can escape." I heard yelling above as a girl appeared holding something gold.

"Where are we?" I demanded of him.

"The Sea of Monsters, Polyphemus's island." He answered.

"Stupid! Look what I have!" The girl yelled waving the gold cloth. A moment later she was flying out into the sea the way I had thrown my shoes. Flying high into the sea and landing with a large splash, then disappearing into its depths.

"Annabeth!" The boy yelled appearing on the cliff. He dove right into the rock filled water below.

"Is he mad?" I asked.

"Son of Poseidon." The boy responded. There was silence while Polyphemus bellowed from the top of the cliff.

"I killed Nobody! Ha! I did it!"

The boy resurfaced for a moment. "Annabeth!" He called out.

"Get the boat over to him." I told the one in the boat with me. He pushed against the rocks and we started forwards. The other boy dove into the water again and this time he was under longer.

"Brother!" The boy with me called, he leaned over and stuck his head under the water. I pulled him back out.

"You'll drowned." I scolded him, he only shook his head.

"I am a son of Poseidon too." He said to me. "We can breath under water." As he said that the other boy resurfaced. He saw us and swam over, his brother pulled him up. "Did you find Annabeth?" He shook his head. "She is gone?"

"I..." he looked like a lost puppy in his current state. "She wont die. She has the Fleece, she can't die with that. She's not..." he was shaking.

"Get a hold of yourself!" I slapped him. He looked at me in shock. "If she's still alive then she's not going to want some prissy brat sobbing over her not-death." I told him, but my shivering didn't make it look convincing. I was freezing. "You're supposed to be a child of the big three! Build yourself a ship and gather a crew to look for her!" The idea seemed to sink in, and to me it sounded good. "We will find her."

"W-We?" He asked confused.

"I owe you my life don't I?" I rolled my eyes at him. "Aries is my father and a debt is a debt, you saved my life and I'll stick around until I save yours." I crossed my arms, more of a way to keep myself warm than to look intimidating.

"D-Don't you h-have a family to get b-back to?" He asked, I could see that he was trying to pull himself back together. I snorted.

"Please, I'm glad to be away from my mother, she's always trying to get me married and putting me in these stupid dresses." I lifted the hem of my skirt and stared at it in disgust. Then I stood up and tore the thing off of me, throwing it over the ship and stood there almost naked in front of the two boys. There was a deep blush on their faces as the black haired boy took off his jacket and handed it to me. I took it, thankful for something heavier to provide warmth. "Now get us out of this stupid sea and let's start our self a Pirate crew and find your friend!"

"Y-Yes ma'am." The black haired boy said before dipping his hand into the water, we started moving forwards. "Uh... I'm Perseus Jackson by the way, everyone calls me Percy though, and this is my brother Tyson."

"Clarisse." I responded, not looking at them. I huddled into his jacket and stared off into the ocean. I wouldn't show it to them, but there was a small smile on my lips.
