A.N. hey guys real quick just wanted to get your opinions for the next chapter, originally i was going to input a stamina system with an actual stamina bar, actually never done before folks trust me i checked, but decided that due to the description i gave gamers body and what it already does i just through that idea out the window and went with assassins creeds approach UNLIMITED STAMINA but since i'm coming up on the training arc soon i wanted to get my readers opinions since this story is for you guys to enjoy. So stamina bar or unlimited stamina? If need be i can start a poll.
Also should i put limits on what he can store in his inventory that goes up as he levels? I.e. lvl:1-10=10 slots lvl:11-20=20 slots ect? Or just unlimited inventory?

After the field trip was over the class went back to Yancy, and life preceded as normal for percy until friday afternoon when just as his last class of the day wrapped up, told him to goto Mr. Brunner's room for his parent teacher conference. Percy nodded his head in acknowledgement and went there straight away excited to see his mother again after months without contact.
As soon as percy was through the door he was wrapped up in hug from his mother. "Oh percy i'm so glad your safe chiron told me about what happened, and i'm so sorry i couldn't have been here sooner" sally almost cried into the top of percy head as she suffocated the air out of his lungs in a hug only a mother could give. "And if you ever do something that stupid again i'm going to ground you until the inevitable heat death of the planet"
"Yes mom, i missed you mom" percy said hugging his mother back before they separated. "Since chiron already told you i guess you known that i known what i am now right?" percy fumbled out his question not really making any sense even to himself.
"Yes chiron filled me in on all the details we were just figuring out what to do before you got here" she said before leading over to a small table with two chairs and wheelchair bound centaur sat around it.
Chiron greeted him quickly as they sat down before he sighed leaned forward a bit and stared into Percy's eyes with that thousands of years old gaze of his before asking "So perseus, you know that it is not safe here correct?" percy nodded and chiron continued "and Grover has told you about camp half-blood by now yes?" again percy nodded remembering back to the night they got back from the field trip when he grilled his dorm mate for information about the camp, the gods, monsters, ect. "Good then you understand the situation and the danger your in? Then you must choose, you can risk your life and try to finish up the year at yancy or you can leave now and i can have argus come take us to camp so you can begin your training" chiron stated like there was even a choice to begin with.
"Huh so i can either stay here and risk my life and do homework, or i can goto a camp full of people like me...hmm yeah hard choice there teach" percy snarked with a roll of his eyes before his mother gave him a look and he knew he was in trouble.
"Don't be rude percy he was just trying to give you a choice" sally reprimanded him while chiron chuckled lightly.
"It's fine sally, and perseus our ride will be here within the hour so i suggest you pack quickly" he said dismissing percy as he turned to sally and the two began comparing notes and having an actual parent teacher conference. Percy left quickly before his mom heard about all the fights he got into this year.
After getting packed percy and grover met chiron and sally down at the visitors parking area, there waiting for them was a tall blonde man in a suit and his skin was absolutely infested with eyes, the name above his head said he is called argus and he was level 80, to high for him to observe. Argus nodded his head at percy as he approached and percy did the same so as not to be rude, before turning to chiron whos wheelchair bound self was already in the back of the van. Patiently waiting for them, his mother was off to the side a little teary eyed.
Percy quickly walked up to his mom and hugged her one last time before heading off to camp "promise me you'll come home percy" she whispered in his ear, it was heartwarming really something right out of a movie so of course his power had to interrupt it with a loud 'Ping'.
{Quest Started! [A Promise To Keep]:Make your mother a promise to come home soon.
[Objectives]
Learn to protect yourself[]
Go home[]
[Rewards]:get to see your mother again
1000Xp
[Failure]:Moms depressed, you die, bad stuff

Sighing quietly percy closed the window and promised his mom he would be home soon, he then got into the van and head off to camp his mom wishing him luck and waving them off.
The drive was relatively short with most midday traffic having cleared up when the van finally pulled over they were somewhere on long island sound, chiron rolled himself out of the van, percy and grover followed suit. Percy watched in awe as chirons body slowly grew out of his wheelchair leaving his legs behind in exchange for an entire horses body. Chiron shook out each of his four legs before he folded up his chair picking it up he motioned for percy to follow "Come perseus we are not safe yet" he said as he began walking up a hill that was crowned by a large tree. As they passed by it percy stopped when he noticed something strange.
{Thalia Grace LVL:35}
{'Child of Sacrifice' 'Demigod' 'Protection of Zeus'}
Percy was confused by it but he remembered what grover told him about a demigod who was turned into a tree before they died. They soon arrived at a large three story blue house percy remembered grover saying it was called the big house and boy was the name not a joke. When they got to the porch percy saw some slightly chubby guy with big red nose and a trashy hawaiian shirt on 'he looks like a grown up cherub from a trailer park' percy thought before looking at his name and level.
{Dionysus LVL:485}
{'God of Wine' 'The Mad God'}
Percy was absolutely shocked 'that's a god? Why is he so…..lame?' he thought before hearing a cough come from dionysus' direction. Percy looked into his baleful purple eyes and felt...nothing really and that seemed to shock dionysus something fierce before he cough again in embarcement and spoke up "so i take it your this Peter Johnson i've heard about from Chiron, huh?" he questioned and continued on not even waiting for a response "another brat will be along to show you around the prison, ehrm camp shortly, till then this is what you need to known im Mr.D your director and this is camp half blood enjoy your short miserable stay" he huffed out before turning to grover "go fetch Annie Bell from Athena's group of brats"
Grover started at this back going ramrod straight like someone shoved a broom up his ass "Y-y-yes sir" he almost saluted before he took off.
Chiron sat his chair down and climbed back in and took a deck of playing cards out of his left inside coat pocket "care for a game of pinochle Dionysus?" chiron asked as rolled up to what was obviously his spot at the table, as it had no chair.
"Of course i'm always up for one of the greatest games mankind has ever made" he said derisively and started shuffling the cards after Chiron handed him them. He looked over at percy who was quietly watching from his spot along the railing and snorted. "So do we known whos twerp he is?"
Chiron let out a sigh "he is unclaimed but i have a strong suspicion on who his father might be" he said his eyes flicking towards the sea unbeknownst to percy. " i believe him to be a new candidate for Delphi's poem" Chiron told Mr.D cryptically.
Mr.D was about to respond when two sets of footsteps joined the little group " ah Annie Bell show peter here around and get him set up in cabin 11 by the end of the day" he said quickly dismissing the two demigods and satyr.
The blonde girl percy now knew beyond a doubt was not named Annie Bell as her face scrunched up at the name he turned to her and stuck his hand out "names Percy Jackson what's yours?" he said completely ignoring Mr.D's shooing motions.
She gave him a small cute chuckle at that "it's annabeth, nice to meet you." she said shaking his hand and following it up quickly with "come on let's show you around camp before Mr. D turns you into a dolphin or something. She turned around and started a light jog into the heart of the camp.
A.N. Gah sorry if this was a little late at night for you i just couldn't get over the writers block on this chapter so sorry if it doesn't turn out good guys.
