Percy POV (Time Skip to just before the first quest)
"Oh my Gods Apollo shut up!" Yup that has to be the thing I say the most nowadays. Some people would consider accidentally stumbling on an ex-Olympian a great thing, but there are the select few that would find it to be a Hassel. I am one of those special few.
As most people know one of Apollo's domains is music and he just happens to sing the songs that annoy me the most! But that's not even the worst part. You would think that by having it as a domain he would be a good singer. Wrong. The first time he sung I swear I thought there was a dying animal nearby. But he does have his upsides. One of the being that he has some pretty great stories. Being a good who is Thousands of years old he has experienced things that some people would never imagine doing. Like one time he said he woke up after a crazy night in the middle of the ocean with nothing but a diaper on and cradling a bottle of whiskey. I think I almost died of laughter when I heard it. Another great thing he is good it is archery. Thanks to his amazing archery skills we catch all the game we need when we are in the wild. Not to mention he has also started to help me learn archery, I mean when the Jackpot, that's what I'm calling my weapon, actually lands on the bow.
But the thing he has that is both a blessing and a curse is his ability to see into the future. At times he might have a vison that will steer us clear of a monster or two, but it's only good about one fifth of the time. The other four fifths is something dangerous. Sometimes he foresees some a natural disaster that takes the lives a few mortals and demigods, when this happens he usually starts to spasm on the floor and mutter scary things in ancient Greek. But when it hits him the worst it has got to be when he foresees the death of one of his children. When this happens he usually goes into a mini-coma for about a day.
Actually it's because of one of his visions that we are on route to the Greek demigod camp, Camp Half-blood. I had tried to persuade Apollo to take us there earlier, but he would simply reply every single time with the same sentence, "it's not time yet." That was the thing about Apollo he can be a fun and cool guy to mess around with, but in the rare occasion he is serious there will never be a single thing more important in your life that his next words. He's just a mystery like that.
So that brings is to where we are now. According to Apollo we are about a mile away from this camp and monster interference will most likely happen.
"So tell me what I need to know about this Camp Sunshine." Yeah might not be the best idea to poke fun at an ex god, but hey I'm dumb like that.
"Well my young annoying apprentice, there really isn't much to know. There are children of all sorts of gods there, but the only ones that get treated with respect are the Olympian's children- and don't you give me that look you know me, I wouldn't and don't agree with it, but Zeus thinks that it's a great way to show them who's in charge." He finished with a disgusted tone. I couldn't fault that tone either. Every time he told me about Zeus I liked him less and less. He just seems like the stereotypical king from a movie.
"Yes and I can't wait to show them what us "minor" god children are capable of." I grumbled angrily thinking of the type of snobs I'm probably going to meet.
The forest we were traveling in remained peaceful. The leaves let of a smooshing sound when the wind made them meet. At the tall pine trees provided shade for all of the forest's inhabitants. So of course when I finally reach the peaceful part in the journey it has to be broken by a large roar.
Turning around to see what it was I could see a large blur coming at me at an insane speed. I barely had enough time to dodge thanks to me always being ready, however Apollo wasn't so lucky. He was listening to music on his headphones so he never heard the warning roar. By the time I caught sight of him he was lying unconscious next to a tree. Not in the mood for an annoy monster, the Minotaur to be exact, and know Apollo needed help I wanted to finish this fast. Hoping for some luck on the jackpot I hit the button and awaited its outcome. As the slots came to a stop they land on a small dagger and a Nike shoe with a lightning bolt through it. Grinning as the powers came over me I knew what that show meant. Super speed.
With the dagger materialize in my hand I zoomed over to the Minotaur who was rearing back for another charge. With me moving faster than the speed of light he never stood a chance. He was gold dust in less than a second. The downside to this ability though was that I had such low stamina. Acting fast and with whatever strength I had I scooped up Apollo and raced towards the camp.
When I finally ran passed what seemed like a magical barrier, I ran to the first building I saw. It was already night time and it seemed to be the only lit up one. I raced up the house's porch and fell with a loud thud with Apollo cushioning my fall. As darkness started to take over me I couldn't help, but feel a little smug. I mean come on that was an awesome entrance.
AN: Sorry for the long update time. Please Review and tell me what you liked and what you didn't. I still would like more suggestions on the pairings for Percy and now Apollo. I would also like to know should I do Annabeth bashing or make her their friend?
