Annabeth's POV:

There's something strange about Peter Johnson. He reminds me of Percy for some reason. Some of my memories of Percy were even coming back, his smile, his laugh, and voice. He said he knows where Percy is, Percy is in his group.

That made my heart fly. At first I thought he was Percy, I mean Peter Johnson! I saw Peter talking with Artemis, and I was…Jealous. I walked over towards Poseidon. He was looking at Peter too.

"Do you think he's Percy?" he whispered quietly.

I shrugged. "I honestly don't know Poseidon."

"He's here. In this room. And he won't talk to us…" Poseidon trailed off.

"It's okay Poseidon. He'll talk to us when he's ready. "

That's when I saw Artemis hit Peter's arm. He smiled at her and she walked away, a small smile on her face. That was weird….

Poseidon and I started to walk towards Peter.

Poseidon almost said Percy when he talked. We asked a few questions, and the answers brought tears to my eyes, but Poseidon was proud. Peter was about to walk through the portal, but he held up his hand to the others.

"I just want to say one thing to you all. All my members are demigods, and not one of you have looked at your children, let alone talk to them. Just know that, if they don't have a family here, which they don't in their minds, know that I will always be their family."

And with that, Peter Johnson walked through the portal. Their were about five hundred members with their hoods up, and I knew one of those hundreds had to be Percy. I smiled, but my smile was wiped off of my face as I saw so many of the members with tears in their eyes. They were looking back at some of the gods. I saw a little boy, about nine years old, tug on one of the people who had their hoods up. He asked something quickly, and the hooded person smiled and nodded. The person's smile looked strangely like Thalia's… I would talk to them in a second. Then the boy came running my way, but ran right past me and straight to Apollo.

"Hi, Daddy!" he said happily.

"Johnny?" he cried, and picked up his son.

Johnny laughed and hugged his dad, "I missed you, Daddy!"

"I missed you too, Little Man. I missed you too." Apollo answered quietly.

Johnny had tears in his eyes.

"I have to go with Per-Peter now daddy. I love you, and I'll see you later!" there was a special sadness in Johnny's eyes.

I wondered why. He slowly walked back to the hooded figure, and grasped their hand. The only thing I was thinking about was how Johnny almost let something slip.

Johnny's POV:

I remember how I met Percy. I was running through the woods and I ended up by a beach, I was being followed by a monster. I saw this boy staring at the ocean, he turned around when he heard my footsteps.

"Are you okay? What's wrong?" He asked immediately, taking out his sword.

"Monsters…" I muttered before collapsing.

I woke up with the same boy over me.

"What's your name? I'm Percy."

And ever since then I looked at Percy like he was my father.

See, why I was on the run was because my mom had died in a car crash. I went to this place called Camp Half-Blood because I was a half-blood, a son of Apollo to be exact. Well, at Camp Half-Blood, everybody was sad and was snapping. A boy, I guess this guy I just met, named Percy had disappeared into the sea. I didn't like what happened to Percy. Well, when I got to camp, my dad came for a visit. I asked him about Percy and he told me how he was Percy's friend, and how he wish he could have helped and made Percy stay. That was the first time I ever hugged my dad.

"It's okay daddy, it's not your fault."

He smiled at that and gave me a hug.

"Thanks, little dude."

And with that, my daddy disappeared.

Then some of my siblings and their friends started to be mean to me, when they all used to be nice. The guy that was the meanest of all was Damon, Percy's brother. I had enough of it at that point, everybody was being a bully. This didn't feel like a home, so I left. And here I was, two weeks later, with Percy.

Seeing my daddy again really made me happy. Even though Percy is kind of like a dad to me, I still really missed Apollo. And after talking to Apollo, I held Thalia's hand. Nobody admitted it, but we all knew she liked Percy. I liked the idea. She was kind of the mom in our big family. I turned back and saw a girl with blond hair and grey eyes staring at me. I remembered her, she was Annabeth. And with Annabeth staring at me and Thalia, I walked through the portal.

Thalia's POV:

Ugh that Seaweed Brain. Why did he have to be so noble and cute. Wait, what? Why am I thinking like this? I tried to ignore it. The gods and half-bloods were watching us. Annabeth was staring directly at me. Shit. Well, I ignored it and walked through the portal.

"Same old camp!" I murmured.

A few members nodded in agreement.

See, the way I came to join Percy is a pretty interesting story. Percy had left camp after the whole incident with the Bitch and the Dip-Shit, And I was going to find him. I left the Hunters of Artemis, Artemis understood, and I went looking for Percy with the help of Nico and Clarisse. They got closer to Percy after the Second Titan War and the Second Giant War, and we were one of his best friends. We found Percy after three months. At that point, he already had the biggest house I've ever seen, at least as big as the throne room on Olympus, and he had 500 members. Yeah, a lot. When he saw us we were immediately made his second-in-command (me), lieutenant (Nico), and strategist (Clarisse). Then we got more members and here we are, back at Camp Half-Blood with him to save the world, again. But my mind quickly drifted off of that topic as Percy looked at me and smiled. Oh dear gods, that boy will be the death of me!

Percy's POV:

I was back at Camp Half-Blood. Chiron, Mr. D, and Annabeth were already here.

"Hello, Chiron, long time no see." I said with a smile. I really missed Chiron.

"Hello Peter Johnson. I'm sorry but I don't exactly remember you."

I smiled wickedly.

"I will build a cabin for the Tides, if that is okay with you?"

"How exactly will you do that?" he asked, visibly confused.

"I'm not called the Lord of the Seas for nothing." I said with the smallest of smiles and walked away.

I went to the beach and started to control the water to my will. I made a house out of water, bringing walls of water up and solidifying them. The house looked pretty cool if I do say so myself. Then I was able to get some of the Hecate demigod members to make beds and a game room worthy of the gods. It looked more like a five star hotel then a cabin.

"Tides, this is our cabin."

The Tides ran inside and erupted in cheers. I smiled as they all went straight to the game room, except for Thalia, Nico, and Clarisse.

"You guys should use your real names, it's not like you left and said you would never come back. Your parents must miss you." I said with a murmur.

They just nodded. I walked down the beach to my favorite spot.

"Hi." a voice behind me said.

I turned around and saw Thalia. I smiled.

"Hey."

She sat down next to me. I got a little nervous. See over the past few years, a lot has changed. One of those things being that I started to like Thalia a bit more than I should.

I looked at the ocean.

"I hope he's proud of me finally."

"He is, Perce."

I smiled at her. I don't know why, but sometimes it was like Thalia was the only one that could cheer me up. I looked at her electric blue eyes and I couldn't help but lean in. Thalia leaned in too, to my surprise, and we kissed, softly but passionately. Then Thalia put her hand on my neck, and I put my hand on her waist. He kissed like that for a while, until we heard cheers behind us.

"FINALLY!" Johnny yelled.

I laughed, so did Thalia. But I also saw a flicker of blond hair. The person turned around and stared at me with their grey eyes. It was Annabeth. I looked at her confused, and she shook her head. Then the conch shell sounded.

All of the Tides walked to the dining pavilion, Thalia and I hand in hand. In the dining pavilion, Mr. D made another, the biggest table of them all, appear. The Tides and I sat down.

"I would like to start of this meal by welcoming the Tides, blah blah, you know what to do. Peter Johnson, do you have anything to add."

"Yes, I do actually." I said with a smile.

"Is it ok with some of the members sleep in their parents respective cabins? It is up to them of course, but you'd be surprised by how many were once at Camp Half-Blood."

Mr. D nodded and said, "Who would like to stay in their parent's cabin?"

About 10 members stood up, including Thalia, Clarisse, and Nico.

"Who are you and what cabin who is your godly parent?"

"I'm Johnny, and my daddy is Apollo." Johnny started.

I smiled, and so did Mr. D.

"Nice to see you again Johnny."

"I'm James and my mom is Hecate."

"I'm Lily and my dad is Hermes."

"I'm Danny and my dad is Hermes."

"I'm Susie and my mom is Demeter."

"I'm Lauren and my mom is Athena."

"I'm Patricia and my mom is Aphrodite."

"I'm Clarisse and my dad is Ares." Clarisse said while taking her hood down.

Everybody gasped and the Ares campers cheered. Chiron smiled.

"You can go sit with them, you know? I know you missed them." I whispered with a smile to Clarisse. She nodded and moved towards the Ares table. She was welcomed with pats on the back and hugs. Then Nico stood up.

"My name is Nico and my dad is Hades." he said while taking his hood down.

Everybody gasped, but he continued.

"Can I just sleep in my cabin for one night? I just feel like that would be right."

Mr. D and Chiron nodded. Chiron's smile was even bigger.

"I'm Thalia, and my dad is Zeus." Thalia said, her hood falling off of her head on it's own.

Everybody gasped.

"Is there any way I could do the same thing as Nico?" She asked.

Mr. D nodded again, gaping.

"Thalia!"

It was Annabeth. Thalia's gaze hardened.

"Don't you DARE come near me. Not after what you did to Percy!" Thalia spat.

Annabeth flinched, tears in her eyes, and sat down. Everything was quiet.

"Percy? Percy can you at least come out so we know you're there?" Chiron asked quietly.

I almost stood up. But I couldn't. Chiron sighed.

"Dig in."

"Blue coke." I said immediately.

All the campers looked at me funny, but hopefully.

Thankfully, all of the other Tides loved to order their favorite drink in color, and many of them loved the color blue.

"What? I like blue?" I snapped.

I ignored the campers for the rest of the night, and sat their shocked as they told stories about me.

"He was the bravest hero there ever was, and I wish I never did what I did." Annabeth ended the story. Everybody sat with tears and small smiles on their faces, and then everybody left

After the campfire, I walked with Thalia to her cabin.

"Good night, Pinecone Face." I said with a small chuckle.

"See ya, Kelp Head." She shoved my arm.

I kissed Thalia again, and we stayed like that for quite a while. Then I turned back to the cabin for the Tides. I sighed. I knew what I had to do tonight.

"Elliott! Come here please?"

A guy around my height with brown hair and blue eyes walked towards me.

"Yeah, Perce?"

"You're going to be in charge for a bit. I have a few things to do."

Elliott nodded, and I walked out. I went straight to the Big House, my hood down.

"Chiron?" I asked quietly.

He opened the door.

"Percy!" He said with a huge smile.

"Hey. Chiron. Please don't tell anybody it's me, even though everybody already guesses who I am."

"Peter Johnson. Interesting name choice." he said with a chuckle.

"I thought Mr. D would get kick out of it." I said with a laugh.

He hugged me.

"I'm glad you came to see me Percy. You should head back now, don't want anybody to get suspicious, right?"

I nodded and walked towards the beach. I waited until it was midnight, and then I walked into the Athena cabin quietly.

"Annabeth?"
