Thanks reviewers, I've been really busy at school with all these writing projects going on, anyway i do not think this is going to be a nico/Annabeth story but I had to have a reason for Percy to not fall in love with Annabeth. Anyway I know my chapters are short but at least I update at a decent pase, right? On with the story so enjoy.
Ps. I like writing in third person the best so I might do it like this a lot
Third Peron:
Let's start off by saying that if you got to choose, never choose pegusai towing a chariot to be your way of travel. For all of the children in the chariot it was torture because there was a rule about being in other god's domain that made it unsafe. Their faces were pale and sickly as if they could vomit any second, all except for Jason who was enjoying the wind that was passing through his hair, Annabeth who kept on a concentrated face, trying to distract herself from looking down, and lastly Coach Hedge was still heavily unconscious.
Percy Jackson was slightly shaking as a flock of birds passed by and Nico already gagged after he looked hundreds of feet below towards the ground. It's always worst being a child of the big three, having to go into the sky, water, or underworld always made them queasy if it's not their parents place.
Pegusai travel was really fast like one state per every 10 or so minutes, but if the gods were real why not supersonic flying horses? In about an hour and a half New York's smoggy skies came into view as well as the yells from angry cab drivers and tall skyscrapers lapping by the chariot.
The view brought back bad memories for Percy as he glanced at apartment buildings that looked like his old one. He swore that he would try everything he could to not return to New York, but the thought slipped his mind as he forgot that Olympus was housed on top of the empire state building. He looked at Jason and saw his younger brother recoiling back into the chariot, forgetting about the nice breeze he got in the fog, he couldn't stand the sight of his old home.
"Jase you okay?" Percy asked in a sorrowful tone.
"Ya, I just never thought we have to come back here." Jason replied looking up at his brother with sad eyes.
"I know I don't like it either, but you know your dad wants us to do this, so we might as well get this over with." Percy said sighing as they passed the empire state building.
"Just promise we won't go back there." Jason whimpered, referring to their old street and home.
"I swear on the Styx." Was all the older brother said in reply.
"Wait you guys have been to New York before? Why didn't you go to camp half-blood?" Annabeth asked curiously.
"Mind your own business." Percy said angrily while glaring at Annabeth at the touchy subject. Annabeth cowered back to looking at the ground and spaced herself from the son of Poseidon
Soon the scenery changed to a wood land kind of area with pine and oak trees dotting the lush green and brown ground. After a while it transformed into long island, a greeny strip of land outlined with the sandy ocean. Percy remembered the times his mom would bring him camping when he was 7 to Montauk. The beach would always be so welcoming and warm to him, but that all changed later when she married Gabe.
Taking his mind off of that Percy turned his teary eyes onto the nearing valley. At first glance it was a plain green valley with strawberry fields and a barn but if you took a better look it turned into a camp? Why would there be a camp way out here? But this wasn't a normal camp; this was Camp Half-blood, the one for demigods.
A lava infested rock climbing wall, a sword arena, stables for the winged horses, a huge big blue barn that had at least 3 stories, a dining pavilion. All of this was stuffed into a roomy area surrounded by trees. The chariot landed just outside the valley.
"We walk from here unless you guys want to land in the water." Annabeth said hopping out of the cart.
"Actually I would prefer to land-" The son of Poseidon was cut off by the son of Hades.
"No! I am not going there." He said silently shaking in fear. He would not enjoy going into both of his uncle domains in one day.
"Okay, then we walk." Percy finished.
After narrowly dodging some trees the wooden chariot halted as they got to a large pine tree, obviously the largest in the clearing by a long shot. On top of the tree was a golden sheet or something. At the base of the trunk was a miniature but deadly dragon like monster.
Percy was about to advance and charge the beast when Annabeth put her hand up.
"Don't attack. This is Peleus, he protects the tree." She said slowly scratching the beast after he recognized her.
"Okay, but why does a dragon protect a tree?"Jason asked "and why is there a giant gold bed sheet on the tree?"
Annabeth looked a little upset by the question.
"It's not a 'gold bed sheet' this is the Golden Fleece, like in the myths. And this tree is special because one of my friends was turned into this tree, but the Golden Fleece brought her back." She said and everyone looked confused by the answer.
"Long story but we'll elaborate later." Nico said.
Percy hauled Coach Hedge over his shoulder like a duffle bag and followed the others past the mysterious tree and the dragon which snarled each time the new comers passed the tree.
When they passed the tree a remarkable view of golden and green grass and plump strawberries was reviled as well many other things you would see in an average camp like cabins in the distance and wooden tables with a fire pit in the dining pavilion.
"There is a lot more but for now we need to get you all to the big house and meet Chiron." Annabeth said leading the way to the massive blue barn; the big house.
"Who is Chir-" Percy was cut off by an unfamiliar girls voice.
"Who's the newbies?" the voice said.
Percy spun around and that's when he saw her.
Okay I know its not the best ending to a chapter, and I know I haven't updated in a couple of days but school isn't nice to me.
Hoped you liked it and I got several story alerts and what not but not as many reviews so please review because it's a possibility that I'll update tomorrow…possibility
