Coleen McLane POV
Hello. My name is Colleen McLane. I am a teacher here at Goode High School. My subject is Greek. Most of the people I teach are little idiots! Well, except for two. That is Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase. They are amazing at every aspect in Greek. As much as I hate to admit it, they are better than me. And I am a demigod daughter of Aphrodite. Which is the reason why monsters don't attack me. Aphrodite is normally not seen as a threat. I have a theory that Percy and Annabeth are demigods as well. Thanks to mom, I think that they are a couple but I am not sure.
One day in class we were doing a class game. I picked two contestants, one was a boy and one was a girl. The girl needed to name all the goddesses they could and state what they rule over. The boy did the same thing, but with gods. The class was a disaster until I came to the last pair. Percy and Annabeth.
Percy started listing, "Poseidon God of the Sea, and Earthquakes. Zeus God of the Sky. Hades God of the Underworld. Apollo God of the Sun, Music and Poetry. Hermes God of Messengers, Thieves, Travelers and er, other things. Dionysus God of Wine. Hephaestus God of the Forges. Ares God of War. Um ya."
Annabeth smirked and said, "Hera Goddess of Marriage. Athena Goddess of Wisdom. Aphrodite Goddess of Love and Beauty. Hestia, the hearth. Demeter, harvest. Artemis, Goddess of the Hunt. Persephone, Queen of the Underworld. Nemesis, Goddess of revenge. Nyx, Goddess of Night. Hemera, Goddess of Day. Gaea, the Earth Goddess. Nike, Goddess of Victory. Hebe, Goddess of Youth. Hecate, Patron of Magic. Iris, Goddess of Rainbows. I could go on, but I am boring everyone to Hades, so I will um stop."
The class was gawking at Annabeth, and Percy muttered, "Thats my Wise Girl." I smiled, "No offence Percy, but Annabeth definitely wins this round." Percy rolled his eyes and mumbled, "She always wins. Especially at Camp. There she goes on for two whole hours. Talk about a waste of time." I don't think anyone else heard that, but camp? Might mean Camp Half-Blood, but who knows?
The next day we were learning about Olympus. I haven't been there before. Only the greatest heroes have. I then heard Percy talking in Ancient Greek, "Hey Wise Girl, remember when we were up there? It is better now that you designed it." Annabeth blushed with pleasure and muttered back, "Shut up Seaweed Brain, someone can hear you!" Percy snorted then replied, "Not that they would know what we were saying!" Annabeth rolled her eyes and went back to her book.
Okay, they were demigods. I just needed to get them to confess. Well I have charmspeak, so why not? "Annabeth, Percy? Could I see you in the hall for awhile?" They looked warily at each other. Percy reached into his pocket and pulled out a pen. Annabeth reached into her pocket and kept her hand there.
I ushered them out of the classroom and said in Ancient Greek, "Are you guys demigods? I am a Daughter of Aphrodite. Colleen McLane." Annabeth's eyes lit up in recognition, "Oh hi. Remember me? Annabeth Chase, that girl you gave Greek lessons to when you were still at Camp?" Suddenly everything clicked,she was Annabeth. The girl I had tutored long ago. I had recieved a message from Chiron, telling me she had redesigned Olympus and fallen into Tartarus, but I pushed the message into the back of my mind. That was way too horrendous for me to imagine.
Percy, Percy, where have I heard that name? Oh right Perseus Jackson! Two time savior of Olympus along with Annabeth. Oh. Wow. I was shocked, Annabeth broke my silence my asking politely, "Uh , can we go back?" I was thrown back into the present and nodded.
The next day we were doing a lesson on Tartarus. I excused Percy and Annabeth, seeing as they probably didn't want to recount the memories. I told them to go pick up garbage, but since our school was spotless, they had freedom. Other people weren't happy, but I just glared and used charmspeak so they backed off. The pluses of being and Aphrodite girl. After I told them the myths of Tartarus the whole class was pale. Annabeth came in laughing while dragging Percy. Annabeth had written the lesson. She made it horrifying. But Annabeth told me that it wasn't even half of it! Well the mortals now know some things about Tartarus.
A year later I received the wedding invitation to Percabeth's wedding. My inner Aphrodite began squealing. As I walked into the new Camp Half-Blood, that Annabeth designed of course, I was shell shocked. Aphrodite certainly got to work! I was probably the only Aphrodite girl besides Piper, who hasn't broke anyones heart. As I walked to my seat. I saw people rushing about. It was so sweet. As Annabeth and Percy exchanged their vows. I was in tears. Luckily I wasn't the only one.
At Percy's 20th Birthday Party, Annabeth's gift to him was an led to Percy running around the Camp screaming, "I'M GONNA BE A DAD! YESSSSS!" I started jumping up and down with the rest of the Aphrodite. Even Aphrodite herself poofed over to congratulate the soon to be parents.
After nine months Luke Beckendorf Jackson was born, along with his twin, Silena Bianca Jackson. The names were chosen in memory of lost friends. Although I did notice Nico beaming at Silena's name. I hoped they were all in Elysium.
Me: Hey Nico, do the Disclaimer!
Nico: No, I am to busy summoning dead guys!
Me: Then I will make Hades take away your powers!
Nico: You can't do that. You don't own Percy Jackson !
Me: Say that again?
Nico: *Rolls eyes. TheEpiclyAmazingDaughterofZeus doesn't own PJO!
Me: *sobs
