Chapter 2:

Percy's Pov
TIMESKIP (3 months after the celebration party on Olympus)

It's been 3 months since the defeat of Gaia and monster attacks reduced quite a lot. A bunch of new campers have arrived and camp is at its fullest state I've ever seen it. I was on the beach just relaxing since the calm waters of the ocean soothes me and calms me down. I layed back thinking of all the things that have happened. A new prophecy was issued by Rachel.

A child of the sea shall be betrayed

He seeks help but destroys everything in his way

The elder ones help him rise

To defeat a threat or shall he have a tragic demise

The prophecy lines were still in my head because of one line that had me confused. Or shall I say scared. Now, I'm not really the one you look for to find the meaning of the prophecy, but the first line sounded pretty clear to me. I mean there were many children of the sea but, the two most recent prophecies referred to me or a group of people with me included. So I thought there would be a high chance that the prophecy referred to me being betrayed. I mean the Fates do hate me so...

I was broken out of my thoughts when the conch horn blew loud and clear signaling danger. I rushed to the camp border where I saw a kid with sky blue electric eyes screaming 'HELP!' as he ran towards us. I uncapped the riptide and rushed toward him. There was the minotaur and three empousas chasing him. I first killed the empousas since they were the easiest while other campers brought the, I'm guessing son of Zeus behind the borders.

"Come on beaf boy! Show me how 'powerful' you are!" I said taunting at my old 'friend'. The minotaur roared in rage as he ran straight at me with his duel axes. He swung at me while I dodged both swings and disarmed both weapons with some simple flicks of my wrist. I cornered him in three trees getting ready to send him back to Tartarus but… Suddenly I was pushed aside and I lost riptide in the fall. I landed heavily on the grass while I looked up and saw the boy from before with riptide in his hand striking down on the minotaur as it disintegrated into golden dust. I quickly grabbed my sword back and went back to camp.

As me and the kid arrived back everyone was looking at him with awe in their eyes. Then everyone started bowing through their shock as a holographic lightning bolt was near the top of his head rotating. So I guess I was right before about him being a son of Zeus. He looked around confused on why everyone was bowing to him before looking above his head where everyone was looking at. He was first scared and tried to get the holographic image away from him before he realised it was harmless. He relaxed before looking at me. "Why are you not bowing to me?! I am the son of the king of the gods!" He snapped at me. Of course he's arrogant, why would I think he wasn't. Most children of Zeus are besides some of them such as Thalia.

"I only bow to people I respect and you haven't gained my respect yet." I simply replied. I could see anger building up in his eyes before it calmed down and everyone stood up again. "What's your name?" I heard Chiron ask. "My name is Mark Johnson, you old horse!" He yelled at Chiron when the trainer of heroes had done nothing wrong. I was seriously mad at this guy already. First, he acts like the best hero the world has ever seen because his father was the o so mighty king of the gods. Second, he just disrespected someone I cared for. I pushed down all the anger I had built up before just walking away from the arrogant bastard.

Time Skip: (A few days after Mark arrived at camp)

It would be a lie for me to say my life was amazing and I was happy. The past few days have been hell for me.

Flashback

I walked up to the Demeter cabin to find Katie as I wanted to talk to her about some things that should be added to camp to make it more fun. I knocked on the door and someone answered but it wasn't Katie. "Um, hi I'm looking for Katie do you know where she is?" I asked the person who answered the door. "Yeah, uhh I think she is at her garden planting stuff or something. I'm sure you know where it is." The guy said before slamming the door shut on me. 'Geez thanks…' I walked to where Katies garden was and what I found shocked me. The whole garden was flooded even the moonlace I gave Katie a few years back. I saw her crying on a bench next to the ruined garden. I walked up to her and was about to ask what's wrong but she said something that made my aura flicker a bit.

"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO MY GARDEN PERSEUS JACKSON!?" Katie yelled at me making me flinch since she never yells at anyone. "What do you mean I didn't-" I started before I was cut off by her responding in a rather mad and dangerous hint in her voice. "MARK SAID YOU FLOODED MY GARDEN OVERNIGHT!" She screamed at me with tears flowing like a waterfall down her cheeks. "I didn't do anything I swear!" I said as she just told me to go away since she didn't want to hear of my sorry excuses.

The next people I went to were the stolls and pretty much everything repeated itself with the twins screaming and yelling at me because I 'supposedly' ruined a huge prank they have been planning for months because they believed what Mark had told them about me destroying and ruining their things.

End of Flashback

Today well, pretty much the whole camp has turned against me. Everyone hates me: the Stolls, Katie, Jake, Malcom, Will, Drew, and Annabeth, well except Annabeth kinda already hated me before Mark came so that wouldn't count. Surprisingly the only two people that stuck with me were Clarrisse and Chris. They were the only two friends from Camp Half-Blood I had right now. I decided to leave camp and go check on my Mom since I haven't seen her in a while and pretty much nobody wants me here anyways.

Third Person (somewhere in the universe)

"Mother, why have you called this meeting?" Nyx asked. "I have called the council because of the rising of my brother, Order." The primordial council was shocked. They all have heard of Chaos' brother but didn't expect him to rise this early since he was last defeated. The council just sat in their thrones in shock for a couple of minutes before the creator of the universe broke the silence. "Don't worry, we will have to fight in the war but I have an idea."

"Care to explain, mother?" Gaia asked curiously. "We will need to make one person our champion. I think I have the person in mind for this job. Let me go check on him."

Percy POV

As I was walking toward the border of the camp I was suddenly stopped by a flash of light and Hermes was in front of me. "Zeus demands your presence in the throne room." He said before he helped my shoulder and flashed us into the throne room. "PERCY JACKSON! YOU ARE ACCUSED OF TREASON AGAINST THE GODS! WHAT DO YOU PLEAD!?" Zeus shouted at me. I was surprised for sure. I looked at my Dad and he just had a disapproving look on his face. "I PLEAD INNOCENT OF COURSE, WHAT'S YOUR EVIDENCE AGAINST ME?!" I screamed back at him in shock. "Witness please come forward." My first reaction in my brain was 'WTF'. There he was. The camper that turned my life upside down and no was trying to kill me. "Mark, please explain why the sea scum is accused of treason."

"Father I found this in his cabin and it showed the weak points of camp. So I know he was passing information to the enemy on where to attack camp from." He accused me. "Those were the sheets I showed Chiron on where they should update the defence!" I tried to defend myself but Zeus wouldn't listen. "PERSUES JACKSON YOU WILL BE SENTENCED TO DEATH FOR TREASON AGAINST THE GODS '' He boomed at me before he held his hand out and his master bolt appeared. He hurled it at me. But before I got hit, I felt someone teleport me away and I appeared in front of a different council. The Primordial Council.
