Chapter 1: Forbidden Fate

Present Time

March 21, 2019

Goode High School

Percy POV

"Good afternoon class" our Latin teacher sitting in a wheelchair happily greeted us.

Ugh! Latin history. The subject I loathe the most.

Why?

Because it's way too boring.

"Good afternoon sir" my classmates greeted him with no energy.

See? Even my classmates agree with me.

I swear if I have the chance to save the President in one of my missions, I'll tell him to get rid of Latin classes as a subject!

Afterall, why should we talk about something, that we all know, are already in the past and are not even real?

The stupid, super old, Latin teacher are giving us another boorrriiinnggg lecture.

"Now class, who among you here, can tell me who are the 12 Olympians?"

Tsk. Who cares about those 12 Olympians... they do not even exist.

Why should we talk about things that is not even real?

When will this class ends?

I want to receive a mission.

You're probably wondering why I was talking about missions, right?

Well, I'm a super, secret agent of SEA Secret Agent with 100% success rate.

You're also thinking why I was here in school if I was an secret agent right?

Well, being a student serves as my undercover and I was forced to stay here by my very good Father dearest.

By the way, I am Perseus Orion Jackson the son of Zale Caspian Jackson. I'm 20 years old, taking the course of Business Administration. Heir to the Poseidon Empire . Most of our businesses though are cruise, boats, ships, submarines. We also have restaurants, 5 Star-hotels, resorts, and etc.

"Mr. Jackson, are you listening?" said Mr. Bruno or was it Brown, nah forgot about it. I rolled my eyes and began to sleep.

"Mr. Jackson!" Mr. I forgot his name yelled at me. He's probably losing his patience.

"What?" I raised his head and stared at him with my death stare.

Mr. I forgot the name, clenched his fist and began to take a breathe in and out, "Please stand"

Tsk. Fine I'll follow you. I stood up.

"Can you tell me, who is Artemis?" questioned Mr. I dunno.

All my classmates turned to look at me.

"Whoa... Perseus is way to handsome" I heard some of the girls whispering.

"He looks so handsome, even if he won't smile" Some of the girls are giggling.

"Even if he is cold, still I want to have his babies" The cheerleaders of the back said to each other

I smirked.

"Kyahhh!!! He's too handsome" the girls in the back said.

"I want to be his wife" exclaimed another girl.

"Dream on girl... he won't marry you" her friend countered.

"He will... you'll see" the girl countered.

"SILENCE!" the teacher thundered.

Tsk. This is the reason why I hate women. They're too noisy.

I ignored him and turned my attention to the field.

"Perseus!" He glared at me. I think he lost his patience.

I turned to look at him.

"You are not going to sit down, unless you're able to answer my question" he declared

I boredly look at him and after a few moments, I answered, "I don't know who she is and besides why should I bother to know about her, if she doesn't even exist?"

He looks shocked that I managed to answer him harshly and then his look was replace with disappointment. He looks like he's expecting me to know the goddess.

He sighed, "Mr. Jackson, you may sit down"

I sat down.

He shook his head and he murmured, "With your attitude, I don't think... fate ".

What was that? What did he mean?

He continued, "Artemis is the goddess of the hunt, archery, childbirth, chastity and the moon"

He look at me when he said the last part, it's like he's trying to see some kind of reaction from me.

He look away and he continued, "She's also the protector of maidens"

A boy with glasses raised his hand, "Sir, isn't she also a virgin goddess?" his face was grinning like he know something that the rest of us doesn't know.

Well, except me because I totally do not know her.

Mr. I dunno the name's face brightened, I think he was finally glad that someone actually knows.

"Yes, you're right Artemis is a virgin goddess"

Another mythology nerd raise her hand, "Sir, if she is a virgin goddess, why does she have a relationship with Orion?"

Instead of facing the nerd, he turned to look at me as he spoke, "They did not actually have a relationship all they have is friendship"

I don't kow what's gotten into me but I actually asked him, "But she did have feelings for him right?"

I don't know where did that question came from, because hearing the name Artemis is my first time.

Mr. I dunno's face lit up, "Some said she had no feelings for him while others said she had"

I think he was watching my reaction. Now I'm really confused, why does he react like that?

A nerd raised his hand, "Sir, if they are friends why do they say that Artemis killed him?"

My eyebrow raised. She killed him?

Now Mr. Latin teacher is seriously staring at me, "Yes, some myths say that she killed him for defiling her huntress, some say she was tricked into killing him, some say he was killed by a scorpion sent by Gaea and some say he was killed by Artemis' brother" .

He's watching my reaction like he's expecting me to explode in anger.

I feel really creeped out by his stare.

I stared at him. He broke his gaze and continued, "Anyway, who here knows the god Apollo?"

At the mentioned of his name, I tensed. Mr. I dunno the name saw my reaction.

Once again, he look at me. What's with him? Why do he always look at me like that?

Does he like me?

I look away and look at my classmates.

Many girls raised their hands. Looks like they are interested in this god.

Tsk.

He pointed to a girl, "Alysia, who is he?"

Alysia answered, "He is the god of the sun and music and the twin brother to Artemis".

My body tensed up even more.

What's wrong with me?

Another girl added, "He is also known as the god of handsomeness" she said dreamily.

'Handsomeness?' How can she say that? She does not even see his face much less met him! So how can she tell?!

My mouth talks faster than I could think, "He's a womanizer"

My eyes widened, seriously what's wrong with me? How can I feel hatred to a person that does not even exist?!

Everyone turned to look at me.

"Woah! Is what I heard jealousy? That girl is so lucky... she made our cold prince speak"

"Hey bro, are you okay? You're talkative today." A man with blond hair with a scar on lip touched my shoulder.

He's Jason Grace my bestfriend. He is the son of Skyler Grace and Hera Grace. Heir to the Sky Group of Companies. Their business covers planes and other air transports.

I looked at him and I slowly shrugged off his hands, "I'm fine"

I looked towards the window and saw the empty sports field.

"Sorry guys, you may continue" a man with curly black hair, dark brown eyes, a cheerful smile. He flashed them which was according to him, his most charming smile. (sarcasm)

He's Leo one of my gang. He's second son of Fabricio Valdez and Esperanza Valdez. Younger brother to Charles Valdez. The second heir to the Vulcan International. It is a manufacturing company. Their company covers the manufacturing of weapons, gadgets and etc.

One of the bisexuals shouted, "Kyahhh!!! Fafa Leo is so handsome!"

"You're wrong beshy... Fafa Perseus is the most handsome" argued the friend of the bisexual.

"No! it's Prince Charming Jason is the more handsome and Cassanova Prince Leo" stated another.

"But! We can agree that Cold Prince Perseus is the most handsome among them"

"SILENCE!" Mr. Brown shouted.

I rolled my eyes. I turned my sight back to the sports field.

My eyes widened, I can't believe this! I saw a beautiful woman... knocking an arrow in her bow and released it towards...

me?...

I immediately closed my eyes.

Waiting for the impact, for the pain. But no pain came.

When I opened my eyes, the woman was gone and there was no arrow coming towards me.

Was that...

...real?

A sigh of relief escape my lips.

Okay... okay... Percy... you're just hallucinating... nothing to worry about... calm down...I'm just probably tired.

I closed my eyes and went to sleep.

"Mr. Jackson... Mr. Jackson..."

"Bro... bro... hey wake up" I felt my body shaking. I groggily opened my eyes and turned to look at Jason. But instead of Jason... I saw Mr. Latin.

"Mr. Jackson... I can't believe that you of all people fell asleep during my class. It is imperative that you listen to my discussion because this information can save your life" Mr. Latin scold me.

I stared at him with my death stare... but it seems he was not affected. He continued to stare at me. I sighed, I think I sighed many times today.

With my most cold voice, "What do you want? I fell asleep because your class is boring"

His eyes widened.

"Percy!" exclaimed Jason.

I looked back to Mr. Browner, he took a deep breath, "I don't know what to do with you Percy but you will be doing a group project all on your own"

"What?" I growled.

"Repeat... what you... said"

Mr. Browner, was that the name? Anyway he smirked, "You... are..." his face went closer to me, "doing a project... all...on... your... own"

I sniggered at him, "Try me...old man, if you want to keep this job"

To my shocked, he talked back, "Sure... tell your father about this... let's see if your father will take your side, a son who does nothing good or a teacher... who took his son's interest in mind"

Mr. Brownish walked away.

Tsk. Stupid old men. You'll rue the day you made me an enemy.

Bzzt... Bzzt... Bzzt... Bzzt...

I noticed my phone vibrating so I got my phone out of my pocket.

The phone was and iPhone 11 Pro Max with a pure black color. I look at the screen and saw my father Caspian calling me.

I answered the phone, "..."

"Perseus"

"..."

I heard my father sighed, "Come home... let's have dinner together"

"K" I ended the call.

I slung my backpack on my back and went home.

I walked away but someone grabbed my shoulder.

"Hey Percy... where are you going? I thought we are going to have dinner together" Jason's eyebrows furrowed.

I stared at him as I continue to walk away.

"What's with him?" I heard Jason asked a man with a messy hair and black eyes, wearing black clothing.

He's Nico Di Angelo. The second child of Hyde Di Angelo and Maria Di Angelo, brother to Bianca and Hazel Di Angelo. He's the air to the Underworld Company. Their business covers mining, banks, funeral homes and 5 star hotels in the country. My father and Uncle Skyler are bestfriends with his father.

"He's always like that... ignore him" Nico replied.

They could never understand.

I got inside my car, a black with a strip of silver, Bugatti Veyron Super Sport and started the engine and drove fast as I can.

10 minutes later...

I arrived in our modern, contemporary styled mansion.

I got out of the car as many of my personal male servants line up to welcome me.

Butler John my personal butler, greeted me, "Welcome home, young master"

His greetings was followed by my personal male servants, "Greetings, young master"

"Where's my father?" I asked.

"He's in the living room together with madam" Butler John, answered

"Park the car in the garage" I tossed him the key as I walked to the door.

At the corner of my eye, I saw Butler John bowed his head, "Yes, young master".

The guard of the door to the living room, opened the door as he greeted me, "Welcome home, young master, master and madam is expecting your arrival"

I gave him a nod as the door opened.

I saw my father kissing with his wh*r*. My expression became blank. I definitely saw this coming. I don't think that they notice me yet.

I cleared my throat.

They immediately disentangle themselves from each other.

"Ahem... ahem... I see that you're home Percy. Welcome home" my father smiled awkwardly.

"..." I went upstairs and inside my room.

"Percy wait!" My father exclaimed.

I paused and I turned to face him, "..."

"We need to talk in my office now" my father's face looks serious as he went inside his office.

I followed him.

"Mr. Brunner sent me your grades and its not doing well. According to him, you always disobey him"

I rolled my eyes. Tsk... That stupid old man complained to my father.

His eyes narrowed, "Is that how I raised you, Perseus?"

My face hardened, "You know the answer... Father."

I turned back and was about to take a step, "Perseus... If you're not going to fix your attitude... I will take away everything that I've given to you... and you are not allowed to participate any of the missions that I've given to your team"

I face him, glared at him and clenched my jaw.

My father smirked at me, "Thought so... I'm going to give you a chance. I talked to Mr. Brunner, he said that he will let you pass if you pass his project with a perfect rating A, about the 12 Olympians. Specifically, about the goddess...

...Artemis"

My eyebrows rose, It's her? Why it's her? Everyone knows I hate women.

My pupils flared, "Ask him to change my topic. I don't like researching about women"

My father smirked, "Why? It's just a fictional woman. No need to get angry"

My mouth twitched.

My father sighed, "I asked Mr. Brunner to change your topic but he insisted that you should have your research about this goddess"

I resigned in defeat, "Fine, it's just an imaginary women. It's not like I'm going to face her and talk to her or anything"

"Oh Perseus, your project must be submitted tomorrow from now"

"K"

I walked away and inside my room. I turned the tv.

"There will be a blood moon lunar eclipse on this coming March 25, 2019." Five days from now huh?

"According to NASA, the eclipse begins 12:07 am, it's mid-eclipse at 1:10 am and the eclipse ends at 2:12 am. The blood moon lunar eclipse have not happen for many millenia, so we are very lucky that we are able to see the beauty of the blood lunar eclipse in our lifetime." Said the reporter.

Bzzt... Bzzt... Bzzt... Bzzt...

I answered my phone. I look at the caller in the screen. It's Leo.

I answered the phone, "..."

"Percy... the gang was planning to do the project together, so can you join us?"

I thought for a moment. If I join them, maybe they could help me about this.

"K"

"Cool. We'll see you there at the Goode library"

"K"

"Good--" I ended the call.

I went to the underground garage. I look around, which car should I use I use today?

1. Rolls Royce Sweptail

2. Mercedes Benz Maybach Exelero

3. Bugatti Divo

4. Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita

5. Lamborghini Veneno

Let choose... aha! The Rolls Royce Sweptail.

I went inside of the Rolls Royce Sweptail and started the engine and drove going to the Goode Library.

10 minutes later...

I saw Piper, Frank, Hazel, Leo, Thalia, Reyna, Jason and Nico except Annabeth the gang was waiting for me.

"What took you so long?" asked Piper, Jason's girlfriend.

I walked past her.

I saw an old woman like very old, weaving a thread, she is probably the librarian here.

I approached the librarian, "Do you have any books about the 12 Olympians?"

"What?!" the old woman yelled.

I made my voice louder, "Do... you... have ... any books ...about the ...12... Olympians?!"

"Twelve ... Olym...pians?!" I covered my ears. God that was loud.

"Yes!" the some of the readers look at us for a few moments and some get back on their reading while others glared at me and only me.

"Oh! It's on the second floor!"

"Okay!"

God, this is embarassing.

"Shhh..." The readers glared at me while others put a finger on their mouth.

Tsk.

I ignored them and went to the second floor. I looked around for someone who can help me find the book, an assistant of the librarian maybe. The second floor has only few people. It seems that most people are in the first floor.

I explored each of the shelves for any information about the Olympians. But I found none.

I was about to give up when I saw a book titled, "The 12 Olympians".

I grabbed the book and skim through the page until I saw the information about the goddess Artemis.

I read the information.

Artemis is the daughter of the Zeus the King of the gods and Leto the titan of Motherhood. She is the Olympian goddess of the hunt, chastity, wildlife, archery, and the moon. She was the protector of young girls. She is worshipped as one of the primary goddesses of childbirth and midwifery along with Eileithyia.

And the information ends there.

I sighed, with this information, I will never get A. I put the book back to the shelves.

If you're wondering why should I bother to come in a library than research the information through the internet?

It's because I believe that the book is more reliable than the internet because have been reviewed before publishing and the information of books stays for a long period of time. There are some informations that can't be found in the internet but can be found in books.

I walked and touched the edges of the books savoring its smell but there are no books about the goddess Artemis.

I look at the last shelf. The last shelf has less lighting compared to the rest.

I was not planning on going there but as I stared at it closer. I felt like there was some force pulling me in.

I went to the dark, last, shelf and I saw the title...

"The Adventures of Artemis"

I read the book.

The Birth of Artemis

"After Artemis was born, she saw the pain her mother Leto was feeling. So she immediately went to help her mother deliver her younger twin, Apollo."

I smiled, this woman is quite kind. I scanned the next pages.

The Crowning of Artemis.

The Vow of Artemis to become a virgin goddess.

The Establishment of the Hunt.

This is definitely the information I need.

I was about to walk away when I saw in the corner of my eyes, a silver book.

I get the book and look at its cover it's indeed silver. It's weird considering long ago, there are no authors who colored their book's cover page with silver.

I look at the rest of the book in this shelves, the color of their cover page is either, brown or black but the one I'm holding right now is definitely silver. The book looks old and covered in dust.

It was entitled...

..."Forbidden Fate"

What a cliche title.

I examine the book carefully. It was obvious that this book have not been touched for millenia.

I opened the book and saw various words that I don't understand but I know that they're written in greek...

"I istoría mas tha xanagrafeí gia défteri forá tin iméra pou to fengári metatrépei to aíma kai gínetai skiá"

I don't speak greek much less understand but somehow, I understood the words written was...

"Our story will be rewritten for the second time on the day the moon turns blood and becomes a shadow"
