Percy's POV:

Percy was attacking the target dummies with so much agility and strength, he looked like a black and orange blur. He felt like his life just ended when Annabeth broke up with him and when his poor mother and step-father died in a fire that was started in their apartment building. It killed 10 people and left 20 injured. Even though many terrible things happened in his life, there was still hope. Leo, his "dead" friend returned to Camp Halfblood with Calypso. They had a party for Leo's arrival and it lasted for 2 days! That wasn't as long as the party they had with the Romans when the Giant Wars ended a month ago. Percy shuddered as he attacked another dummy. His memories of the war weren't very comforting, but at least, he had Annabeth by his side throughout the entire lousy trip from Camp Halfblood to Camp Jupiter, to Greece, and a side tour to Tartarus. Percy didn't know what happened between them that made her give up on him, but he would do anything, anything to gain her love again.

Suddenly, a camper that he never met before ran up to him, out of breath and it seems like he was running for his life. "Chi-Chiron needs you in the Big House now." the messenger gasped, leaning over, trying to catch his breath, but the tone of his voice made Percy sure that he has to go, whether he liked it or not.

Once Percy got to the Big House, he noticed something was different in the air. The air around him was tense like someone was about to get caught doing something they shouldn't be doing like pranking ( the Stolls ) or beating young kids up (Ares Cabin). When he got in the Meeting room, where the cabins used to go there to discuss the war or something major. However, ever since he and the other 6 defeated Gaea, not a lot of monster attacks occurred, or at least not as much as they used to.

In the room, there were already eight people inside, waiting for him. They were Jason, son of Jupiter, Piper, daughter of Aphrodite, Leo, son of Hephaestus, Annabeth, Hazel, daughter of Pluto, Frank, son of Mars, Poseidon, and Chiron. They all looked up with a strange mix of emotions showing on their faces, worry, fear, sadness, anger, and is that pity? Percy shook his head, clearing his mind from all of this negative thoughts, but there was a nagging behind his mind. Why is everybody acting so weird?

Percy decided to open up, "Hey guys! What's up? Is there another prophecy about me or something?" he said, ignoring the constant nagging behind his head.

"Something like that. Lord Poseidon was telling us about the strange... um.. monster activity! Yeah, and he wants us to investigate it. So you up for a trip to the Pit of Damnation!?" Leo said with a weird grin on his face. Percy thought that he saw some sadness in the smile, but he decided that it must be his ADHD.

"Of course! I am so bored that I felt like my brain was shut down. Is there a signup sheet, cause I'm going!"

Poseidon smiled a rather painful looking smile, but Percy brushed it aside. 'Maybe it's the monster sighting that got him worried' Percy thought as there was a suddenly there was a bright flash, making him shut his eyes as spots danced before his eyes. When the flash disappeared, Percy opened his eyes and stared at the huge sinkhole the size of a football stadium. 'How strange, as he thought to himself, that there are no monsters in sight. And gods aren't wrong when it comes to monsters. Unless…
