3rd Person

One Week Later

The demigods were very energetic. Percy had started training the five right away. Dawn and Matt were very shy and timid, but they will change, get used to this life, become more confident. The ones that showed the most potential were Adam and Scott.

Scott already showed amazing duel wielding skills. He kept his calm, he was precise and calculating. Adam on the other hand had none of that. He was much stronger and faster then Scott, but he was rash and uncoordinated, if anything Adam acted like more like a child of Ares.

Now out of the other three, Derek was the most promising. He showed initiation and worked the hardest out of everyone, even Adam and Scott, like he had something to prove. But he wasn't anywhere close to the skills of Adam or Scott. He didn't have the natural skill of Scott, or the strength and speed of Adam.

And the last two, Matt and Dawn didn't have any of that. They were just there because they were forced. Matt's brother forced him here/he just followed his brother everyday he went to practice. And of course Dawn followed everywhere Derek went, even when they weren't at practicing Dawn was right behind him, hiding from everyone, even her siblings.

Since they started practicing Percy has stayed with his same schedule just tweaking it a little to adjust his time helping the demigods. But most of the training was done alone, using the pointers Percy gave them. For Matt and Dawn it was just daily practice and dueling as well as becoming more confident and outgoing, to break out of their shell. But that would happen more over time, as they got older, so for now those two could only train, as they were already incredible smart. Since the two were so shy they spent most of their time studying, not needing to train since they both had someone to protect them.

He gave Matt pointers with his sword, but couldn't do much with Dawn, since Percy hasn't even trained with those weapons. He was currently practicing with battle axes and was a master with a couple of weapons, but he hasn't had the time to start practicing with daggers and different lengths of swords.

Now onto Derek's training. Derek was told to train his body, he gave him a schedule to follow, of what to do to get stronger and faster and what he should be eating. In no time Derek will be growing, he'd start getting growth spurts and he'll be an amazing warrior. He was also supposed to continue his daily studying and sparing, with the pointers given to him from Percy.

Adam was by far the hardest to train. He had the worst ADHD he has ever seen. Adam was always moving, always wanted to move, to fight, to train. So when Percy told him that his training would involve him sitting down and doing basically nothing, he wasn't happy.

Out of everyone he had the most studying to do. Percy gave him multiple books to read to help his skills and to hone his emotions. Like the others he had to keep doing his daily studying and training, but Percy add more things to study and techniques and forms to practice.

And then there was Scott, by far the strongest out of all of them. He had the smarts and skills. He didn't have the strength or speed of Adam, but his physical performance was not average, it just that Adam had a very unnormal amount of speed and strength. Adam was out running children of Hermes that were years older than him and beating children of Ares in wrestling matches and arm wrestles like it was nothing. People thought he was the new Heracles.

Percy took it on himself to train Scott more personally. He say his potential and he needed a sparring partner. So he showed Scott advanced training and gave him things to study that would greatly help him, things that were beyond what the other four could handle at the moment, and many other campers only wish to be capable of. Things he wouldn't have found on his own or even thought about reading.

Throughout the week of training all of them have grown incredibly. As well as growing closer to Percy. They all followed Percy around wherever he went like lost puppies. Almost all of camp knew the five young demigods, most thought of them as an elite force of some sorts.

They would all joke how the five were all mini Percy's, 'Heroes in Training', each one having the skills of a demigod years older than them, together, they could easily take on all the campers in their year/age group, maybe even the ones a year older.

Most of them saw Percy as an older brother, Dawn and Matt were now comfortable with Percy, only showing their usual shyness around the other campers. And Scott was slowly opening up, showing his more childlike side, but for now he was still closed off, still give a cold look to everyone. Especially since most compared him to Luke, staying away from him saying his just like Luke, fearing he would betray them too.

And then there was Thalia. Percy's relationship with her has changed greatly. He wasn't quite sure what they were, or what he felt exactly about her. But they spent nearly all day together. She didn't act all shy or anything now. Manly because Percy didn't tease her as much, and that was because he was so busy, always training or helping the new demigods.

But that was going to change. Summer was coming to an end, and all five demigods were leaving. So life will go back to normal. That made Percy sad, thinking he would go back to training all day with very little interaction. Sure he used to be by himself all the time, barely talking to people, but that's because he didn't know anyone, wasn't used to talking to people, just training. There was one difference now though, he had Thalia.

Maybe they could spend more time together. Maybe he could figure out what they are, what they could become, Percy would like that. To spend alone time with Thalia, he loved the way she'd blush when Percy would flirt with her, or 'accidentally' stand to close.

3rd Person Thalia

Over the past week Thalia has gotten really close to Percy. Closer than any other camper, and that made her oddly happy, she of course wouldn't admit that. But she didn't get much time with Percy to just hang out. The only time they hung out was when they were training or eating, and the brats were always hanging around. That's what she liked to call the group of young demigods, or how the camp knows them as, 'heroes in training,' HA.

But now the summer was ending and the younger demigods were leaving, and now Thalia had Percy all to herself. Well not like that of course. Well yet.

3rd Person

The demigods were now at their last breakfast before leaving. The group consisted of the Stoll brothers, Annabeth, Thalia, Percy, Grover, and the five young demigods.

Thalia sat on Percy's right, sitting as close as she could without people teasing her about how close she was. Annabeth quickly figured out the 'relationship' Percy and Thalia had. She had confronted Thalia about what it was and she said it was nothing, but she knew it would be, sooner or later.

She wasn't angry at Thalia, well at first she was, but she was extremely jealous. She knew the type of person Percy was, if he like Thalia he would like her until Thalia herself told him she wasn't interested. And even then he would still try to change her mind about him. The tension between Annabeth and Thalia was a little weird and even more around Percy, knowing she wouldn't get a chance with him.

On Percy's left was Dawn. After Percy got to know the younger demigods he's been training, Dawn wouldn't leave his side. She would cling onto him at all time she could, so that meant during lunch, during campfires after dinner, that Percy was now attending.

This didn't make Derek very happy, but he was okay with it since it was Percy, and Derek looked up to him as an older brother, just like the others.

"So where are you guys going for school?" Percy asked.

"My daddy and I live in California, he's an actor." Dawn said with a bright smile.

"Me and my brother live in Texas with our Pa." Adam said playing with one of the knives at the table.

"My brother and I." Matt corrected on deaf ears as the others continued their talk.

"Florida." Was all Scott said while he continued to eat.

"I live in Georgia with my Aunt." Derek said sadly, not wanting to leave camp or Dawn.

"What about you Percy? Where are you going?" Dawn asked looking up as she clung to his arm.

"Yeah fish breath. Where does the almighty prince of the seas live?" Thalia asked having no idea about Percy's mother. Her just wanting to know if she would get more time to spend with Percy or if she would have to wait until next summer.

After all no one talked about it, out of pity or fear. A couple of people had made fun of Percy's mom before, and by a couple that meant one, because after one demonstration, that was all that was needed.

One display of Percy's skills and power, and nearly half the camp was afraid of Percy. The showcase of his abilities to control the weather, making raging storms and the shaking ground, and it didn't help that Percy beat the camper half to death.

No one said much out of fear, Dionysus didn't care much, the friends he had at the time stayed far away from them, even Annabeth and Grover. But he did got a huge scolding by Chiron, which the entire time he was shamefully staring at his feet. Chiron being Percy's only parental figure.

After that there was no talk of Percy or his life before he crossed camp half-bloods borders for the first time. So the younger demigods had no idea what happen to Percy, or Thalia.

In a very cliche way, the entire dining hall went silent, except for the few that that didn't know about Percy's past, which were the very loud, very new, and very young demigods.

Percy finished chewing his food, muscles tensed, as all the other campers stared at him, waiting for his reaction."I stay here year round." Is all that Percy said before throwing his scraps away and leaving.

"What was that all about?" Thalia asked.

"Um…..well." Annabeth started as everyone in their group started to look away or down, or become a lot more interested in their food.

"Somebody better start talking, or else I'm going to start shocking some people." Thalia said covering her fist in electricity.

Line Break

Percy was sitting at the middle of the lake, his water abilities allowing him to sit on the water, just like Jesus. Percy thought about the different pantheons a lot. About how they were actually from the Greek pantheon. He wondered who 'Jesus', was he a son of a sea god, Dionysus, who.

Right now none of that really mattered, Percy just needed something to distract him from his mother. From the end of summer, which leads to the younger demigods, that Percy has grown very fond of, leaving him.

Percy stood up on the water and slowly walked back to the shores, getting stares from the campers that still weren't over Percy's powers.

He slowly made his way to the camp borders to say goodbye to the campers that were leaving. He waved at the passing campers and nymphs that gave the occasional bow or 'milord', that greatly annoyed him, but he didn't want to keep telling them to stop.

"Hey guys." Percy greeted.

"Percy!" Dawn yelled as she wrapped her arms around Percy's neck and cried into his shoulder."I'm sorry Percy I didn't know." Dawn said in between sobs.

"It's okay monkey." Percy said making Dawn smile at her nickname."You didn't know." He said with a fake smile, and dark and emotionless eyes, that only few could see past with Percy's practice over his emotions through meditation. Not even the daughter of Aphrodite saw through it. "Now you have fun at school. Be sure to study hard, and remember your training."

Percy went around giving hugs to all the young demigods he had been training. Saying his goodbyes, reminding them to study and train, to do good in school and stay out of trouble. Well as much as a demigod could that is.

As the last of the campers were finally going back to their daily activities, Percy felt someone wrap the arms around his waist.

"I'm sorry Percy." Thalia said into Percy's back." I had no idea. If I did I would have…"

"It's fine Thalia, you didn't know." Percy said turning around to face Thalia.

"Stop that." Thalia whispered.

"Stop what?"

"That smile. You're always faking it, I can see it in your eyes, so please stop that. You can trust me. You don't have to hide your emotions around me. I can help you." Thalia said as she began to rub Percy's back and hear his soft sobs.

This went on for a few minutes until Percy pulled back, to Thalia's distastes. She still wanted Percy close to her, to feel the warmth he always emitted, the constant power that leaked out in waves, and the smell of saltwater that she has grown to love.

"Thalia." Percy started as he stared into her powerful blue eyes."I'm not staying at camp. I'm leaving so I can better train my powers." This made Thalia look sad, knowing she would have to wait for next summer to see Percy.

"Well, okay. You need the practice anyway, fish breath." Thalia said trying to hide her sorrow.

"You just told me not to hide my emotions, please don't start doing the same." He said as he softly rubbed her check with his knuckles.

"What are you talking about? Did you hit your head or something?" Thalia said with a fake smile and a soft laugh.

"I know how you feel." At those words panic started to form in Thalia's, a huge lump getting stuck in her throat."Or at least I think I know how you feel. And if I'm right, I feel the same." He finished with a huge blush on his face.

For some reason, when Thalia saw him blush she knew he was telling the truth. But at the same time she wanted some revenge from all the times Percy made her blush and teased her.

"And how exactly do you feel?" She said with a huge smirk on her face.

'You know." Percy said quietly as he looked away from her.

"Hasn't anyone told you it's rude not to look at someone when you're talking." Thalia's smirk grew even more after she used one of the many lines Percy used on her to tease her."Well, how do you feel."

Percy took a deep breath a closed his eyes, tying to put some of that mind training to good use. When he opened his sea green eyes they glowed with power and determination. "Thalia Grace,"

After seeing Percy regain himself, with a look of determination, and hearing her full name, Thalia was once again the blushing mess. Percy pushed Thalia against a tree so their faces was inches away from each other and Thalia could feel the warmth of Percy.

"I like you, a lot." Percy laughed through his nose after he said that. "As you can see I'm really good at showing my emotions." He said getting a giggle from Thalia. "I love it when you giggle, it's so adorable. It shows that you're relaxed, and comfortable with me." He said as he brought Thalia's chin up so she was looking into his eyes."I think I like it more when you blush though."

He said as he caught Thalia's upper lip between his, as he began to kiss her. He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her closer. This went on for a few minutes before Percy pulled back. As soon as he did Thalia moved forward to reconnect their lips.

"Well aren't you eager." Percy said with his lopsided smile that made Thalia melt.

"Shut up." She said burying her head into the crook of his neck.

"I want you to come with me."

"What?" She said looking back into his powerful sea green eyes.

"Come with me. We can help each other grow stronger." He paused as he pushed Thalia against a tree."Plus, I want to further explore what we have." Percy said as he went to start their earlier 'activity'.

But before they could they were interrupted by a loud and clumsy satyr. "Perce, there you are. I've been looking all... Oh. Sorry. I'm interrupting something, aren't I?"

" !" Percy and Thalia said at the same time. Percy with a smirk and Thalia red with anger with a few sparks flying of her.

"What's up Grover? And get to the point before you get shocked." Percy said holding a squirming Thalia in his arms. "Calm down. Well have more time later." Percy whispered in a husky voice to Thalia, as she instantly settled down and blushed into his arms.

"Well I just got back and heard that you were leaving to train. So I thought I would say bye before you left." Grover said shyly.

"So.. get over here then." Percy said releasing a now angry Thalia a pulled Grover into a hug. "It's good to see you man. It's been a while."

"Yeah it has. You haven't gotten into much trouble without me around, have you?"

"If you look over my shoulder you'll see that you're the one in trouble." Percy whispered to Grover as he saw a fuming Thalia.

"Well I got to go see you guys. Good to see you Thalia." Grover quickly said before sprinting away.

"Get back her goat boy!" Thalia yelled as she lunged for him, but Percy caught her in his arms.

"Aw, what, you want to get away that bad?" Percy said fake pouting.

"No." she said in a quiet voice. "I'd never." Thalia said barely audible, thinking Percy didn't hear.

"Awe, I didn't know you liked me that much."

"Shut up!" She said as she started pounding his chest.

Percy laughed hard, this alone calmed Thalia down as she leaned against his vibrating chest with her eyes closed. "So will you come with me."

Thalia looked up at Percy and smiled."Of course I will. Who else is going to keep you out of trouble?" she said as she gave Percy a peck on the check.

"I'm going to go get packed. Meet back at the big house in an hour."

Line Break

Percy had changed his clothes before packing all his stuff. He was now wearing a pair of dark blue jeans, a grey shirt, black jacket, black and white Adidas, and a watch Tyson had made for Percy as a goodbye gift. Since Tyson was going to Atlantis with Polyphemus until Percy returned from training.

Percy had packed most of his clothes, all his shirts, pants, shorts, etc. He was bringing a dagger and a couple of throwing knives, but he wasn't able to bring any other weapons. They would be too large to carry around.

He thought he would try to get some new weapons. Ones he could actually carry around. He like, no loved Riptide, but being too reliant on one weapon would be bad. Especially if he lost his weapon for good and need to use a different weapon.

As Percy walked up to the big house he saw that Thalia had also changed. She wore a black tank top that showed of her black bra straps, black skinny jeans, black leather boots, and you guest it a black book bag draped over one of her shoulders.

"Hey beautiful." Percy said smiling at Thalia.

"Shut up." Thalia said with a smile she tried to hide.

"So do you have everything together?"

"Yea."

"I'm not complaining or anything, but do you think those skinny jeans were a good option."

"What do you mean?"

"Well they do look good." Percy paused to check her out and made her blush extremely."But it would limit your movement in battle."

"That's fine. I have my big, strong, hero to protect me." She said as she draped her arms around Percy's neck." Plus."

"Ow!"

"I've gotten really good at using these." She laughed as she showed her hands covered in lightning.

"That hurt!"

"Oh, stop being a baby." Thalia said as Percy squirmed in her hold. "Stop your squirming."

"Then turn those things off. Stop!" Percy said as Thalia's hands were still sparkling with lightning.

She giggled before she stop using her divine powers. So held her hand out for Percy to take, which he took reluctantly, this made Thalia smirk.

Thalia lead Percy up the hill to her tree, and then down again to their waiting car. Thalia slide into the back full of excitement. She just kept thinking to herself,'Percy likes me','Percy likes me','Percy likes me','Oh my gods, he likes me. I'm going to spend ten months alone with Percy.'' .Gods.'

As Percy sat down next to her she clung to her arm like a teenage school girl. Snuggling up to his arm like she had done it a million times before. She was acting like a girl, not her usual punk, bad ass self.

"Where to Percy." Argus asked giving the two a smile.

Percy had visited Argus a couple of times, not much, but he tried. He did have constant training and studying as well as teaching the new demigods, and trying to stay sociable as Chiron asked. Throughout the summer he had visited Argus about three times. Just talked to him a little nothing specific or special.

"Takes up to Montauk Beach." Percy said relaxing his arm around Thalia as she also made herself comfortable under his arm.
