p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;""PERCY! YOUR BACK!"/p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"I was crushed in a giant hug by Phoebe. Her hug's too tight! I can barely breathe!/p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;""Can... you... please... let... go... of... mwe." I panted out. Phoebe released me but still made sure that I was right in front of her so she could 'keep an eye' on me. Is it just me or does that sound kinda disgusting?/p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;""Zoe, I believe you have something to say to Percy." Mommy said in a strict-like tone./p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;""I'm sorry for calling you a bastard and being a bi-"/p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;""Zoe!"/p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;""Bad person." Zoe said in a huffy tone. I think she half meant it./p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;""I'm sorry too. I shouldn't have reacted that way. It was rude and as you would probably say, maleish." I told her. Mommy always told me never get angry at a women/girl. It was never the smart thing to do. I wonder why. Oh wait. They're the hunters./p

p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"strong2 Years Later/strong/p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"strongPercy Age 7/strong/p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"I walked around the woods, holding my breath. Mom told me that I could go for a walk, but I kept hearing what sounded like screaming./p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"I was about 2 hours and 6 miles away from where we camped because I ran from a wild hellhound that was after me. After running for so long, I found a tree that I climbed and jumped of and killed the hellhound, but I was already a long way from where we camped. Now, I was trying to find out were the noises were coming from./p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"As I kept going, the screams got louder. In the hunt, I was taught how to identify the different sounds that animals/people make. It sound like there was a satyr, one boy, and two girls. One of the screams sounded bleaty, if that's a word, one low pitched, and the other two high pitched but one of the two a little lower than the other so one of the girls were older./p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"I kept going in the direction of the screams./p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"The sky was starting to darkened, and I knew I should've been heading home. But I didn't. Someone/ones needed my help and it would be wrong to just ignore them./p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"I entered a clearing and I saw them./p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"There were hellhounds, The Furies, and a Cyclopes fighting a girl with black hair and electric blue eyes. She looked to be about 12. A satyr was leading a boy with blonde hair and blue eyes and a girl with blonde princess like curls and stormy like gray eyes. I quickly identified the probably demigods parent. Zeus, Hermes and Athena./p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"I took the bow Mom made me take just in case and loaded it with an arrow. Then I drew the string back and aimed at one of the Furies that was sneaking up behind the girl. I let go of the string and the arrow hit the Fury, making her explode into a cloud of golden dust./p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"The girl with blonde hair saw me. Her eyes brighten as she realize I was helping her friend. She was then quickly dragged forward and out of my line of vision. I resumed my task of picking off the monsters one by one, until I ran out of arrows. Then I rushed into battle with the knife I always kept with me, and slashed more hellhounds, that seemed to be multiplying./p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;""Go ahead to your friends!" I yelled at the black haired girl. "I'll hold these guys off."/p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;""I can't leave you here. Wait, who even are you!"/p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;""My names Percy Jackson."/p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"Suddenly, the Cyclopes stopped advancing. "STOP!" It yelled. All the monsters froze in place. "I want one. This one. He special." The Cyclopes reached down and was about to pick me up when a bronze knife nailed him the head, and disappeared into a cloud of golden dust./p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"Black haired girl picked up the knife while all the monsters were frozen in shock, for there leader was dead. In fact, the Furies had died a while ago, so it was only the hellhounds and Cyclopes fighting. Now, the hellhounds were left. Knowing they would lose, the hellhounds disappeared into the shadows./p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;""Annabeth was that you!" The black haired girl asked./p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;""Yes Thalia. I wasn't just going to leave you there to die. Even if you did have a little help." She said looking in my direction./p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"So the black haired girl was named Thalia, blonde girl was Annabeth, and I still don't know the other two boys names./p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;""His name is Percy Jackson. At least that's what he told me." Thalia told her, neither taking their eyes off of me./p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;""That's true. Where are you other companions? Did they go on ahead without you?" I asked, wondering they were wasting there time looking at me. Plus, Annabeth was scaring me. She may look the same age as me but her eyes seem to be analyzing my every move./p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;""I told Luke and Grover to go ahead. I wanted to come back and help you and Thalia. Are you going to Camp Half-Blood too?"/p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;""Camp Half-Blood? What's that?" I asked. I only know of one camp. The hunters camp./p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;""It's a refuge for half-bloods like us. It's the one place demigods are safe."/p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"Then it came to me./p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"I remember a few months ago, the hunters found a group of demigods going to Camp Half-Blood and offered the two girls in the group a chance to be in the hunt. I had to wait in my tent until they decided what they were going to do. Both girls said no and then they left. These must be the same girls!/p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;""It's not the only place. There's the hunt too." I said, making sure I was correct with my assumption./p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;""We ran into them and they offered us to join. But we could never leave Luke behind. He's family."/p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"I smiled. "Well I must be going now. Maybe I will see you again someday."/p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;""Your not going to Camp Half-Blood?" Thalia said worryingly./p
p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;""Nope. I got my own refuge." And with that I made my way back to the hunt, hoping I wouldn't get home too late./p

p style="font-family: -webkit-standard; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"strongI'm going to Hilton Head tomorrow! So I decided to update before I leave so I wont make you wait too long. This is your last chance to decide who you want Percy to be with. You have to chose between the top four so I wont be getting votes on couples that would need a lot to win. No offense to the people who don't like the top three but this the easist thing to do so I can start getting ideas./strong/p
