I'm in the bathroom at the airport. I know what you're thinking, 'Oh my gosh, Percy flew in an airplane, he should have been blasted to pieces!'. Actually, before I flew, I asked Zeus for permission to fly through an IM. I explained to him that I had just found out that Annabeth and I had kids. At first he argued that I could travel by boat since Poseidon was my dad and all. I insisted that traveling by plane was much faster than by boat. We kept arguing until Hera intervened and helped me convince Zeus.

Anyways, now I'm here in the bathroom trying to think about what I'm going to tell Annabeth, and my kids. Whoa that sounded weird! I've never had kids before, it's all because of HIM! He was defeated, but he didn't disappear.

Flashback:

I was cuddled next to Annabeth. We were both exhausted from the events that took place earlier that night, she was sleeping already, but I was just staring at her. She looked like an angel, because that's what she was. Sure she had an attitude but she was still an angel, most importantly my angel. A few minutes later I fell asleep, immediately, I started dreaming.

In my dream I heard a raspy voice, a voice that I had heard many times before, Kronos's voice. Unlike the other times he had spoken to me, I wasn't in a pit near Tartarus or The Princess Andromeda, it was just pitch black. Kronos's voice spoke from everywhere at once, "Silly, mortal. You think I was destroyed, but unfortunately for you, I'm not. I always have a backup plan. You see, not all of my spirit was deposited into Luke, some of it was deposited into my monsters. They will avenge my defeat, I promise you, they will not have mercy. They will haunt you and all that you love. They will make sure that you see every single person you care for die. Remember, Perseus Jackson, Kronos always keeps his promises."

I woke up sweaty and panting. I looked over at Annabeth and remembered everything that Kronos had said and decided that I couldn't, wouldn't and shouldn't let Annabeth, my mom or the camp get hurt. The only way to protect everyone was to go away. Right away I started to pack my bags. I took some clothes, toiletries, some drachmas and mortal money. I left a note next to Annabeth that said, "I'm really sorry Annabeth, but this is what's best for both of us. Please remember, that I will always love you. - Percy Jackson, Seaweed Brain"

I sneaked out of my cabin as quietly as possible, I had to be careful with the harpies going around camp. I ran toward the road as fast as I could. Once I reached the road, I realized that there were no cars, or taxis. Suddenly I had an idea. I recited in ancient Greek, what Annabeth had recited three years ago and hailed the gray sisters' taxi. I got in and told them to take me to the bus station. I finally got to the bus station about 45 minutes later. I bought the earliest ticket to Seattle. Unfortunately, the earliest bus was at 3:30pm.

I slept the rest of the night. When I woke up I bought breakfast from the cafeteria and I wandered the bus station until I had to board my bus. The ride was 2 days, 18 hours and 27minutes long. I constantly looked at my watch, the one Tyson had made for me, I was filled with sadness at the thought that I might never see him again. When I got off the bus I didn't know where to go. I asked a lady where the nearest motel was.

When I arrived at the motel and asked the clerk how may nights I could stay with 258.00 dollars he told me I could only stay five days. I realized I needed to get a job. the room had a twin bed, a TV, and a small bathroom. I had only been in a hotel one other time, in the Lotus hotel and Casino, this was nothing close to the rooms Grover, Annabeth and I got there. Then I realized my mistake, I should havegone there, I would never grow old, I would live a luxurious life and I would forget everything that pains me. I would also have food. Since I was hungry I went to the nearest convenience store and bought milk, and bread and Ramen noodles. There was a guy in front of me at the cashier. He was complaining about not being able to find anyone for his main role. He needed a black haired teen to play Julio guy who had lost the loveof his life to his brother. He was paying 15 dollars an hour! I immediately jumped at the opportunity and told the guy I was available. He gave me a chance to try out for the part. I had a lot of trouble remembering the lines I had to say. When I auditioned I actually forgot the lines but words came to me naturally, after all I did lose the love of my life. I got the part and was able to get an apartment. After that play I did several others.

About 5 years after I started acting my director referred me to a movie director. That's what started me on my movie career. The day my first movie premiered I wasn't at the gala. I IM-ed Annabeth, well I didn't really talk to her I just watched her sleep. I don't know what came over me, but I just felt like I needed to see her. From that day on I IM-ed her every summer, since that was the only time I knew when she was asleep.

Seven years ago I met Rebeca. I met her kind of like how I met Rachel Elizabeth Dare. I was fighting the minotaur, again, except this time he was bigger. We were in an alley and I was trapped between him and the wall. I quickly charged in a zigzag motion. As he disappeared into dust I turned around to walk away, but I still had Riptide out. Riptide went right through her and she yelled at me. " You moron! You should be careful with that sword!"

"You see a sword?"

"No, I see a hat." She said in a sarcastic tone "Yes, I see a sword. Are you really so slow that you don't even know what you're holding?"

"We have to talk."

"We have nothing to talk about." Rebeca said clearly annoyed.

A few minutes later I got her to listen to me and we went to a coffee shop nearby. I told her about the Greek myths and that I was a half-blood. She was very interested in learning about my life. I told her how I battled the minotaur my first summer and about my quests with Annabeth, Tyson and Grover. I even told her why I had left them, the camp and my mom in New York. From that moment on we became great friends. When she lost her job I told her about some auditions she could go to. She turned out to be a natural. She quickly became a well known actress, as did I.

We got engaged only a few months ago. I only proposed because she was the closest to love that I would ever get. She knew that I still loved Annabeth as much as when I left (she saw me IM Annabeth one night) but she still agreed. She too felt like she would never find love. Through the years I have become successful, famous, and somewhat rich but I have also suffered.

End Flashback

I finally gathered up the courage to go outside and face Annabeth, Sandra and Mckenzie. As I came out of the bathroom I could see Rebeca talking to Annabeth and my kids. Annabeth looked as beautiful as ever. When I got to where they all were I said "Nice to see you Annabeth. It's been a long time."

A/N: I'm sorry it took so long for me to update but I was at camp and then I've had to go to a lot of birthday parties. Please review Flames are accepted and expected, I think this chapter turned out horrible. There's a link on my profile for the Lightning Thief trailer for anyone interested.
