Sorry for the long wait! Here it is! Read and Review!

Athena

From the moment Percy was claimed there was something in my mind, a thousand year old rivalry, that sparked my hatred. I'll admit there were times I almost liked him there are even now, times he saved my Annabeth.

The gods aren't supposed to play favorites but we always do, always one in a generation which outshines the rest. I've had many brilliant children in the past, but Annabeth is different. There is something about her desires that make her more like me, something in the way she walks, the way she talks. Something always shining through. She is the crown jewel of my children, something of a pride and joy.

They weren't friends at first, Percy and Annabeth, much the opposite, awkward half enemies, always on the others last nerve. She made me proud.

Their first quest was what one might call a disaster, Percy had no training and I was convinced my jewel was doomed. I thought he would be useless, boring and dumb like all of Kelp Head's other kids. But, he proved me wrong.

They were riding a bus when it happened, the furies showed up. Annabeth told Percy to go, and gave him her cap, the cap I gave her. He was hiding when he realized they needed help, he tried a few failing plans with no success. So he took it off, he put himself in danger to help them stay alive, in a way showing they all go down together or get out together.

I could not express my relief when they got off the bus, the bus exploded and all their possessions were destroyed but they were safe. My Annabeth was ok.

They then continued on, him leading them as they fought Medusa, and trudged on in search of the entrance to the underworld. He allowed them to be stretched, the useless and stupid boy did, chatting it up with Procrustes while he ripped her spine apart.

Then they got into the underworld, after bribing Charon obviously. He talked to Hades and was given the chance to leave behind a friend and save his mother.

She offered. She offered to stay behind, my Annabeth told him to take his mother and go. But, he didn't he told his mother he'd find a way to save her than left the underworld with my father's bolt and both his friends.

In the end, they were friends, him fighting Ares and winning then them heading back to camp where much to my surprise Annabeth decided to give living at home a try. I was delighted.

Their second quest was kind of another disaster, with them searching for the useless satyr and him showing bravery and saving her from the sirens. Then Annabeth was almost killed by a cyclops and he barely saved her with the fleece. In their books rather uneventful. Until, later that summer, Thalia Grace was brought back to life.

This brought up issues, Thalia became an automatic friend for Annabeth as they had been close in the past but Percy would not back down. He stuck around and kept Annabeth as a friend, refusing to give her up to Thalia.

His third quest was done without her, she had been kidnapped. I felt it was all his fault until he snuck away, he raced from camp to save her putting himself in danger. I felt the need to help him, half way through the quest I came to him, at the Hoover Dam, I gave him advice and he used it. Once the quest was completed I told him of his fatal flaw, loyalty, I didn't want him around my daughter, he would constantly put her in danger, Kronos using her to get to him.

I let my hatred seep back, I had helped him and no longer owed him anything in terms of debt. He was Kelp Heads son but non the less respectable.

My fury however, surged when he stomped on Annabeth's heart by showing up with that Dare girl (an accident or not) just as she went to find him. He had gone from respectable to despicable with one action, he had no right to do that to Annabeth, hurting her like that. She forgave him, regrettably and they stayed friends.

By the time they were in Hephaestus's forge looking for the intruders I had also forgiven him, and things would have stayed that way had she not made the first move.

He was telling her to get out to save herself and I couldn't help but admire his bravery in doing so. I was sad he would most likely die, as shocking as that is, but I felt that Annabeth had a chance of living, making it out alive. She nodded sadly and I smiled, I didn't want them both to die.

Then she kissed him.

I think I erupted in fury, I was so angry I don't really remember, then of course, that imbecile went and blew up Mt. St. Helens. I don't know much of how it happened I was too busy erupting and yelling. I do know however he landed on Calypso's island.

Naturally he stayed there for three weeks leaving Annabeth to believe he was dead. This of course broke her heart and she was forced to help plan the burning of his shroud. Only then did he show his foul little face, acting like his 'vacation' was planned, she was delighted but after hearing his story she discovered how foul he was.

Not to mention how he chose that moment to bring up the solution to the labyrinth, yet another girl. In fact, the very same girl he broke her heart with the first time. Rachel Elizabeth Dare.

Annabeth could barely contain her anger as they fetched the mortal and delivered a few satisfyingly witty comments. She guided them out of the maze though, they all lived and Annabeth and Percy became friends. Somehow, almost dying was a usual thing that mended their fights and fixed their friendship.

They found Pan, Luke turned evil and Annabeth was left heartbroken, again.

He still wouldn't take a hint. She kissed him and somehow he thought they were still just friends. So he went of galavanting with his mortal friend and broke her heart, yet again.

I fought Typhon then, mostly missing what happened to Annabeth but I could still keep an eye on them, watching them fight and him stand over her as she fell, injured. He stood proud and brave, threatening a whole titan army. His bravery was admirable and yet still stupid.

He admitted to bathing in the styx and even showed her where his mortal point was, again dumb if you ask me. She told him he was cute when he was worried.

I think that helped me fuel some anger, helping me fight Typhon.

Then it was all over.

Percy had saved the day, Annabeth was fine and everything was going to be ok.

Zeus offered for Percy to be a god, I thought it was a good idea, he would leave Annabeth alone and she'd move on. But, he declined, he asked us to claim and recognize our children and the children of the minor gods too. I supported it mostly because it was wise and I was trying to hide my surprise, most heroes jumped at the chance at immortality.

They got together that evening and somehow, I wasn't very angry. I didn't blow up or break things.

I saw that he made her happy, he was there to mend her broken heart and he'd be there to keep her safe just like always.

Their right for each other, but, I will never admit their soul mates. Though I think even I know they were meant to be.

What did you think? Please review and let me know! I'm thinking of doing Poseidon next! Do you like this idea? Tell Me!
