Chapter 1

A/N: Hi again thanks so much for all of your support. This is my first fanfic and it really means a lot to me that you guys all like it. Please review you only have to write a sentence and it really makes my day when someone does.

To thalia grace (I think you're a guest but I'm not sure): Yeah they should, have you got any suggestions? Thanks for being my first reviewer!

On with the story!

Percy.

One month later...

"Have you got your shoes?"

"Yes mum"

"Have you got riptide?"

"Mum, I can't lose it"

"Have you got underwear?"

"MUM! Seriously, I've got everything."

She looked kind of hurt and I felt sorry but she could go on for hours about stuff and I was itching to go.

A fact to remember, my mum is the best person in the world. She looked after me for 12 years without me having any training, she stayed married to a gross guy to keep me safe and she killed monsters with me in the Titan war when I was 16. (A/N: Percy is 17 at the moment.)

Anyways I was dying (not literally and trust me I know how it feels) to go to my favourite place in the world. Camp half blood. I've been going there since I was 12 and I never get sick of the strawberry fields, or the woods or the big house. But every time I go I end up on a quest. My quests are dangerous. For example: the underworld, the sea of monsters, rescuing Artemis, Daedalus' (A/N: Is that how you spell it?) labyrinth, the river Styx and battling Kronos.

Hopefully this will be the one time I don't get a quest so I can just have a normal summer – well, as normal as it gets at camp half blood.

"Okay then Percy, if you've forgotten anything I'll send it with Hermes."

I smiled. "Thanks Mum."

I hugged her then got on my Pegasus, Blackjack, and flew up into the air. I think I heard Paul Blofis, my stepdad, say "He'll be fine" As I soared up over Manhattan.

"You got any donuts this time Boss?" Blackjack asked in my head.

"You know they're bad for you blackjack."

"Okay... Sugar cubes?"

"Blackjack!"

"Sorry."

We swooped around the Empire state building and I thought of my girlfriend Annabeth. A year back she had re-designed the whole of Mount Olympus, which by the way is at the top of the Empire state building. It is amazing. She is the best architect since –insert name of famous architect here- and she made everything really awesome!

We kept flying until in the distance I could see a very strange collection of buildings. One was four storeys tall and massive, like some famous family's mansion. The rest were all cabins decorated completely different from one another. One was bright red with strands of barbed wire on top, one was black as night, made of solid obsidian and one was made of marble with designs of lightning bolts on the outside (there was also some theatre masks on the outside, courtesy of the Hermes cabin, as Zeus was known for dramatic exits).

We landed in front of cabin 3, Poseidon's cabin. It was quite low and decorated with seashells all kinds of things from the bottom of the ocean. I got off Blackjack and thanked him for the ride.

"Anytime Boss" He said and flew off.

I walked into the cabin and was met by a flying tackle/hug. It was Em, my half sister.

"Percy!" She yelled "I thought you'd never get here."

Em is 8 years old and came to camp half blood escorted by my friend Grover last summer, just after the titan war. She came so young because her mum died when she was 7 so she lived on the streets in Denver. When Grover bumped into her he recognised the same 'child of Poseidon' aura in her as he had in me, so he brought her to camp immediately. She has the same sea-green eyes and jet black hair as me and everyone who knows us says we're almost exactly the same.

"Travis and Conner made the roof pink." She said

"WHAT!"

"So I flooded there cabin" She grinned.

"Good on you Em," I said "They'll probably try to get us back some time in the summer though."

"So we have to be prepared!" She smiled crookedly.

"You got it little buddy."

Just then, in the distance a conch shell blew.

"It's dinner time!" She sang.

We walked over to the pavilion and saw all the other cabins lining up.

"Hi, seaweed brain."

I turned. "Annabeth!" I exclaimed as i hugged her.

"Hey there, Em. Are you getting better with that sword?"

Em nodded.

"Awesome," I said "Some day you're gonna be better than me with all the training you do year round."

Em beamed. "That's silly Percy. You're the best swordsman in the last 300 years!"

Annabeth walked off to join her siblings at the Athena table and we sat down and loaded our plates with food. Then we took them to the fire.

"Poseidon." I murmured as I scraped some food into the flames. Em did the same. We then sat down to eat when suddenly there was a flash of light and I heard a voice behind me.

"Hello Percy and Em."

I turned and saw the smiling face of my father.

A/N: Wooo! The first chapter finished, I told you it would be longer. I put this up earlier than I planned to because I'm ill so I've been at home all day and I thought I would write some more! Please review! I'm dying to hear what you all think. Until we meet again...
