I don't own Percy Jackson and the Olympians:(


Percy's P.O.V.

Now I understand what Juniper meant when she said that what I saw will break me. I'm still in one piece, but I feel like my heart was shattered into a million pieces and my brain stopped working as I dropped the nearly destroyed gifts. What I see is Annabeth and the new camper from the Apollo cabin, I think his name is James or something. He stumbled over the camp's border a couple weeks ago, but I didn't really pay too much attention to him at first. All I knew was that he was a pretty decent sword fighter. Focus, I chastise myself, stupid ADHD brain, focus.

It wasn't that they were alone in a secluded place far away from everyone that made me feel broken, it's what they were doing. They were kissing each other deeply. I never would have thought Annabeth would have done this to me. I told her the location of my weak spot, and I gave her my heart. I even gave up godhood for her, and she turns around and kisses a guy she's only known for a couple of weeks. I can't believe she would do this to me.

I didn't feel anything, it's like I was hollow on the inside. I was emotionless as I just stood there. I finally collected my thoughts and started to turn around and leave, but as I turned around, I heard Annabeth whisper something. Something I was hoping she would say to me after I told her how I felt. She whispered, "I love you."

That was what made me turn back around to face them. I walked forward into the clearing and cleared my throat to get their attention. When they saw me, Annabeth's eyes got big and she looked surprised, but not guilty at all. James had a smug look on his face and all I wanted to do at that moment was beat his head in.

"Annabeth, I can't believe you did this!" I yelled, "Did I even mean anything to you? Did you just think you can use me and then move on to the next guy? And you, James! Do you have no self-respect? You're kissing somebody else's girlfriend and you don't even feel bad or guilty about it! What's wrong with you?"

Annabeth stayed silent and took an interest in her shoes. But as she was looking at the ground, James yelled back,"What's wrong with me? You're the one that couldn't keep a girlfriend! And my name is Jared, not James."

"Whatever, Jerry." Oh, gods. I'm starting to act like Dionysus, I thought. "We're through, Annabeth. I can't believe I was going to tell you I love you! How can anybody ever love you? You're too much of a b*tch!"

She kept looking at the ground and stayed silent. "How dare you call her that?! I'll kill you!" Jared drew his sword. I just stood there, waiting for him to attack. When he charged forward my hand twitched towards my pocket for Riptide. My original plan was to let him swing at me and his sword would shatter against my invulnerable skin, but I realized Annabeth might have told him where my weak spot is. So as hegot closer I pulled Riptide out of my pocket and uncapped it. It elongated until it was three feet long and it felt natural in my hands, like it was made for me.

He slashed at me with a loud battle cry, but I blocked his attack. I tried to slash at his legs, but he just jumped away. I knew I could take him easily, but I felt like messing with him a bit, so as he jabbed at my face I leaned slightly to the side and let his sword pass right next to my head and used the flat of my blade to whack his head slightly. He was stunned for a moment, but he quickly got over it and went back to fighting me. Every time he swung I would dodge or deflect it and lightly tap him wherever he was the most vulnerable. It was quite funny to see the look of outrage on his face every time it tapped him. But it started to get boring when I remembered why we were fighting in the first place. So the next time he swung, I easily blocked it with my sword and punched him in the face with my other hand. He was caught off guard and I smashed the hilt of Riptide on his head while he was surprised, and he was out like a light.

I looked up from his unconcious form to Annabeth. I said with hatred and sadness in my voice,"I never want to see you again."

"I'm sorr-"

"No, you aren't. You're only sorry you got caught. I don't want to hear you excuses, I heard what you said to him. I never want to see you again."

I turn around and walk back out of the clearing, smashing the roses and chocolates beneath my feet as I walked away. As I pass by Juniper's tree, I say,"You were right."

I continue on my way to my cabin and I lay in my bed, face smashed against the pillow. As I lie there I think of what I should do next. Dinner will be soon, I thought. But unlike usual, I'm not hungry. So I just keep lying there until I finally figured out what to do. I jumped up and packed a bag with a couple shirts, pants, drachmas, ambrosia and nectar. I put on the watch/shield Tyson made for me a while back and put a few more things in my bag, I was all set.

I'm running away, I thought to myself.

I sneak to the pegasi stables and called out with my mind, Blackjack!

Yo, boss. Did you bring any donuts, my pegasus comes towards me, and I hopped on.

No, but we can stop to get donuts on the way. I offered

On the way to where, boss?

I don't know yet, just anywhere but here.

You sure about this, boss? he asked.

Of course I am, now come on. I want to leave before dinner starts.

Alrighty then, he said and took off. As we flew away, over the ocean, I heard a horn blowing behind us. But it didn't sound like the normal dinner horn. It sounded a little wilder, and kind of dangerous. I knew I've heard it before, but I just can't remember completely from where. I pushed the thoughts out of my head and closed my eyes and fell asleep.


Awwww, Percy got his heart broken. Poor Percy. Tell me what you thought, so please review!
