3 years later...

6:00am Friday, 17th august...

The sound of the alarm on the clock woke me from my nightmare; I reached my hand out and suddenly smacked the clock to the ground. It always gets abused, pulling the covers off and pulled myself up groaning, and stumbling to the bathroom. Looking up at myself I first saw a birds nest right on top of my head... Great! How am I meant to fix this?

Looking back at my room and sighed, back at my house with my father... Back in school and not in camp.. Shaking my head to get rid of the torturous dreams about Percy... Every night I would have a nightmare about him...every single night, him always running away mouthing his love for me. How can he say he loves me if he is gone.. For 3 years? He's forgotten me.. Shaking the feelings of loneliness, rejection I started the shower and got ready for school...

40 minutes latttar, and quite a lot of singing...

Packing her bag while she ate her breakfast, looking around to see that neither Helen nor dad is up yet and looked towards the door hearing a honk, I smiled knowing that her best friend from her school, Sarah was getting impatient.

Rushing out of the house towards the car and grinned, pulling the car door open and quickly slamming it close and seeing Sarah roll her eyes, Tutting in annoyance while I laughed "I'm not that late Sarah, so relax okay?" Sarah pulled the car in drive, taking off quickly "well it's not my fault that the school is bloody 40 minutes away and we still need to pick up Daniel, soo add 20 more minutes wasted"

"Doesn't Ryan need a lift? Remember Sarah this is our last year of school, so be happy." Sarah studied annabeth noticing the black circles under her eyes but turned her eyes back on the road "even tho Ryan is our friend I secretly hate him, and he has his own car and just because he lives next-door to you doesn't mean I'm going to be a freaken bus to school, I guess, one later year I will out of San Francisco, bye-bye sun and hello chilly New York!"

Annabeth sighed sadly looking out the window instead, thinking about when she was last at New York... Annabeth jumped when Sarah called her name, looking around and back at Sarah who asked "you didn't sleep well did you? And don't tell me all that nonsense that it doesn't matter mumbo jumbo, I know you have nightmares a lot I'm your best friend so why can't you tell me what's wrong Annabeth? You always shut people out that are trying to help..."

Annabeth groaned in frustration "why do you want to know so badly, it's a nightmare big deal, and New York is a boring place... there's nothing there interesting," snapping the last out harshly, Sarah flinched but rose an eyebrow "so the nightmare was placed in New York huh? Tell why you hate the Big Apple or whatever they call it?"

Annabeth bit her lip "it's complicated Sarah, you don't want to know..." Sarah sighed but kept that subject away for another day and turned into Daniels driveway and honked loudly, grinning while Daniel stumbled outside the door and dropping his bag, picking it up and glared at Sarah muttering something about 'how can Sarah be can't morning person when she's so grumpy' Annabeth chuckled and leaned back and opened the door behind her waiting for Daniel to hop in...

Daniel, Annabeth smiled at the thought of how nice her guy friend was, sure he was a little geeky but it was cute, he was the only one that understood the addiction Annabeth 'supposedly had towards Greek mythology' but he still was mortal...thinking her could pull off being a son of Athena and knowing Malcolm would definitely like him.

Breaking her train of thought Daniel grinned sheepishly and closed the door apologizing that's he's late because of his little sister Euphemia, that wouldn't let go of his bag therefore he had to chased around the whole house trying to get it back. "Okay so Annabeth, check... Daniel, check.. Remembered my cookies... Yup okay the school bus is back on route!" Annabeth rolled her eyes and turned to Daniel behind her and started chatting happily until Daniel asked "it's the 17th of august right annabeth?"

The 17th... Annabeth gritted her teeth but nodded at Daniel, her happy mood instantly disappeared because of remembering what tomorrow is... The 18th of August (Best day of a PJO Fan in the Year).... Percy's 19th birthday... And it will be now 3 years since he had broken his promise to her. On the way Sarah had been watching Annabeth seeing the emotions fly on and off in her eyes wondering what is causing her friend such pain and misery but knowing it had to do something with New York and maybe the date.

o.o.o.o.o.o. School.o.o.o.o.o.o.o

Annabeth looked out the window next to her seat looking bored while Mr Jones went on about the history of Greek life back in the days, her school had Greek mythology as a compulsory subject because the principal was full Greek but what bothered her is that she wasn't sure if he was a real demi-god, like her… "Annabeth, yeewhoo Annabeth answer to question 20 please." Annabeth snapped from her daydream and looked towards the teacher with a sheepish smile but answered

"It's Kronos, the titan of time, father to Zeus, Poseidon and many more." Mr Jones smiled and continued on with the lecture about how Zeus and his siblings had overthrown Kronos and taking control but annabeth couldn't listen to it anymore as it brings back memories of the war she had fought so hard for...

Minutes passed by and suddenly the bell went off four times alerting the school, Mr Jones gasped and started shouting "students this is not a drill head as efficient as you can straight to the hall and don't stop!" everyone started panicking but Annabeth just sat there wondering what was happening until her friend Ryan starting pulling her in the direction of the door,

Annabeth grabbed her bag and followed along without the slightest inch of panic, but was completely annoyed and would take down what is even threatening her school and just relax under her favourite tree and design more blueprints for a distraction from the date and what's on tomorrow.

"Annabeth, why didn't you move?" Ryan growled as he pulled her along grasping her hand tightly heading towards the hall along with everyone else but Annabeth has other plans and starts pulling the other way straight towards the disaster smirking when Ryan started panicking but followed tighten his hand in a death grip knowing he would follow Annabeth anywhere, sure he knew he could get any girl he wanted but when he tried to charm Annabeth she had given him the cold shoulder, but that only made him more determine to have her.

Annabeth looked at him and saw he was curious in what she was doing, giving him a playful smile and told him "I want to find out what we are running from. Don't you?" Ryan chuckled but nodded and pulled her along to a window next to a locked door and peered through and gasped "what are they doing here?"

Annabeth raised an eyebrow and looked through too and narrowed her eyes "the US army..." Annabeth spat the words out in disgust. Ryan looked at annabeth "troubles with the army in the past?" Annabeth rolled her eyes at him "of course not but I still hate how they force people in our age into war that end up getting killed... I've just had enough of war Ryan."

Ryan nodded accepting but cursed under his breath, and pointed to the army "their coming this way Annabeth we have to hurry to the hall now, so we won't get caught and since you see why we are having a alert let's get going now!" grabbing her hand and running in the direction of the hall before the army could catch them...

Both panting harshly, and looked up straight into Mr Allen, the principal whom looked very annoyed but relieved. "You two are late you know? What happen? Why are you late? Did you not listen to the instructions given to come here straight away?" Ryan looked like he was going to piss himself but Annabeth decided to save him "sorry, Mr Allen but I kinda panicked and grabbed Ryan when I saw him and he well got me moving and then we came here... Sorry sir"

The principal studied annabeth closely and grimaced "now's not the time to act like your mother annabeth chase, be wise." Annabeth's eyes widen, swallowed thickly "sorry." Annabeth walked past the principal holding Ryan's hand tightly heading to Mr Jones with a sheepish smile while Mr Jones eyes shown disappointment, and annoyance but annabeth couldn't help but feel guilty knowing that Mr Jones is angry at her.

An hour passed by and people were getting restless, people being Annabeth mainly but suddenly the main doors burst open and soldiers started filing in by the dozen, counted 45 at most. The principal stood in front along with Mr Jones whom had a dark look on his face, and then the soldiers had stopped making two lines while parting to let through four soldiers, Annabeth whispered to Sarah, Daniel and Ryan "that must be the leaders of the unit force here."

Daniel nodded in agreement "the middle one of course is the commander officer... Wonder what rank he is?" Ryan immediately grabbed onto Annabeth's hand making her look upwards with a gentle smile and Ryan looked at her in the corner of his eye giving her a sad smile. I forgot that Ryan's dad was in the army... Annabeth snapped her head toward the leader of the army, whom gave Mr Allen and Mr Jones a two finger salute,

Mr Allen stepped forward wary asking "my name is Jonathan Allen I am principal here and to tell you soldier in seriously pissed off that you had locked my school down without giving me a reason... Which I want right now this instance!" the leader smiled and stepped forward bowing and looked up "my sincerest apologies Mr Allen but I was sent here on code 666, enforcing your school to take safety in your emergency area while I get here and check the buildings for any danger. And the truth is sir the army has been under code red alert for 2 weeks, watching San Francisco for enemies those we…I personally have been seeking out..." Mr Allen growled "and have you found the enemies? And if you have I want my school running back on right now!" the leader looked left at a soldier behind him whom shook his head confirming a negative,

The leader looked back "sorry to inform you Mr Allen but no we haven't and when we have found and searched the perimeter and find any danger, I will not allow this school to function under danger." Mr Allen stepped forward once towering over the leader "what kind of soldiers come up flat with no sight of the enemy? I don't care if you don't give me permission to let this school function I will do what I please with my school and your nothing but just a kid! You know nothing of war son"

The soldiers behind the leader tensed and backed up hesitantly while the leader snarled darkly "you know nothing of what we are facing, Mr Allen so I suggest you shut your mouth and listen to a kid, and I have the force by myself to take you down, so shut it! And listen to my orders and men." Mr Allen took several steps back with fear showing in his eyes when the leader looked like he was about to kill someone but relaxed when a soldier behind him stepped up and touched his shoulder.

The leader sighed harshly and looked at Mr Allen "sorry for acting out of control I should have introduced myself..." Mr Allen chuckled nervously and nodded; the leader took off his helmet, speaking the next few words that made Annabeth's heart stop stone dead...

"I will formally introduce myself. I am Perseus Jackson, of Manhattan and am the Major General of the US Army, former sniper and I have many accreditation's from the President, the General of the Army for my work in the army, I have many medals such as; Combat Infantryman Badge, Distinguished Service Medal, Soldier's Medal, and the Medal of Honor, and as you see sir I do not take war and violence nicely, and I extremely dislike people that regard orders to keep safe just so they can earn more money in their pockets and not worry that there are people in danger... These people we are fighting against are incredibly dangerous so I hope you will listen to the orders that are given. Do you understand me Mr Allen?"

The principal had frozen in fear with wide eyes like everyone else but Mr Jones shook his head and stepped forth "we all understand Mr Jackson, I apologize for our principal and it's an honour to have met you Perseus..." Percy looked towards Mr Jones and studied him for a minute but realisation shown in Percy's eyes and grinned "the honour is mine Mr Jones."

Suddenly the principal snapped out of his daze and nodded quickly to Percy with an apologetic smile. Annabeth's heart started finally started again and she acted immediately, breaking from Ryan's grip and walked pass everyone shoving them if she had too needing to get to the front...

There she stood in front of the school circled around Mr Allen and Jones with Percy Jackson. Anger rushed through Annabeth and without listening to a word anyone had said, she walked right up to Percy and with a raise of her hand, she…back-handed…Perseus…Jackson…across…the…left…cheek…
in front of Everyone.
