Thank you Reviewers, I know it may not seem like it-but they help a lot :D

Third Person:

Percy's mother is a very persistent woman. She's the most gentle and beautiful woman in the world sure, but you do not want to make her mad.

With her tone filled with rage, her yelling turning into a jumble of words. It took a hand from Paul on her shoulder to get her to finally calm down. Then she broke down, tears tracing down her cheeks and a low sob escaping her mouth. Her son took the chance to rap his arms around her; her face dampening his shirt with dribble and salty tears.

"Mom we are going to be fine. I just really need to get away for a little while." Percy's soothing voice was soft as he embraced his mom in a loving hug. His eyes were staring blankly into her mess of graying brown hair; he was trying to remember what she looked like.

"Percy, you're my little baby." She paused taking many sucks of air in. "You're my only son and you want me to let you wander helplessly into what was it? Freaking Oregon or whatever."(That came out like I hate Oregon but I don't-sorry) She was back to yelling again and from the way she was out of her always calm attitude she was really upset. Ever since the day Olympus was saved and Percy told Sally that he was blind she became really possessive over her son.

"Ma, I'm not helpless. Nico and I just need to take a break away from camp." His voice cracked mid way through his reply and he began to slowly cry too.

"All the way across the Country?" She was desperately grasping his shirt as if it would help keep him there in New York. "Why can't you just stay here? It will be like the old days, us sticking together as a family."

"Mom you know with two children of the big three, we would be lucky to last a day monster free." He was silently begging her to stop crying, it was breaking his heart to hurt her like this.

"Sally, he's a big kid now. He saved the Greek gods for Pete's sake; he has to go off alone some time." Paul was probably the best step dad Percy could ask for.

"He's blind Paul!" she screamed. "How is he supposed to 'go off alone' when he can't even see?" that hurt Percy a little but he knew she was just upset. A long silence filled the apartment room of the Blofis residence.

"Mrs. Blofis? I'll stick with him the whole time, nothing can come past us. We will practice fighting everyday and we'll maybe even go to school too. Just please let us go, please?" Nico was the one to break the silence. The words he spoke were very un-nico-like, he must really want to leave.

"How long would you be gone?" Well Sally must have believed that Nico could protect Percy.

"Only like a year or so." Sally gulped a sob down. "But we will iris message every week and nothing bad ever happens in Oregon anyway." Percy was desperate to keep his mom safe by leaving.

"Why Oregon anyway?" Paul questioned.

"It's the farthest away from camp; we just really want to leave all the Greek stuff behind." Percy replied.

"And farther from you own mom." Sally started crying again. "A whole year Percy, that's a long time."

"I know mom, you think I wouldn't miss you." The son of Poseidon was crying hard now. "Please mom, this is what I want."

After hours of countless remarks back and forth between mother and son Sally finally gave in, on the condition that he Iris message her every week and that she pay for them to get there and pay for a house for them to live them much to Percy's dismay. 'You can barely keep this house as it is' Percy would say but Sally wouldn't budge from her conditions.

The next day Percy and Nico were sent on the next train to Salem, Oregon.

Skip forward a couple weeks to Oregon.

The tip of the sword flew inches by Nico's face making the son of Hades nearly pee himself.

"Watch it Percy, You nearly killed me again." Nico whined.

"That is the point of fighting with real swords isn't it?" Percy sensed the Stygian Iron sword of his dueling partner come towards him and ducked down. Percy realized Nico probably couldn't hear what he had said but was too into the battle to go write it down.

"I thought blind people were supposed to, you know not see things." Nico muttered.

Percy laughed and focused on the water inside Nico's blood. Percy was indeed blind and could only see blackness wherever he went, but recently the son of Poseidon realized that if he thought hard enough all water would light up in his blackness. Percy only focused on animals and people so whenever he 'saw' someone walk by it was like a bright white figure moving in a world of blackness. The first time Percy focused on a guy driving he started freaking out with a person basically soaring down the blackness.

A couple of days ago the son of Poseidon was playing around with riptide and he could feel the metal. Yah everyone can feel and touch metal, but even several feet away Percy could sense exactly where the sword was and how it was positioned. That was the only way he could fight, Percy could sense where his cousin's attack would be. His hypothesis was that since his dad was 'the earth shaker' he had control over earth stuff- metal and other weapons equal earth stuff. This skill does drain some energy though.

Their training soon found an end and they started their school work. With the opportunity to skip out on school the boys' immediately took it but Sally insisted they do work at their 'house'. The place the two cousins lived was an old shack with only one room and a bathroom, it wasn't much but it was better than sleeping outside.

Percy started saying words and Nico tried to read his lips, and Nico was picking up fast.

"I, I smell? I smell like…like dead poop? I smell like dead poop? Is that what you said?" Nico asked staring at Percy's mouth quizzically.

Percy grinned his signature lop sided grin and nodded.

"That doesn't even make sense dude. Poop isn't alive, I don't know what you've been eating but poop is definitely not supposed to be alive, and that means it can't be dead either. Kelp head." Nico muttered and laughed at his cousin's stupidity.

"Well sorry death head. But that burrito we ate the other night did not sound nice in the bathroom." He laughed.

"Oh my gods I understood what you said. You said something about a burrito and going to the bathroom, right?" Percy smiled at his friend and nodded. Nico fist pumped the air and did a victory dance.

I know this chapter is pretty boring, but it's just a filler chapter-it had to be done.

I was searching fanfiction and it came to my attention that no one has ever done a Rachel and Annabeth AU sisterly story. I know people don't like Rachel, but she seemed pretty cool in the book-I don't get why people don't like her. So if someone would please write something like that I would definitely read it-it would be really original and fun.
