I AM BACK

ANNABETH POV

I have been cheating on Percy since he went on that mini-quest. I had to beg my cabin mates to not tell Percy about this relation. Zack and I have been together whenever Percy isn't there, Today, Percy had disappeared again so we decided it was safe to make out.

We were making out when we were interrupted by someone. I turned and saw Percy! Before I could not do anything. Percy ran and kicked Zack away. I could see tears in his eyes. He then took a box out of his pocket and threw it at me. He cried "Annabeth I was going to propose to you and now I find you making out with this idiot!" At this, I started crying. I pleaded "Oh P... P ... P... Percy! Please forgives m... m... me." Percy replied, "No Annabeth no need now." He then just ran away into the woods.

When Percy went Zack shouted "hey hero of Olympus! Where will you go now? The camp hates you! I made it hate you! You are ruined!" I just stared at the ring which Percy threw, it had something written on it, and it said Seaweed Brain + Wise Girl.

I Ran into my cabin did not come out for the whole day. I kept crying all over the mistake I made. I was still thinking how was I a daughter of Athena? The next day my brothers told me that Chiron was calling for me. I wiped my tears and went to the Chiron. He told me the gods had called for the campers.

We went there to know that Percy had been disappeared since he got to know about me and Zack. I felt guilty. Zeus called iris and she showed them what happened to Percy. The gods were very angry at Zack. They decided to make him immortal. I was quite shocked but apparently, I hadn't heard the full punishment which was that Zack had to serve Poseidon on seas for years. This way Poseidon had all rights to torture Zack to his fullest. Zack's immortality would be taken away once he was freed from his slavery at Poseidon's.

TIME SKIP: 5 YEARS

It has been 5 years since Percy disappeared. I rarely talk to anyone since Percy's death. I am forced to believe that he died. Zack came back a few days, He tried picking on me again but I ignored him.

We all believed that he would be better after the punishment, but..... After all, a cheetah cannot wash out its spots.

He just came back and now he is trying to boss around. Many of the campers ignored him, however, his usual followers from the Ares cabin came back to his aid. He had started to flirt with some Aphrodite girls and soon was in a relationship with Drew Tanaka. I was disgusted to see this. How could any girl stand this person?

I ran into my cabin as quickly as possible as I would have to see the Poseidon cabin which will remind me of Percy. I tried to sleep but then I heard a noise outside.

A new demigod.

I rushed towards the gates to see a girl fighting the 3 furies at once! I called for help, took out my Drakon Blade sword, and ran to battle. But as I reached for aid, the furies were already retreating and they were quite wet.

The girl was around 7 years old and was hurt. She had sea-green eyes like Percy. Like Percy. Thinking about Percy made me teary. She also had jet black hair tied to a ponytail. She smelled of the sea and had a Mediterranean complexion.

I took her inside to the infirmary. She told me her name was Olivia. As soon as Olivia was healed, I took her to Chiron. He explained to her about the gods and then a sea-green trident appeared over Olivia's head.

And then every single camper bowed and Chiron cried "Hail Olivia, Daughter of Poseidon, Earthshaker, Stormbringer, and Father of Horses. Chiron told me to take Olivia to her cabin. I reluctantly took Olivia to cabin 3. She reached the cabin she saw the memoirs of Percy and asked me questions about him.

I spend the rest of the day telling her about Percy's adventure. I left her in the room at night and went back to my room with a faint smile. Olivia had forgiven me for what I did with Percy. I felt better.

I knew it wasn't Percy who had forgiven me but still I felt better since at least Percy's sister had forgiven me.

The next day Nico came back from the underworld. He still was trying to find Percy in the underworld. Today he came back and said that Percy was definitely alive as his soul was nowhere to be found.

I felt a bit more cheerful that day. I went to Olympus. I observed that the gods were staring at me muttering things. I ignored them.

Then I heard a few talks about Percy. Ignoring them. I continued to work. I saw Poseidon looking joyful. I was confused. His son is missing and he is happy? After work, I went back to camp.

I wondered what happened to the gods and why were they acting so strangely. Why was Poseidon acting so strange?

I told Chiron about it. He hesitated and then said "no need for you to know about godly stuff. I think you should just go and do your border patrol with your cabin." And with this, he left. I understood one thing that Chiron knew something and he did not want to tell me about it.
