I know I know. That you want to know how Percy and Annabeth and the rest are going to meet after 10,000 something years, and your still probably confused about the whole Percy lost his memory and Luke and Zoe coming back from the dead thing , but Like i said. All in good time, but to understand the Percy now, Your going to have to understand the Percy from 10,000 years ago.

Yeah, I know you already do but what I mean is understand what happened to him after he was betrayed and he came back from tartarus a second time and Disowned and all that Jazz.
So it's time you took a trip down memory Lane. I wasn't born at that time. Bummer. So I only heard stories and my job is to Tell them.

Trip Down Memory Lane.
2,000 years after he was betrayed and cast in to Tartarus.
Place: Canada

Percy

It's cold. I knew Canada was cold but not this cold. I guess I needed this since I've been in Tarturs for 2,000 years, I barely managed to escape. The heat was so intense down there, I didn't think I would be able feel the cold again. It feels so nice. The sun is amazing it's good to be in day light again.

I sat on the bench watching people pass by  walking to their destinations and talking to each other, they looked so happy it made me happy. They don't have to worry about war or monsters they just live their normal day, something alot of people take for granted.
I've been in Canada for about a couple of months,  working two  part time jobs at a nearby coffee shop and a grocery store to earn some money. I know I know, I come out of Tarturs and the first thing I do is get a job or two.  sounds pretty weird, but with everyone thinking I'm dead and I in Tarturs rotting. I guess thats the only thing I can do, I survived torture for 2,000 years and when I escape I die just because of Hunger. Um. . . No thankyou.

I decided it was already time for me to get to work.

"Percy my man. Not late as usual."

Ben gave me a pat on the back. A 30 year old guy who has long brown hair in a pony tail, and a well built body. He looked like he's been lifting weights since he was a child, I'm pretty well built but put me next to this guy and I'll look scrawny. Well not as Scrawny as Leo. I smiled at the though of Leo.  Then I frowned. Leo. I miss him. Infact I miss everybody, but they are the reason for everything.

I pushed my thought aside and started working. My job wasn't pretty difficult, Infact these past two months are kind of normal, I always expect to get jumped at or attacked by monsters when I walk home at night, or get kidnapped or see the fates cutting string for the next prophecy, but since I was announced "dead" since HE informed me.  my life been kind of .  . . mediocre.  Not that there is anything wrong with being mediocre, I'm just so used to be given high expectations. Or held high. 

"Yo percy you gonna close the shop"  Ben yells.

I clean a few tables, not looking up I yell. 
    "Ya, I will. I'm going to do over time "

I hear Ben sigh
"You over work yourself  Percy."

I looked at him.

"I need the money B."  I say using his nickname.

"I told you not to call me that."

"Yeah. Sure whatever you say B."

  Ben put stuff in his bag.

"Just get home before midnight or I'm locking the door."  Ben ordered  then left.

I live with  Ben in an Apartment  so he hates it when I don't get home before twelve PM. He treats me like a kid thinking, that a 17 year old like me,  should be going to school and thinking about college. I really want to say to him: Bro your 2,000 years younger than me. 

     I closed up the coffee shop by 11:30 so that I can get home at 12.  I rode my bike that I "borrowed" all the way home.  I found entered and saw that Ben's light was on.  I walked into the kitchen and saw him smoking.

I sighed.

Smoke came out of his mouth he pointed to the microwave and I instantly knew that my  cup of microwaved noodles was in their. 
I sat infront of him as I ate my noodles. I looked him.
Smoke came out of his mouth again.
    "This is my 5th  time trying to quit."  He says after a long silence.  He looked at himself in sadness.

"I saw a kid today from work, about this high." He said using his hand. 

"She was nice and Very cheerfull. " he puffed smoke again.
"Like my daughter."  

Ben's wife had a daughter. After he finished college he got married to an amazing woman then.  they had there daughter 3 years later, the wife and the daughter  were murdered. Everytime he sees something or someone or hears something or someone, it reminds him of of his wife and daughter and the future that they never had together. He told me his story and he has been trying to move on. I wish I could help him.

      He looked at me obviously taking the silence i gave him seriously.
"Aren't  you supposed to be in bed. Get your A** to bed."

"Hey" i said "this book dosen't  allow characters to cuss."

He grumbled "that's why it's censored Dumb A** now get to bed before I stick this cigarette where it hurts"

"Ok. Ok. I'm going. I hope you feel better. "  I headed into my room and collapsed on my bed. No matter how many  it never gets old,  the feeling of calmness and happiness of sleeping  in a real bed eating real food is something  I knew I would never take for granted.

The next day I woke up late. It was about 11:30 am when I woke, it was my day off. I took a shower got dressed and went to the kitchen.

I saw B cooking and he looked like he was back to his normal self. The food smelt nice. 
He put it on the counter.

"Eat up" he says as then he turns away.

"Thanks" I say.
      
Ben had his back  turned away from me.

"Hey Percy. If it's money you want? I know where to get it."

He turns around and places his hands on the table, looking straight at me not letting his gaze leave mine. He smirks.

"If your up to it."
