Chapter One

Okay, this is going to be my version of how Blood of Olympus ended, okie dokie. Good, good. Just...um...well...don't be weird, okay? Okay. Now to the beginning of this little  story, my lovely readers.

Chapter One: At Camp Half-Blood.

Point of view: Perseus Jackson

Dead. Dead. Dead. They're all dead. Every last one of them. The mortals I cared for. The demigods I befriended. The gods are concerned, but I don't really understand why. Ares keeps looking at me and smiling when I come up for a monthly meeting with the gods. All I do is grieve and train. Train and grieve. Train who? The surviving twenty-three demigods, not including me. So that's twenty-four. Yippee. Out of over at least three hundred who fought in the war, which meant all the demigods we had, only twenty-four of us survived. Thirteen are Roman and eleven are Greek.

I am the last of the Seven of the prophecy. I alone survived after killing Gaea. The rage overtook me and I killed her after losing all my friends. I went into battle already burdened wit hsadness because Poseidon told me that he found Sally and Paul dead. I used battle to vent my grief and anger and i came out scarred for life. I died back there. The only time I can not stop seeing the memories constantly swimming in front of my eyes is when I am engaged in battle. War is my only relief. I am able to be Percy Jackson again instead just the 'Mentor of Swords' here at camp.

We changed the name from Camp Half-Blood and Camp Jupiter to Camp Demigod. Stupid I know, but we were all lost in our grief. Me the most. I sigh. The gods granted me three wishes. I asked that New Rome, and the two camps be merged together physically instead of just by the people withing them and the border around the Greek camp would still be around the conjoined camp. I didn't name it, Zeus did.

Artemis lost all of her Hunters. Every one of them. She doesn't know how to find an more without her lieutenant or the other newer Hunters. She doesn't know how to look in cities. She hasn't even tried.

List of the dead? Annabeth, Jason, Leo, Hazel, Frank, Piper, Nico, Thalia, Clarisse, Chris, Travis, Connor, Reyna, Octavian, Rachel, all of the Apollo cabin, all of the Aphrodite cabin, all of Athena's children, all of the Hecate cabin, pretty much all the cabins are empty except for Hephaestus, Poseidon, Ares, Demeter, Hypnos, and a couple of other cabins. No new campers come in because the monsters are almost all gone or in hiding. All I see are new faces. The only one I even remember fom before is the only Hephaestus kid left alive. That would be a girl named Myra. Barely knew her, but I don't talk to her at all anyway. She too is in grieving, but she's better off than I am. The Romans follow me around constantly because I'm 'honorable and Roman-like.'

Today I go to Olympus to see what the gods want from me. They were more urgent than the other times. Its been around...four months? Yup. Cause I've only been up there five times. Once for my wishes and the other four for my 'check-ups,' as they like to call them.

My other two wishes?

One was immortality, full immortality. So I could defend the remaining demigods.

The last?

That my parents be put in the Isle of the Blest. Because the one who killed them, was Polybotes. He killed them as the payment to Gaea for losing against his mortal enemy's favorite son. Woohoo! Found that out before I killed him again. Enjoyed that one. If he ever rises again. Every time he rises, I'll kill him. I'll enjoy it more every time. Revenge for a lifetime. Another reason I asked for full immortality.

Not to mention Poseidon named me a 'Prince of the Sea.' I don't want power, but Triton insisted that after all I'd been through that Poseidon grant me this title. Don't ask me why Triton of all people, would want me to be his co-prince. It weirds me out. I think he hates me, but he delared me his brother after he saw me 'prove myself' in battle on the field. Yup, so now I hang out with him. It's less weird than before and I've started calling him brother, but I'm getting used to it. He fusses over me more than the gods do.

Amphitrite treats me like her son and along with Triton, pleaded for me to become a prince. So, she fusses worse than Triton. She reminds me of Sally, but I don't tell her that. i love her like a mother, she really is nice. I overheard her talking to father about my sanity.

I'm not insane, I'm stuck in this grieving process after losing everyone but Poseidon and my new family. I never sleep. Part of my wish for immortality. Never sleeping, so I could never let threats in at night. Another reason the Romans always follow me around. The only time I've slept since then is when the gods put me to sleep so Apollo can examine me. That was once and I punched the idiot who made me have nightmares, the yare worse than the memories. Figured that one out when I slept on the Argo II on the way home. I asked for normalcy after the battle, so I sailed alone back to Olympus. Stayed awake for weeks before  collapsed on the throne room floor. The 'idiot' was Zeus. Once I explained he forgave me and told me he wouldn't do it again. He didn't swear on the Styx though, which concerns me.

Since no Athena children are left alive, I'm the tactical master and I'm the smartest one when it comes to war and the demigod life. All the campers that are left came just before the battle happened a week later. The Romans didn't even have their one year of service marks or their probation tablets. So, that means I'm praetor of New Rome and all that other leader junk for the Greeks and Romans. No one ever argues with me, I eat when my stupid doctor tells me to, since I don't sleep, I'm monitored on my thoughts because everyone thinks I'll make myself fade, and everyone always bows in my presence which annoys me to Hades. My 'doctor' is a Roman kid who was trained by an Apollo Roman kid who died in the first half an hour of the battle defending Reyna. Took a sword to the neck and got his head chopped off. This Roman kid is a descendant of the Roman aspect of Apollo. he is one year younger than I am and won't take my constant 'go aways' for an answer. I just roam the borders, kill any monster I sense, and sometimes I'll go to the graves of my parents in Manhattan.

The other graves are in New Rome. But not in the original graveyard, a graveyard I myself built. I studied architecture like a nutjob for a month and it took me a matter of a week to build the perfect one for my fallen friends and family. Athena told me I did such a wonderful job that she said that I could come to her library in her palace on Olympus if I ever want to continue my studies of creation. I thanked her and after my meeting, I'm going and I'm spending a week in that place. Secluded in the darkest corner I can find and reading my butt off so I can get my mind off things. Studying does that. All her books are in Greek so my stupid dyslexia won't get in my way.

I stand in front of the graves of the Fallen. This graveyard is for the ones that died in the second Giant War. So, no one else could be buried here. I'm normally the only one brave enough to come in besides my doctor, who comes to Olympus with me and he's late. He meets me here every time and I have to teleport us to the throne room. I can only teleport there and my father's palace if you are wondering. The gods said it was easier than walking to New York anytime they called upon me. I would never drive any kind of vehicle unless it was a boat. I walk, run, jog, or sprint. Nothing more, nothing less. I don't use any form of transportation other than that. You get stuck on a quest with me, you are on foot or in water. End of story.

I kneel in front of the graves and say, "You're home. I'm sorry, rest in peace."  I say it every time and I will keep doing it. Annabeth's swiring gray eyes and her soft, cold hand carressing my face as she died from Gaea's earth grip crushing her internal organs. Jason's body getting ripped in half because he defended his father from Porphyrion and stabbed the Giant through the heart for Zeus to strike him with fatal lightning. Piper as her head went rolling at the feet of Gaea. Leo flaming up to help Hazel and Nico with the monsters that surrounded them and dying, jumping in front of the two siblings to keep them from getting hit with sharp Earthborn projectiles. Burning every monster withing thirty feet of him to death and sending them to Tartarus. Hazel going on a rampage, ending with her dying at the feet of Ephialtes and Otis. Nico as he used to much power defending a legion of Roman soldiers being held back from the fight and ultimately dying from overuse of his soul. Frank burning his stick so that the flames of life would kill off his father's bane. Reyna defending the unconscious gods from any harm, only to be overtaken by Laistrygonian giants and managing to kill three of the fifteen that swarmed her. Thalia striking down Porphyrion with her father and Gration with Artemis. Gration killed her. He incinerated her and with Thalia's lightning being just as fatal as her father's was, Artemis escaped Gration's grasp and died the same way Thalia did, but by the power of the moon he was burned to ashes. The Hunters were killed by Gaea when she made them suffocate when she sunk them into the ground, only to come updead, in front of their mistress's eyes. Clarisse died with Chris because they were sacrificed during the battle to awaken Gaea. The rest died by Giants or monsters eating them alive or fatal wounds being inflicted upon them. I killed Gaea with the power of the sea and I stabbed her through the heart to make sure she would go back into an eternal slumber. She died by storm.

I feel a hand touch my shoulder and I know it's my doctor. "You alright, Perseus?" The doctor asks.

"You're late." Is all I say. I grab his shoulder and flash us into the throne room on Olympus.

The gods are already there. "You're early." Athena smiles at me.

"I thought I was late, I guess you're off the hook then, Clarence." I say to the doctor.

"Shut up, Perseus." Clarence says and pushes up his glasses.

"It's Percy. I'll gut you if you call me by my full name again." I say in a deadly serious tone.

"Why do you not like your full name, Perseus?" Clarence asks, unafraid. I draw my sheathed sword and am about to do what I promised when I feel restraining hands wrap around my arms.

"Let go of me, Artemis!" I yell at the goddess.

"Calm down Percy. Just answer your doctor." Artemis replies in a gentle tone.

"Fine. Because Mother Earth  likes to call me that and so do all of the enemies of a half-blood. Happy now?" I growl.

"Very good, Perseus." Clarence says and writes it down on his stupid medical clipboard. It hold my papers for my 'recovery.'

"So, you want to be my enemy do you?" I ask visciously.

"Not at all, Lord Perseus. I only wish to be respectful and use your real name." Clarence answers, scribbling down notes in Ancient Greek. I read them, 'Anger issues over name. Takes things too seriously.'

"What the Hades is that supposed to mean?! Write it in English next time if you don' twant me reading it, doctor." I spit at him venomously.

"What makes you happy, Perseus." Clarence continues to ask me questions.

"The thought of burning you alive if you call me that again." I retort.

"What really makes you happy?" Artemis tries.

"The blood of my enemies on my blade, war, battle, the death of those who made me who I am today." I answer Artemis.

"That it what I like to hear." Ares says, grinning at me.

"That's wonderful cousin." I roll my eyes and he grins even more.

"Let him go sister, come here Percy." Ares tells Artemis and I.

"He'll go on a rampage if I let him go now. His anger is too high." Artemis argues.

"Dam right I will. I assume you get that reference? If not, I'll explain it later." I tell Artemis.

"I got it." Athena raises her hand.

I laugh. "Of course you would. You hear every word and how it is used because it is part of your domain of knowledge. Which reminds me, am I still allowed to come after the meeting?"

"Of course. I'm glad you are interested in learning. The Ancient Greek section is ready for your use, as is the Latin section, since you've unlocked that side of your brain." Athena giggles at her coment.

"Thank you, Lady Athena." I smile at her.

"Bring him to me then, sister." Ares says after Athena is done.

"What do you want with Percy?" Artemis asks.

"I have a proposition for the young hero. I am amsed by him greatly." Ares says with a huge smile.

"Oh great. The god of frigging war wants me to do something for him. Shocker." I say sarcastically and roll my eyes.

"More like I want you to do something for the both of us. You might find it shocking to be truthful." Ares tells me.

"Well tell me then, it's not like I can kill any of you unless you severely make my anger burst. I won't hurt Lady Artemis because she is one who actually knows how I'm feeling." I reply.

"Normally one would kneel, but seeing as how you're having a difficult time to not fidget, it will have to do." Ares sighs with a great huff.

"Blame Clarence, not me. He's the one who's ticking me off at the moment. Stupid name. What luck it brought me. Yeah, cause that totally worked. Still love you mom. Always have, always will." I tell the ground.

I see Clarence writing stuff down, still in Greek. "Really? You write that down. I'm not 'clinically insane.' I'm grieving forever, just like I told you last week. And the week before thhat, and the week before that, and then the day before that, and so on. You seriously need to take some classes from Hermes on deceit." I roll my eyes again.

"Perseus, why do you talk to the floor when you speak about your mother?" Clarence asks.

"Isn't it obvious you idiot? She's dead. Never coming back. Dead, dead, dead. She's downwards, not upwards. So I look at the ground, not the sky. If she was in the stars, I would gladly tell it to the sky, kid. Stop making my anger at you grow or I'll murder you in your sleep." I tell him.

"You are duty bound with your immortality and oaths never to harm another demigod unless he harms you first." Clarence sighs.

"Oh, the answer to that is simple. You are harming me. Emotionally dummy. Mr. Doctor doesn't know all the sides of pain now does he?" I snarl at him. "I don't carewho you lost. You didn't lose as much as I did. I lost everyone I even knew or glanced at. You lost less than that. You don't have the scared looks, the avoiding of your presence, the hole that is never filled, but being slowly drained. I've lost all emotion other than anger, boy. Ask me about my problems when you've lost everything!" I finally snapped and started cursing him in Ancient Greek and Latin.

Artemis looked at Zeus and he nods. "If you even think about putting me to sleep, I will make you fade!" I scream at them.

Then I feel darkness surround me and my body slumps into Artemis's arms.
