Slowly some of the anger inside Percy was chipped away, "Annabeth, you're my friend, and you mean a lot to me. And I get that you wanted to protect me….but I can't run away from this."
Annabeth lowered her head as tears rolled down her face. Percy wanted to comfort his friend, but he was still angry at her. So he did the only thing he could, he walked away.
Percy walked across camp running into people left and right. Most tried talking to him, but Percy wasn't in the mood. He felt betrayed, Chiron, Grover, Luke, Annabeth, Michael, Nina, the Stoll brothers, Clarisse, Peter those were just a few of Percy's friends around here, they were once the reason Percy felt this place to be home.
But now… Percy couldn't take it. The camp just felt so fake, for once Percy saw camp as something other than a safe haven for him. It wasn't a place for the gods to keep their children safe, no, it was a place to raise weapons.
Percy rejected Luke's way of thinking before, he said that the only reason the God's cared for them was because they were nothing more than tools. Percy didn't believe him then, he was to stupid to understand.
Percy felt helpless, before he always had a chance, a chance to get it right, to save the day at the last moment. But now, after finding out that he was always meant to die, it just seemed so useless.
What was the point in leveling up if he would die in the end? What was the point of trying new things if he was going to die before he does anything with that knowledge?
Percy looked at the setting sun, 'maybe….maybe I should have gone with Luke.'
Percy shook his head, 'no, no! That's crazy talk! Just because my life sucks doesn't mean I have to basically become an evil dictators bitch!'
Percy sighed, he needed to talk to his dad. Percy walked to the beach and made a mist with his moisture control. A rainbow was formed with the last rays of the sun as Percy made a call to his dad.
He waited for a few minutes and then for ten before Percy gave up. 'He must still be in that meeting,' Percy said to himself as the sun finally set.
He needed to get out of here, camp just reminded him of his oncoming death. He needed leave, just go away for sometime. Maybe his mom's place….yeah, that sounded right.
Percy zoomed back to his cabin and quickly checked around for anything he might have left behind. He already had everything he needed in his inventory, the only thing he left behind in the cabin were two sets of old cloths and a few books.
Percy quickly write down a note explaining his actions and then quickly left his cabin walking towards Thalia's tree. He didn't even bother to say goodbye to his friends, he was sure they would get the message he left.
As Percy walked to the tree he looked up at the Golden Fleece, or at least this half of it. This was a mark of Percy's failure, if he had only succeeded in stealing the Fleece back maybe Kronos would not have been fully formed. Maybe the prophecy wouldn't have come true.
"Why can't it be someone else?" Percy sighed as he touched the trunk of the tree, "why do I have to die?"
CREAK!
Percy jumped back as the wood in the tree started to move. Percy watched in amazement as slowly the truck split open causing a person to fall out of the tree. Percy grab the person before they hit the ground and slowly pulled them out of the tree before the tree closed up again.
The person who fell out of the tree was a girl. She had spiky shoulder length hair with blue streaks going along the side. She had dark eyeliner around her eyes and freckles around her nose. She was tall, taller than Percy with her long slender legs and muscular build. She wore a black leather jacket on top of a black shirt which featured a band called Green Day. She wore a bracelet around her wrist and several chains along her hands giving off a very punkish look.
Percy looked at the name above the mystery girl's head and was shocked beyond belief;
Thalia Grace, Daughter of Zeus
Lv- 25
Percy blinked, 'you have got to be kidding me.'
"I also wish for a million dollars and a lightsaber," Percy out loud. He waited a few minutes but nothing happened, "huh, guess that only works once."
Percy looked down at his arms at a girl who was thought to be dead. Two of his friends had seen her die first hand, yet here she was. Percy pressed his fingers next to her neck and felt a pulse, it was faint but there.
Percy lifted Thalia up carrying her like a bride. 'What caused this?' Percy wondered looking at the tree when suddenly his eyes were drawn to the Fleece, 'Of course! If that thing could bring Kronos back, who was in a million pieces, then Thalia should be easy.'
Percy walked as fast as he could towards the Big House, he didn't want to hurt her by running to fast. While walking Percy quickly Observed her to get a feel of what she was made off;
Thalia Grace, Protector of camp Half-blood
Lv- 25
HP: 150/1,500
MP: 625/625
Race- Demigod
Str-12
Vit-22
Dex-28
Int-15
Wis-9
Luc-23
The greek demigoddess of Zeus, Thalia had run away from home at a very young age due to a fight with her mom and the disappearance of her baby brother Jason. She traveled with Luke and Annabeth for a long time becoming more and more powerful. She later performed the ultimate sacrifice by giving her life to save Grover, Annabeth and Luke's. Zeus took pity on her and turned her into a tree forming a barrier around camp protecting the people she cared for.
Likes: Annabeth, Luke, Jason, Being in charge
Dislikes: Heights, Zeus, her mother, Cyclops
She doesn't know Percy
She is unconcious
Percy was impressed, she had a unique title all for herself, something which Percy has never seen before in a demigod. Usually their titles was always a statement of who they were, like daughter of this or son of that. For somebody to gain a title other than that...it would mean that Thalia sees herself more of the camp's protector than the daughter of Zeus.
He took her into the Big House and quickly up stairs to the Med Bay. "Is anyone here?!" Percy yelled out the moment he entered the room.
"Epp!" Percy heard a soft and surprised voice say.
He turned and saw only one person in the entire room, a girl with bushy brown hair and bright sky blue eyes. Percy looked at the title above her head;
Nancy Verie, Daughter of Apollo
Lv- 19
"Nancy right?" Percy asked as he put Thalia on the closets bed.
"Ah-ah, yeah, how did you know?" The daughter of Apollo stammered out.
