After the USJ disaster, Percy and Jirō left to go to America to get him a new arm from the Hephaestus Cabin. He dropped off Jirō with his mother after getting a scolding for putting himself in danger yet again to save the one's he cares about.
He soon found himself getting tackled by the entire camp when he had returned. His reunion with Chiron had been emotional. However, reunion with Thalia and the hunters had been the most violent. Thalia had thrown several punches at him, which he blocked with a single finger. Which only pissed her off more.
"HOW DARE YOU COME BACK HERE WITH ONLY ONE ARM JACKSON!!"
"I SHOULD KILL YOU WHERE YOU STAND!" Thalia didn't realize that she was crying until Percy stopped in front of her and wiped the tears from her eyes with his one good arm.
"I lost it after a Hell hound bit my arm, making it useless. That wouldn't have happened if the USJ where I was supposed to be training to be a hero, wasn't attacked by a literal cloud of purple mist, a dumber version of Cell from five years ago and a brat who thinks that he can get anything he wants. Like trying to kill my classmates and two of my teachers. I did what I did because Kronos is the only one who could have brought back the Minotaur just to fight me." He lifted her chin and wiped her tears. "I did what I did to protect my classmates and my teachers. Do I regret what I did? No I don't, and I would do it again if I could. But right now, I need to get to the Hephaestus cabin so they can start working on a new arm for me so I can get back to being a hero."
Thalia sniffled and hugged him tightly, as she silently agreed with what he said. She then looked into his eyes and asked with a smirk, "Who's the girl?" Percy's eyes widened for a second before understanding what she was asking.
"I'll tell you once we're in private. I promise, I'll meet you at my cabin once I'm done with getting my new arm straightened out." She nodded again and let go of him.
TIME SKIP TO POST SPORTS FESTIVAL
After the Sports Festival, it was time for the class to choose internships and hero names. Seeing as Percy had won the whole thing with Gohan coming in second and Bakugo and Todoroki coming in tied at third, the four boys had the most offers.
Keeping with the theme of a Greek warrior, Percy decided his name would be....... Riptide. It was too easy, and besides, the children of Poseidon aren't known for picking good names in general.
As he was walking to lunch with Gohan, Uraraka, Midoriya, and Jirō, he was deep in thought about which hero he should intern with. Until he realized that Gohan was going to intern with Vegeta.
"Hey Gohan," said boy looked at Percy, "Yeah?" Percy said "You're going with Vegeta right? I got an offer from him as well. You think he'd mind if I joined you?"
Gohan shrugged, "He might not care seeing as you're farther behind on your training than I am and you have to get used to that arm again. But he also might not want to take in another intern. It all depends on his mood. But I'll gladly let you come with me."
Percy smiled in return and went to get lunch. Jirō had been stuck to his side ever since the USJ and he honestly could not give any less of a damn. If she was by his side then he knew she was safe and that's all that mattered to him. He was still getting used to the new arm that the Hephaestus cabin had made for him.
After lunch, they were sent off to their internships. Aizawa was checking on them, ensuring that they had everything with them. Reminding them, that while they had their costumes with them, they weren't allowed to wear them yet. Percy hugged Jirō tightly, "You be safe ok? IM me if you're in trouble and you can't get out safely or if Death Arms is incapacitated. I'll be there as fast as I can." Percy worriedly told Jirō, not knowing how he would cope without her by his side constantly.
