***********

Percy ran away from the camp, towards the beach, that's the only place he thought would comfort him. He couldn't take in what he saw in the Iris image, Annabeth was with some other guy

she did cheat on him.

Now he wished, he had listened to the goddess but the damage was done and nothing could change that.

As he ran, tears streamed down his face, he didn't care if the entire camp was looking at him, the only thing that mattered was ANABETH HAS CHEATED ON HIM.

PERCY

I couldn't controls my tears, they just seemed to flow endlessly, while I ran through the camp towards the beach. I loved her with every fibre in my body. I would've done anything to protect her, even jump into the tartarus but still she cheated on me. It was even more painful to know that she didn't felt the same for me as I felt for her, after all that we've been through together.

As I reached the shores, I threw myself in the water and willed it to take me deeper into it. I went down to the sea bed and started crying, all the tears and emotions that I was trying to hold back, flooded out.

After who knows how long, I got up, tears still streaming down my face but I was trying very hard to hold them back.
Then a sudden thought occurred to me, being the son of poseidon and all, can I even control the tears. I wondered.

Third person

He scolded himself for bringing up this stupid thought, and then willed the water to take him to the shore.

When he landed on the beach, the landscape was changed almost unrecognisable.

Trees were ripped off from the ground, which were completely normal when he went into the sea, gallons of water had made a swamp in the forest around him, the leaves, twigs and branches of the trees were scattered around him like hit by a storm. And this made Percy wonder for how long was he gone? Weeks? Months? maybe

He pushed the thought aside and ran towards the camp, thinking they might be in danger.

Percy

I saw the camp from distance and could hear the unusual sounds of the campers, so naturally, I uncapped riptide and rushed towards them.

What I saw made me gasp, the newly constructed Cabins were grounded and most of the camp's possessions were scattered around, like hit by storm and a earthquake both at the same time.

I was relieved to know it was the same day on which I had left. Everyone was running here and there trying to take the  injured to the infirmary.

That was when Thalia saw me and started towards be me, worry clear on her face, but she stopped dead halfway through and looked at me like I've grown horns or something.
She just stared at me including the other campers.

"What?" I asked, as everyone was now looking at me.

" Pe..Percy" Thalia said.

I scanned my surrounding to see what she meant but nothing!, then I saw myself, sure enough, a blue-green aura was surrounding me. What was it?

"I.. I don't know!" I said, not able to form the words properly. I actually didn't know what was happening and it has taken me aback as much as the others.

It might be some sort of trick played by a God. I thought.

That was when the hunters approached, saving me from further interrogation.

Chiron was there too, in a serious discussion with Artemis, the maiden goddess of moon. They all walked toward me with a frown on their face.

"Percy! My child" Chiron said " thank the gods! You're safe!"And hugged me, he was now in his horse form and I'm sure his hug would've made Tyson jealous.

"Percy, we know about what Annabeth did" Chiron continued " But how did you do it?" He asked

" I did what?" I asked equally confused as everyone else.

"Look around you, my child" he suggested, and now I saw what he meant.

The camp was almost destroyed, but it was impossible! Nothing can penetrate the camp border without permission, not even natural calamities but here I was, standing in it's half destroyed version.

" I- uh.. I have no idea" I said honestly.

I looked at Artemis for some explanation but she just stood there, intensely gazing at me, like she was coming to a conclusion. Her silver eyes were shining in the moonlight.

She said after a while,

" I think Percy has done it! Knowing or unknowingly he has unleashed his true powers." Artemis said.

" But milady, I didn't do anything, how can you blame me?" I asked trying not to shout, tears started streaming down my face. In reality I didn't do anything.

" I know Percy, but you've unleashed the power which can control all the major elements of the earth" Artemis said with a soft voice,  like she could understand me " it is only unleashed when a very powerful emotion is released".

And that was when i noticed that the aura surrounding me was fading.

"However, until you learn to control the emotion which unleashed your true powers, everything and everyone around you is in danger!" she said with a sad voice and I realised she has never sounded so despair, like she could compare percy with herself.

How could I be so dumb? She was the maiden goddess for a reason, and ofcourse she can understand my feeling, because she was also cheated by someone!

"Then what should I do milady? As I understand, I shouldn't live in the camp..... or in my moms' or anywhere near the mortals."
I said with a pained expression on my face, but it was still a good idea, I wouldn't have to endure other's pity, or the painful memories of Annabeth.

Artemis seemed to be in deep thought, then said
"How do you feel about travelling with the hunters for a while?"

No. No- I wanted to scream but I was afraid it would offend her,  how bad could it be after everything I've been through? Just a few weeks with dangerous, men killing immortal girls. But I was not the only one who didn't agree with the decision.

" But milady, he is a male and we promised not to have any interactions with males" said a girl, whom I recognised as Phoebe, one of the oldest huntress of Artemis.

But Thalia came in from nowhere" Oh, come on girls, it's just Percy" she said " it could have been a lot worse" everyone agreed on that.
" besides, it's Lady Artemis's order and we cannot defy it" she continued
" though, we can make his life living hell" she finished with a evil grin on her face.

I definitely didn't like the sound of that but she was right, I cannot defy Artemis.

So I agreed to stay with them and the gathering ended.

Vomment plz

I agree, I suck at break-up and it's aftermath.

I wrote this chapter in a hurry, and didn't have any time to reread or correct it.

I wanna request people to comment the mistakes I'm doing, as my only objective is to improve myself.

I'm also working on a family crime novel of my own, i haven't decided of publishing it yet. So If you're interested in family drama stuff, then do tell me.

I'll publish it, after finishing this story.

I guess, it's bye for now.
