It had been only a week since Hacate died, and the mist fell. The gods have come out and revealed themselves to the mortal world, and rest assured everyone went crazy. The Greek gods explained the whole situation to the demigods, but this changed almost nothing for most of them.

Percy, on the other hand, was majorly affected. Half  his life was in the mortal world, but now he can't walk down the street without being recognized as 'The Hero Of Olympus' or 'The Savior of the World'. He was sick of it already. He was already famous in the godly world, he didn't want to be famous in the mortal one too.

This didn't stop him from walking, or more accurately riding, down the streets of manhattan. You see, Percy had bought himself a motorcycle to get to and from camp more easily. He was casually riding down the street to get himself a spicy chicken sandwich. Out of nowhere, a group of about 25 monsters started chasing him down the street. This quickly gained the attention of mortals and a news helicopter was very quick to the scene.

Meanwhile, at camp half blood, the demigods were enjoying their lunch when someone pointed out that Percy was on the news. They all look to Hephaestus' magical TV to see a video of Percy riding away from a bunch of monsters.

"Breaking news! A hoard of monsters has been spotted chasing none other than Perseus Jackson down the streets of Manhattan. Perseus is currently trying to evade the monsters while drinking what we've identified as a McDonalds soda." The news anchor says

Citizens all over the world watch as Percy grows closer to the edge of a bridge. At the very last second, Percy pulled out riptide and stabbed it into the ground making the motorcycle do a 180. He lets go of riptide before flipping over the motorcycle and throwing it at the monsters, Captain America style. The bike exploded turning most of the monsters into dust.

Percy turns around and grabs riptide before vaporizing the rest of the monsters. He looks to the fire the explosion started and summons a wave from the nearby river to put it out. They change the channel to local news and see a news anchor running up to an annoyed looking Percy.

"Percy Jackson! Can I get a moment of your time?" Percy looks towards the anchor and put away riptide. "How do you feel about this situation? You handled it in a good way, I'd say."

"Man, I just wanted to get myself a spicy chicken sandwich, and I can't even do that. Also, that was a brand new motorcycle." He says

"What were you thinking leading up the crash?" They ask

"Well, I'm not usually the one that makes plans. That's more my girlfriend's thing. Either way I was gonna crash my motorcycle so I just thought I would do it in a badass way. Really I just say YOLO and roll with it." Percy answers, "Anyway, I have to go pick up my spicy chicken sandwich. Have a nice day!"

With that, Percy runs back to the nearby McDonalds and gets his spicy chicken sandwich before making his way back to camp.
