Back to the Future (Percy Jackson Version)

Um? Grover? Why Do You Look Like A Child?

Annabeth POV

They screamed my ear off it felt like. well, it was more like a goat bleating my ears off because that's what they sounded like. 

They turn for the door to run out of it. And hey ran into it, and then fainted. 

"Holy Hera!" Percy exclaimed. "My ears just died! That was like listening to Leo try and sing Party in the USA!" 

I rubbed my temples to heal my impending headache. Then questions started runnng through my mind, I sorted each one into my mental baskets and told myself to go over them later because at the moment, we needed to figure out who this person was and why they were in our VRBO. 

Percy walked up to the person and gasped. 

"What?" I asked and then I got a look at the person. 

It was Grover, but it wasn't at the same time. This Grover looked younger, and young being back when we were twelve. He looked less stressed out too, like he was before he was on the mission to bring Percy from one of his old schools, Yancy, to camp. 

"That's different," said Percy. He tried shaking Grover. 

"Tin cans," Grover moaned in response. Percy slapped him and Grover shot up like a spider was crawling on him. 

He quickly scooted away from us. "Don't kill me! I'm still young! I promise I'm human!" 

Percy let out a dark laugh. I looked at him I surprise. He winked at me and I got the message. "You're a horrible liar, Grover underwood," Percy boomed in an authoritative voice. 

Grover let a scared bleat. "We know what you are," I hissed. Then I laughed and Percy laughed to. 

"Sorry Grover," Percy said and stood. He held out a hand to help Grover up and the satyr took it wearily. "I couldn't pass up the opportunity."

"Do I--- do I know you?" Asked Grover. Percy and I both rose. The satyr turned to me. "I mean you, you look familiar. Like an older version of Annabeth and... and you, you don't look familiar." Grover pointed at Percy who had a confused expression in his face.

Suddenly, it  clicked for me. "Grover, what's the date?"

A/N  I don't remember what the date would have been before Grover met Percy so we're just going to take a guess.

"Um, well, its May first, 2005," Grover looked at us strangely. Percy's eyes widened. I sucked in a breath. 

"And where are we?" I asked him. I looked at the corner of my eye and saw Percy starting to piece things together. 

"The upper Hudson valley," he replied. His back stiffened as he sniffed the air. "Are you monsters?"

"No, we're not. We're demigods," said Percy. 

"But your scent is so strong, like a really powerful monster," Grover exclaimed. 

The door started to freak open again. Percy and I drew our weapons. What sounded like hooves starting making its way in. 

"Chiron?" Percy and I said in tandem. Chiron froze and pulled out Riptide, a different one. The centaur looked younger than he was now, less weary and heartboken. 

"Wait, wait, wait. Don't worry Chiron, they're demigods," Grover stepped between Chiron and us. 

Chiron turned an unflinching gaze on us. "Where'd you get that sword, boy?" He snapped at Percy. 

"If you'll excuse us for a moment," I said and pulled Percy away from the two. "Oh my gods! I know whats happening! We've literally been sucked into the past. When you touched the gem!"

"Okay, and how do we get back to the future?" Percy whisper/hissed. 

"Yeah, that, I don't know," I said. "But I do know that Chiron can help us."

Percy nodded. We turned back to Chiron and Grover. 

"This is going to sound confusing," I started. "But we need your help. We think we've been sucked into the past, and we really need your help getting back."

"And how do we know this is true?" Chiron asked. 

"My name is Annabeth Chase, I'm eighteen years old. I've known you, Chiron, and you Grover, since I was seven years old." I showed them my eleven beads without getting to close. 

Chiron cautiously trotted closer to me. He grabbed my wrist gently and lifted it. He looked at my palm and I knew what he was doing. When I had first came her, I had stumbled with my dagger and it had cut across my palm. Chiron gasped. 

"It's true!" he pulled me into his arms, squeezing me very tightly. Then he let go and looked at Percy. "And you? Who are you?" Percy scratched the back of his neck awkwardly. 

"Well, you don't know me yet. My name is Percy Jackson---" Chiron cut Percy off. 

"Actually, I do know you. You're my student," Chiron laughed. 

"Oh," Percy chuckled nervously. He grabbed my hand. "Excuse us for a moment... again." Percy pulled me a little ways away from them again. He whispered, "Do I tell them I'm a son of Poseidon?"

"Yeah," I said. "But we can't tell them major things. Like... Luke, and Silena, or Beckendorf, or the Romans, or Gaea. Not yet."

Percy nodded and then we went back to them. "I'm seventeen years old and---"

"Whose your godly parent?" Grover cuts Percy off. I watch as my boyfriends as narrow and Grover takes a step back. 

"I was getting to that. I'm a son of Poseidon," Said Percy. 

Both Chiron and Grover gape at him. Chiron sputters and pales. 

"If you're think about the Great Prophecy," Percy sighed. "Then it's already happened."

"And we... and we won?" Chiron asks. 

Percy opens his mouth to say something. I hold my hand up and cut him off. "Maybe. Maybe not. I mean, for all you know, we could've betrayed camp."

"Ah," said Chiron, his hand scratching his chin. "Yes, we wouldn't want to spoil any major events. I will refrain myself from asking those kinds of questions. But you must tell me this, who gets elected president in 2008?"

Percy and I stay silent. 

"Nevermind," Chiron sighed. "I suppose that is an important question too. In the meantime," the centaur said brightly, "Can i have the two of you do a job for me?"

Percy's eye twitched.
