"Alright Jackson, you're up next, you good?" Coach Nesty called out from across the room. "I'm good Coach, thanks!" I yelled back, shaking out my body and prepping myself for the final of the men's 200m race. Am I nervous? Kinda. Am I confident? Kinda. I don't want to use any of my Poseidon powers, make the race as even as I can, the other athletes deserve it.

"Alright Jackson, go time!" Coach Nesty shouted. Cheers chanted from everyone in the room as I walked out to meet the other swimmers. I took a deep breath and got in line. The first few guys went out then it was me.

"And now, four years after his first Gold medal, please welcome Percy Jackson of team USA!" the speaker announced. I jogged out, cheers echoed around the arena from all the USA supporters, so loud I couldn't even hear the music blasting. This was it, no turning back now.

I found my lane and put on my goggles and swim hat, then taking off my team USA hoodie. I looked around the stadium for block 4, row 1, where Annabeth was meant to be sitting. Sure enough there she was with my Mom, Paul and Grover. She beamed at me, her smile melting all my nerves. I grinned, giving them a wave. I lined up on my board, ready to dive in, the clear water waiting for me.

3,2,1, and the race began. We dived in and swam. I had to do 4 lengths, 50m each. Just keep on going...

3,2,1 and bam they were off! Percy was in 2nd place, right behind the Irish guy, who had won the previous night. They were still even on the 2nd lap, but Percy was starting to edge up in front of him. Cheers were blaring around the arena, Sally screaming so loud that you couldn't think straight.

It was now coming up to the final lap and the chants were getting louder. Percy was now in front, about a metre ahead. "GO PERCY!" Sally yelled, followed by Paul and Grover repeating it. Everyone was on their feet, eagerly watching the tight race. About 20 metres to go now..

Final lap, cmon' Percy. I pushed off the wall as hard as I could off the turn, I'm just about ahead now. I put as much of my strength in, not using any godly powers though. There's about 20 metres to go now. I pushed myself as much as I could, I could hear the crowd now. 5,4,3,2,1 and I hit the wall. Had I done it?

The judges weren't sure, needing to check the cameras for a minute. I hopped out of the water, the crowd now silent. I took off my hat and goggles, giving the other competitors high fives. Then the speaker came on

"And now, the moment we've all been waiting for, the winner of the men's 200m final is..."

"PERCY JACKSON, TEAM USA!"

The crowd erupted into cheers and I jumped into the air. I sprinted over to Annabeths row, where my mother was crying and Annabeth was cheering. She saw me and held out her arms. I crushed her in a hug, cameras flashing all around us, but I didn't really care. I kissed her, this was better than any prize or medal I could get. We pulled apart and I hugged my mom and Paul, giving Grover a bro-hug. I ran back over to the pool, and was congratulated by my coach and the other swimmers. I thanked them and went to stand on the podium.

Our national anthem began playing, and the gold medal was placed around my neck. I silently thanked the gods, hopefully they won't freaking make me do another dam quest because of this.

They did.
