We, six of the seven, stood in the throne room of Olympus facing the gods. "Since you have saved us we will each offer you one wish or immortality," Zeus thunders.

"One wish," We all replied.

"Wish away," Zeus booms.

"I want Hades and Hestia to have thrones on Olympus if they would like it," I say. Hades got one and Hestia declined.

"I wanted a portal between camps," Jason says, so Hecate made one.

"I would like my laptop and dagger back from Tartarus," Annabeth says, so Hades went and retrieved them for her.

"I want Leo back," Piper asks. Zeus raised his hands and a portal opened and Festus flew through, he had Leo on his back.

"I would like my curse to be lifted," Hazel says, Hades lifts the curse.

"I want my life not to be tied to firewood," Frank wishes, the Fates take the firewood.

"I want Calypso to not be immortal anymore," Leo asks.

"Calypso, are you OK with this?" Zeus asks.

"Yes," She says. Zeus waved his hand and she became mortal. Calypso smiled and hugged Leo.

The group returned to camp and Annabeth and I packed to leave for school. I am going to Midtown High and is coming later after she visits her dad. We are both staying in my mom's apartment during the school year. We walk up Half-Blood Hill to the van labeled Delphi's Strawberries.

"Bye!" Piper and Hazel shout hugging Annabeth.

"See you later bro," Jason says giving me a high five.

"See you soon," I say to Frank and Leo giving them both high fives. Annabeth and I ride the van to my mom's apartment on the Upper East Side. When we knock on her door, she runs out and hugs me. A few days later Annabeth leaves for California.

I got a job, I work as a tour guide in an aquarium. I walked home from work. Today was my last day, tomorrow school starts. Annabeth's plane got delayed. I'm going to miss her even if we'll see each other in a few days. I arrive home to the smell of cookies, I hope they're blue! In the kitchen my mom is pulling cookie sheets out of the oven. On the sheets are blue chocolate chip cookies, my favorite.

"These are to a good school year," Mom says.

"With no exploding schools, or monster attacks," I say.

We both take a cookie and bite into it. A look of content is on all of our faces.

"Mmm, the thing I missed the most on the Argo II, your cookies mom," I say as she laughs. We sit in silence for a while enjoying the silence and the cookies. I go out for a walk to clear my head. I see Spiderman swinging through the city. He's an ok hero, but I could do better. Maybe the crew and I could be a team. When they get here we can talk about it.

Later, I have a dinner of pizza and salad with my mom and Paul.

Then I get up and say, "Goodnight, I need to go to bed. I have school tomorrow. See you in the morning." Then go to my room. That night, for the first night in a long time, I didn't have nightmares.

The next morning I wake up to my alarm at six-thirty a.m. I take a shower and instantly dry myself. I go to the kitchen for a quick breakfast of toast. As I rush out the door Mom shouts at me, "Be a good boy honey. Try hard, and make friends."

"Yes ma'am!" I shout as I grab my skateboard and skate to school. Dodging traffic I skate down 5th to Midtown. I arrive at Midtown High, a red brick building. It's protected by a wrought iron gate, I'm not quite sure if that's to keep students in or danger out. I cautiously walk into the building and hope for the best.
