This wasn't supposed to happen! It wasn't supposed to be this way! As I walked over to them, it was like all time stopped. I never wanted this to happen, so why did it? I guess that's a question we're all asking ourselves these days.
"What's going on here?!" I asked, bewildered.
"Nothing that should concern you," Annabeth spat.
"Fine!" I yelled, and stormed off.
What was going on? This wasn't how it was a couple months ago. I leave for a few weeks, and then everything is ruined when I get back. The only thing I ever asked for was peace, so the Fates give it to me for a few months, then take it away again. They're so nice.
I was barley even away from camp even when I was gone. I was in New York for a semester I was kind of hoping to finish before Christmas. Then I got called back to camp for some mysterious mystery. I don't even know who sent me there. I just know that I woke up one day, and there was a letter for me, explaining everything. Well, mostly, except for the fact that my girlfriend-no wait-ex-girlfriend was cheating on me.
Yep, everything was just perfect.
As I was walking back to my cabin, something out in a distance caught my eye. It was small, like a pearl, and glowing like the moon.
I walked over to it just as the bushes to my right started rustling. I looked over, and out popped Nico, and for a short second, he looked angry.
"So you did take it!" he shouted at me.
"Take what?" I inquired, completely confused.
"My sphere! I've been looking for it for the past couple weeks!" Nico screamed.
"I haven't even been here for more than a day, Nico!" I tried to assure him, barley keeping my angry sustained.
"You liar!" he shouted once more before leaping off and grabbing his sphere. Then he melted into the shadows, and I remember loud and clear that he wasn't supposed to do that. I think I remember Will telling me something about Nico and fading if he shadow traveled again.
I sighed and continued to walk back to my cabin.
By the time that I reached my cabin, I was exhausted. I faintly remember having to take about ten or so breaks on my way here. Why was I feeling so drained? Oh well, I thought, and I fell on my bed without even changing.
When I woke up the next morning, I felt like I was falling. Then I jerked myself awake and sat up quickly.
As I stood up, I felt drowsy, like I feel when I'm sick. So, I dressed myself quickly, and left my cabin.
When I got outside, I felt better, still queasy, but better. When I passed Annabeth's cabin, and saw her inside, I sneered in her direction and hurried along.
Breakfast wasn't very full today, but as I passed everyone, I was met with more glares and disgusted looks then the night before.
Finally I was tired of getting stared at, and declared, "What?"
The campers just stared at me and then turned away.
Sighing once again, I sat down at the Poseidon table. How was I supposed to fix anything when I don't even know what I did? I was snapped out of my thoughts by the sound of something, or someone, coming over to me.
"Percy," I looked up, and Chiron was standing there. "may I talk with you after breakfast?" he asked, but it sounded more like a command than a question.
I nodded and he left.
After breakfast I went to the Big House where Chiron was waiting on the deck. He was pacing back and fourth impatiently when I arrived.
He went right out and said it, "You need to leave."
I stood still for a few minutes when he spoke again, "You need to pack up and leave within the hour, otherwise I have permission to kill you on sight. But before you go, come back here, the gods wish to speak with you before you leave."
I just left again, without saying anything. They're probably going to kill me, I thought aloud, passing campers giving me strange looks.
As I walked through the door to my cabin that I wouldn't see again-hopefully not anyway-I started looking around the walls. To the normal mortal eye, they would seem plain, dusty, but plain. To demigods that have some godly blood in them, it looked like a war zone.
The walls to me, were slightly red stained, and bloody. I guess it was from all of those "small" tasks that the gods have had me do. Well guess what, those days are over! I'm not staying here another second where I'm going to be a pawn of the gods, much less the Fates.
When I heard a few knocks at my door, I yelled at whoever was outside, "Come in!" Thalia came in a few moments later, and looked around shocked.
"Where do you think you're going?" she asked me, her voice dangerously calm.
"I'm leaving this dreaded camp!" I exclaimed. "I was ordered to go!"
"By whom?" she asks, now her voice was a little softer.
"You're mentor," I remarked, and she looked taken-back.
"Wh-what?" she stuttered.
"I think you heard me right, you're mentor." with that I walked out, leaving Thalia to choke on her sobs.
Then I heard a faint, "I'm going to kill him!"
Thalia ran up to me, and one thing I noticed was that her eyes weren't their stormy, dark, cold blue. They were dark grey instead, and one thing was for sure, she just added herself to the party of Percy haters. In the back of my mind I was saying, "Percy Haters, party of 400, Percy Haters, party of 400."
I tried to walk past her, key word: tried.
She grabbed me by the back of my shirt, and pulled me back toward her. When I was right next to her, I could feel her eyes boring into the back of my neck.
"What have you done?" she asked me, then something hard hit me in the head.
The next and only thing I knew was darkness.
