The Power of a Potion ( A Percy Jackson/Heroes of Olympus Fanfic)

Chapter 3

(back to original point of view)

I yawned as I pulled myself out of bed. It was 8:00 in the morning. My parents are probably at work by now. School started on Tuesday this year for some reason. Today is Monday, I whined internally.

I dragged myself to my closet and I put on a colorful t-shirt, shorts, and sandals. I put my dark hair up in a messy bun. I always cosplayed as Piper if I got the choice. I did Reyna sometimes but Piper was my favorite.

I looked at my open book which was still on the desk. I had put paper towels in between the most damaged papers to help it a little.

I had turned my back to it to walk out of the door when I heard a sound coming from behind me. I whirled around. The Mark of Athena was now open to Annabeth II. Somehow, book pages flew out of the book, making a little tornado next to my desk.

I stared in shock. More and more pages rushed out of the book and added to the tornado until it was human sized.

Suddenly, the pages froze and fluttered to the floor. Standing where the tornado had been stood a teenage boy wearing a purple shirt with jeans and a weird white blanket draped across his shoulders. He was about 6 feet tall with raven black hair. When I met his green eyes, I saw that he looked as confused as I was.

"Who are you?" I asked meekly. My legs were feeling a little weak by that point.

"I'm... I'm Percy Jackson."

That was the last thing I remembered hearing because I fainted, but someone broke my fall.

------------------------------------

I get the weirdest dreams sometimes. This last one about Percy Jackson was no exception (at least I thought it was a dream.) I slowly came back to consciousness.

"I was literally about to reach you, Seaweed Brain but you just had to disappear didn't you?" A female voice frustratingly said.

What? Who else is in here? My parents must have not locked something when they left this morning. I didn't open my eyes. Are they burglars?, I thought.

"It wasn't my fault I swear! I think it had something to do with that girl."

"Who is she anyway?"  A shy male voice said.

"How am I supposed to know? I'm only the Supreme Commander of the Argo II."

"He wasn't asking you Leo."

"Well then who was he asking, Pipes? The air?"

A moment of silence.

"D'ya think she'll wake up if I kiss her?"

"LEO!" Everyone else chorused back at him.

And that's when I chose to open my eyes. I hoped that this was a dream but at the same time a part of me didn't.

"SHE'S ALIIIIVVVEE." A perfect copy of all of the Leo Valdez fanart said.

All of the others just stared at me.

"Umm... Are you guys cosplayers? Also why are you in my room?" I asked sheepishly. I was actually really terrified.

"Cosplayers?" Frank-cosplayer asked.

"Yeah. For the Heroes for Olympus. Ring a bell?" I asked. This was getting weird.

"We aren't cosplayers. What are those anyway?" 'Percy' asked.

"Ha! So you're telling me that you are Percy Jackson?"

He nodded.

"Okay. Let's see your water powers Percy." I took the glass of water on my nightstand table and drenched Percy but he and his white blanket remained dry I realized he was now behind ... a thin wall of water. I became dumbfounded.

"Who are you?" A blonde haired girl who I'm guessing was Annabeth asked.

"I'm Sam."

"Hi Sam." Leo said.

"Okay...  How did you guys get here anyway? Did you come out of my book? And don't worry I know who all of you are so no need for introductions," I said quietly. I stood up sort of disoriented.

"Wait what?" Jason said.

"I actually know a lot of stuff about you seven. You're Jason Grace, Piper McLean, Leo Valdez, Frank Zhang, Hazel Levesque, Annabeth Chase, and Percy Jackson. You know you all are taller than I expected." I said.

The seven drew their weapons and pointed them at my head when I finished, which was so scary, I downright screamed. When I finished, I heard two other screams outside of my bedroom door. Christine and Elise, probably. They liked to surprise me by coming over while my parents are gone.

Everyone's head whipped toward that direction.

Christine and Elise shoved open the door and they were wielding their hardcover books as weapons. In a dark voice, Elise said, "We heard a scream."
