Percy P.O.V

*Day of the attack*

I was swimming in the lake when I heard the conch horn sound. "That's weird," I thought as I swam to the surface of the water. I quickly got out -dry of course- and ran to the hill, my dual swords in their hidden form (a watch). When I got there, I was greeted by at least 5000 monsters. That wasn't what surprised me though, it was the person leading. Kronos.

He stood smugly on the top of the hill, holding his scythe with confidence. We made eye contact, and for a second he faltered. I probably just imagined it though.

I still had no idea why he would attack, or at least without telling me. I assumed that he forgot to tell me. Was I supposed to kill the monsters and demigods on his side though?

I was pushed out of my thoughts when I saw a spear then at me. I dodged it easily and saw the attacker. A demigod on our side, Kevin, son of Nemesis. I pushed a button on my watch, and my swords appear in my hands. Kevin pulled out his sword and started swinging it at me, but I just blocked his attacks. I fake a stab on his left and then hit the side of his head, not killing him but leaving him unconscious.

I continued attacking, killing monsters, and leaving the demigods unconscious. As I slashed down an empousai, I noticed a flash of auburn hair nearing me. I tore down a cyclops and sprinted towards the person. Who could it be? They seemed familiar.

I neared her, and she spun around quickly, raising her dagger protectively. When I saw her face, I realized who she was immediately. Arianna, my girlfriend.

She stared at me for a second, then kissed me.

"Percy? Where were you? I haven't seen you in a month!"

"Uhh," came my smart response.

"Percy! What are you doing on their side? Did they brainwash you? Did they torture you? Did they-"

She was cut off when a storm of blonde came in and slapped her. It was Annabeth, my other girlfriend.

"How dare you kiss my boyfriend?! He's taken!" yelled Annabeth.

"Your boyfriend?! He's mine!"
Arianna said while punching Annabeth.

"No, he's mine!!"

They start fighting.

"Um guys, we're in the middle of a giant battle and you two are fighting over-" I got cut off.

"Percy be quiet! This is between me and her!" They both said at the same time.

"Okay, okay," I say, and run off to continue fighting. I hope they don't kill each other.

I step back on the battlefield and continue to hack away at the monsters. I wasn't really paying attention, I was just thinking about why Kronos attacked. I'm his son! At least I think I am. He could've been lying to me! But I won't ever know I guess. I'm still so confused. It's like I had two different lives. One with Poseidon as my father, me being a hero, Annabeth as my girlfriend, and a whole different life with Kronos being my father, Arianna as my girlfriend and me being a half-titan. It's like my two lives collided and are trying to overthrow each other.

I was so caught up in my thoughts I forgot to dodge the giant cyclops fist speeding towards me. It collided with my head, knocking me back. I quickly sliced through the cyclops with Tremor (one of my swords), killing it. I held my head, trying to ease the pain. Cyclops are strong creatures. However, whilst doing so, I let down my guard again and another cyclops -presumably the brother of the one I just killed- punched me in the gut and kicked my side. I fell on the ground, falling unconscious. I felt someone, or something pick me up. Then I blacked out.
