A Chase for Jackson (percabeth)

2...Mrs. owl and fainting cousins

Annabeth's POV

I was walking near the strawberry fields when the Stolls came charging down the hill.

"Annabeth," Travis Stoll panted. "He needs to go home!" I arched my eyebrows at that.

"Talk properly, Travis."

"Maybe in a minute..." Travis face planted into the dirt.

Connor rolled his eyes. Sweat beaded on his forehead. "Chiron wants you to get Percy. Something about big news. And he has to go home. Now...sleep!" Connor Stoll finished his sentence and collapsed on the ground next to his brother. I kicked their hands gently.

"I'm warning you Stolls, if this is a prank, I will murder you." I sprinted to the Poseidon cabin.

It was dark and completely silent. I slowly pushed the door open. Percy was sitting on the floor with his clothes scattered everywhere. Probably daydreaming.

"Knock knock, anyone home?" I leaned on the doorframe, ignoring the seashells digging into my back.

Percy glanced up and smiled, his sea-green eyes focused on the lose strands of hair across my face. I blew them up and heaved a sigh.

"You're still packing? Gods of Olympus, Percy, how much are you planning to bring home?" It was true. Ambrosia and nectar was scattered all over the place. His orange Camp Half-Blood was wrinkled and stunk.

He gave me a lopsided grin. "I needed your help so it's perfect that you're here." Percy grabbed my hand and pulled it near his lips, kissing it. "Come on, Wise Girl!" There was an unmistakable whine in his tone.

"No, Seaweed Brain. I just came by to tell you I'm leaving for San Francisco now." I laughed and pulled my hand out of his grasp but he started to whine and pout. He looked at me and widened his eyes, blinking them twice. "Please? Wise Girl?"

Did he honestly think that I would give in that easily? I mean he was cute and all but I've known him for six years and that's how he gets what he wants.

I shook my head and bit down my laughter. "I'd love to, Percy, but Chiron says that my dad's been ringing Camp all week, excited to go camping. Oh and he wants to tell you that Sally wants you back. Something about big news." I bent down and gave him a small kiss on the cheek. He tried the puppy eyes again so I winked and ran out.

When I glanced back, Percy was sticking his head out the door, shouting, "Don't get eaten by spiders!" I shuddered at the thought. After my encounter with Arachne, spiders have bothered the children of Athena even more.

I glared at him. "If I do, Seaweed Brain, you won't have a girlfriend anymore and Athena would murder you!" I saw him pale and I laughed before continuing my walk to the big house.

"Sorry, Athena!" I heard Percy squeak. "I don't want your daughter to die because she was eaten by spiders on a camping trip!" The sky rumbled.

Oh no, Percy. Gods of Olympus, what have you done? My mom is gonna get so mad at you.

A loud hoot and an enraged scream echoed through the entire Camp. "ANNABETH!" I giggled and waved at Piper who was at the stairs of the big house.

"Hey, Pipes!"

"Hey, Annabeth-HOLY APHRO!" Piper paled and pointed behind me before running inside.

I glanced over my shoulder and gasped. My mother was talking to Percy who had bird poop and rips in his wrinkled shirt. "MOM?!"

Athena looked at me and smiled. "Hello, Annabeth." Then she turned back to my boyfriend.

I rushed up the stairs of the big house. "Chiron, Percy-"

"Annabeth! Ah, Clarisse. Good you're all here." Chiron had gathered all my friends.
"As you all know, the Great War with Gaea is over." The room cheered. "But summer is now over and you kids can't stay here forever. Percy is going to Goode High School and I've already spoken to Percy's stepfather, Paul, and he agreed to let eight to nine of you enter Goode."

We all gaped at him, our jaws hanging. "WHAT?!?" The room exploded; all demigods talking at once, arguing and bickering.

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Clarisse slip out during the mess. I wondered why the daughter of Ares would miss a nice argument but I figured she was probably going to find her boyfriend, Chris.

"Annabeth Chase," I nodded.

"Piper McLean," Piper squeeked.

"Hazel Levesque," She started fanning her face.

"Jason and Thalia Grace," Jason smiled and nodded formally but his sister almost had a heart attack. "What! But I'm immortal! I am a Hunter of Artemis! I can't go to high school! Ugh, I'm not feeling so good." Thalia fainted.

"Frank Zhang." There was an iguana in his seat.

"And Nico Di Angelo." Nico fell out of the shadow he was hiding in. "Me?"

Chiron bobbed his head. "Yes, Nico. You."

The son of Hades paled so much he could have been a ghost. "Me." He muttered before fainting next to his cousin

"Pack your bags, You're going to Goode high school~" The door burst open and Percy came charging through. He glanced his two cousins and raised his eyebrows.

"Percy, why are you covered in pink glitter?" Rachel scowled and gasped. "NO..." she squinted, getting a better look. "Son of Poseidon...Did you decide to do some papier mâché without me?" Rachel place her hands on her hips.

I frowned and hide behind the crowd of demigods. What did pink glitter have to do with papier-mâché?

Yes I know what papier-mâché is. Daughter of Wisdom here, and savior of Olympus. Of course I can't forget girlfriend of the amazing Percy Jackson! I smiled at the thought.

"Paper what? And no, Rachel. I, uh, got ambushed by two goddesses outside my cabin?" Percy winced when he mentioned my mother. What in Athens did she do to him?

The room erupted into chaos for the second time in a row.

"Help!" Rachel dived to the floor and started to craw toward to exit. "I still want to go to Paris and many other places, not get killed by some half gods!"

Across the room near Mr. D's PAC man machine, Travis crashed into a chair sending it tumbling towards Chiron. The old man swatted it away like a fly while trying to keep the room from getting anymore worse.

"MOTHER RHEA!" Thalia sat up straight. Her electric blue eyes darted around the room. "Oh Gods." She collapsed onto Nico's chest, a bit of drool dropped onto his black skull shirt.

"Athena save us." I prayed before joining Chiron.
