People Meet Percabeth

Zoe Jackson

A/N Hey Guys! This is a special chapter! MiaEvergreen wrote this for me! This is about Percabeth's older daughter Zoe. All rights go to Rick Riordan and MiaEvergreen

Zoe's POV:

When I was a little girl, I used to think that I could save the world. Just like my parents. They saved it twice. I wanted to be like them, to make them proud of me. I wanted to be a hero, someone known and respected for doing Good.

Now that I'm older, I understand more. I do not have to save the world to make them proud. I do not have to have the weight of the world on my shoulders, like they did, actually quite literally. I knew this. However, I still want to be a hero. I want to make others know me for me. Not for my parents. I am my own person. I have always wanted to prove myself. So every night, when I am falling asleep, I night-dream about my adventures, the places I could go, the things I would see and do! I would slay the monster, free the prisoners! I would find love, the truest kind, just like my parents. I would prove myself. But it's only a dream."Zoë!" My mother calls, jolting me out of my dream, "Zoë, it's time to for bed!""Okay, Mom," I say, burying myself under the covers, waiting for my good night kiss."Percy! Come say good night to Zoë!" Mom calls again, this time aiming her voice out the door."Coming, Annabeth!" Dad's voice is just outside my room, "So, Zoë, what trouble have you gotten yourself into today?""I don't get myself into trouble. Trouble gets into me." I scoff. It is true. While I am a well-behaved child, I still manage to find trouble in every world I enter."Kiddo, it's time for bed," Dad says, and he and my mom come over. Mom smoothes the blanket over my body."Goodnight, Mom and Dad. I love you." I say, reaching up to hug both of them tightly. We stay in a group hug for a while before my parents let go and I fall back into my sheets."We love you too, Zoë," Dad says lovingly."Sleep tight!" Mom whispers and she flicks the light off. I can just make out the outlines of my parents putting their arms around each other. They have this bond that is so strong and filled with love. And they have let my siblings and I into it. They are truly Good.My parents linger at the doorway for a bit, looking at me, before turning around and gently shutting the doors. I lay awake for some time but with patience, I slowly fall into a world that is entirely my own. Where I can do anything.I still want to save the world. I still want to be a hero. I still want to prove myself. But I will learn to stay put, for now, staying with my loving family. Someday though, I will save the world. Just like my parents. 

Goodbye People of the Earth and Mount Olympus!
