So...My Life is Officially Mixed Up

Percy

Oh my gods she updated! Yeah, I know it's been a little while. I'm sorry. I had a huge writer's block. I apologize in advance on how terrible this chapter will be.

"Put your hands up!" A man with dark skin and greying hair said

I put my hands up and lost my balance. Annabeth caught me.

"What are you doing?" Barry asked

"Remember, I showed you his file. He's a criminal. What's he doing here?" the man asked, still pointing his gun at me.

"Look, so I already have a concussion. I don't want a bullet to the chest too." I said

"Joe, I'll explain everything. Put the gun down." Barry said

The man looked at him questioningly but did what he said. I put my hands down and held onto Annabeth.

"So, you know how in Greek Mythology there are gods and they have children? Well it's all true, and these three are demigods." Barry said motioning to Leo, Annabeth, and me.

The guy's face didn't change.

"You're not surprised?" Leo asked

"It's just another Tuesday in Central City." The man said

I laughed and asked, "Man, what goes on around here?"

"A lot." Cisco, Caitlyn, and Barry said

"And in National City." Kara said.

"Oh, hi Ka...Supergirl." The gun dude said

"It's fine, they know."

"Oh, okay. Anyway, what does them being demigods have to do with all the stuff that Percy did?"

"Well monsters were after me and they caused destruction as they tried to kill me. Anyway, who are you?" I explained

"Sorry, I'm Joe West. I'm Barry's foster dad." Joe said

"Okay. So, I'm gonna go rest and hope that my head isn't killing me in the morning." I said

"Night!" Barry called

I waved as Annabeth and I walked to where our temporary bedroom was. I don't know why it made me so happy to say our bedroom. It made me feel almost normal. Annabeth and I's relationship is the only semi normal thing about my life. I would like to keep it that way.

"Percy," Annabeth said, "Tartarus told us how to help you with your flashbacks. He said that you have to face all of your bad memories and accept that life won't get better. He said that the past was a demigod's true terror."

"Like in the prophecy! 'The sea's son will fight his terror alone.' My terror wasn't Tartarus. My terror is my past!" I said

"So, the friends that will overthrow the leader, are people from Camp Half-Blood!" Annabeth concluded.

"Okay, so how do I face all of my memories?" I asked

"I would think that you would just think of all of our quests and you go into a memory."

"Er...okay."

I thought of every single quest I ever had. I thought of every detail. I slipped into all of my memories. They went through my mind in a flash. I saw every little detail and thought to myself, 'My life really isn't going to get any better is it? The fates won't give me a better normal life.' I saw every bad thing that happened in my life. I felt hot tears come down my cheeks. As the memories got closer and closer to the present, I was completely hopeless at my life becoming normal. Everything turned into a bright light. I was back in Annabeth and my room. I was laying down on my cot and Annabeth was lying next to me. I smiled at the sight of her. Her princess curls, the peaceful look on her face when she slept (does that sound creepy?). Anyway, I fell asleep and for once, I didn't have any dreams.
