Percy tells Paul

Chapter 4: Goode

Percy POV
School was back on as normal and he was determined not to be kicked out or beat up any bullies. This was Paul's school he couldn't let him down any more than he had already. He could tell Paul was freaked out enough already, as well a week of school he was going to honestly beat up some people if they didn't leave him alone.

(Time skip)

It was Monday morning. The bullies better be in a better mood than he was or he would consider bringing out riptide even though it didn't work on mortals. Let's hope they were monsters. He ate breakfast scowling at his blue pancakes almost wishing the school day would just go away and let him sleep till summer. Wait he didn't want the nightmares or the fight with Kronos to come any quicker than it already was!

Paul drove him to school and kept up a normal conversation. No talk about his demigod life. No talk about anything than normal things and normal lives. They arrived at Goode with plenty of time so he decided to go swimming, it always seemed to improve his overall mood in general. He was stopped by the bully who had almost seen his powers who he had threatened to severely damage. "Simon what an honour to see your ugliness." Simon didn't look impressed and began to push him around. If he had been back to full energy he would have gotten Simon in the splits or something along those lines. Simon continued, he didn't fight back because he was swaying on his feet, this seemed impossible, he never got sick! He tried to protect his shoulder that had the sedative in it but Simon noticed and gave it a big punch. He couldn't stop the sedative now it had entered his bloodstream, his eyesight became foggy and blurry. Falling on the ground he curled up to protect his ribs but doing this the bully took three kicks at his head letting blood run into his eyes. The last thing he saw was his history teacher take down Simon and call to a nearby teacher to get Paul, his step father. The world then spinned all the way into the abyss.

Paul POV
Mr Adams the current deputy head teacher came running and out of breath into the English staff room. He was scheduled to see Percy next lesson to teach him but no teacher ever doesn't run like that without a reason. Mr Adams caught his breath and turned to him, "Paul you have to come to the changing rooms, Percy is in a bad state!" His mind flashed immediately to the conversation about him being a demigod and how it was going to be tough and that it would be dangerous taking him to the hospital because if they tested his blood they were in real trouble! They made it down to the changing rooms only to see Percy's history teacher holding down a student with blood all over his white trainers. He pointed at the boy and said, "take him to my office I will speak to him later!" The teacher nodded and hauled out the boy. Further in the changing rooms he saw Percy unconcious, laid in the foetal position to protect his ribs but his head was bleeding. It all made sense the boy had kicked Percy in the head because his ribs were protected. Turning to the door he locked it and went back to Percy he wrapped Percy's towel from in his bag around his head. The bleeding stopped quite quickly but Percy was still unresponsive, he had to trust Percy's word. Picking up him bridal style he took him to the pool side and draped Percy's split knuckles into the water, just like magic his knuckle healed almost instantly now trusting that this could work he placed his body in the water keeping his head supported out of the water. Percy moved and pulled out of his arms but the effort seemed to cause him to pass out again. He slipped through his arms and he sunk to the bottom of the deep pool. In desperation he dived in and swam to the bottom only to notice Percy was breathing normally. Percy looked up and smiled grasping his wrist "breathe," Percy said so he did. Percy had allowed him to breathe underwater! A large bubble enveloped them and he stopped floating. Percy's head looked better but was still only scabbed over, "we need to get you home!" He said, Percy nodded and let go of the bubble but propelled them to the surface. Percy, naturally go out of the pool dry! Percy touched his wrist and he dried straight away but the strain was too much Percy passed out again and he was forced to carry the boy again into the large open area to leave him under the supervision of the school nurse.

Entering his office he spoke to the boy and the head teacher who together they decided that the boy was to be expelled from school. Returning to Percy they waited for thirty minutes for Sally to come pick up Percy. She arrived with a surprise. Annabeth had arrived early and just before Sally had been called to pick up Percy. Annabeth rushed to him and nudged his shoulder in an attempt to wake him up but with no progress. He picked up Percy once again and sat him next to Annabeth in the back of the car.

They got out of the car to see Percy had slumped over in the car with his head on her knee, Annabeth was sitting contentedly playing with his messy hair. Bringing him inside Annabeth went straight to work feeding Percy a mixture of the godly food, nectar and ambrosia. Percy's colour started to return and he woke as soon as he had finished the ambrosia, he looked at Annabeth and smiled, "here we are again" he said laughing. Annabeth's face broke into smiles and she gave him a hug, "Seaweed Brain would you please stop almost dying without me!" He chuckled and looked over at Sally who was bringing over cookies to them.
