The Seven: Switched

The Big Scary Monster

So, I turned around. I couldn't believe my eyes. The scariest monster was wrecking the town behind me. I tapped Percy's shoulder. "Percy..."

"What up, Annabeth?" Percy asked.

I pointed to the destroyer. His eyes went wide, just as the mortals' did. I knew that he understood the situation.

"Listen, guys." Percy began. I think that whatever happened to us was not a coincidence. Look behind you."

"It's-it's-it's Typhon!" Piper gasped.

Hazel started making the plumbing system in the building go haywire. I guess that's what happens when you can't control your powers. Percy explained everything to Hazel about the water thing, which I truly couldn't understand.

Once that was completed, Percy explained the plan to all of us. He said that we need to call on the gods in order to defeat him. We weren't strong enough to handle this big of a disaster.

The only problem was, he didn't know how we could do that. "Let's try praying to our parents from our original powers." he told us.

"Athena, please hear me. Typhon is back, and a tragedy happened to us, so we cannot defeat him on our own. Please, come help us. We need your help. I need your help." I prayed.

I opened my eyes. No god was here.Now that I think about it, Athena didn't answer my prayer. What was wrong in the world at that time? I had no idea.

"Child, why are you praying to me? You are not even mine. You are Ares'. I will only except prayers from my children, especially my favorite, Percy Jackson. Do not even try again, child. Talk to your father." Athena spoke in my mind.

My eyes started to tear up. How could she not remember me? I thought that I was her favorite! My life is ruined! This couldn't be happening! Why me?

"Percy!" I cried.

"Annabeth! What's wrong?" Percy sounded concerned.

"I prayed to Athena, and she told me that I was Ares' child, not hers. She told me that you were her favorite! My life is tearing apart!"

Jason gasped and turned to Percy. "I think we should try praying to the powers that we have now."

"I think that's a good idea." Leo agreed.

"Alright. Let's try that."
