Percy Jackson: The Wolf Curse

Chapter 1: Capture and Rescue

[Percy's pov:]

Intense pain filled my body with every bone crunching change. Kronos stood there laughing maniacally as he faded. What was happening? I was being cursed into a wolf. This is how it all happened.

Grover had told me of a disturbance just a ways out from Camp. So I went out to check it out. It turns out kronos had returned, looking for me. He flashed us to Hades knows where. Before saying.

"Percy. I'm fading now thanks to you, but before I do. Let me leave you with a small present fit for a pathetic demigod like you. I'm going to curse you to change into an animal for eternity" and then he laughed before shooting a ball of black straight into me. Somehow I could feel the curse inside choosing an animal. And then came the pain so strong I would prefer to fight Gaea and Kronos twice over.

When the agonising pain finally subsided, Kronos was gone. Faded forever. Remembering the curse, I looked at myself in a nearby river only to find my human body no longer looked back. Instead wolf With black matted fur and a sea green Toning across my belly stared back with eyes now a darker animalistic green.

Having thoroughly checked my body to ensure everything was there, I left the river in the direction, hopefully, of camp half blood. Even if I'm a wolf now I can write on the ground or something right? Well if they give me a chance to.

Arriving at the camp borders I try to walk in, Only to feel my face smack the barrier head on. Why couldn't I get in? I'm still a demigod right? I started pacing back and forth hoping to find someone near the border. After having realising that no one really goes near the boundary anymore, I left. No point sitting around waiting for someone to leave. I took my chances and headed home. If I'm no longer a demigod then surely I've no scent left.

After entering the forest, I heard an unruly growl from below, signalling hunger. "Great now I have to learn to hunt" I grumbled at myself. So I started searching for prey to eat. After about an hour I found a deer eating away at some grass, my instincts guided my steps keeping me low and undetected. I slowly approached from behind before pouncing at its neck, delivering a fatal and what I hoped to be a painless blow. As it died I began to tear at its flesh, my instincts driving me to forsake manners and just gorge on the tasty meal before me. After I had my fill, I left the corpse for the scavengers to enjoy and reset my sights... and snout on home.

After having completed my long trek back to New York, I arrived in an alleyway near my home, here I, once again, realised something. I'm a dam wolf. I don't even know how I got this far without being seen but how do I explain all this to mum without being able to speak as well as looking like a ferocious wolf which definitely doesn't help that. Oh well I've come this far might as well try anyways I thought to myself. I trotted along to the front door taking note that it was left ajar. I was now beginning to worry as I made my way inside I found no signs of well anyone. And it looked like no one had been here in a week at that. I went upstairs to find an empty crib where my new little sister should have been. And some of the drawers emptied. My Mum and the family were gone. That hurt. They didn't even tell me.

I left the house leaving the door as I found it, who knows they may have done it on purpose. Don't want to lock em out or anything. I retreat back to the nearby alleyway only to find it occupied by a new scumbag who thinks girls are tools to his disgusting desires. Naturally I'm going to throw away this trash and it ain't recycling either, always wanted to say that. I pounced at the unexpecting asshole, dragging him off the poor little girl.. after having seen her frail body, not to mention resemblance to the man. I quickly figured out that this scum was her father. And yes, I mean was, seconds later I crushed his neck in my jaw leaving him to die. Dam shouldn't have done that in front of her.
