Percy Jackson: A New Life

Chapter 4

Zoe POV

The whole week we have been waiting for a phone call from Percy Jackson, but we haven't received any type of call. We have tried calling the boys but whenever we do, it goes straight to voicemail. "Their not going to call back." I said while everyone looked at me "All we can do is wait, if what Reyna said was true, Percy and his father moved here for to get away from their past life." Silena said while everyone nodded in agreement. "But it's been a week, their not going to answer nor will they probably leave Percy's house." I said but not long after Piper's phone started ringing as we all looked at her and she picked it up. "It 's Jason." she said confused "Answer it." Silena said quickly as Piper answered it and put it on speaker. "Hello?" Piper said, we expected Jason to answer but it was Percy "Hello." he said shocking us.

"Since the press and half of New Rome's population hasn't appeared in front of my house I'll take it you didn't tell everyone who I really am. Come on over, once you get to the gate type in the numbers 5874 and there will be a spare key beneath the carpet. Use that to open the door then put it back where it belongs, once you head inside please don't touch anything and head to the elevator, it will be beside the staircase. Press the number five and you will appear on the fifth floor and we will be up there, then we can talk about why I'm here." He said as Piper went to speak but he hung up "Well, let's go meet Percy Jackson." Calypso said as we all nodded in agreement.

When we appeared in front of the gate and typed in the numbers 5874 and watched as the gate opened and we walked in as I got the spare key and put it in the door and turned the doorknob and expected to see fancy things. But I didn't expect to see the house on the inside looking like a regular house, "I did not expect to see this. I expected it to be like Jason's house." Piper said shocked as we all nodded and headed to the elevator and pressed the number five as we all went up.

After a few seconds the door opened as we gasped, the fifth floor had a pool, a hot tub, and a basketball court?! "They must've been here not even a few minutes ago." Katie said as she pointed at the basketballs and wet towels on the ground. "Boys cannot stay clean, no matter what." I said as everyone nodded as we heard a shout and the sound of what sounds like tackling. "You suck Leo, now I see why you shouldn't try out for running back." We heard Jason say as the boys all laughed as we walked over to the edge and saw Percy's backyard.

It was huge! It looked like it was the size of a football field as we saw the boys all playing on it as we saw Percy stick his hand out for Leo and he did as he hoisted him up. "Last chance for a first down Leo, if you fail this time its our ball." Percy said with a smile as Leo spoke "Well its kind of hard since every time I run, I get hammered by you or Frank." he said while rubbing his shoulder as Travis spoke "Dude, if Percy, Jason, and Frank all start as linebackers our defense would be solid." Travis said as they all nodded in agreement "Put Percy and Jason on the right and left as they are quicker and put Frank in the middle. No running back would get five yards." Michael said as they all nodded until Percy spoke "And put Connor and Travis as the safety's and Michael and Lee as the cornerbacks. Every ball would be intercepted." he said as they all nodded.

"Last shot for a first down." Percy said as he and Frank stood side by side until Jason snapped the ball and threw it to Connor until Percy caught it and ran down the field surprising us at his speed, not even Jason could catch him. "He should try out for running back. I bet he would start." Piper said as we all nodded "He probably could start but remember, Dakota and Terry and their little posse are all the starting players for New Rome High." I said with distaste mentioning Dakota as he is rich but thinks that he is better than everyone. "But remember Anthony is Percy Jackson and I am positive that Percy can outrun Dakota." Piper said as everyone nodded but I was still unsure "Are you sure Dakota is pretty fast-" "But Percy has more reach and can run longer than Dakota." she said as I thought it over and noticed she was right. I finally nodded as we heard Percy yell "Hey, about time you showed up." he said as he and the others ran towards the elevator and got in it.
