The Teens of Olympus

Home

Annabeths POV-
I woke up early the next morning, at around 5:30. Still 1 1/2 hours till the whole camp was woken up. We didn't know what we were going to do with the Olympians, Chiron didn't believe us, and half of The Olympians were prone to secret spilling! I groaned loudly, almost waking some other campers. Quietly leaving my bunk, I grabbed some clothes and went into the bathroom to shower and change. After I finished changing, I put my hair into two french braids, and left the cabin. I was wearing jean shorts, a white and gray striped shirt, and a gray jacket. The early morning was one of my favorite times at Camp Half-Blood. The sun was already out, but still low in the sky, and the sunrise hadn't escaped us yet. I decided to take a walk around the canoe lake. I remembered when Travis and Conner Stoll first arrived.
They had come right up to me, while I was sitting on a log, and said,
  "Stoll. Travis and Conner Stoll." But in a super fake deep voice. They do that sometimes, come up to me and say,
   "Stoll, Travis and Conner Stoll." And like the first day, I always answer with
"I'm Annabeth. And I'll judo flip you if you hurt me or my friends."
I think the real reason I'm scared that this won't work is that we could be stuck as gods forever, with no experience and the power to destroy an entire continent with one argument. And than I could lose my home. Where I grew up, met my closest friends, learned my fatal flaw, have had my happiest memories, my worst days, my highs and lows. I met my boyfriend here, and my siblings. This is my home. And knowing I could destroy it with a snap of my fingers scares me. Sighing, I stood up from where I had stopped and sat on a patch of grass beneath a tree, and headed back towards the cabins. As it was 6:15 now, campers were stirring. I heard the sound of a piano and violin playing a sweet morning sound from Apollo's cabin, the smell of perfume and wildflowers strongly mixing between the Aphrodite and Demeter's cabins, and saw the shape, size and color from Hecate's cabin began to shift as their campers woke up, the Mist bending to their will. Usually it only changed slightly, but some days were more extravagant than others. This is what I was afraid to lose. I decided to stop by Percy's cabin to say hello and good morning.
"Knock knock!" I cried, leaning up against the cabin door. Percy sat straight up. He was wearing his Nemo onesie, a joke gift from Leo.
"Hey Wise Girl." He said, smiling and getting out of bed to give me a hug.
"Hey Seaweed Brain! Ready for breakfast?" I asked, rolling up the sleeves of my gray jacket.
"Its like 6:45 Annabeth! Breakfast is at 8:00! Why did you wake me up so early?" Percy complained, flopping back down on the bed.
"Couldn't sleep." I shrugged.
"Uh oh. What's wrong?" Percy asked, sitting back up with a frown.
"I didn't say anything!"
"You had your 'I need a plan but can't think of one, this is frustrating face.'" Percy smirked, before going back to a concerned look.
"We have the power to destroy everything we love with a snap! And we can't fix it!" I cried out, throwing my hands up in the air. Maybe it wasn't right for me to get so upset, especially at Percy, but this entire situation was messed up! Percy rubbed my back.
"I'm sorry. We'll think of something. It'll all turn out." He said, hugging me. I sighed. Percy was right.
"And I'm sorry about this, but did you reference Endgame? And Infinity War?" He said, pulling back with his classic trouble maker smile. I rolled my eyes, and shoved him.
"I'm not kidding! Was that on purpose?" He said with a laugh. I gave him a kiss.
"I love you Seaweed Brain."
"Love you too Wise Girl."
A/N- I don't own Percy Jackson! I wish I did.... *sigh* I hope you enjoyed this chapter! I wanted to write more about Annabeths time at camp, and why this was so hard for her. It was super fun to write! Thanks for reading!
