(A/N: The picture ^above^ is an example of what Percy's house looks like. Also, a lot of crap is about to go down so stay with me.)

Annabeth

Manhattan, New York

Present

 I met Luke's girlfriend, Thalia and her brother, Jason's, girlfriend and other friends. 

We meet up at a coffee shop called CJ's every day after school. Apparently it is sponsored by two summer camps for ADHD and Dyslexic kids. We were doing our daily meet up there when someone very unexpected walks in. 

The door dinged and a scrawny kid with all black clothing on walked. The barista glance warily at him as he approached. 

"Dang." Leo said. "And I thought I was scrawny. Man. he's like a skeleton with skin."

"Shut it Leo.", Jason's girlfriend, Piper said. (A/N: Guys, I done messed up. I wrote Leo instead of Piper.)

"Yeah I wanna see what he does.", I said. I saw Leo lean over to Jason and whispered something in his ear. 

The boy just arrived at the counter when Jason stood up. "BLACK SUS!", he shouted. Everyone in CJ's cracked up laughing and I saw Leo slip Jason a ten dollar bill.

The boy turned around and that's when I saw his face. There was black bags under his eyes and his sea green eyes looked dark and stormy.

"Crap.", Luke and I said at the same time. Perseus reached up with a black and blue hand and wiped his eye. Dang was is hands always bruised?

He caught my eye but quickly looked away.

I stood up and approached him. "Hello Perseus." 

He nodded his head as if saying Hello back. It has been a bit weird between the two of us ever since I stormed out on him.

"How are you?", I asked. He looked at me, shock evident on his face. What? Has he never been asked that question before?

He bit his busted lip. Seriously? What is with these injuries?

He then shook his head and bolted out the door. I sighed and sat back down.

"What was that about?" Thalia asked

"Yeah, who was that kid?" Piper asked also.

Luke sighed and shook his head. I bit my lip. "Just someone I used to know." I finally replied.

Luke snorted "Or so she thinks." he retorted. I glared at him. Everyone gave him confused looks so he pressed on. "Annie here thinks that he was a childhood friend." I flinched at being called 'Annie'

I rolled my eyes. "I don't think so. I know so. But I just don't remember who. And I need you all's help."

"So let me get this straight," Leo said. "You want us to spy and this kid and figure out how you know him?"

"Yes." Annabeth sighed.

"Sweet."

Piper snorted "Your forgetting the logic here Leo. Annabeth, you want us to stalk this kid just so you can remember a childhood friend? I'm sorry, but if you don't remember him, then he wasn't important." 

We all stood up from the table and walked out the door.

"I hate to admit it, but Piper's right, Annabeth."

I sighed. I wouldn't stop. No matter the risk. The thought was just nagging me to hard. I won't give up. Because I, Annabeth Chase, never give up. 

Perseus

Streets of Manhattan, New Your City

Present

I heard their whole conversation. And I was scared. Scared that they would get to close and get hurt. I stuffed my cold hands in my pocket. I can't let them get close to me. I can't let them talk to me. I had to avoid them at all costs.

I couldn't get Annabeths grey eyes out of my mind. They were determent and fierce. And if present Annabeth was the same as past Annabeth. Then she wouldn't stop until she figured me out.

 I took out my MP3 player that 'borrowed' from a gas station and plugged my earbuds in. I played Under The Knife by Icon For Hire and nodded my head to the beat. I walked down the streets of Manhattan thinking. I know right? Perseus Jackson is thinking?I actually think a lot thank you very much.

I arrived home late (by one minute) and got my punishment. I spent the night thinking; How will I stop them?

(A/N: I'm sorry if this chapter was boring. I'm not really feeling the story anymore. I might set it out for adoption or just end the story soon. Tell me what you think I should do?)
