Percy Jackson Oneshots

(I swear mammoths could swim)

This is legitimately something I discussed with my sister recently, so I thought that in honor of that, I'd post this fic here. (My dad got sick of us arguing and told us to shut up bc it wasn't important but I'm stubborn and kept telling my sis that she needs to do more research.) (My sister is Annabeth in this case; I'm Percy). And yes, the megalodon is most definitely extinct.

Also, the title is from this one time that I kept arguing that mammoths could swim because I saw it in a textbook illustration once where the meg is swimming after a mammoth. My friends think I'm crazy but I will die on this hill.

Anyway, I hope whoever reads this enjoys it lol

Synopsis: Annabeth and Percy have a debate on whether the megalodon still exists, and neither wants to do actual research.

Carcharocles megalodon.

Meaning "big tooth", is an extinct species of shark that lived approximately 23 to 3.6 million years ago (mya), during the Early Miocene to the Pliocene.[6] It was formerly thought to be a member of the family Lamnidae and a close relative of the great white shark (Carcharodon carcharias). However, it is now classified into the extinct family Otodontidae...

.

Annabeth didn't believe any of that for a second. According to Discovery Channel, there were still speculation of the megalodon existing—and the Discovery Channel was never wrong, in her humble opinion.

So she quickly closed the Wikipedia page and opened her email.

Percy, you don't know if the megalodon is still extinct, because we've only discovered about 1% of the ocean or something. What are the chances that the megalodon is still living in the depths? Besides, the ocean is very very deep. So deep that even you might be crushed from the pressure, we don't know.

And to counter your argument about the shark being big enough to notice, I think that it could have evolved to be able to survive deep underwater, just like I stated before. It could have found some other sea creature to eat. There are so many species undiscovered, anyway.

And yes, there have been sightings. People swear to have seen something similar to a meg. Just look it up, I swear it's real.

Sincerely,

Annabeth.

What the fuxk not tru. Dont you think mory people wulde inotice? Im not serching up stuff that i now never hapend. Im The sun of poseidon for gods sake. And dislecic. Sorry Im too lazy to corect this.

Like why would ther b sitings if you say that it lives deep undesater? Do you now how dose sea creatures live? They cant see the sun im pretty sure.

Anyway those "sightings" be shady so i dont tink so.

Sincerky,

Percy.

Percy, just because you're the son of Poseidon doesn't mean you know everything about the sea. No one knows except maybe your dad.

It could be like the mist where it covers them up so no one can tell if they're real. That's why there could be such rare sightings. Again, you don't fucking know and it could be evolved for anything. Just because their main source of food disappeared doesn't mean that the sharks didn't decide to eat something else. It's called survival of the fittest and natural selection.
