Author- Kay, so here's the deal, this book is obviously gonna have fight scenes of else it would be boring and not very Percy Jacksonish and I'm just wondering if ya'll want... 

option 1. fully written out fight scenes

OR

option 2. gif fighting scenes with some words

I can honestly do and are fine with any so... just let me know, kay? Just vote by commenting on the side of the option.

Nico- Woah, woah, woah. Hold up, were you ACTUALLY serious for once?

Author- Says the not-actually-scary, emotionless boy.

Nico- *fumes*

Author- *sticks tongue out at him like the mature, responsible teenager she is* Now the chapter because I'm a total Angel who didn't just now remember I needed to write it... 😇



Percy Jackson P.O.V. (I like writing in his pov, have you noticed?)

I wake up again, with my head throbbing. Again. Yay for headaches! Ah, sarcasm, you just gotta love it. Also... DEAD TIRED. So like the dead tired person I am, I try going back to sleep.

...

It doesn't work.

Hades.

So tired...

But I can't go to sleep. I literally am INCAPABLE of sleeping. What in Hades is up with that? Seriously?!? I'm sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeepy, let me sleeeeeeeeeeeeep.

...

And, you know, just as an afterthought to my inner mind rant, ... where am I?

Seeing darkness I fear the worst-

Wait...

Oh, I'm such a seaweed brain, it's all dark because... MY EYES ARE STILL CLOSED!

So I crack my eyes open slightly before slamming them closed back again as light stings my eyes shooting pain throughout my head as well.

 "Gods, oooooooooowwwwww that huuuuurts..." I murmur as just lay there. .. wherever I am. Knowing that if I move I'll probably be in for a world of pain, I shoot straight up into a sitting position while opening my eyes quickly. Sure enough pain follows only seconds later sending daggers through my head and blinding light in my eyes.

 "WOAH, you're alive?" A female voice asks as I continue to squint and blink, "I thought for certain you were dead and Nagisa and Karma were just playing a trick in us!" Slowly my eyes begin to adjust to the light until I can finally see the girl talking to me clearly. She has long blonde hair, blue eyes, and is wearing a kind of school uniform.

 "Who are you? Where am I?" I ask tiredly to the girl. Looking around I notice that I'm in a wooden room with a sliding door and a window above me. At the moment I am on a mattress on the floor. Okaay...

 "Oh! I'm  Nakamura Rio, it's nice to meet you! Right now we are in my classroom, all of my peers are outside doing practice while I was assigned to watch you. You are?" She explains then asks. I nod slowly working hard to ignore the part where she was WATCHING ME SLEEP.

"I'm Perceus Jackson but call me Percy, it's a pleasure to meet you, Naku... mura?" I try. She shakes her head.

 "My name's NakAmura Rio but you can just call me Rio I guess, if it's easier." Rio explains. I just nod not entirely making sense of why she's using her last name but whatever, " And dang! Percy was it?" I nod, "Those are some hella bags under your eyes you know?"

"Yeah, I've unable to ACTUALLY get some rest in... uh, four days or something?" I say yawning and rubbing my eyes, "Awesome thing is, right now, apparently I am literally UNABLE to sleep for some reason so... I'll just deal with it." I explain as I slowly stand up. Once standing I proceed to do some simple stretchs. The splits, a few pushups (around 50), and a few curl ups (also 50). Rio watchs me do this eyebrows slightly raised.

 "I thought you said you were dead tired?" She asks.

 "Oh, I am," I say, "I just needed to stretch a little, that's all." Rio's eyebrow begins to rise.

 "So wait... that was a... 'little stretch'? Then what's a workout for you?" She asks. I consider.

 "Well on normal days (a.k.a. monsters trying to kill you days) I'd say a good 20 something mile run, a few thousand pushups, curl ups, jumping jacks, ect., and wrap it all up with some yoga. My friend s insisted we end workouts with the so that's what I usually do." I explain. She, meanwhile, just states at me in shock.

"How are you still living? If you do that kinda stuff, why are you so slim and light? I mean, Karma carried you halfway up the mountain without breaking a sweat which means you didn't add much more weight than usual so you must be PRETTY light."

"Eh? Let me just check... oh." I look down at myself then groan. Turns out that little thing Aphrodite did to me? It was a blessing. So now I am like Piper. Perfect body, light weight, perfect skin, and apparently still bags under my eyes. Yay, not. Seriously Aphridite?! Seriously?!? To Rio I say, "Oh don't worry about ut. I admit I'm not usually like this but, I'm not hurt or anything. I just happen to be (for now) really light and slim." I smile a sleepy smile and she grins.

 "Okay, now that you're awake... come on to meet everyone!" Rio declares grabbing my right wrist and pulling my out the sliding door. As our feet pound on the wooden floor, I look down at my clothes tearing the worse. To my surprise, it isn't as bad as I feared. I'm in in a gray turtleneck long sleeved t-shirt with a big black sweatshirt over it. On the bottom I'm wearing light blue jeans and no shoes. Around my neck still hangs my camp necklace and the right pocket of my sweatshirt holds Riptide. I begin yawning as Rio run s co evidently towards our destination until finally she comes to a stop outside a door. Opening it, a rush of air blast my face and I welcome it.

Still grasping my wrist, Rio pulls me out of the doorway and out into the grass towards a crowd of students. Fun.
