It's hard to be under the influence, but it's harder to cope when you're not aware of it. Set in the year 3247 C.E., where technology is supreme and unity is the only option, how far can you toe the line between reality and your perceptions? Who's the puppet master behind the scenes when you don't know you're being strung up. And what does it feel like being drugged when it's hidden from you?
*************************************************************************************************
Featuring Primordial!Percy.

Rated M because of dark themes in future chapters.

WARNING! There will be some very dark themes in this story past the first chapter. Please be aware that you opening the story is at your own discretion and that you are not being forced to stay if something makes you uncomfortable. I promise to post the warnings for each chapter if something comes up but know that your discomfort is your own choice. This story is meant to be discomforting at some points, and events that I'm planning are not always going to be comfortable. You've been warned! Flames are neither accepted nor tolerated!

Final note: this version of the story (separated from the original version on my alternate account on Fanfiction.net), is purely experimental. These chapters are the final versions of this story, and will not be altered. If anyone wants to help me write, just hit me up in the chat.

Saving a Hero by smthunique

((((COMPLETED)))) Percy Jackson is depressed and has succumbed to self destructive ways to release his frustration. Nobody notices a thing until Nico gets wind of his former crush drifting farther and farther away. Percy suddenly has new feelings for someone new, and he gets rejected by someone, but not who he thinks. He gets a quest and has to pick one other person from camp to go with him to rescue a friend. Percy gets cursed along the way and has to make it back to Camp to save a life. This story is about Percy self harming, and Nico helping him, there are mentions of dizziness, the feeling of starving, graphic self harm/injuries, blood, graphic thoughts of a person with depression, and probably something like psychological horror. If any of that makes you uncomfortable, don't read!!! I don't think I'm going to get any backlash for anything but if you comment, I'm probably not going to answer you! To the people who leave nice comments, I do read all of them and it is appreciated! this is my first published work, I just wanted to add something to this cool community and maybe live a little vicariously through the characters. So if any of this resonates with you, awesome, you're NEVER alone!!!! If your disgusted for whatever reason, GO READ SOMETHING ELSE, I don't want to hear you!! This story is also on Archive of Our Own. Its called Saving A Hero, enjoy! ((My first fanfiction, sorry if it's not that good!!))

Demigod Diaries: The Mad Usurper by gerbre

A few years after the war with Gaea, the demigods face another series of problems. A new wave of maleficence headed by someone only known as the "Mad Usurper" is coming for the gods and demigods. In addition to that, their personal problems are also in the way. Will the heroes be able to resolve their problems and stop the Mad Usurper? How will the succeeding events affect Olympus and their fellow demigods? All persons, monsters, gods or demigods living or dead in this fanfic is purely fictitious...or are they? Any event/s about to happen or happened before is/are purely coincidental. This is a fanfic of PJO and Heroes of Olympus in case you're wondering. FOREWORD: The comment section is always open if there are suggestions about the writing style, threats, bashing, reactions, etc. My co-editors are Keira_Viresse and enigmaticyouniverse. Take time to read their amazing works too. Enjoy reading!

Blessing of the gods by dutch_daydreamer

Ever since Percy went on the quest with Frank and Hazel, he has been hearing her whispering in his mind. Gaea keeps haunting him in his dreams. Telling him things during battle. Slowly taking over his mind. Percy fears that once they arive in Greece she will try to take control of him. Will he be strong enough to resist? Or will he be consumed by the darkness Gaea brings, and destroy camp and the demigods in the process? Are the gods willing to help their children during battle, or are they all alone? ---------- COMPLETED ! I do not own the characters or the idea of Percy Jackson. I did come up with this different ending of the original blood of olympus. ! First fan-fic I have ever decided to share 💙 #23 percabeth (16-10-19)

Percabeth fluff by TheBeastsLibrary

Just a bunch of random Percabeth! One shots, fluff, AU's, meet percabeth. Plenty of mature content too. The first few chapters are a little cringy as they were the first ones I ever published but I promise they get better after a few! Most of the one-shots don't coincide with others unless otherwise specified! Highest ranking- #6 in Percabeth, #1 in Annabeth, #1 in Percbethfanfiction

Percy In Tartarus by Echoely

What if Percy had fallen into Tartarus alone? Apparently, a whole lot of shit. * Down in Tartarus, it's the Greek version of hell. Percy experiences the hardest days of his life - and that's saying something - as he attempts to find his way to the Doors of Death. It's his only option if he wants to make it out of this alive. At least he has Small Bob, though. The best fucking awesome cat ever. * "No matter how much he tried, he couldn't get the stain of Tartarus off his skin." * Started November 2017. Finished March 2018. *THIS STORY IS UNDER EDITING* *Due to the edits, chapter names and numbers may not line up, and some story details may be out of place. The story is not being edited in chronological order. I don't have a timeline for when edits will be finished.

Legend Of Perseus: The Missing Bolt (Completed) by Pureblood-King

When we finally got peace and humanity was doing 100 times better, some idiot decided to start the 3rd World War. The entire world became a battlefield, and it was everyone against everyone. I went from a college kid to a science project of the government. I was made into the perfect soldier, and yet after all I did for them, they killed me.. though that was not where my story ended, it was more like it began the moment that bullet killed me. Three Gods, four wishes, a new life, and some crazy abilities. This is my legend, the legend of Perseus. This story is an inspiration from several different shows, books, manwha's, and anime, so Credit goes to where it is deserved.

The Time-turner Chronicles by Iwantapinkporsche

After Achieving everything you have ever want... The same time realizing that life was full of mistakes and regrets... " I am not afraid of making mistakes. But some mistakes were those that I could afford But there are some that I couldn't " Percy is granted one wish by Chaos herself. His only wish is to have his friends back. There's only one way Chaos can full-fill his wish and that is by sending him back in time to do everything again. . . . I don't own Percy Jackson or anything related to him. All I own are the plotlines and the Original Characters. I'm kinda writing this story in a different style than usual. It's gonna not be heavy on description and vocabulary but more like a plot vomit. I honestly am pretty confused myself and some parts make not make a lot of sense. This story is basically how my bff talks and is dedicated to her for introducing me to the mighty world of Wattled. Anyways hope you have a good read.I hope you leave a lot of comments and enjoyed it as much I did while writing it.

$The Royal Secret {DISCONTINUED} by fictional_fanatic2$

***guys. i wrote this when i was 14 at the height of COVID-19. proceed w caution*** Queen Sally is shocked when instead of one heir, she has twin boys. Unfortunately, ancient law states that the royal family can only have one male offspring, otherwise a duel to the death has to be held. King Poseidon only knows about his first born, Prince Triton, while Percy lives in solitude as a spitting image of his father, locked away in the Northern Tower. Annabeth has always lived in the palace with her mother, Athena Chase, the Kings most trusted advisor. She has always been a naturally curious person, but has never thought twice of what could be in the Northern Tower. That is, until Aphrodite McLean and her daughter Piper are hired to prepare for Prince Triton's wedding and crowning. Turns out Piper is curious and very persuasive. What will happen when Annabeth starts poking around the Northern Tower? Read to find out! There will be lots of twists and turns, but this is my first story, so please be patient if I mess up. All character rights go to Uncle Rick!!! The plot is mine, but none of the PJO/HOO characters are mine. Also, cover credits to @Aussie_Pjo_Lover, thank you!!

A Storms Match | Luke Castellan by Forever2006K

"Oh would you shut up!" Pandora yelled at the boy across from her. "Or what? What are you going to do? That witchy shit you love to do or maybe splash me?!" Luke laughed sharply as he started towards Pandora. She shook her head as a small gasp left her lips as her back hit the wall, "looks like you've ran out of places to go Crescent" he said tauntingly as she looked away from him. He lightly pulled her head back to look at him as he gave a wicked smile as he leaned in to whisper in her ear, "you may be the daughter of Poseidon but your mine now" he whispered sending a shiver down her spine as they held eye contact. Pandora Nightgood wasn't like your normal demigod, having a mortal and immortal parent. No, she had a Nereid for a mother and Poseidon as her father. A story that has repeated throughout the centuries but nothing came of it until Pandora was born. He fled the first chance he got as he was reminded of the oath he had broken for the first time since the oath was made back at the end of World War 2. But like Pandora's box nothing stays a mistry for long. The now 17 year old has been at Camp Half Blood for 9 years as she tries to grapple with her powers she was given and struggles to find some sort of normality within her hectic life, but what happens when a boy named Percy Jackson stumbles into her life? Will he affect her life in more ways than one? And how will he affect the relationships she's worked so hard to build. TW: strong themes in adultery, mental illness (depression), trauma and strong language Luke Castellan x Fem Oc I do not own Percy Jackson or any of its characters, I only own my oc's and their plots and actions.
